The Perry Brothers - Ch. 9

Terri and Terry, 16 years old
Screaming, laughing, music, and the smell of popcorn and cotton candy. Terry, Emily and Terri are in a funfair. Emily was the one with the idea and Terri got really exited about it, but there was a lot of debating to get Terry to come. They've been in the maze, the fun house, and the bumber cars. It's getting quite late already. Emily's eyes light up. "Hey, guys, guys, guys! A rollercoaster. Let's go there!" "Yeah! I've never been in one. Let's do that!" "Woah, woah, woah. Terri! No way." "Oh, come on! Just this once." "You get on it once, you want to get on it again. Not gonna do that." Terri looks into his brother's eye with his "puppy dog eye". Terry looks back at him. He just can't say no. "Ugh... Fiiine. I'm gonna regret this."

   The line is long. Terry is feeling confident. It won't be that bad, won't it? They get closer little by little. Now Emily and the brothers can just about see the carts going and coming back. "Uh, maybe we should go back." "No way, Terry! We already got this far, we're not going back." Terry takes a deep breath. It'll be fine. Terry can now see people going off in the carts. "Oooooh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! I can't. Not doing it. NO!" Emily goes to Terry's side. "Don't worry. These have been tested a million times and people go here for fun. It's gonna be fine, okay?" Terry tries to calm down. They get closer and closer. They're already the next ones to go. "Ooooooooh god! Terri, I can't do this. I can't! I'm sorry, I can't." "Terry. There's no going back. You told me, you'll come. We're already next and we're not going back." Terry panics slightly. It'll be fine. People go here for fun. The cart comes and Emily, Terri and Terry gets seated. "It's gonna be fine. It's gonna be fine. It's gonna be... fun. Right?" Terry grabs the restraints tightly and continues his attempt of calming down. Suddenly the ride starts going slowly and Terry stops in horror.

   The ride starts with an upphill. Terry really starts panicing. He's talking to himself: "Maybe I could scream and tell them to stop the ride... I could slide away from these restraints and jump onto that safety staircase. Yeah." Terri sees his brother's worry. "Hey, it's gonna be fine. After this we can go do whatever you want. Just, look at the view." Terry looks over the funfair and quickly closes his eye turns back. "Maaaybe not." Finally the uphill comes to an end and there about to go down. For the small while there up Terry opens his eye and looks down. "I wanna go home." He quickly grabs Terri's hand before they drop. Terri is moved and smiles at him, but starts laughing at the screaming Terry. "Come on! Open your eye! It's fun!" "Shut up, shut up, shut UP! You're making me more scared!" Terri starts laughing even more. "How can it ma-" "I said, shut up!" Terry screams through out the whole ride. Other screaming people, the wind and the noise of the roller coaster make some of Terry's words dissapear: "Terri Matthew Perry, I f... hate you, you son of a-" The cart stops and interrupts him. "Well, Terry Mathew Perry, in that case, so are you and the ride's over." Emily and Terri walk the shaking Terry to the nearest bench.
