Born To Be Real, Not Perfect!

Chapter 6 - The Plane Ride

- Chapter 6 -

~ Temari's POV ~

"Hey you guys, it's time to go," Oji shouted out to us as he finished putting in the last of our luggage in the trunk of the taxi that was going to take us to the airport.

Though none of us responded as me and the girls stood side by side, staring up at the house that had been our home for the past 4 years.

It was still dark outside, the house barely visible, though we didn't need lights. No one told us what was going to happen to it once we were gone, though, with all the chaos of packing and moving, none of us really thought about the house.

Though as we rushed out of the doors, so ready to leave, only looking back at it for a brief second...we all froze, as we looked up at the place where this family was born, where it all began, and even though Ino and I moved out two years ago, we still considered this place our home. But after this, all ties we have with this house will be cut and any purpose of coming back, meaningless.

Tenko yelled from the taxi. "Guy's, the meters running!

Ino trembled as she quickly turned around lowering the front of her cap as she made her way towards the taxi. "We're coming!"

Tenten soon followed as she used her arm to cover her now red eyes. "Ok, I'm ready." I sighed, while I watched how Tenten almost walked into a tree before Oji stopped her. "No matter how much time passes, both those girl will always be the same."

"Everyone change, it's apart of moving forward," Hinata stated as we watched Ino and Tenten hold back tears. "Though it would be nice if they could stay like this a while longer, right?" Hinata smiled.

I grinned as I wrapped my arms around her, locking her in a tight hug. "Well, I guess it's not all that bad," I smiled while rubbing my cheek against her soft hair, causing her neet comb to go messy. I was surprised that she didn't react at all when I let her go, usually, she'd kick me right after, though she simply fixed her hair, took one last look at the house, then walked back to the car.

Something felt wrong.

|At The Airport|

Once we had arrived at the airport and had gotten all our baggage through checking, Oji stopped us. "Ok guys, I'm handing back your passports. You lose your passport, well, good luck on getting another flight because no one will be waiting for your sorry as-" Ino gave him a good kick in the stomach before he could say anymore as he quietly handed out our passport.

'Idiot.'

By the time we were seated, I sighed in relief as I relaxed into my chair. 'So tired.' My eyelids were beginning to close on me as my head pounded. Our flight was about 7 and a half hours long and was set to leave at 5 AM. Tenten suggested that we stay up all night so we could just sleep during the flight, but most of us fell asleep once it hit two.

Though I was still counting my lucky stars that I wasn't stuck sitting next to Ino who was scared of flying as Tenten tried to calm her down so she could take her meds. I felt bad for her, but still grateful that I didn't pull the short straw on that one.

But guess karma was punishing me with this killer headache. Suddenly I felt a light tap on my shoulder as I turned to see Hinata holding out a bottle of painkillers and a small bottle of water. I gave her a weak smile as I accepted the pills "Thanks."

She simply looked out her window, unamused, as she grunted. "How about instead of thanking me, you pay for the one you emptied out last week." I took out my wallet and just when I was going to give her my 20, she pushed my hands away. "Your money's no good to me now. Keep it."
