"Wake up! It's 9pm, we have to get you to the airport!" I awoke to Calum screaming in my ear. I lean up so quickly Luke and I bump heads and I groan in pain.
"Ow fück!" I curse and rub my head.
"You guys have to get going!" Calum says and he ushers us off the couch. Luke ruffles his hair and stands up. I grab my bag and walk to the restroom to change. I look in my bag for sweats, uggs, and a comfortable tank top. I took a blanket out as a carry on. I throw my hair up in a ponytail and open the bathroom door.
"How much are tickets?" I ask Luke as I emerge from the hallway.
"$450 per person" My eyes nearly bulge out of my head.
"$450?! Per person?!!" I shout, repeating what he said.
"Well, we are traveling across the world" He says and I nod, understanding that he's probably right. I take out my wallet and Luke furrows his eyebrows.
"What are you doing?" He asks and I count through the hundreds.
"Uh, giving you money" I look at him, as if he was stupid.
"Beth, it's okay I got it covered." He tells me and I immediately shake my head.
"Oh no! I'm not letting you spend $900 on plane tickets! I got myself" Luke takes the wallet from me and stuffs it in his bag.
"What're you doing?" I ask him, confused.
"Keeping your wallet until we've boarded the plane so you don't try and buy a plane ticket with your money" He say nonchalantly and I roll my eyes and zip my bag up.
"I'm ready when you are" I tell him, biting my nails and he nods his head to me and gives m a smile. My heart melts just a little bit before I head Calum asking us a question.
"Let's stop through a drive thru before we get there. Plane food is so expensive" Calum explains as he picks up his keys, I look over at Luke and see his stuffing the black v neck I wore earlier into his bag, blushing at it. My cheeks get a hint of redness as well as I recall the fond memory.
"I'll go run the car around" Luke and I
nod our head at Calum and I slip my shoes on. I see my ointment on the counter that Calum must've put so I go over to get it and stuff it in my bag.
"Does it still hurt?" Luke asks, not looking up at me.
"It did. But I can barely feel it now." He gives me a small smile and I put my bag around my back.
"Are you certain you want to do this? If you want, you can go back now. But once we're on the plane there isn't any going back." He explains to me, I nod my head already knowing my answer.
"I don't want to do this." I tell him and his face drops a little.
"Oh.." He trails off before I continue,
"But I have to. So I'm going" He smiles at me,
"Shît, you kinda scared me for a sec" He laughs and finishes,
"I'm glad you're coming" It's my turn to smile at him, I nod my head. Luke's phone buzzes and he reaches across the table to get it.
"Calum's here" He reads aloud and I walk to the door, him trailing behind. We lock the door and walk out, Luke putting his hand on the small of my back leading me to Calum's car.
"This way" He mumbles his hot breathe against my head in the cold Boston air. We reach Calum's car and I get in the back and Luke gets in the front. Luke and Calum are talking mindlessly to each other until I hear Calum's words pop out.
"Don't worry, I'll be coming in one short month. I'm not going up for trial but sooner or later they'll figure out what really happened and I'll be called first for the stand. I just need to pack up everything, give me a month." It almost sounds as if he's pleading Luke.
"Fine one month" Luke taps the console, nervously.
"What about Irwin?" Calum asks,
"What about Irwin?" Luke narrows his eyes at Calum.
Calum coughs, "What if he comes after me?" He asks Luke scared.
"You better get your ass to Switzerland fast then." Calum gulps and I realize we reached the airport.
"I'll see you guys in a month, nice meeting you uh.." Calum trails off,
"Beth" I mutter quickly as Luke rushes me out.
"Nice meeting you Beth!" I nod my head back as saying, you too.
"Ok we gotta go! See ya later Cal, watch out for Irwin" 'Cal' goes pale when he hears the name Irwin. Who's Irwin? Luke shuts the door and we walk through the airport getting the the front.
"Hello how may I assist you?" The lady, who's name tag read "Nancy" asked.
"2 tickets to Switzerland" Luke tells the lady reaching for his wallet.
"Ok that's $900" She tells Luke as he grabs 9 $100 bills out of his wallet and gives it to Nancy. She goes into the back, 3 minutes later she comes out with our tickets.
"2 tickets to Switzerland. Enjoy your flight" She gives us a fake smile and I almost laugh. Luke has had his hood up the entire time. All he said was he was being framed. I still don't know the crime "he" supposedly committed. I look at the clock and it's 10:30. I didn't realize how long that car ride was. We take a seat and Luke pulls out his phone and starts tapping on it. After 5 minutes, and 928 taps later I stop him.
"I'm bored Luke" I whine to him and hold his arm.
"Entertain me" I tell him and he laughs.
"You want me to dance like a monkey? Afraid I can't do that here darling, I may be spotted." He tells me and my mouth forms an 'O' shape.
"Where's your phone?" he asks and I blush.
"Oh I uh left it at my house" I tell him, scratching my forehead.
"On purpose?" He asked sitting up.
"Yeah. There's a tracker on it, and as you know I don't want to be found" I tell him and he nod his head.
"Understandable" He starts,
"We'll just have to get you a phone in Switzerland then." He grins big at me, squishing me into his chest. God, this boy was going to be the death of me.
"Switzerland, 11pm flight boarding now" They speak and Luke and I hop up and he pulls out his passport and so do I. I open it up and realize my real name is on it. I gasp quietly and shut it. Luke didn't realize, thank god. It's okay, it'll be fine. Luke doesn't even have to see my passport. I calm my breathes as we each one by one, show the security guard our passport and hand him our ticket to walk in. He checks my passport and looks me in the eyes.
"Next" he says as he takes my ticket aggressively and I flinch. I run up to Luke, who had been walking fast to get a seat on the plane in the front. His plan didn't work since a bunch of other people were in the front. It's okay I pee a lot, it'll be fine sitting in the back. Luke takes a seat right next to the lavatory and I thank him in my mind. We quietly sit down and I get nervous. I'm terrified of heights. Luke notices something wrong and leans over,
"You okay?" he asks and I shake my head no.
"I'm deathly afraid of heights" I inform him and he nods. He slings his arm around my shoulder.
"it's okay, you'll be fine trust me" I nod my head yes, trusting him and close my eyes.
"Welcome aboard everyone! We should be arriving in Andermatt, Switzerland in roughly 7 hours and 20 minutes. Thank you for flying with us. I look over at Luke and he gives my hand a squeeze notifying me that everything will be alright. He leans into my ear,
"It's just you and me, Beth." I look up at him and realize how close in approximately our faces were. He started leaning in, inch by inch until we were interrupted.
"Nuts?" The flight attendant loudly asks us. We shake our head no and she walks away. I blush and look out the window. Those damn nuts.
"Hey" I tap his shoulder and he looks at me.
"We never got any food?" I tell him and he face palms laughing.
"We forgot" We both laugh and settle in, this is gonna be one long flight.-
