Airport encounters || Calm

Ashton

Leah's major fangirl on her way to Las Vegas to visit her aunt, Sue, for the summer break and hopefully to meet some celebs along the way. However, of course she was late. The usual. She only had 5 minutes to get to boarding before she missed her flight.

Leah's P.O.V:

I ran down the halls of the airport, dragging my carry-on behind me. "MOVE, GET OUT OF THE WAY!" I yelled. I've only got 5 minutes till my flight leaves me and I'm all the way on the other side of the airport. 'Stupid alarm clock', I thought to myself. I set the damn thing for 6 am but nope it decides to go off at 8. I barely ate anything and I honestly looked like a mess. My hair was all over the place, I had no makeup on and I was still wearing my pjs under my coat. At least no one I know is here.

"Oh shit, only 3 more minutes" I practically screamed. I jumped over someone's luggage and dodged past everyone. There it was. I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. "Almost there...Legs don't fail me now" I was about to take my final leap when it all went black,I hit something hard and fell backwards onto my butt. "WHAT THE FUCK" I opened my eyes, only to be met by a pair of gorgeous hazel jewels. "Oh, I'm sorry mate. Let me help you." The dirty blonde held out his abnormally huge hands for me to grab. "No, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I was running and I.." "Don't worry about it babe", he said smiling. God his smile was beautiful. He was beautiful. His eyes, his hair, his jawline. It was all perfect. Wait, did he just call me 'babe'?! "Uh babe?" "Too forward?", he asked, a smirk prominent on his face. Butterflies were set off in my stomach. "A bit, yea",  I replied. "Well let me formally introduce myself. The name's Irwin. Ashton. Irwin", he said flashing me another smile. This guy was smiley. "More like James Bond", I laughed awkwardly, trying to play it cool. He simply giggled. It was the cutest thing ever. "Well Mr. Irwin, I'm Leah" "Nice to meet you babe", he smirked. "There you go again", I said, blushing at his remark. "I'm sorry. You're just really pretty. I can't help it." I looked down at my clothing. I looked like shit, how can he call me pretty?! Another blush crept onto my face. I probably looked as red as a tomato now. God, what was this boy doing to me? He kept talking but I was just lost in his eyes.

"Flight 201 to Las Vegas now boarding" A voice on the PA system announced. I immediately snapped back into reality. "SHIT..THAT'S ME" , I yelled. "I've really got to go.", I said. "Oh it's okay. Maybe you can give me your number and our conversation wont have to end here." ,he said clearly trying to flirt."Um okay" He handed me his phone. I quickly punched in the numbers before practically flinging it back at him. "Byeee Irwin", I yelled. "Bye Babe. Check your phone when you get on the plane!", he yelled back. I guess that was his nickname for me. Gosh, I could get used to that. 

I handed the lady my ticket and dragged my carry-on suitcase onto the plane. Sigh. Now the struggle was for me to find my seat. After about 3 minutes of searching, I finally found it. I got the window seat next to some old lady. This shouldn't be that bad. I shifted into the right position and before I knew it, we were off. Of course, I couldn't forget what the hot male I just met had told me. I unlocked my phone and a message popped up. "Hey Babe. This is uk who. Hope you have a great flight. Text me when you see this", it read. Aw. He was so sweet and UGH. I was falling. I knew I was. But how could I fall when all I knew was his name?! "Hey Irwin. Thank you. I just got on. I'm sat next to this really old lady...She smells weird" I giggled while sending. He replied almost immediately, "Aw man. Ik the feeling. My Grandma smells like cats mixed with cheese" I burst out laugh at his weird remark, gaining many weird looks that I just brushed off. It wasn't even that funny, but here I am laughing my ass off. Wow, I was falling.
