~Emmalyn's POV~
I grab my car keys, a pillow, and my plane tickets. I turn my music up and listen to pop hits and country music. It takes me an hour to get to the airport, and when I get there, there is a two hour delay due to bad weather. I sit in the waiting area when someone sits down next to me and says hello. I turn around to see a tall, brown haired guy with blue eyes.
"Hi, my name is Emmalyn Smith. You are?"
"My name is Landon Jones. It is nice to meet you Emmalyn."
"It's nice to meet you too."
"What plane are you waiting for?"
"I'm waiting for the only one that's for Ohio. I'm heading to Colorado, but my plane is delayed two hours due to bad weather." I said.
"Wait, you're going to Colorado too?"
"Yeah. Are you?"
"Yeah, what's your seat number?"
"1A."
"Mine's 1B!"
"Awesome! We can keep talking?"
"Totally!"
"Plane for Ohio, please head to Gate E," the intercom said.
"There's our plane."
"Yup! Let's go!" he said grabbing my hand. We grabbed our luggage and headed to the gate hand in hand.
Once we had gotten on our plane and gotten in our seats, we started playing 20 questions.
"What's your favorite color?"
"Red."
"Hobby?"
"Oh! Definitely writing!"
"Food?"
"Pizza."
"Dessert?"
"Anything chocolate."
"Okay, your turn!"
"Okay, color?"
"Red."
"Hobby?"
"Reading!"
"Food?"
"Pancakes."
"Dessert?"
"Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream."
"Yum!"
"I know!" We played for a little longer, then I fell asleep on his shoulder. When I woke up, he was asleep and his hand was on my thigh. I managed to get out of his hold without him waking up. I walked into the bathroom, and when I got back, he was starting to wake up. "Hello, sleepyhead" I said laughing.
"Hey Emmalyn," he said groggily. "What time is it?"
I grab my phone and it read, "11:30 P.M."
"Wow, and when does the plane land?"
"I'm not rea-" I was interrupted by the intercom saying "We are about to land. Please sit in your seats and buckle up."
"There we go! We are about to land."
"Okay."
"You want to know something, Landon?"
"Sure, what's up?"
"I'm going to Colorado to meet my fiancee, but I really don't want to meet with him..."
"Okay?"
"Why are you going?"
"I'm going to visit."
"Family?"
"No, just to visit my hometown."
"Oh... I hate to ask this of this but..." I trailed off.
"You want me to come with you?"
"Yeah... you don't have to if you don't want too!"
"No! I will!"
"Thank you!" I said, putting my head on his shoulder.
"You're welcome! If you don't mind me asking, why do you not want to meet him?"
"Because I like someone else and I've only just met him."
"Who?"
"You, silly! I've only just met you and I connect better with you then anyone else. You are easy to talk to, and Parker was never easy to talk to."
"I think so too! I really like you, Emmalyn!"
~Landon's POV~
Her lips were so soft, and I really wanted to kiss her. Then she told me she liked me and I told her the truth, I liked her too! I give her a quick peck on the cheek, catching her off guard. Then she gets up because people are leaving the plane. "Oh, we need to get on our next plane." Emmalyn says. I grab our bags and put my backpack on my back. I hand her her bag. I grab her free hand and we hold hands all the way to our next gate. When we get to our next gate, we were told that there was a delay due to bad weather. "How about we go get some food?" I suggested. We go to a restaurant that's next to our gate. It's not very busy seeing as it's really late, but the food was really good. Then I hear... "Plane for Colorado, delayed until tomorrow morning because of bad weather."
"Emmalyn? Did you hear that?" I look over and she is typing away at her phone. "Emmalyn, did you hear that?" I repeat.
"Hear what, Landon?" she asked putting her phone on the table.
"The plane is delayed until tomorrow morning!"
"What? NO! NO! NO! Where are we goi-" as Emmalyn goes on her rant, I look up hotels by where we are and find one next to the airport.
"Emmalyn! While you were on your rant, I looked up a hotel nearby and found one next to the airport."
"Okay, let's head over there then." she said calming down.
"Let's go." On our way out, we ask when our plane will be leaving the next morning. We find out that is leaving at noon. We grab our luggage again and head out to the hotel. When we get into the room, we only see one bed and our eyes open wide.
"Do we have to share the bed?"
"If you don't mind sharing then we will. If it makes you feel weird, I can sleep on the couch and you can take the bed."
"I don't mind sharing, but know it will be awkward for a little bit."
"Okay. Now, I'm going to take a shower. Are you taking one later?"
"Yeah. I'll take one when you are done." I hop in the shower and once I start cleaning up, I realize I forgot my clothes. I'm so used to living alone and just going to my room after a shower, I just didn't think about bringing them in. I quickly ask Emmalyn if it was okay if she say me with a towel on my lower half and she said it was fine. I finish up and grab my towel. After I get dressed, I ask Emmalyn, "Did you tell Parker your plane was delayed?" When she comes out she climbs into bed and turns on The Notebook. I lay down next to her and grab my phone. We finish up the movie, and then I tell Emmalyn that we should probably go to bed because we need to up early tomorrow. She turns the television off and lays down. Emma turns to me and gives me a kiss on the cheek then turns back around. I wrap my arm around her waist and pull her closer to me. "Good night, Emmalyn."
