"ELIZABETH!"

Her eyes snap open to the hum of the plane, and the hushed; violent whisper coming from beside her.

"What Finneas?" she groans, resting her eyes closed again within the dark plane.

"Can I rest my legs on you?"

"I don't care." She mumbles, only trying to get some sleep.

"Elizabeth!"

"Jesus Finneas, what?" Her eyes look at him, now clearly awake.

"I can't sleep," he complains.

She sighs, "Do you want me to see if Claudia is done talking to Billie and wants to come back?"

"I don't want to kick you out of your spot."

"Please, the pleasures all mine." She playfully hits his shoulder, taking her pillow and crawling over Finneas to get to the isle of the plane. "I'll see if Claudia will switch with me."

"Sweet, thanks, Liz."

She heads straight up the walkway for Claudia and Billie, figuring that Billie and Claudia would be up for they usually were up all night back at home.

To her surprise, Billie's head leans against the plane window; eyes rested close peacefully. Claudia sits up in her aisle seat; a book in her lap as the overhead light illuminates her spot.
