"Is your mom picking us up from the airport?" I turn to look at Harry and nod.

We have been on the plane for about four hours now. We should be landing soon.

"These chips are disgusting." Harry places the bag of pickle flavored chips on the tray that is attached to the seat in front of him. "Why would you get chips that taste like pickles? You hate pickles." I raise my eyebrow at him.

"I don't know Lyd, maybe because I'm starving on this god damn plane and the only selection they had was the chips or pudding and I am not eating plane pudding." I laugh at him and he scowls at me which makes me laugh harder.

"When are we going to be off this thing? I don't think I can stand sitting next to this repulsive human being for another hour." Harry leans his head towards the large man sitting next to him that smells and is drenched in sweat. He has large pit stains that are clearly visible and beads of sweat are falling down his face. "Why the hell is he sweating so much? Someone please get this guy a towel and fan."

I hide my face in Harry's shoulder and try not to laugh so hard. "Harry, stop. You're going to make me pee from laughing so much." Harry looks at me with a disgusted look. "Please don't, there is enough warm fluid being conceived you don't need to add to it." I cover my mouth with my hand, holding in my laughter.

The pilot's voice comes on through the intercom. "Please turn off any electronic devices and stay in your seat. We will be landing in five minutes."

"Thank god." Harry huffs.

After we get our bags from baggage claim, me and Harry sit on a bench and wait for my mom. "I am ready to be in bed and sleep." Harry rests his head on my shoulder.

"I know." When I see my mother she has the biggest smile on her face. "My mom is here." I tell Harry and we stand up from the bench. My mom walks over to us and gives me a hug.

When she pulls away she looks at Harry and smiles. "You must be Harry!" She wraps her arms around him. He looks at me with wide eyes then awkwardly hugs her back. "You two look like you could use a nap. Let's hurry and get home."

........

By the time we get to my mother's house Harry is asleep on my shoulder. I push him and he falls the other way and hits his head on the window. "What the hell." He rubs his head and looks at me.

"Sorry I didn't mean to do that." I try not to laugh. "We're here." He wipes his eyes with the back of his hand and slowly opens the car door.

We grab our bags from the trunk and follow behind my mom into the house.

"Your father is still at work and Candice is with Kyle at dinner. You can take your stuff upstairs and go to bed if you would like." She tells us and we walk upstairs into my old bedroom.

Harry throws his bag on the floor and jumps onto the bed. "Oh my god it's a bed!" He grabs my wrist and pulls me towards him. "Come lay with me." He moves over on the bed and I lay next to him. He wraps his arm around my waist pulling me closer to his body.
