chapter one


As I did triple flips on the tight rope, I could feel sweat all over me. Not from the Ropes, but my fans, I am the main event here at LaFrumps great circus. I can hold me own weight, do tricks on not only the tight rope, but the trapeze to. but i don't do it on my own, I use magic, Yes magic. I'm a Nymph, or in other words a Witch. My fans called me Flexible Florence, best stage name I ever heard. As I walked all the way to the other side of the rope, my fans were going wild. But when I attached myself to the trapeze, they went wild standing ovation. "Well, thats our show folks, see us next month were were on tour!" LaFrump said. people started to moan, I can't believe it, they love me.
outside the tent, I grabbed my box of cigarettes and started to blow it up. what I can't spoke at seventeen, its legal in louisiana, for now. I was suddenly interrupted by blake, he was my trapeze partner. "Hey miss thang." he said taking a wooden crate and sitting next to me. I smiled. "what do you want blake?" I asked. He held out his hand for a cigarette. I pulled out my box and gave it to him. He was only two years older than me. These are bad for your lungs you shouldn't smoke." he said. His kentucky accent was bold. I advise you to let me do what I want if you dont wanna fall to the ground on the next act." I said. I would always make jokes about not catching him on the trapeze act. "Ok, Ok, little miss magic." He was the first one I told about my witch abilities. Everybody else just guessed.
Why are you still wearing that, it's like fifty degrees out here." he said scanning my circus out fix, i had a read and white tank top that showed some of my cleavage with white tights. whyare you worrying about it kentucky boy." I said mocking his accent. he shook his head. So fiesty, I like it." He said. I put my cigarette in my mouth. "so, what are you gonna do next month after the show." I asked. He looked up at me. "What do you mean, Im still gonna preform with Frumps why?" he asked. "Come on, don't you want more than just some silly cicus life?" I asked. He shrugged. "I've been with LaFrumps since I ran away, He's been like a second father to me florence, I just can't leave him out of the blue." he said. "Yeah, me to, but don't you wanna be with your louisiana people?" I said. He stood up, Ok, first of all, I came from Kentucky, not louisiana." we were standing chest by chest. I blew my cigarette smoke in his face. "Whats the differance?" I said. He chuckled. "Even if you did leave, where would you go?" he asked. I shrugged. "Maybe Tahetti, china, I heard they got NASCAR." I joked. he smiled. So your minds made up then?" he asked. I nodded. Im gonna run it by boss man tomorrow." I said. He nodded. Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then." he kissed my cheek and went back inside. I've had a crush on Blacke ever since I was thirteen, but what was the use, he was dedicated to circus, not love.
*************************************************************************************************

Later that night, we were all loading our crates and suit-cases into the train. Me and my roommate cathey, were just finishing up. "So," she said as she put her last bag in. What?" I asked. "Blake told me about next month after the show, is it true?" she asked. Even thought she was fifteen she deserved to know. "Um, yeah it is." I said Blake and his big mouth. "Why?" she asked. she looked at the ground. "Well, I'm seventeen now, I want more than just a circus life, don't you?" I asked. "but the circus is my life." Cathey said as she sat on a empty box. I sat next to her. Come on Cathey, your telling me that you don't wanna real life, outside of LaFrumps?" I asked her. Yeah, but Im not just gonna abandon Them, they're my family, where would I be with out them." she said. "OK, so im guessing you don't want me to go." I said. she shook her head. "Your our main event, your the reason why LaFrumps is still around without you, we're done for." she said. I exhaled. was I really ready for the world. I've had this plan since I was thirteen, and for it to be coming all together, I couldn't pass that up.
Look, Cathey, Your not the only one who's feeling this way, I mean I'll drop by time to time but I wanna start a life of my own ok." she nodded.

On the Train, everybody was now talking about me. I could tell by the way they exchanged faces. I stood up, only to speak my mind. "Ok guys, I know the word has gone around about me, because somebody has a big mouth..." I looked at Blake who raise his hand. "I'm the somebody." he said. I rolled my eyes and a couple of kids laughed. "But that doesn't mean we still wont be in touch." I said. But Florence, Don't you like us anymore?" one of the adrenaline twins asked. of course I do, I love all of you the same." I said. "Really?" I heard Cathey say as she toyed with a key chain shaped like a Aries sign. I looked at her with a sorry face. "Well it's gonna be hard not living with a little magic around." One of the older boys Toby said. I smiled. well still, you shouldn't leave, we'll miss you, especially me." Blake said. the twins giggled and some of the boys oohed. "Boy please." I said. He smiled.
