Midnight Memories.

Chapter 8

Sophie's Point Of View.

" You have your passport?" 

" Yes."

" And you packed everything? You sure you didn't forget anything?"

" Yep."

" Lily's present?"

" In the bag."

" What about your handbag? Your money? Y-"

" James! Stop it, I have everything ready." I complained grabbing my phone from my night stand.

" I just feel like Andy's change of plans rattled you, and I don't want you to forget anything." He said grabbing my bag and walking outside as I followed him
" Not that much actually, I just replaced the sweaters with bikinis." I shrugged wondering if I packed my sunblock cream.
" That's great, we need to head to the airport, Ian and Alex are on their way, Andy and Lily are already there, we're late." James said looking at his watch.
" It's your plane, they're not going to fly out without you." 
" That's not the point." James said sending me an amused look.

Andy actually changed the plans yesterday, when he remembered how Lily told him in high school that she always wanted a proposal in the summer, by the sea, at sunset, so of course Venice was off the charts, and we were headed to Hawaii, not that I was complaining, I wanted a little break from the winter here anyway. James called his brother in law, Jasper, to change our booking from Italy to his hotel on the beautiful island and of course it was no problem since he is the owner of the whole chain.

We got into his dear Porsche after his security men loaded the car with bags, yes, James has a security team following him. Apparently he's a very important man.

He started the car, and the car in front of us, and the one behind us, did it too in sync.

" This is a little creepy." I commented taking a look at both cars.

" You get used to it after a while." James said shrugging.

" Why are you taking your car? Are you going to leave it in the airport?" I asked turning in my seat to face him.

" My butler is driving it back to the house." He said like it was no problem, but for me it was.

 " Your butler is allowed to drive your car and I'm not?" I shouted startling him a little as he was concentrated on driving.

" My butler actually knows how to drive." He said giving me a calm-down-woman look.

" Oh my god, how rude." I gasped sarcastically and James chuckled moving hand right hand to rub my knee.

" Maybe I'll let you drive it when we come back." 

" You better." I muttered as he laughed at me.

We arrived at the airport about 20 minutes later, it was 7 am and the sun just came up, and i was insanely cold. All of our friends were waiting for us outside the jet, as James's men loaded the plane with all of our bags.

" Guys, somebody tell me where we are going, please." Lily said jumping up and down in her place excitedly.

" Where did you get all that energy from? It's 7 in the freaking morning!" Ian groaned rubbing his eyes.

" Yeah, she didn't exactly get any sleep last night." Andrew said wrapping an arm around his fiance to be shoulder to keep her still.

" Are we ready to go or what? I'm freezing!" I said rubbing my hands together to get some warmth, but it didn't work at all and I longed to soak in the sun for long hours.
