A Plane Ride

Kristen POV:

Friday

We left the house not too long ago, and we were on our way to go get Sade and Hayden.

"Momma where are we going?" April asked, popping her head out between Sierra and I.

"We're gonna go meet my brothers and sisters. Is that okay with you?" Sierra responded, turning around to look at her.

"You have brothers andddd sisters? Momma can I have brothers and sisters?" April swooned.

"Well that's not something I can just do. I'd need.....help" I responded, trying to make it seem simple.

"Isn't Sierra your girlfriend? Why can't Sierra help you?" she inquired, giving me a questioning look.

Staring at her little face, I found it hard to even form words, at her last statement.

"I'll help her, don't worry about it" I heard from beside me.

Looking at Sierra, a wide, crooked grin held her face as she took my hand in hers. Feeling my body shiver at the sudden surge of electricity when our hands met, I stared into her chestnut eyes and felt my face heat up.

Smiling even wider, she gave my hand a squeeze before pulling away and focusing on the road, her smile remaining.

Not too long after, we pulled up outside Sade's house and Sierra got out to help them with their bags.

"Dude, you were serious?" Sade asked, climbing into the back and seeing April.

"I thought you were joking about coming with us."

"I wasn't gonna send my girl in alone" I replied, turning to the back and giving her a smile.

"God, you two are ridiculously cute...makes me sick" she gagged, fake vomiting.

Laughing at her, I face forward again and wait for Sierra and Hayden to finish what they're doing.

Getting in shortly after, we ensure everything is secured, before driving off.

When we got to the airport, we all went inside and waited, because Sierra had to get something. As she returned, we followed her lead throughout the airport.

She led us to a boarding area, where there was barely anyone else. As we boarded the plane, the lack of people was explained, as we boarded an empty area.

It's a private jet idiot, your girlfriend's filthy rich.

We all took our seats and buckled in, allowing the plane to take off. Sitting there in some silence, I turned to look at April, who was playing with her fingers and slightly swaying her feet. Resting my hand on hers, she looks up at me slowly, her eyes laced with fear.

"Hey, it's okay" I whispered, leaning down and kissing her head.

"Pssst Apes" we heard from the other side of the jet.

Looking over, we see Sierra, her hand extended, holding a blue bowl.

Taking it from her, Apes opened it to find some of the Lion King cookies Sierra brought for her the day we told her about us. Picking one up, she took a bite, and seemed to immediately relax.

'Thank you' I mouthed to Sierra, who just smiled and winked.

When we were cleared to move around the plane, I stood and observed the interior of the jet. There were just about 8 seats, and they were all grouped in 4. Then there were carvings along the walls, some just pattern designs, others were names. One in particular, caught my eye.
