I Will Survive

13 - Cake

Everyone was up by 7 even though Kayleigh hadn't slept very well. For breakfast Mia prepared them some baked beans and egg, which was a nice change from dry foods. The eggs were sourced from chickens that roamed free around the area.

"Mia babe?!" George shouted whilst getting his underwear on in the back room.

"Yes honey?!" She shouted back.

"Thanks for letting us stay around here..." He smiled even though he knew she couldn't see.

"It's alright, anything for my boyfriend and his family and friends!" She replied.

Wayne was sitting in the main lobby with Debra, Dylan, Gabe and Kayleigh.

"Mia!? What did you do with George last night? It sounded like you were hurting!" He shouted over the room. There was a silence as everyone stared at Mia through the doorway into the kitchen.

"Um, it was nothing..." She replied awkwardly whilst moving away from everyone's sight. George could be heard laughing from the other room but Mia chose to ignore it. "Is everyone okay with baked beans?"

After breakfast they headed outside into the gleaming sunshine. They explained about the bunker to Mia and she gave them a cutting torch to burn the locks off. They melted straight off and the hangar door slid straight open.

"Thank fucking God!" Gabe shouted whilst flailing his arms around the place. He wandered inside and saw the massive private jet. It was black with a golden streak down the side of it. It had small circular windows and a pointy nose. When Gabe went inside it looked untouched and the fuel tank was full.

"Where do you think we should go?" Dylan asked "We do have a jet, we could go anywhere!"

"I think we should go east, to see if my sister made it to Atlanta. I have heard that it is the safest place in the entire of the United States!" Gabe shouted.

"Atlanta sounds good then!" Debra stated, "it will be nice to know me, Wayne and Dylan can be safe!"

"Yeah, safe!" Wayne repeated.

"Sure I'm going!' George smirked.

"Atlanta it is!" Gabe smiled as he got into the cockpit. "Everyone gather what they need and let's get going as soon as possible!" He shouted before he waited for everyone to arrive.

Everyone was collecting all of the supplies from the truck and main lobby of the airport before getting onto the plane.

"I just realised, I don't know how old everyone here is now..." Mia stated "All I know is that George, Kayleigh and me are the same age, which is 25..."

"Well I am 18, Debra is the same age as Gabe which is 28 and Wayne is 10" Dylan stated with a smile.

"I just realised how close in age we all are..." Debra laughed "It's not like age means anything anyway! Speaking of age, I was only 18 when I had Wayne... Damn, I was so young and stupid. I thought it would be fun to go and have sex to earn money, I couldn't get a job so it was my best bet. Please don't see me any differently... It was a mistake..." She started to cry and Dylan put his arm around her as they did their belts up on the jet.

"Its fine, I will still love you. It doesn't matter what has happened in the past, life is about what is to come, not what has already happened. Just make sure you remember that..." He kissed her on the cheek and let her lay her head upon his shoulder as she relaxed.

"Everyone ready?!" Gabe spoke from the front of the jet into the mic.

"Yes!" Everyone shouted as the plane moved out of the hangar and into the open.

"10" George started.

"9" Kayleigh carried on.

"8" Wayne giggled.

"7" Debra Laughed excitedly.

"6" Dylan moaned with a smirk.

"5" Gabe cracked through the mic.

"4" Mia chirped.

"3" George smiled whilst kissing Mia.

"2" Wayne shouted at the top of his lungs.

"1" Gabe sang.

"Go!" Everyone then shouted as the plane zoomed forward and took off, into the bright blue sky.

"All we are missing is the aeroplane food!" Mia laughed.

"Yeah, I usually have cake!" George smirked.

"OMG!" Kayleigh spoke up "Remember when we used to go on holiday and the planes had that really nice cake?"

"Yes I do! I wish we had cake now..." George pretended to cry.

"Aww, it's fine I will let you have some of my cake sometime" Mia winked to him as she stuck her tongue out. Everyone burst into laughter as the plane got to its optimum speed.

"Off to Atlanta!" Wayne sang before there was a loud knocking sound coming from the back of the plane.

"Shit... What was that?" Dylan asked whilst quickly spinning around in his seat.

"I have no fucking clue..." Debra replied looking petrified.
