Joe's (Zoella's brother) P.O.V
I flung my suitcase on my bed.
This thing is so old and dusty. I haven't been on a holiday in so long.
I chucked some pieces of useless paper, that I'd found inside my old grey suitcase, and threw them on the floor.
Cracking my knuckles, I walked over to my wardrobe, pulling it open and scanning it.
''I have too many Blue shirts'' I whispered to myself, running my hand through my blonde hair.
''Joe, have you seen my contouring brush?!''
Ahh yes. My lovely sister Zoe.
''Well, thanks for knocking...'' I mutter while pretending to look for it in my bedroom.
Zoe is obviously panicked, trying to pack everything she can possibly fit in her suitcase.
''Joe! I really doubt it's in your room!'' Her tiny hands grab my arms.
She's small but she's tough.
''Alright alright, I don't know where your... What is a contouring brush?''
I quiz my sister. She doesn't need makeup but she thinks she does. My sister is really pretty.
I always remember when we were still in school and she was two years ahead of me, all my friends
always said she was fit.
''Uuuuggghhh!'' She groaned, stomping out of my room, her hair all messy since she just woke
up. I pulled off my shirt, preparing for my shower, when my phone started buzzing.
''Hey mate, how's it goin?'' I say as I answer the phone.
''Alright mate. Listen, what time is our flight again?'' I hear the familiar voice of one of my friends, Alfie,
on the phone.
''Uh...Two secs let me ask Zo''
Swinging my door open, I run down to Zoe's room and open her's.
''Zo, Alfie wants to the know the time for our flight?'' I say, sticking my head in her door.
She's putting like seven bikinis into her suitcase.
''It's at half ten'' She says, not bothering to turn and face me.
''Half ten, Alf'' I speak into the phone.
''Wait Joe, tell him he needs to be here my half seven though. It takes like two and a half hours to get the
airport'' Zoe says, before I manage to escape her, vanilla scented, room.
''She says you have to be here at half seven''
''...'she' has a name...'' I hear Zoe mumble to herself, rolling her eyes.
She's so stressed it's ridiculous. There are four huge piles of clothes on her bed and like six
makeup bags and her suitcase is full. She throws her hands to her head letting out a groan.
''Alfie says it take one hour and a half not two'' I pass on the message to my sister as I watch her
pull out another blue suitcase from under her bed.
''Well, Alfie's wrong...'' She replies, pulling her hair into a really messy bun on top of her head.
''She says you're wrong, Alfie'' I say into the phone, secretly smirking at him.
Zoe always corrects him but he never admits he's wrong.
Alfie and Zoe have history. They dated for a really long time but kept it a secret from all they're fans.
If that got out, god knows what would happen.
Anyways, they were super dramatic and inlove and it was hard for them to hide it so they called it off eventually.
It was easier for everyone that way but you can sense the sexual tension at times.
''Alfie says you're an idiot'' I blurt out quickly while I have Alfie screaming in my ear. I wasn't supposed to
say that part to Zoe I guess...oops.
Zoe suddenly throws a bunch of clothes into the empty suitcase and whips her head round to face me.
''Give me that'' She says sternly, holding out her arm.
Lucky Alfie is in for an earful now.
I hand my sister the phone and leave her room as quickly as possible and I can hear Zoe from down
the hall saying things like 'One and a half hours?! Are you out of your fucking mind?!'
It's way too early to function and I need to take a shower.
Alfie's arriving at half seven, assuming that Zoe won the argument which she always does, and it's six o' clock
so I have to be quick in the shower so I can actually get some packing done.
''Hey, I need a shower too so don't be long, k?'' Zoe sticks her head in my door, throwing my phone onto
my bed.
''Yeah, thanks'' I respond glancing at my phone to make sure there's no risk of it falling off.
*******************************************************
We're ten minutes away from the airport, Alfie and myself in the front of the car and Zoe and Marcus in the back.
Marcus' face was smushed against the window as he snoozed lightly. He's not a morning person.
''Alf, put on some music'' Zoe demands from behind me, gazing out the window.
I turn on the radio and flick to the music station as 'Everbody Talks by Neon Trees' is just ending.
''Aww I love that song...'' Marcus murmurs, half asleep.
Zoe turns and looks at him, letting out a giggle, and pokes him in the dimple.
''Mmmnmnm...'' Marcus groans, shoving Zoe slightly by the shoulder.
I smile into the rearview mirror at his comical image.
''Jack, Finn and Louise are at the airport already''
Zoe says, reading a text from her phone.
''Tell'em we'll be there in like three minutes, just need to park'' Alfie replies, keeping his eyes on the road.
Zoe taps the message into her phone.
''Hey Zo, could you step out for a sec, lead me into the parking space'' Alfie asks Zoe.
She opens the door and steps out.
Once we're finally parked we make our way into the airport.
''They're at the coffee shop over there'' Zoe gestured towards a small coffee shop in the corner
of the airport.
We make our way over to the coffee place. ''Do you see them?'' I finally ask, squinting.
''My glasses are in my bag, mate'' Marcus responded while rubbing his eyes, still tired from waking up.
''CHUMMY!'' Zoe suddenly shouts, making us all stop in our tracks and earning some looks from strangers.
