New State New Life **Editing In Process**

Who's Coming

"Hey, you go home in like two weeks right?" Marie asked

"Yeah why?" I said

"Did you ever find a room" She laughed

"Nope. Everywhere is booked or overly expensive" I sighed

"What are you going to do?" She asked

"Probably pay out the ass for a room" I shrugged

Marie nodded and I continued entering today's exams and surgeries. I am also scrolling through my phone trying to find a place to stay when I go visit for Christmas, multi-tasking. Oh, I think I have an idea. Going into my contacts, I typed in Evans name and looked at the time. I think he should be done work by now. Hitting call, I held that between my shoulder and ear and typed while it rang.

"Hello?" He said

"Hey Evan" I said

"Hey Bec, what's up" He said

"Does you dad still rent out that house by my nans?" I asked

"Yeah, you going to come visit?" He asked

"I was going to come for Christmas and I can not for the life of me find a hotel room that will not cost a whole paycheck and a half" I said

"Hmm, I know my aunt and uncle were suppose to come up. But I think my aunt is sick. I can double check with my dad and see if he already has someone else in there" Even said

"Can you? Also how much would it be?" I asked

"I'll ask and call you back sound good?" He said

"All good. Thank you" I said

We both hung up and I got on with my paperwork. About 20 minutes later I had a phone call from Evan.

"Hello" I said

"Hey, I talked to my dad and he said it's all your's for that week" Evan said

"Really? What do I owe him?" I asked

"Nothing. Even after you and my little brother broke up you always came helped him out, i'm pretty sure you helped re paint that house. So, since you never let him pay you, he's not letting you pay him" Evan laughed

"Aww" I chuckled

"But you have to come pick up the keys from me. So I make sure you visit us too. Carly misses you as well" Evan said

"I will. Don't worry" I chuckled

"Are you coming alone, cause that's a two bedroom house?" He asked

"No, my friend's brother.. I think you met him with I got all my stuff. He somehow convinced me to let him come. And my cousin is coming from Kansas so i'll be seeing her" I said

"Is she staying with you? "Evan asked

"No she got a room I think" I replied

"I mean you can fit four people in that house for a week. We know you guys won't trash it if you like this cousin" He laughed

"I like this cousin" I laughed "She's the one I lived with for two months before I moved to Montana"

"Ah okay. Well I will be seeing you soon and I have to cook dinner now" Evan said

"Can't wait. And tell your dad thank you" I said

"Will do" He replied

We both hung up and and I got on with my paper work. I told Marie about the house and she laughed and said lucky. I'm not ready

~*~

"So, are you two ready?" Marie asked

"I am" Connor said

"Are you sure. Cause, you don't have to go" I said

"We're leaving for the airport, there's no going back now" He laughed

"Just making sure" I said

Connor shook his head and we got in Marie's truck. It's currently 4am, our flights at 6am and it's an hour to the airport. We got this. Making the drive we got breakfast on the way and I tried staying awake. Marie on the highway is kind of scary. It's a Monday so she's going back to sleep after she drops us off. Once we got to the air port we both got hugged and headed inside. It's pretty empty right now so i'm pretty sure we're going to make our flight on time. Getting our bags checked in, I kept my backpack with me and we made our way through TSA. I am currently guiding Connor through the airport since this kids never been on a plane. Going through security, Connor got patted down and was terrifed. It was kind of funny to watch. Once he was set free he put his boots back on and looked at me.

"It's mean that you laughed" He said

"It's not that bad. C'mon. We have 20 minutes until we board." I said

"How far is the plane?" He asked

"The terminal should be down here. I think it's the one Marie and I were at actually" I laughed

He nodded and I grabbed his arm as we walked throught he air port. He's like a kid in a candy shop and wants to look at everything. Looking at the time, we did have about 15 minutes before our flight boarded, so we just made it. I mean it's better then sitting around for an hour and waiting. Getting to our gate we sat down and played on our phones before they started boarding. Right on time to, that never happens.

"C'mon, that's us" I said

Connor looked at me and nodded before standing up. Getting in line, we got our tickets scanned and make our way onto the plane. Looking at the tickets mine was a window seat so i'm going to assume he's got middle.

"Hey, do you want the window seat?" I asked

"Who has it?" He asked

"I do" I said

"You can have it" Connor replied

"You've never flown before. I've sat at the window plenty of times" I said

He smiled and nodded and I pointed to our seats. Connor sat down and I sat next to him and put my backpack on the floor. Sitting around for the next 20 minutes, everyone was boarded and we were pushing off from the gate. The flight attendants went over their spiel and soon we were sitting on the runway ready to take off.

"So, no going back now. Ready to meet my family?" I asked

"Yup. You've met mine" Connor said

"Mine's a pain in the ass though" I replied looking at him

"It'll be fine" He laughed

Shrugging, we took off and Connor had a death grip on the seat handle. So I put my hand on top of his while also laughing. Time to start this three and some hour flight.
