The Return (De Laurel Trilogy #1)

11

"Flight 213, for Massachusetts, New York please proceed to the boarding gate. I repeat, Flight 213, for Massachusetts, New York please proceed to the boarding gate." The girl in the airport intercom announced ever so cheerily. Geez. It's like four in the morning why does she have to be so lively?

"Olen," I shook my brother's shoulder lightly, making him stir and wake up. "We have to go to the boarding gate. It's time for our flight."

"Okay," With that being said, we all took ahold of our stuff and went to the boarding gate, although, I did ask my brothers to carry my stuff for me.

I was happy when before the flight, Olen said that we don't need bodyguards anymore since my slight fame died down while we were on vacation. Although there are still people asking for pictures here and there, it's not that worse comparing it when we arrived here in Hawaii.

They have been extra nice since my confession yesterday. Although I got a huge pit in my stomach filled, there's still that empty space that is waiting to be filled by something - or rather, someone.

"Liv! Can you take a picture of me by this window?" Oliver asked while fixing his dark, jet black hair. It's almost the same as mine, but, there are a few dry and split ends here and there.

"Yeah, sure." I took out my phone and took a picture of him by the plane window. Looking at the final results, I finally got the reason why he was a model. He was good at any angle. Not as good as me though.

"Hey, Livs." I felt Oliver tap my shoulder, making me wake up from my map. "Food Service is roaming around. Are you hungry? Do you want some food?"

"Okay," I nodded before going through my thoughts for a second to think of the dish that I should order. "I will have some pasta and iced coffee, Lev. Thanks." I smiled.

"Okay," He said before ordering my food and his at the stewardess who happened to pass by at the right time. "She said that it will be ready in 5 minutes or so."

In exactly five minutes, our food arrived and we all ate in silence. I noticed that Olen was in his own world so, I didn't bother him. After eating, I went back to sleep and wake up when I had to fasten my seatbelt for landing.

"Ugh, my babies!" Mom squealed happily as we reached where they were waiting for us, holding a sign that said 'DE LAUREL SIBLINGS'. "I missed you."

"We missed you too, mom." I chuckled as I gave her a tight and warm hug.

"You guys probably have jet lag. Rest once we get some." Dad said before going inside the driver's seat and driving home.

"How was the trip?!" Gigi shouted as I arrived at the RT.

"It was cool, I guess." I yawned, still not over the jet lag since we just arrived last night and we had to wake up early for school.

"Tell me everything!" She squealed ever so loudly, making Nic and Lewis wince.

I told her, including Nic and Lewis everything that happened in the trip. From the swarming paparazzi, to the beach, the party, and me getting drunk. Although I left two tiny details. Jarred and Duke.

"Oh, and here." I took some of the souvenirs that we bought in Hawaii.

"Thank you!" With that, they gave me a super bone-crushing hug.

While recovering from the hug, I got a text from Alexander. I quickly checked it and replied.
