Torn up. ~Flamingeos Fanfiction

Chapter 54

"Where's Mario?" Geo spat, suddenly angry. My expression now turned to confusion.

"That's what I want to know." I replied, as sassy as possible. I then cringed when Geo gave me an amused glance. 

"His parents rang me to check here. Why are you.." 

His voice trailed off before he could say the word "here". 

"England." Was all I said. All I could manage to say really. I didn't want to say anything else because it would show how upset I was about leaving.

Geo didn't reply. He just scanned the room and then stared back at me, looking hopless this time.

"You need to help me." He hissed, now looking at my parents, obviously not wanting them to hear him. When his eyes met mine he extended his arm and waited for me to grab his hand.

I stared at it for a few seconds. What am I waiting for? I can finally leave and stay in America.

I grabbed it and allowed Juwany to pull me away. I heard my parents yell but Geo was too quick, before you knew it we were outside, no where to be seen.

I couldn't help but feel so elated. My eyes were stuck to him, the fact that I'm standing beside Geo right now seemed unreal. A few minutes ago I thought this would have never of happened again. My parents wont be able to find us because that would mean they would miss the plane. That means.. I'm staying in America. For (possibly) ever. 

But, why am I thinking about all this when I should be worrying about Mario? Where the hell could he be..

"When I asked you where Mario was, why did you say "that's what I want to know"?"

"Because I was annoyed. Sorry, okay-?"

"No, what I mean is why did you want to know where he was as well?" Geo chuckled as I felt my cheeks blush in embarrassment. "Did his parents ask you to look for him as well or were you both meant to meet up or something?"

"We were meant to meet up. He left like two hours ago and he's still not here."

Geo frowned and scanned the airport again through the window which was behind us. There was no still sign of Mario anywhere. There was no sign of my parents too, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. 

We stayed sitting down, staring at the entrance of the airport incase Mario comes in in silence. Ten minutes past and Geo then looked at me. I felt butterflies explode in my stomach when I thought he was going to kiss me, but I was wrong. His eyes stared right into mine. 

"I'm really sorry about Loren." He sighed. "I know you've heard me say sorry so many times but I really do mean it."

I didn't reply because I didn't know whether I should forgive him so easily or not. My friend from primary school used to always tell me to never forigve others easily because then they'll just do it again. 

"Okay." I replied. I knew I was being petty but maybe being petty is worth it. 

We then carried on sitting down in silence, staring for another twenty minutes or so. It was no use, Mario clearly isn't coming here any time soon. 

But where could he be?
