The Lies Between Us

20 – What if

48 Hours Earlier

Tait's mind wanders as his eyes see nothing but clouds. He was up a million miles in the air excited to be back. He's already pictured it in his mind the things she might say and the reactions he'll get from her.

He thought he's got this in the bag. He was already composing the words he'll say to her in case they both ran into each other.

One option is to ask her out on a "blind date." If she won't go then he'll ask Jim and Rian to set them up together...

Second, he'll keep sending her lovely notes through the lilies that will end up revealing himself to her in a romantic way.

Tait bit his lip at the thought. It was such a cheesy thing to do but he was more interested to see her lovely reaction when she finds out it's him.

And third...

If none of those things work, he'll force one of his dad's clothing company to hire him as photographer and he'll get her as his model.

Third one sounds like a very tedious plan but he's willing to do whatever it takes.

All these plans of him to get her back makes him impatient. The music blasting from his earphones were bringing his head to such creative ideas that he didn't even get to notice the gorgeous Canadian stewardess who was trying her best to get his attention.

Rather, his thoughts were almost always occupied by one girl who was living rent free inside his head.

The tall statuesque flight attendant failed to even have eye contact with him. She was under the impression that the Tait Kingston of Star Avenue was the kind of guy who will sleep with someone like her in his own flight and do nasty things inside the lavatory.

Turns out she was disappointed. Especially when they finally locked eyes, he didn't even look at her for five seconds.

Tait wanted to use the restroom that moment but seeing the thirsty look on the flight attendant's face, he hesitated. He took his time looking at his social media instead, checking out what's trending on twitter.

He sipped on his drink when he saw that Jacey Somers was trending because of Veronica Park's IG post. Not that he was worried about it but he was ready to steal Lisie from the guy even before finding out the truth.

The chamomile tea wasn't enough to calm him down. He knew what's about to come the moment he lands back in L.A.

Then again, the media was indeed notorious. He was right about what's waiting for him in the airport. Besides his ever supporting fans, a group of paparazzi were also present to welcome him. He looked at Nash beside him who acts like his bodyguard since Yul was probably still sleeping.

"I don't have any schedule for this week right?" He asked.

Tait tried to keep a straight face when he saw Nash clenching his jaw. He appreciates him so much that he's starting to believe his manager loves him more than he loves his girlfriend.

"You better not fuck up. Again."

Tait scratched his head cringing at the thought of letting everyone down. "I'm sure I'll do perfectly on the promotions but I'm not so sure about the girl." He admitted.

"TAIT ARE YOU BACK WITH YANA?" A wild paparazzi was crowding his way shoving a camera to his face.

Tait answered by glowering at him.
