Alex POV

After a grueling four hour flight, we finally land in Chicago.

"See Sawyer, momma!!"

I smile at Charlie, "Yeah, baby!"

I look over and see Serv passed out. I then look to see Taylor, who tagged along early, also passed out.

"Serv. Taylor. Wake up." I say.

I watch as they both slowly wake up, "We here, babe?" Serv asks.

"Yup, everybody up so we can get out of here."

We get off of the plane and through the airport to our rental car and I let out a breath.

"Did you sleep at all on the flight?" Serv asks me.

I shake my head, "No, every time I tried, Charlie wanted a snack." I smile.

"Maybe Sawyer will want a nap with you." He says.

I sigh, "I can't believe she was up from like 2-430."

"Bree said she was just wound up?" Serv asks me.

"Yeah just like over-stimulated, anxious. I'm not sure. She woke up from a nightmare, but then just couldn't fall back asleep." I say.

"Weird, she's never like that." He says.

"Maybe because she didn't have one of us to cuddle with." I say.

"She had her weighted blanket though, that normally helps?" He asks.

"I'm not sure babe. We will sort it out. She's going to be happy to see us." I say.

We continue you driving until we hit the hotel and get out of the car.

I grab Charlie's hand and start walking to the check in when Charlie rips her hand away from me and takes off. "CHARLIE!" I yell.

"SAWYER!" She squeals and I look around seeing Sawyer with her arms out, "Hi Charlie!"

I let out a breath and watch as Charlie jumps into Sawyer's arms and smile.

Serv and Taylor walk up to me, "Oh sure, we're all chopped liver." Taylor says.

"When it comes to Charlie? Yeah. We are. Did you check in?" I ask.

"YEEEES MOMMMM." Taylor dramatically says.

"Hi Taylor!" Sawyer says.

"Hi kid!" Taylor holds her hand up for a high five.

"Hey pops!" She hugs Serv.

"And last, but not least, hi momma!" She says and I squeeze her tight.

"Hi baby. You good?" I ask.

"Yeah. I'm good. We just got done training and I megged Carla and it was great." She rambles.

I laugh, "That's great baby, where's Bree?"

She points, "Holding Mav for me." I notice she's wearing her vest and has weights on her ankles. 'She must be really riled up.'

I see Bree holding Maverick and she starts to walk over.

"Hey Bree!" I say and take Maverick from her.

"Hey! How was the flight?"

"Eh. I've had better. Can we talk later?" I ask.

"Absolutely. Go enjoy some family time and then we will talk. She knows her itinerary, isn't that right, Sawyer?" She says.

"Yup! It's also in my phone." Sawyer says.

"I smile, well alright then, let's go up to our room to drop our stuff and then to lunch. I made a reservation." I say.
