A few days passed and Dylan managed to get over his father's death. Not completely, but i had a feeling he was doing better. Still, i couldn't ignore his paleness. I knew he didn't get enough sleep, but i didn't dare to ask why. I kept my mouth shut. I got better and better at acting and Tasha was proud of me. But she also tried to tease me with my crush on Dylan. I tried to ignore that.
And then, finally, the day of New Zealand game. I convinced my parents 2 days ago to let me fly. Only my argument 'it's for my career' made them believe me. I got up really early. I felt slightly unwell, because i wasn't used to waking up at 3 a clock in the morning. But the plane was flying early. And Kevin expected me to be there in time. I blamed him for this stupid departure time. He was the one who booked it. I almost slept in, when i started brushing my teeth. I really needed a coffee. And i was a little nervous. Again. It was a part of all this acting.
I still didn't know, next to whom i'd be sitting in the aircraft. Somehow now i wanted to end up next to Dylan... I was ready to slao myself for my thoughts. I shouldn't be thinking of Dylan this much. He was just a guy i was working with and... No. He wasn't a simple guy. He was him. The most special man on planet earth. Okay, i am officially going crazy.
I put on some comfortable clothes and ate a bowl of cornflakes. It was the only food that didn't make me puke right now. When i was about to go out of the house, Tasha called me.
"Hello."i said with a sleepy voice.
"Hey, Cam! I wanted to ask you something."
"Hmm..."
Why was Tashas voice so perfectly awake?
"Will you be sharing a room with Dylan?"
"I really don't know."
"I guess you will. Anyway: what if you can get together with him?"
"What the hell, Tasha? Are you completely out of your freaking mind? First, he has a girlfriend. Second, he is freaking famous. Third, i... i don't know what number 3 is. But that doesn't matter. What matters, is the fact, that you are giving me false hope and that's the last thing i need! Do you understand me?"
Tasha kept quiet. For a whole minute. Now i felt like i freaked out a little too much. But it was the truth! Bitter truth...
"Okay."
Tasha spoke really quiet.
"Okay, Cammie. Bye."she said and hung up.
Well now, i felt like the worst friend. I sighted and waited in this freezing cold for the bus. Why did everything go wrong? Why?
In three minutes the bus arrived. This time, i was the only passenger.
"Where are you going this late, Miss?"asked the bus driver.
"Umm, i am going to the airport."i said.
"Good. I will jusy drive you there, since... there is no one else."said the bus driver.
"Okay."i said and set down.
I looked oh the display of my phone, waiting for Tasha to call me back. I didn't want to be the first one calling. But maybe i should...
Suddenly Dylans name appeared on the screen. I stared at it for a few seconds. He was calling. Was i supposed to answer? I just did.
"Hi."i whispered. Why was i whispering? I sounded like a dying cat. Great.
"Hi. Are you on your way?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well, Kevin is getting a little unpacient."
He sounded amused.
"Damn it. I probably set my watch wrong, or-"
"I was just kidding."he laughed.
"Are you crazy? You almost gave me a heartattack."i mumbled.
"You are kinda cute when you get nervous, you know."
Oh. My. God. Did he actually say that or did i hallucinate? My heart was breaking my chest from inside. It was beating so fast. And my mouth suddenly felt totally dry. I was searching dor words that would sound cool, but my mind was empty. I had no idea what to say.
"Getting nervous again?"he said. He seemed amused about how he was affecting me. Only one word out of his moth could turn me into an iceblock, which was unable to speak a straight word.
"Anyway, you should hurry."
"Uh, yes. I will."i finally said.
"Good. I really don't want to fly, to be honest."he sighted.
"Why?"
"I am air sick, actually. I know it's very embarrassing."he admitted.
"Well seems like the great Dylan O'Brien also has his weaknesses, doesn't he?"i grinned.
"The truth gets revealed... when you face reality."he said sarcastically.
"Dramatic."
"Indeed."he said with a fake seriousness.
"See you soon."i said.
"Bye."
He broke the connection.
I shut my phone off and stared out of the window. He said i was cute. Was he serious? I couldn't be sure, Dylan was pretty ironic and maybe he was just making fun of me. That would mske more sence. But i felt a weird feeling in my stomach, that i tried to deny since the day i talked to Dylan for the first time.
The bus stopped and i got out. The airport was right im front of me. I fastly wrote an SMS to Tasha:I just talked to Dylan per phone and he called me cute. What does that mean??? Help me! Xoxo, Cammie
I pressed send and put my phone away. Now i entered the airport. It was full and i didn't know where to find the crew and the cast. Was i allowed to ask someone, or was Dylan incognito here? Probably.
When i was about to give up, someone grabbed my arm.
"This way, Green!"
I looked to that person. It was Mason and he was smiling.
"Sorry, i didn't know where to look for you guys."i said.
"It's okay, but we should go check in now. Everyone there or is someone still missing?"asked Kevin.
"Nope. Everyone is here. Except my bed, where i really want to be sleeping right now."said Dylan.
"Shut it, O'Brien. We all would love to sleep. But New Zealand is calling."announced Kevin.
Almost everyone sighted.
"Hi."smiled Zoe.
"Hey."i greeted back.
"We will sit next to eachother in the airplane, by the way."she explained.
"Apropos sitting, everyone is first class. So i believe you won't miss your bed too much, Dylan."said Mason.
"First class?"i asked.
"Yes."Kevin answered.
Well that was perfect. I never flew first class before. Seemed like acting had an advantage.
I noticed, that Dylan has grown a beard and he pulled his hootie deep in his face. That's how he was hiding from fans. I kind of liked the beard.
We checked in and soon got on the plane. It wasn't even boarding time yet, but we were already allowed, because of the VIP-thing. The seats were really comfortable. Then i got a message from Tasha:And you still don't feel like you two have a chance? You have to try. I am gonna think of a shipname for you guys. Love, Tasha
I rolled with my eyes. Typical Tasha. I wrote back:
Don't you even dare. Dylan obviously loves Britt, he always talks about her. Cammie
Before i could think of how comlicated my life has become, i slept in.
I woke up at the end of the flight. Zoe was watching a movie.
"What are you watching?"i asked.
"Don't laugh: Legally blonde. It's good."explained Zoe. Then she gave me a pack of chips.
"Try it. It's really tasty."she said.
I took a piece and almost spit it out again. It tasted like plastic. Zoe started laughing.
"You fell for it!"she grinned.
"Hahaha."i said ironically, trying to get the bad taste out of my mouth by drinking water. It wasn't very successful.
There was an announcement, that we would land soon. I could see New Zealand through the little airplane window. That time i didn't know, what would happen in this country.-----------------------------------------
So does anybody have an idea for Cammies + Dylans shipname? Ily guys, allisonsdemons
