Once In A Lifetime

Interlocked

Maddie's POV:

"Please tell me where we're going!" I whined.

"No." Ash said.

"Please."

"No."

"You're not gonna tell me ever are you?" I asked him.

"Probably not." He said.

We had been on the plane for ten hours at this point, and Ash still won't tell me where we're going. I asked if we were going to London to see Harry and his mum or Paris, but he dismissed those very quickly.

Apparently we still had 4 hours and 45 minutes left of the flight, and I have no idea what to do with the spare time.

I decided to read a book for a little bit, but the fact that I didn't know where we were going was bugging me terribly.

"You're not gonna tell me are you?" I asked him.

"Nope, you'll find out soon enough." He replied.

He stood up, and offered his hand to me. I took it, and he immediately pulled me into a hug.

"I love you so much Madison."

"I love you too Ashton."

"But seriously though. Thank you for putting up with me all the time."

"Why wouldn't I?" I asked, breaking the hug to look up at him.

"Because I do crazy stuff like this." He said motioning to the plane.

"That doesn't matter to me. I love you for you. Not for the money you have or the stuff you have. It doesn't matter. And this," I said motioning to the plane, "is just an adventure between a couple, and I find it awfully romantic even though I don't know where we're going."

He didn't say anything, he just smiled. He went to use the bathroom, and I sat back down in my seat. Somewhere during the flight, I wound up falling asleep.

"Maddie. Maddie. Its time to get up love."

"What is it?!?" I screeched, pulling the blankets further over me.

"Well someone's grouchy in the mornings!" He said putting both his hands up and backing away.

"Either way, get dressed, its time to go." He told me.

"Where exactly are we going? We're on a plane, at least 5000 feet in the air."

"Not exactly." He said pointing out the window.

I stood up, walked over to the window, and looked outside. There was concrete, buildings, the usual, but we were no longer in the air.

"When did we land?" I asked looking back over at Ash.

"Huh? Oh, at about six this morning." He said, checking his phone.

"Why didn't you wake me up when we landed?"

"Because you needed sleep. And judging by the way you acted a few minutes ago, you need more." He said with a look on his face saying that he knew he was right.

"Hey! Well... Okay. Its true." I laughed.

I got up and went to go get ready for the day, unsure of what to wear. I decided to go with a purple shirt, a navy blue flannel, black shorts, and black combat boots. I only put on mascara, and I hoped from there that it would be good enough since I had no idea where we were or what we were doing.

"So now are you gonna tell me where we're going?" I asked Ashton with my hands on my hips.

"You look great!" He said, "but no."

"Fine."

We hooked arms, and we got off of the plane, and suddenly I was hit with a blast of heat.

"It's hot..." I said casually.

"Well I would expect it to be hot in Australia." Ash said, but he immediately covered his mouth.

"What did you just say?" I asked.

"Nothing." He squeaked.

"Did you just say that we're in Australia?"

"Maybe.." His voice getting more and more high pitched. "Is that a bad thing?" He started backing away slowly.

"Ash! That's awesome!!" I ran over and gave him a hug. He picked me up and spun me around.

"I told you that you would like it love!" He said, the grin getting bigger and bigger on his face.

"I love it so much!! Wait, why did you do this in the first place?"

"I told you. There's someone we're meeting later tonight."

"Who who who?!?" I asked jumping up and down like a maniac.

"Someone." He said, and he grabbed ahold of my shoulders and pulled me into a kiss.

For a brief moment, I was speechless.

"Well okay then." I said. "Was that a really nice way of telling me to shut up?"

"Little bit." He said holding up two fingers to show 'a little bit'.

"Well it worked." I said grabbing his hand in mine.

Our fingers interlocked, and we began walking. We didn't know where. All we knew was that we were with each other, and that was everything.

And the suspense keeps building! Love you guys! Again, how many of you are harry potter fans?!? Its really important! -The Author
