Chapter 9

Jess POV

I dumped a suitcase onto my bed and started to neatly fold my clothes so they would all fit. I would be in America with Paul for a month and I had to try and fit enough clothes into one suitcase. Paul strolled into my room and sat on my bed.

"Hey" I said continuing to fold and pack. "Hey beautiful" Paul replied, "Are you almost ready?"

"Yeah. I've just got this pile and then my makeup" I said. "Ok. Well we have three hours until we need to be at the airport" Paul said folding some of my clothes. I smiled at him and continued to put everything into my bag.

After another hour my bag was packed and I was in the comfiest clothes I owned: a loose top, genie pants and ugg boots. "How long is the flight?" I asked. "About fourteen hours" Paul said. I groaned. It would be worth it though.

I put my phone, laptop, iPad and chargers into the bag that I was taking on the plane and then sat on my bed with Paul. "I'm so excited" I said. "Me too. I can't wait for you to meet my family" Paul said. I smiled at the thought of meeting Paul's family and friends.

I took my bag out and put it by the front door. I found Dad and Rose sitting in the lounge room.

"Hey sweetie" Dad said. "Hey" I replied. Me and Paul sat down next to them and watched TV. "I can't believe you are going to be on the other side of the world for a whole month" Rose said. "I know" I said suddenly starting to feel nervous. "You have to call everyday" Rose added. I nodded and promised that I would.

"We should get going" Paul said looking at his watch. "Ok" I said standing up. Dad and Rose got up and walked us to the car. I hugged them both tightly. "I'm going to miss you guys so much" I said trying not to cry. "We're going to miss you to sweetheart" Dad said.

"Now you don't let anything happen to her or you'll have me to answer to" Dad said to Paul. "I'll take good care of her" Paul said. "Good" Dad said.

We said our final goodbyes and then I got into Paul's parents' car. We were driven to the airport and then got on the plane.

"Where are we going to be staying?" I asked as the plane started to take off. "At some hotel that Mom and Dad picked out" Paul said. "We aren't sharing a room with your parents are we?" I asked. "No no no, we have a separate room next to theirs" Paul said. "Ok" I said smiling.

When the seatbelt signs went off, Paul lifted the arm rest and pulled my closer to him. I put my head on his shoulder and shut my eyes. One of the flight attendants came around and have us blankets and Paul put one around us.

"Your hand fits in mine

Like it's made just for me

But bear this in mind

It was meant to be

And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks

And it all makes sense to me

I know you've never loved

The crinkles by your eyes

When you smile

You've never loved

Your stomach or your thighs,

The dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine

But I love them endlessly" Paul sang softly and I soon fell asleep.

"Jess, wake up" Paul said softly. "What?" I mumbled. "We have to put our seatbelts on" he said. "Why?" I asked wondering if we were about to land. "Turbulence or something apparently" Paul said. My body went rigid as I started to freak out a little.

"Sweetie it's going to be fine" Paul said holding my hand. I squeezed it tightly as we started to go through the bumps of the turbulence. "It's alright Jessie" Paul said stealing my hair with his free hand. I let out a small squeak as it got worse.

After a few more minutes it was all calm again and I could go back to sleep.

I woke up after a nice long sleep and felt that Paul had his head rested on top of mine. I looked out the window and saw that the sun was rising. I saw land below us and wondered if we were almost there. I considered asking Paul but I didn't want to wake him up.

A voice came over the loud speaker saying that we were about to land and we had to put our seatbelts on. "Pauly" I said. He didn't move. "Paul" I said again. Still nothing. I decided to try something else. I jabbed his cheek with my finger and he awoke with a start.

"We're landing" I said excitedly. "Awesome" he replied smiling. We gave our blankets back to the flight attendant and then made our descent into Phoenix.

It was a smooth landing and then we went to collect our luggage. We then got into a cab and got to the hotel. After we checked in and got to our rooms I fell asleep almost instantly because I had epic jet lag.
