ME AND HIM ✔️

Pt. 17

Nadine's POV

I STILL haven't gotten any sleep in the past 24 hours.

I feel like I'm going crazy.

We still have at least 34 more hours left on this plane. We left around the afternoon, and the time is currently 5:00 am.

The bowl of strawberries I had ordered earlier are now empty, only leaving the green stems and leaves scattered in it.

I know this is bad idea, but I could really go for some coffee right now. It's just, my problem isn't trying to stay awake. I need sleep. Desperately.

I look around me. Everyone is sleeping. Kaylee moved away from Diego and Aniyah, so that she could sprawl out on 3 different seats. Aniyah and Diego, sleep sitting up, Diego resting his head on his hand. And then Rue and Alex. Alex rest his head on Rue's shoulder. The headphones he was wearing earlier, have fallen off, so they are now resting on his neck. Rue shifts a few times. She pushes Alex's head off her shoulder, so that she could lay her head the opposite way from him.

Her eyes flutter open. She looks around the room until her gaze falls on me. I think it takes her a few moments before she realizes that it is me.

"Hey," she whispers with a soft, raspy, morning voice.

"Hey," I reply. She blinks, her eyelashes going up and down.

"How much longer till we get there?" She asks, referring to Russia.

I shrug, "a few dozen hours."

She lets out a loud sigh, "fuckkkk. I don't think I can wait that long."

Rue's POV

It may not have been the best sleep I've gotten, but at least I'm not tired anymore.

I look down at my watch and see the time.
Exactly 10:00 am.

I talked with Nadine for a little bit. Only about random things though. He said that I look and act tipsy when I'm half awake. I don't blame him though.

I look up to see Diego and Aniyah awake.
Kaylee and Alex were still sleeping.

Aniyah and Diego were watching something on Diego's phone together, as they were both looking intensely at the screen.

I stood up and went to the bathroom.
Clothes were scattered in here as I stepped over them. I didn't need to use the bathroom, but I do need to brush my teeth. I take out my toiletries bag and grab my toothbrush, face scrub, and my Medicine.

I do everything I need to do before leaving and returning back to my seat.

At this point, everyone was awake, even Alex which weirdly surprised me. Motherfucker is always sleeping in till at least 3 in the afternoon.

"Ok listen up" Nadines voice erupted in the room, filling the silence,"We still have 23 hours left on this plane before we arrive in Russia. So we-" Nadine pulls a duffle bag out from under the table,"Are going to be prepared."

Nadine opens the duffle bag, revealing guns, knives, etc.

"Right when we get to Russia, Ivan, the leader of their mafia, will be at one of my casinos. We are going attend as well."

I hate this idea, I hate this plan, I hate this life.
