~Chapter 19~
-Niall's POV-
She was gone outside in the rain walking by herself. I went upstairs to my room and took a cold shower. I don't even know why? It's not even hot outside. After my shower I put a pair of boxers and pajama pants. I often sleep with nothing but boxers on but tonight I'm wearing pants. I went to sleep thinking about what tomorrow. It must be perfect since Gem will be with me. Like today, it was terrible outside but Gem made it a perfect day. Well almost a perfect day until she left be. When I woke up in the morning I got dressed and grabbed my suitcase and drove down to Gem's house. Once I got there I hopped out if the car and knocked on the door. She answered.
"Hey you ready?", I asked.
"Ya", Gem said. She went back into the house and came out with a suitcase and her carry-on. She looked beautiful today. She was wearing a white dress with a navy blue cardigan. No I do not speak Prada. I opened the passenger's seat door and she hopped in. Then I went around into the driver's seat . This was so weird. I was so use to the driver's seat on the right side of the car. But this is America. America is strange. I started the car and when in the direction of the airport.
"Can't you wait?", I asked excitingly.
"Yup! Can't wait", Gem replied with a fake smile on her face. I knew it was fake, it can tell when it's fake. Like the smile that she put on last night, that was not fake. Now it is fake.
"You don't want to go, do you?", I asked my smile turning into a frown.
"It's just I'm a afraid that your friends won't like me and also I've never been on a plane before", Gem answered.
"Gem, they'll love you. And you'll be fine I'll be with you every step of the way. Except maybe in the restroom, I won't be with you in there", I said trying to lighten the mood. She laughed, she smiled a real smile. The smile I love. When we got to the airport I called my dad to come pick up the car. Then I got the tickets from the glovebox. We got the luggage and walked into the airport. It was huge. Well most airports are huge, right? STOP TALKING TO YOURSELF! We walked over to the line that's labeled London, England. Not very many people. We walked up to the person at the counter she verified our tickets and we were send to the human metal detector. We took off our shoes emptied our pockets, and Gem emptied her purse. We didn't beep. We put our shoes back on a gather our belongings. Then we're were told to be seated.
"I'm scared and I don't feel so good", Gem said placing her hand on her stomach. She is like 5 months or so pregnant.
"You'll be fine remember I'll be with you every step of the way", I said. She laid her head on my shoulder like she did before. She fell asleep on me. I felt bad waking her up when we were called to board the plane. We walked over to the boarding bridge and gave the woman our tickets.
We took our seats we were assigned to and once everyone was on the pilot called for take-off. Gem was next to me biting her nails like crazy. I tried to comfort her, but whatever I did she still had a slight sign of nervousness. When the plane took off, Gem clasped my arm. We were up in the air. Like a bird flying.
"I've always wondered what it was like to fly", Gem said.
"Now you do", I said.
"Kind of, I guess but I mean like a bird. Not trapped by anything but air", Gem corrected.
"Well the sky is the limit", I said. She once again fell asleep on me. I had nothing to do, what most plane rides are like. Boring. I got up and used the restroom. When I was back at my seat I found Gem awake.
"What's wrong", I asked.
"I can't sleep without you by my side", Gem said. I gave her a kiss on the forehead. She grabbed my hand and placed on her bare stomach which held a baby inside. She placed my head to a spot on her stomach. I could feel a thump after a thump after a thump.
"Do you feel that?", Gem asked.
I nodded.
"That's where the heart is", Gem said. My hand was still placed on her stomach when a felt a kick.
"Ow!", Gem quietly yelled.
"What's wrong?", I asked concerned. She managed to get over me and make her way down the aisle. Tripping over other people's items. She quickly walked to the restroom. When she told me she didn't feel good at the airport she must of meant sick not scared of meeting my friends or of the cruel plane ride. She can back as paler than a baby's butt.
"Are you okay?", why do I keep asking this question.
"No, I'm not okay. I'm pregnant, I'm meeting your friends and one you haven't even met, I'm on a plane for first time, and I just vomited. So no I'm not okay", Gem said. I was surprised and proud of her for saying this she's kept this all in her head until now. I was. I am.Truly, madly deeply in love with Gem. The rest of the ride was mostly silent except of the other passengers on the plane. We both slept most of the time. I woke up when I felt the plane land.
"Gem", I quietly said. Her eyes slowly fluttered open.
"Welcome to England".
