Falling Again

CHAPTER-ONE

One year later...

"Sam,Baby girl come on we are going to miss our flight, if you don't get your sweet ass moving faster!" Oscar yells.

"Don't get your panties in a bunch, I'm coming!" I yell back while I desperately try to get my suitcase closed.

"Having some trouble there are we?" Oscar asks looking beyond amused in the doorway while I'm spread flat out across my suitcase trying to keep it shut.

"Shut up and get over here and help me. I'll sit on it while you snap it shut." I say blowing the few strands of runaway hairs from my eyes.

"What in the hell did you pack in here anyways?" He says fighting with the suitcase trying to get it closed. "I swear you are becoming more like London every day. And I thought you were supposed to be the sensible one." He mutters under his breath loud enough for me to hear.

"Hey! I've never been to England, and you know they have unpredictable weather there,I had to make sure I brought enough outfits. I'm prepared for every season, you should be proud of me." I say confidently crossing my arms and smiling triumphantly over at Oscar.

Its safe to say I'm not the fashionista of the group, by far that is London and Oscar follows close behind her. I've had to hear from both of them numerous times about my lack of effort in the fashion department or how I never pack enough clothes for different occasions I may encounter on a trip. So here I am for the first time filled with pride that I actually put a lot of thought and effort into my style for this trip. but do I get a "good job Sam!" Or a pat on the back? No. What I get is complaints that I'm taking too long and I've packed too much. I can never make them happy.

"Okay, suitcase is closed are you ready now?" Oscar asks clearly frustrated and out of breath.

"Come on grumpy pants." I say gathering up the rest of my bags and heading out the door. "I'm so happy I decided to bring you on this trip with me." I say sarcastically smiling up at him.

"Oh please baby girl, who else besides me can give you the vacation of a lifetime? You should really be thanking me for coming along with you." He says winking over at me.

It's the truth though I probably should be thanking him. For the past year Oscar and I have been inseparable. Since London has been away traveling so much for work it has been just the two of us most of the time. Poor guy was stuck with me in my darkest days, but eventually He pulled me out of the rut I was in and brought me back to life.

He accompanied me to all the promotional press conferences I had for the movie Falling, just in case Liam decided to change his mind and I needed some emotional support.But just like he had said, he has completely vanished, and not once did he make an appearance or even a call.

I'm ok with it though. I've put Liam in the past and have come to realize I'm worth more and deserve better, no matter how much my heart stilllonging for him. After months of trying to forget him I finally moved on, I've even been on a few dates thanks to Oscar and his never ending match making.

So here we are about to fly to England for two weeks for a little vacation . To say I'm excited would be an understatement. I've wanted to go to England for as long as I could remember. I've always had a fascination with the rich history, the castles and lush greenery it all just seems so romantic and timeless.

"Alright you two bring it in and give me hugs before you leave." London says as she envelopes us both in her arms. "I'm going to miss you guys so much."

"London, you will be joining us at the end of the week." I say quizzically.

"I know but that's five whole days away do you know how quiet this apartment will be?"
