We are currently driving to the airport. Let me just tell you that we are completely wiped out. Last night was probably the most fun i've had in months.
My legs were aching, that made sense since we biked for four hours. The drive wasn't long but as we passed by the buildings, I realized how much I was going to miss this place.
Ryan said the magazine would come out today and said he would visit us in la soon. I was payed 600 dollars for the article, but if people liked it, they would pay me another 300
The people from the Best Writer's Society were the one firsts to see my article. Lana still hasn't told me about it but I didn't mind.
We made it to the airport after a couple of minutes and the driver dropped us off in the front. We helped Ashton unload our luggage but he did most of the work.
We payed the man and went inside. Swarms of people walked around in different directions. We walked to a line to weigh our luggage.
I checked my tickets to make sure all three of them were there and rolled my suitcase over to the measure scale. It was only 33 pounds while the maximum was 50.
The lady checked all of our luggages and told us to have a good flight. We walked to terminal 3 squeezing through the crowd. Well, it was a Saturday.
We left the hotel around 7:20 so we wouldn't have to wait round to get into the airplane. We did a security check and then gave our tickets to the lady. Sure enough, it was 8 and we boarded the plane on time.
I called window seat and Lana pouted. I told her to sit in the middle so Ashton can sit on the other side of her. She looked a bit queasy but then relaxed when Ashton held her hand.
She put her head on his shoulder and I muttered under my breath wishing I could have a cute relationship like that. I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes.
We were too tired to even talk to each other. Ashton and Lana were probably already sleeping and here I was looking through the window like I have some authentic thought coming on.
Knowing that I wouldn't be awake this whole ride, I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.

I woke up to a sudden jolt on the plane. I heard myself snort a bit but then calmed down after the jolting stopped.
I checked the time and we only had two hours left on the flight. Wow, i really did sleep long. I looked on my right to see Ashton practically drooling on Lana. I chuckled and stretched my legs.
I noticed I got a text from Ryan. Well, multiple.
Ryan: I tweeted out that you had a page in the article of the magazine and guess what?
Ryan: We sold over 50,000 copies in 3 hours. You're a hit! The reviews were amazing.
Ryan: I should just spill the news to you right now... I submitted your article to the Best Writers Society and now you get to compete with 9 other people!
Ryan: You're probably sleeping huh? Well, when you wake up check your twitter
I couldn't help but feel a bit of joy hearing I got into the competition but it's a bit nerve wracking knowing that i'm competing against the best writers. I didn't think I was one to be honest but that doesn't mean I wouldn't try my best.
I put my phone on the little desk in front of me. I would check twitter when we land. I was parched from sleeping for about 7 hours so I ordered a sprite from the flight attendant.
I really couldn't do anything on the plane so I decided to listen to some music on my phone. Luckily, I had earphones.
I clicked on Brooklyn Baby by Lana Del Ray. Not knowing that the volume was all the way up, the music screamed into my ear which caused my to yell "OH MY god". This made Lana wake up.
"what happened? Oh god are we crashing? Lana what's happening?" She looked at me with her tired but alert eyes and I laughed at her.
"no my music was on too loud and I practically screamed" she sighed in relief and looked over to Ashton. His hair was all over his face and she lightly tapped him.
He moved his head and mumbled a little "hmmm?" in a raspy voice. Okay, knowing Lana, she totally found that sexy.
"Hey Ash, do you want anything to drink? They're serving drinks" She asked him while I sipped my sprite.
"mmmWater" was all that came out and I couldn't help but laugh at how tired he was. Lana put her hand on his head and put him on her shoulder. He instantly fell back asleep, smiling.
Lana looked at me with a stern look and I looked back at her confused.
"I really like him Ash. He's so sweet and loving. I'm scared to be the one asking him out because he hasn't asked yet." she said quietly.
"Lana he definitely likes you. I can see the way he looks at you and how he cares for you. Just be patient, yeah?"
she nodded her head and looked back at him. He was sound asleep. Lana rested her head back a bit and closed her eyes. I did the same but then I heard a bit of shuffling. I looked over and saw Ashton putting his arm around her.
"I really like you too Lana" he said while resting his forehead against her shoulder kissing it. I couldn't help but feel grossed out and happy at the same time.
I saw Lana's eyes light up and she gave him a kiss on the head.
Ahhh young love
