Insecurities

To Be Home Again

After Team and the others left to go check in, his Finnish friends waved goodbye to them and made their to their cars

"I still want to know where you were" Kevin had been bugging Tristen about his location after he refused to tell anyone where he was

"I was at a place where you weren't" Tristen said before exiting the airport

"Hold him for me" Jazmane gave Loyal to Tina because she had to talk to Sid

"Okay- take your time" Tina was smiling, but was dying inside

"Why are you being so supportive" Tristen asked

"Because... Because I have accepted that dumbass is going to probably be in our lives forever starting from now" Tina covered Loyal's ears when she said 'dumbass'

Tristen stared at Tina in disbelief and continued to stare at Tina until she reveals her actual reasoning

"Fine, Team wanted me to act nice as a last wish because he is leaving and I told him I would do anything for him" Tina said

Tristen laughed all the way to his car knowing that Tina was dying inside

"You look beautiful" Sid complimented Jazmane

Jazmane gave a little nod and felt the tension between them was awkward

"Thank you for trusting me" Sid once again was showing his appreciation

"Sid, I am sure you know this whole process is going to take a while for me to get use to"

"So if I come off rude, don't take it to heart" Jazmane said

"I totally understand"

They stood there not knowing what next to say, but Jazmane was always one to know how to keep the conversation going

"Loyal is going back to school in two weeks, if you want, you can come"

Loyal was out of school for summer break, and it was going to be the first time that he was going back to school without Team being there

"Yea, I would love that"

"Good, I will text you later about it"

They were now done with the conversation and Jazmane was free to walk away

Jazmane was Tina's driver since Tina's car was still at Tristen's parents' house

"How did it go" Tina asked

"I don't know, but it is the beginning of something"

On the plane, they still had 10 hours until they reached Thailand. Manaow was feeling sleepy, so she and Pruk went to sleep. Korn and In were discussing wedding plans. Dean and Pharm were discussing how they were going to spend their second honeymoon. Team and Win were talking about their lives for the last seven years, they were trying to catch each other up

"Sorry we didn't get to go on that date" Faye said

While Faye and Aya were really talking. Aya wasn't talking because he was still thinking about the job opportunity that he had already accepted

"No- it's okay"

"I mean after planning last night's events, I know you are completely worn out"

"Let's go on a date after we return to Thailand" Faye suggested

"A date? I was thinking we should go to the Bahamas or Bora Bora"

Faye thought he was joking and silently laughed, brushing him off
