The Paris Trap

Vee

"THORN HURRY YOUR ASS UP OR WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE FOR THE FLIGHT!"
I yelled fury engraved deeply within my voice...
"OKAY OKAY! I'M COMING YOUR MAJESTY!"
He yelled back, obviously annoyed with me. Well, it'll be HIS fault if we are late...
"Maybe we should have left you with Eagle..."
I mumble to myself but, OF COURSE, HE HAD TO HEAR ME!
"EXCUSE ME?! I THOUGHT WE AGREED WE WOULD SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT THAT VEE!"
He yelled at me his voice at full volume, I held my hands up and said innocently,
"Oh, I'm so sorry! Did I HURT YOUR STUPID FEELINGS?!"
He merely glared at me, that was usually how our arguments went these days...
He has definitely changed since the whole "Eagle incident"...
I sigh and let him exit the door first so he could go start up the truck.
I put our suitcases in the back seats, it wasn't much we were only staying in Paris for a couple of weeks so we didn't really need much of anything...
I can only imagine how much the other girls are packing. yeesh!
I smiled and got into the passenger's seat buckling my seatbelt, indicating I was ready to leave...
The truck lurched forward with a start but as we moved on it ran smoothly like the wind against the grass.
I turned on the DVD Player and set the music to a level that wouldn't harm either of our ears...
I smile at Thorn and he merely sighs and keeps his eyes on the road.
I huff and fall back into my seat with a satisfying thump and close my eyes, drifting into a light snooze...

45 MINUTES LATER...

I woke up with a start as the truck purred to a gentle stop Thorn shut it off and we headed out towards the airport in a hurry, practically dragging our luggage behind us.
We nearly ran into the rest of the group as we skidded to a stop behind them,
"There you guys are, our plane is leaving in two minutes!"
Luna said startled yet annoyed.
Suddenly, Bella piped in,
"Well then let's get our asses in gear and FUCKING RUN!"
We all began running towards gate 13, nearly running into several people in the process...
Well except Bella, she practically shoved people out of our way while yelling at them,
"ALRIGHT PEOPLE GET OUT OF OUR FUCKING WAY!"
I could see Sparrow trying his best to hold back his laughter but he was failing quite miserably at it if I don't say so myself.
We all skidded to a stop, everyone running into each other, making Bella, who was at the front being our bulldozer, stumble and nearly fall flat on her face.
The lady at the gate practically jumped three feet into the air as we all stumbled to a halt in front of her.
Her eyes were wider than full moons.
"Excuse me but has the plane taken off yet?"
I asked politely but you could definitely hear the tinge of worry in my tone.
The lady smiled and said,
"No, you just made it! Oh and by the way-"
Bella shoved her way past her and handed her her ticket for the flight saying,
"Okay lady we got a flight to catch, GOODBYE!!!" 
She just looked disgusted at the fact Bella showed such disrespect towards her.
"I'm sorry about my friend, but she's right we have a flight to catch..."
I waved goodbye to her as I handed my ticket over.
She started talking quickly,
"But wait! You must be careful an awful dise-"
I couldn't hear the rest for Thorn had quite rudely interrupted her and said,
"Look lady, we don't care! Take our tickets so we can go!"
She shut her lips after that and grumpily took our tickets as we all hurried down the corridor towards the airplane.
We made it just in time for they were about to close the doorway, THANK GOODNESS WE MADE IT!
We all quickly place our luggage in the compartments above us then we all collapsed with exhaustion into our seats...
The seatbelt light turned on above us and the captain began speaking into his microphone, a calm collected voice if you ask me,
"Hello ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking, please stay in your seats and buckle up to prepare for lift-off..."
I quickly buckled my seatbelt and everyone else inside the plane did the same...
Wait a minute...
There was no one else on the plane except Thorn, Sparrow, Bella, Flare, Luna, and I...
Well, where we were sitting at least this wasn't exactly first class it was more like the middle class.
So there are probably people on the other levels of the plane such as the captain's quarters, first-class, etc.
I shook off the odd feeling I had and turned to Thorn smiling cheerfully and said,
"We barely made it, but hey, I really think that this trip will be quite fun!" He only shrugged his shoulders at this obviously too tired and annoyed to say anything.
Luna nods her agreement alongside Flare as she states, "When we get there I will definitely be face timing my mother because you ALL know how she is absolutely obsessed with Paris"
She smiles at me and I smile back warmly.
Bella hangs her arm over the seat from behind me and I see her face looming up over top of me and she asks calmly (which is quite rare-),
"Well, what are we even gonna do when we get there?"
I think about this for a second but then smile mischievously and say cockily,
"Get our luggage first. Like DUH!"
Sparrow just laughs at this while Bella rolls her eyes at me smiling.
Luna suddenly chimes in saying pointedly,
"ACTUALLY! We would be getting up and off the plane and THEN, we would get our luggage!"
At this Flare laughs and says,
"Ha nice one!"
I sigh and look at Luna and say drastically,
"You know what I meant Luna! So don't get all 'actually' with me!"
She only laughs at this and says in her 'I win this conversation' tone, "Sure sure whatever you say, Vee!"
Suddenly the plane lurches forward and I jump in my seat, Sparrow looks at me a little concerned and asks,
"Vee you afraid of flying or something?..."
I look at him and nod and say stuttering a little,
"Y-Yeah kind of... J-Just haven't been in an airplane since I was like four years old..." I chuckle a little at this and add more cheerfully, "I know it's kind of dumb heh..."
Bella only smiles at me and says, attempting to reassure me,
"Well, it's not that bad if you don't think about it! It can't be any worse than Thorn's driving!"
She winks at me at this comment, and Thorn just groans and says,
"I'm not THAT bad at driving! Am I Vee?!"
I laugh and pinch my fingers together and say jokingly,
"Maybe just a little..."
He just jabs me in the ribs with his elbow, not enough to hurt me of course just to let me know that I'm being annoying, and I just laugh at this.
He suddenly flips his cell phone and practically glues his god damn eyeballs to it!
You know what? I've had enough of him and his addiction to his cell phone!
I swiftly take the cell phone from him and say,
"You know what you will not get this back until the end of the trip!" determination was quite clear in my voice.
He only gave me a look that was practically screaming 'what the fuck?!' and he raised his voice slightly full of irritation,
"Excuse me?! THATS MY PHONE!"
I smile at him and say,
"For now it won't be! You will get it back once we return home!"
He tried grabbing the phone from my hand and instead I yelled to Flare,
"FLARE CATCH!"
I quickly threw the cell phone at Flare he caught it easily even though my throwing is awful...
"DUDE GIVE ME BACK MY FUCKING PHONE!"
Thorn yelled at us, I placed my hand on his and said quietly
"Calm down..."
He only looked at me with a glare but sighed and leaned back into his chair with a thud.
I kept my hand grasped in his, he didn't tighten his grip it was actually fairly loose but at least he didn't pull away...
I rested my head on his shoulder and sighed.
Quite quickly I fell asleep, which is surprising since I haven't been sleeping well since grade six,  it felt nice to be enveloped by the soothing, welcoming darkness as it held me in its grasp... Eventually, I was held tight by dreams of the future...
