sammi's pov
"hey, wake up." jack whispered, gently nudging me. i opened my eyes to see people exiting the plane. "let's go, babe."
i stretched my arms and stood, intertwining my hand in jack's. we exited the plane along with a few others who were sleeping, just like me. i looked among the crowd of people and spotted jack's mother, katherine along with molly, laura, and my mom.
molly held a sign that said "welcome home sammi! (and jack too.)"
the simple gesture made my insides feel all fuzzy. it's so cute. they all missed me. my thoughts made me smile to myself, earning a look of confusion from jack.
"what are you smiling at? better be me." he glared playfully down at me before i pointed to the group. he smiled too, laughing at the (and jack too.) part.
"they're so cute. i love our families." i said to him and he agreed. we both walked over to the luggage claim and luckily, our bags were the first to come out.
jack, being the gentleman he is, told me he was carrying my bag no matter what i said. i gave up and dashed through the crowd of people to the group consisting of jack and i's mothers and his sisters.
"is that my sammi?" my mom joked and pulled me into a tight hug. "i've missed you."
"i missed you more momma. you look as beautiful as ever." i kissed her cheek and let go of her, moving on to katherine. "so do you, mrs. gilinsky."
"oh sammi, you're so sweet! thank you dear. you look gorgeous as well." she pulled me into a hug as jack reached us with the bags.
"thank you." she let go and i walked over to molly and laura, who were both looking down at their phones.
i fake coughed and rhey both looked up at me, a surprised look plastered their faces. "SAMMI!" they yelled in unison, attacking me with a warm hug.
"hey babes." i smiled. i don't even consider these two as friends, they're more like the older sisters i never had.
"have you lost weight? you look amazing, girl!" laura shouted, scanning my body.
"yes! and you look tanner! did you get a tan?" molly asked.
"calm down. calm down. no, i haven't lost weight and yes, i got a tan." i chuckled.
"you look hot. my brother picked a good one." molly laughed and laura agreed.
"yeah, you are for real goals!" laura said.
"thank you, thank you. you two are the best. i love yall." i replied, pulling then both into another hug.
"what are you girls chatting about?" jack walked up behind me, grabbing my hips.
"how ugly you are." i snorted, getting a laugh from molly and laura and a glare from jack.
"you're so mean to me." he retorted. "you're lucky you got a fat ass."
i smacked his arm and he chuckled. "shut up."
"come on, mom is waiting on us." jack said, grabbing my hand and basically pulling me to the car.
we all piled into katherine's minivan and began towards her house. jack and i sat in the very back alone. oh the things that are bound to happen on this thirty minute drive.
