Do You Remember Me?

Chapter 9~ Home

Alex's POV:

"Wake up." I hear a voice say. I can tell its Justin's. My eyes slowly flutter open as the morning sun comes in the windows of the plane. 

"What the hell?" I say sitting up as Justin laughs. "When did we get on a plane?" 

Justin sits there and laughs until he finally gains back control of himself. "Well." he starts. "I carried you on here because you fell asleep on the tour bus and I didn't wanna wake you up because you looked so at ease and peaceful. Now we're in Stratford though so you needed to get up."

I look out the window of the plane and see that we have landed. "What time is it?" I say looking back over at Justin. 

"10:00 in the morning." He replies with a smile. Just then my phone dings. Its been dead most of the trip but I guess Justin plugged it in an outlet he found or something on the plane. I pick it up and see that across the screen it reads Mommy. Oh shit! I have barely texted her! She doesn't even know Justin and I are dating yet even though I'm about 100% sure Pattie has told her by now. I slowly unlock my phone and type in my passcode. I read the message to myself: "Why haven't you texted me lately? I heard you and Justin are dating! When you get home to Stratford come and see me! Love you!" Is all it said. I look up at Justin who is gathering our things and quickly respond: "Okay! We just landed and Justin is gathering our things but I think I need to help him or I'll feel bad! I'll see what the schedule is like today! I will try to come home. Miss you!" I press send and then lock my phone back. 

"Hey, I got your stuff babe c'mon lets go." Justin says and exits the plane.

"Where are Chaz and Ryan?" I ask as I follow him. 

"They already left. We've actually been landed for about two hours and they tried to stay here until you woke up but, then they gave up and left to go sleep in their beds at home." Justin replies. 

"Oh." I say. "Do you need help? I can carry my bags if you want." 

"No, its fine." Justin says. 

"Oh, well okay, my Mom wanted to know if we could come over for a little bit today. You know she hasn't seen you in forever and she wants to see me since she hasn't seen me since I tried out to be your background dancer." I say. 

"Okay. I have plans with Chaz and Ryan so what time is this going to be?" He asks. I can tell something is bothering him but ignore it and move on. 

"I don't know. I guess now or whenever." I say with a small smile. 

"We can go now because I have plans with Chaz and Ryan at 1:00 p.m. so lets go." He says. 

"Okay well am I going to see you again today?" I ask as if it was obvious he should've answered it earlier. 

"Most likely." Justin says with a wink. 

I smile a little. "Good." 

--

We pulled in the driveway to my house. It was pretty big and has four stories. Justin and I hopped out of the car and before I could get my things, Justin was back at the trunk getting them for me. 

"I can get those." I say with a tiny laugh. 

"No babe, I got it." He says and I shut the trunk back.

We walk through the garage and to the door. I open it and inhale the same scent that has always been in my house. Its the smell of coffee with a little vanilla in it.
