I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth

-Fade Into You (Mazzy Star)

Rhiannons P.O.V

I didn't mean to hug him. Ok, I did. But, I didn't mean to hold on so long. He didn't seem to mind. He still had that familiar scent of cigarette smoke and musk. Funny how I remembered that after two years.

"Where are the rest of the guys?" I asked as I pulled away from Noel. The hug was getting to personal. I was technically single now, but I still felt guilty.

"All over the place. I think Tony isn't to far actually." He says as he looks up over the seats for his fellow band mate. I pull on his arm.

"No, I want to surprise them" I say. Seeing the look on their faces would be priceless.

"We best keep quiet then." He declares. I let out a small yawn. Man, was I tired. Noel let's out laugh.

"Your already falling asleep on me?" He adds with a laughing grin.

"Its a lot of work trying to breakup with your boyfriend, quite your job, drop your classes, and gather your belongings in a two day period."

"Wait! Hold up! Your moving back to Manchester?" Noel asked.

"Yes, sir." Noel smiles wide.

"That is great news. But, what happened with you that block you were seeing?"

"I broke up with him?" I shrug.

"Why?" Noel ask.

"Because, he wasn't the guy I want." I confess.

"Who do you want?" Of coarse Noel asked that. I think for a second. I didn't want to think about that. Breaking up with Eli was too fresh to even think about dating again. 

"To be honest. I am not sure. I am still trying to figure things out."

"Well, I can tell you who t be with." I knew he was thinking Liam. .

"Liam?" I say with a question. Liam was so helpless the other night. All I could think about was those puppy dog eyes pleading for me to run back to him.

"Fuck no!" He adds with a sarcastic laugh. His eyes fill with softness.

"Me, Rhi. Be with me."

Noels P.O.V

Rhi was sleeping on my shoulder. She didn't start that way to begin with. I think she was mad when I told her she should be with me. I knew she still loved my stupid brother. I would make her be mine. I knew she had some feelings for me, or else she would have never kissed me TWICE. I wasn't gonna let her away easily, not again. I looked down at her. She had gotten more beautiful over the years, if that was even possible. But, she had this drained look on her. A small piece of her brown hair was hanging in-front of her face. I pushed it gently behind her ear. She nuzzled in closer to me. I knew she wasn't aware of what she was doing, but this made my heart race. I bend down and kiss her forehead gently. I couldn't help it. Just a few days ago I swore up and down I was over her, but I totally wasn't not even the slightest bit.

"Hey are you in that band Oasis?" A guy across the ask. This was a common occurrence now. We were getting more and more recognized as we got bigger and bigger. It was kinda nice. At first we were just these lads from Manchester, now we were heading for the big lights.

"Yeah, man. Lead guitarist." I add.

"I went with my son to one of your gigs. He can't wait for your album to come out. I'm more of a Rod Stewart fan. But, I just say you make good music. Good luck to you mate."

"Thanks." I nod.

"That your girlfriend?" He ask in his Irish accent. I look down at her. Still sleeping like an angel.

"Yes, she is?" I lie. It felt great to say it. But, I wish it was true.

"I wish you two many years of happiness." He adds with a friendly smile. Ha, if only that were true. I let out a small disappointed sigh and close my eyes.

Rhi's P.O.V

"Wake up! We are landed. Wake up, Lorri." I hear. I slowly open my eyes to the bright light. I groan.

"You slept practically the whole fight, on my shoulder." Noel says with slight laughter. I blush. There is a huge wet spot on his track jacket. Even more of a reason to blush. I never drooled when sleeping, and this had to be the time that I did. 

"I am sorry about your jacket. I bet that was expensive." I apologize.

"Nah, it's ok. I have two more like it. Also, it was kinda adorable." He winks. I ignore his flirting and unbuckle my seat belt.

"How about you go and I'll hang back, and surprise them say, tomorrow." I grinned.

"Alright. I will act like I didn't even know you came home." Noel comments. He smiles at me as he walks off into the aisle. Before I left Manchester he admitted he loved me. Back then I was torn between Liam and Noel it was the reason I left. Now hear I was two years later still struggling with the same problem I once had. I didn't want to be torn at all. I wanted to happily be with Liam, not with Noel making me confused every-time he talked. Seeing Liam would make everything better.

Liam's P.O.V

Such a long fucking flight. It was great to be back home, for a while anyway. Me, Bonehead, Guigsy, and Tony were all waiting for Noel. He was taking a lot longer than us to get off the plane. Probably flirting with some bird. 

"What took so long, mate?" Bonehead asked Noel as walked up to us.

"Just got stuck behind people, that is it."

"Didn't join the mile high club, huh?" Guigsy asked with a cheeky grin.

"Can't say I haven't, yet anyway."

"Of all people you haven't shagged a girl on a plane?" Bonehead joked.

"Nah, I'm saving it for someone special." I roll my eyes. He took the rock and roll scene to seriously. Hardly got wasted, didn't do many drugs, and hardly had a shag. He was to focused on the music, and not the fun part. But, maybe someone needed to be. 

"What are we waiting for?" I ask as I tap my foot the on the floor. It seemed like we were standing around for no reason.

"Can't we just stand? We have been sitting in the plane for hours and hours." Noel remarked. I groan. I wanted to get back home. 

I see the familiar flash of that mane of auburn hair. It was Rhiannon. My heart stopped in my throat. Maybe it was a figment of my imagination. 

"Hey, that is Rhi." I call out to the guys as they start walking away.

"Your seeing things Liam, come on. What drug did you fucking take?" Noel ushers. I roll my eyes. I was sober as all hell. I would know her anywhere. I had her memorized from her amazing heart  all the way to her gorgeous tits.