I hear another yell from the coffee shop and Zoe drops all her bags.
Before I know it, my very own sister is running towards Louise, arms outstretched.
Louise finally comes into view so we know Zoe isn't about to hug a random person thinking it was her.
They finally collide while Jack and Finn walk slowly to us, taking in this spectacle.
''Your drive here alright?'' Marcus asks the twins, picking up Zoe's bags and walking towards them.
''Yeah, you?'' Jack replies.
Jack has always been the one to speak first.
Finn is very shy. That's why he never makes videos by himself, unlike Jack.
Jack is the loud twin, the leader, even though he's the youngest.
Marcus replies with a 'Yeah'.
''Oi mate, how would you know. You slept the whole way'' Alfie chuckles.
Marcus mocks his laugh and Alfie stops, making a face at him.
''You guys finished then?'' I ask Zoe and Louise, raising an eyebrow.
''Joebeeeaar!'' Louise squeals, hugging me tightly.
Louise is like my sister, I love her to bits.
''Ok, so now we must wait for mister Caspar Lee. Fashionably late I'm guessing?'' Jack states, searching around the
airport for the cheeky South African.
That's so Caspar. He's always last because he likes to make an entrance. He pretty much likes being the focus.
I guess that's why he's on Youtube and is so good at it.
''Ahaa and here comes the Blonde haired devil'' Zoe says, smirking, and I follow her gaze.
My eyes land on Caspar Lee. You can definitely spot him easily...even if your glasses are in your suitcase.
He has very striking features which are definitely popular with the girls.
Everytime we go clubbing, Caspar gets asked out at least seven times each night.
And I'm pretty sure he gets laid everytime.
He just can't be committed though. Caspar Lee is a player... He can't get enough of girls and they can't get enough of him.
But even though all of that is true, Caspar is a proper friend. When we met him for the first time, I didn't even
have to tell him that Zoe was off limits ( she is my sister after all) because he knew his boundaries even though we both
knew Zoe fancied him. Only for a little while though. She only ever told me but I had to tell Caspar.
Caspar was walking towards us, his black Ray-Ban sunglasses covering his eyes.
He was wearing black trousers, sagged down halfway down his ass so not too much.
He ran his fingers through his blonde hair slowly, as more than a few girls in the airport were staring at him, including Zoe and
Louise even though Louise is married but, like she always says, she can just look.
His grey V-neck T-shirt hung loosely over his torso as a sideways grin crept onto his face, obviously noticing girls staring.
He was dragging his black suitcase along behind him and then finally came to a stop infront of us.
''Aah, Caspar Lee. You absolute slut'' I speak up finally.
Caspar slide his sunglasses up onto his head and looks over to me.
''Joseph! Long time since I've seen you, mate!'' He chuckled giving me a bro hug.
Caspar is my closest friend out of all these guys. Since the first time we met, we had
a special, brotherly, relationship. ''Good to see you, man'' I reply.
He turns to the others as they are all in awe of how 'cool' he is.
Nobody else seemed to have noticed that he's wearing sunglasses when its just getting light outside.
''Well, hello Ladies'' Caspar winks and Zoe and Louise and Zoe shoves him playfully.
They all hug and say their 'hello's.
''We should probably head to the gate now, we have an hour to get through security and then
find our gate'' Zoe says reading out of a notebook she keeps in her handbag.
Finn raises his hand to his forehead in a salute. ''Yes Ma'am''
Zoe pokes him in the stomach and we all go to security.
*************************************************
''Jack put that up for me'' Finn hands his twin his camera bag to put in the overhead cabinets in the plane.
''Ok so the seating goes: Caspar, Joe, Louise, Alfie, Marcus, Finn, Zoe and Me'' Jack reads out from the boarding
passes.
We all take our seats in the row and get ready for take off.
When we're a few seconds before take off, I look over to Zoe.
''Zo, you ok?'' I ask her, worried.
Zoe is quite scared of taking off but she's not like freakishly afraid of it.
''Yeah, I'm good Joe thanks'' She smiles at me, appreciatively.
I lean back and close my eyes. But she's my sister.
I pull out my phone and turn off airplane mode. Oh well.
I open my messages and text Jack. I quickly lean forward and check that he's sitting with her.
*Hey man, can ya make sure Zoe's ok for take off for me? Cheers mate*
Jack leans forward and gives me a thumbs up.
She plane starts racing down the runway. Silence takes over the plane and all our heads and forced against
our headrests.
I see Zoe out of the corner of my eye, her eyes closed. She lets out a rapid breath and Jack turn to look at her.
He whispers something, his head still plastered to his seat.
She nods without opening her eyes and opens her hand for Jack to hold.
He takes her hand and faces forward again. I can see she's nervous by the way her nails are gripping into his skip
on his knuckles. Jack's a really good guy. He always thinks about other people before himself.
Once everything calms a bit, Zoe opens her eyes and turns to Jack, her hand still gripping his.
''Thanks...'' She says, apologetically.
''It's nothing Zo'' He smile at her, running his other hand through his auburn hair.
Silence takes over our row again.
''So...'' Finn starts
''Florida here we come.''
