i spent the rest of the day working on some stuff and trying to get Lloyd out of my head. the mission itself is pretty simple but the thought of having lloyd by my side is nightmare worthy. yes, he's an asshole and he's a playboy who treats women like disposable toys, but that's not the only reason i hate him, he can be a real psychopath when he's working. i know there's no way someone who does this job is 100% mentally stable, but Lloyd's level of plain sadistic cruelty is something i've never seen before. i'm 99% sure we're gonna end up killing each other on this god awful mission.

after a while i got back home and started packing. danny told us the mission would have been a couple months old and of course he waits until the day before to tell us. the stress of needing to pack two month's worth of clothes is starting to get to me but at least i'm grateful i did't run into Lloyd after that meeting with Danny.

i end up packing 5 suitcases and a couple backpacks. fortunately danny is paying for a ride to the airport cause i would have never been able to fit or put on 5 suitcases in my car.

——————————————————————

it's the next day and i'm at home just packing the last few things like my makeup and toothbrush. it's 3:00 PM which is perfect because the number one airport rule is that you should show up to the airport at least two hours before your flight. i mean, this is private so it's going to be a little different but whatever, i've never been the type of person to plan everything perfectly anyways.

my phone is sitting on my bed as i close up the last backpack when i hear a notification.

i grab it and see it's a text from a number i don't have saved.

"finished packing, princess?"

of course it's lloyd. great, so that means he has my number now.

i mean, what am i even supposed to reply to that, it doesn't make any sense. he might have as well written "haha danny gave me your number and i'm trying to rub it in your face"

i just roll my eyes and turn off the phone. who cares if i reply or not.

a couple minutes later it starts ringing. this time it's Danny.

"hello?" i ask bringing the phone to my ear after answering

"hey, your driver should be outside to get your stuff and drive you to the airport"

"okay, great, thanks. see you in a bit" i say. Danny was going to meet us to the airport to gives us some more files and the wedding rings, but he's not coming with us

"later" he says, hanging up.

i open the door and the driver helps me load up his car. luckily it's a big range rover so it can fit more than 5 luggages.

after about 30 minutes we get to the airport.

once i get there, i get on the plane. it's a private jet, which sounds cool, but immediately stops being cool because flying private means that i'm going to be 5 hours in a capsule in the sky, alone with lloyd.

i get there before him, i wanted to have some alone time and settle down before having to live actual hell.

i take a window seat and cover myself in a blanket, opening up my laptop and going on netflix to decide on a movie to watch.

a while after Lloyd gets on the plane, followed by Danny. 100 bucks they got here together.

"hi princess, i see you got here early" Lloyd says as he walks by me, lifting up his luggage and stuffing it in the compartment above his seat, his eyes not leaving me

"hi Hansen" i say, my eyes not leaving the computer

"hi danny" i say with a fake smile as i look over at him.

he didn't like to admit it but Danny was just as bad as Lloyd. i guess he didn't show it as much though

"hi, so, i'll let you guys leave in a second, i just needed to give you some stuff, so, these are copies of the guy's file, his name is Robert White-" he says handing us each our own file

"-in here is everything you need to know about his family-" he says, handing us another peive of paper

"and...the rings" he says. the big stars of the show. the rings. he pulls them out of his pocket and hesitantly sticks his hand out, wanting us to grab them. we do

"i know we talked about acting like a couple only in public but, i suggest you keep them on at all time." he says with a serious tone

"just so you don't lose them and don't have to worry about having to put them on or take them off and everything"

i look at the ring, then at Lloyd, then at the ring. i sigh and put it on at the same time he does.

"great so, uhm...have a good flight, call me when you land...and please, please try not to kill each other" danny says in a begging expression, exaggerated in my opinion.

"yeah, okay" i say brushing it off

"i can't promise anything..." Lloyd says, he looks at me then at Danny, coming to the conclusion that to make him leave he's just gonna have to lie.

"...but, yeah i'll try" he says

"okay...bye guys" he says, walking towards the exits of the plane

"bye, Danny" Lloyd and i say, almost in union.

the takeoff is silent, Lloyd and i aren't talking to each other and i'm praying it's going to stay like this for the rest of the flight, but i do have to admit the silence is a bit awkward.

i'm pretty zoned out though since i have my airpods in and i'm watching a movie: i settled on "pulp fiction"

"hey, Greene?" i hear as i feel a tap on the shoulder. lloyd's voice slightly, as i have myheadphones on noise cancellation mode.

"yeah, what?" i say pausing the movie and looking over at him but not taking my airpods out.

"danny wanted us to study our undercovers" he says looking his file in his hand. he's not saying that because the cares at all, probably just reminding me to bother me.

"i don't know, i'm tired, can't we just do it once we get home?" i say taking one airpod out

Lloyd sits down and looks over at me "okay, stop acting like a fucking princess"

now this is the Lloyd i know...

"i'm not acting like anything, you asshole, i've been swarmed with things to do and prep for this stupid fucking mission, this one thing, we can do later, after be both rest and chill out, so that's when i'm doing it" i say putting my airpod on the table in front of me with some force, pressing play on my computer.

"hey, don't fucking end the conversation" Lloyd says standing up and shutting closed my plabtop. "listen, weather you like it or not we have to do this mission together, it's going to be a couple months than that's it. forever. this, we can do whenever, but if you're planning on acting like a bitch the entire time we have to live together, then i suggest you tell me now cause you bet your pretty ass i'll tell the pilot to do a 180 and go right back home..."

as Lloyd talks he leans down on the floor to get to my height since i'm sitting down and i just look down at him with fear and confusion in my face but i try to not let my emotions shine through. he's being a fucking asshole...

"...got it?" he says. he sounds like my dad i swear

i don't answer. i just sigh and break eye contact, almost rolling my eyes.

Lloyd gets up. "good." he says walking over to a part of the plane where i can't see him

once he can't see me anymore i roll my eyes and open my labtop back up.
