Josh carried Chloe all the way to the tunnel where they would board our plane to Gary's ''house'' as normally it is not actually their house but a rented place or hotel. Josh lowered Chloe down and she jumped out of his arms, thanking him after before they hand their tickets to the what looked to be maybe twenty-five year old lady and pass through the tunnel and climbed aboard the plane. Everyone soon found their seats in first class (OMG!) and placed their hand baggage up into the storage shelves above (Which Josh and Jay helped Shannon and Chloe with as they couldn't reach). That whole process didn't take long and during it Chloe and Shannon found out who was sitting around them but not next to them as of yet. Josh and Matt were sitting to the left of Chloe and in front of Shannon in their own little compartment of first class. Becky and Summer were behind Chloe but to the right of Shannon.

Deep engrossed in a conversation with Josh and Matt, Chloe didn't realize the seat next to her had suddenly gained an occupant.

“Hey Con!” Matt greeted.

“How the hell are you sitting there?” Chloe questioned with a giggle, pretty surprised that by ''coincidence'' Connor ended up sitting there.

“Well...” He trailed. “It involved a whole lot of sneakily switching tickets, puppy dog eyes and persuading.”

She laughed; “Seriously?”. He nodded.

Meanwhile, Shannon was already zoned out into her fantasy land which involved Channing Tatum and a book called 'Dear John' by Nicolas Sparks.

“Whatcha' readin'?” A voice asked Shannon, making her jump literally out of her skin and give her a heart attack.

“Oh my bloody God, you scared me, Thompson! Wait how are sitting there?”

“With a whole lot of persuading you see.”

The two laughed, something they did for near enough the whole duration of the flight along with taking turns reading the book in a stupid accent. Half way through the flight Shannon suddenly felt tried and lent against Thompson as he read a chapter in his normal, calming voice and Shannon soon ended up falling fast asleep.

Connor and Chloe spent the whole flight laughing, messing about, joking, taking pictures and filming random videos that would probably end up on Youtube somehow.

Resting her head on Connor's shoulder Chloe let tiredness take control of her entire body while her eyes tightly closed. The next thing she knew she was being gently shook awake from her deep and peaceful sleep. She groaned but opened her eyes slowly anyway to reveal a wide smiling Connor stood in front of her, who in his hand held not only his own but Chloe's hand luggage.

“What?” She whined, shielding her eyes from the blinding lights of the airplane and natural outside light seeping through the windows and open door which was letting the dense swarm of passengers out.

“Come on. We've landed!” Connor excitably exclaimed while outstretching his hand to her.

Chloe took hold of his hand without hesitation before they both froze and looked at each other as the sparks bolted through her body and obviously his.

An elderly woman pushing Connor out of her way was what snapped them quickly out of their trance and back into the real world. Forgetting what just happened, Chloe pulled myself up using Connor's hand and started to make her way out of the plane with Connor hot on her heels.

A similar event happened between Shannon and Thompson; Shannon was fast asleep against Thompson's shoulder.

“Shann, Shann, Shannnnn! Wake up!”

“Go away!” Shannon groaned, covering her face with her hands.

“But we've landed! We're in New York!”

Shannon groaned and opened her eyes to reveal a wide grinning Thompson standing in front of her, holding hers and his own hand luggage. Thompson put down Shannon's luggage on his seat he previously sat in and held out a hand to help Shannon up with. Shannon grabbed it and froze, along with Thompson. They just stared at each other as the sparks ignited around their bodies.

“Bro, move!” Jay yelled at Thompson, pushing him to the side which ended up him falling right on top of Shannon (which she secretly enjoyed).

“A-hem, I'm, uh, s-sorry.” Thompson apologized, standing up and helping Shannon up before they both quickly made their way off the plane.

Wheeling their suitcases behind them, Chloe, Shannon, Thompson and Connor searched around the airport for the other groups which should be still here. Unless you know they took the car and started the journey to our mentors house because knowing their luck they have. A nudge on Shannon's arm and a head nod to the east of us off Thompson is what made her notice the rest of the groups waiting around deep in conversation. The four quickly broke into a sprint, well their best effort of a sprint while tugging a heavy suitcase and a equally heavy shoulder bad behind you. Once they reached the other groups they all turned towards us, smirks painted upon their lips.

“What took you so long?” Jay asked. I shrugged and turned to Greg waiting for him to answer.

“Uh, problems with the luggage.” Thompson and Connor lied in unison.

“Right...” Josh trailed obviously not believing Thompson or Connor in the slightest.

“The car is here!” A member of Rough Copy, who neither Shannon or Chloe have yet to learn their name, shouted.
