My eyes squinted when the sunset over the clouds burned into my  window. The jet was quiet, only soft snores came throughout the cabin. I smiled over at Troy and Katie who were sleeping, Katie's head on Troy's shoulder. Mike was laying back, his hat covering his face. My eyes everted back to my seating when I saw Austin staring at me. His eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep, or maybe he just woke up. He played with the ring on his hand. It was like he was already thinking about something.

"Good morning". I spoke softly. He didnt say anything. Okay, awkward. I noticed how warm I was, looking down to see that I was holding his hoodie over my body.

"Oh my God, I am so sorry. I must have grabbed it". I lied, not sure how it ended up on me.

"You were shaking in your sleep. I covered you up". He stated. I gave him a smile and handed him the hoodie back. He declined my offer and I wrapped my arms into the arms of the sleeves. He moved a bit, reaching into his back pocket. He grabbed out a pack of cigarettes and his red lighter. He glanced at me, patting the seat next to him. Only issue was his seat was a couch.

"I'm okay". I chirped.

His eyes narrowed, patting the seat again. I cant believe I gave up so easily. I got up, and sat down next to him. He placed the cigarette between his lips, placing his other hand on my thigh.

I see that we're touchy this morning.

He blew the smoke up above him

"Are you allowed to smoke on a plane"? I asked as my eyes connected with his.

"Its my Jet". He smirked.

"Its your dads".

"I bought it for him".

"Show off". I mumbled and he took another hit.

I smiled at his action. I decided against myself and took a small hit off the cigarette, The smoke that filled my lungs made me light headed, with that being my first cigarette in a while. I stood up, needing the bathroom. My lightheadedness causing me to fall forward, his arms instantly wrapping about me. My face was closer to the other chair as his arms wrapped around my bare hip from the shirt moving up.

"Are you starting early princess. At least let me have my coffee first before you fall outta the plane"  he chuckled. I stood up, his arms still around me.

"I need the restroom". I chuckled.

He let go of me, but walked closely behind to make sure I didnt fall. I passed my friends, still asleep. I cant have them waking up to this. I got into the bathroom and my face spoke for me. Holy hell. I quickly used the toilet, and washed my hands, then using the water to wipe my face. I ran my fingers through my hair and brushed it, using the hair tie to put it up. I took a deep breath and walked out, Austin standing there. He blocked my pathway.

"Excuse me". I said, looking at his chest. He reached his hand down, grabbing mine and leading us back to the seats. I sat in mine, he in his. He set his foot back up on my chair between my legs again. My giggle just escaping my lips.

"Miami will be fun". I agreed.

It was hot but I loved it. Miami was full of sunshine, beautiful people and delicious food, but I was more excited to get back to the hotel. I needed a shower and food. Katie interlocked her arms with me as we walked down the sidewalk. He wedge shoes hitting the sidewalk heavy. I looked down at my sandles.

"This is gonna be so fun"! She smiled.

As we walked into the hotel, the smell of breakfast filled my nose. I was starving. Austin and Mike stood infront of us, Troy was off to the side. Katie and I looked around the hotel, just In pure bliss.