"Good night, Landon." and with that I fell asleep with her at my side.
~Emmalyn's POV~
When I wake up in the morning, the room smells like coffee. Landon is making us coffee. He looks up to see me trying to roll out of bed, he comes over and picks me up, and carries me to a bar chair in the kitchen. I grab my cup of coffee and thank him for it. When I look at the time and it is 10:40 a.m. "Landon! We need to hurry up if we are going to make it to our plane on time."
"Okay!" He quickly finishes up his coffee and grabs a towel. I grab a towel, my clothes, and my makeup and get ready to get in the shower. While I wait, I pack up the things I won't need after my shower. I roll my suitcase next to the front door of the hotel room. When Landon comes out, he is in just a towel because he forgot his clothes again. I blush, close my eyes and giggle. He walks past me and gives me a kiss on the cheek. I blush even harder and grab my stuff. I quickly take a shower and put on my makeup. I go to where I placed my clothes and put them on quickly. When we are all done, it was 11:45 and our plane left by noon. We hurried to the airport and we are very relieved when we made it to our plane on time.
~Landon's POV~
We get off our plane at at three o'clock. Emmalyn calls her fiancee and tells him that she has landed and she is bringing someone with her. We check into our hotel and I realize I didn't get Emmalyn's number. "Hey Emmy?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I have your number? I never got it for you."
"Yeah" I handed her my phone and she handed me hers. While I'm putting my number in her phone Parker texts Emmalyn asking when we were meeting up. I ask Emmalyn if she would like me to respond.
"Yeah, go ahead."
"Okay. When do you want to meet up?"
"How about in 15 minutes?"
"Okay!" I say as I type away. He texts back within seconds, saying he'll be there and he is bringing someone.
"He said he will be there and he is bringing someone as well."
"Okay." She grabs her purse and hands me back her phone. I hand her back her phone and grab my car keys.
We head to Little Miss Cake and Coffee. When we got there, it seems very empty except for one guy in the corner, reading a newspaper. Emmalyn and I sit down at a table for two and wait for Parker and his plus one to arrive. He finally came 10 minutes late and had a girl with him. Emmalyn stood up to greet him. "Parker, hi! How are you doing?"
"I am doing well, and you?" He gave her a kiss on the cheek and for some reason I tensed up and did not realize I was holding my breath. She, then, turned to me and introduced me to Parker.
"It is nice to meet you, Landon!"
"It is nice to meet you too." We then do a tense handshake and head to our table. After a while of talking, Parker says to Emmalyn that he doesn't want to get back together and introduces Rachel to us. Apparently Rachel is his girlfriend. I can see Emmalyn's face fill with hurt. She says okay and grabs her purse, running out of the shop. I glare at Parker. "You son of a ---!" I trail off. After that I run after Emmalyn.
~Emmalyn's POV~
"I don't want to get back together." This is ringing in my ears. "Wait! Why do I care if he doesn't want to get together? I have Landon!" I thought to myself. My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on our hotel door. Landon came in with a couple plastic bags. "What is in the bags?" I ask him. He hands me the bags and motions for me to open them. "You remembered!"
"Yeah! Of course I did, Emma!" He goes into the kitchen, grabs some spoons, hands me the spoons and my computer and we watch sappy romance movies and eat the chocolate.
~Landon's POV~
After a couple sappy movies, we have eaten all the chocolate and Emmalyn has fallen asleep on my chest. I turn to look at the alarm clock and it reads 2:30 a.m. I pause our current movie, move Emmalyn's computer to my nightstand, and shift Emmalyn a bit, so I can cover us both up with the blankets. Shortly after, I fall asleep with Emmalyn still on my chest fast asleep.
******************
When I wake up, Emmalyn is still asleep. I move her off my chest, get up, get dressed and go to get coffee. We are staying for a couple more days. Well, Emmalyn is staying for a couple more days, and I think I'm going to stay with her. I really really like Emmalyn and I want to get to know her more. When I get back, Emmalyn is awake, has showered, and is sitting on our bed eating cereal. "How'd you sleep?"
"I slept well! You?"
Good! I brought you coffee."
"Thanks!" she said taking it. She finishes her cereal and puts her coffee on the night stand. I turn on some romantic, slow music. We dance around the hotel room. She gives me a hug and thanks me.
"What for?"
"For being here and making me laugh!"
"You're welcome!" I gave her a kiss on the cheek. Before I get to her cheek, she turns her head so I give her a kiss on the lips. I stand there for a couple seconds in shock. She backs away, the hurt flashing in her eyes. She grabs her key and tells me she'll be back. Before I could grab her arm, she's out the door. I open the door to see her waiting for the elevator. I can see the tears running down her face. I run to her and she steps in the elevator and I step in too. We stand there for a second, then I walk over to her and kiss her on the lips. We break apart and se presses the number 8, so we can go back to our room. We grab our coats and phones and head out to find something to do.
~Later that day~
We saw all of what we wanted to see and we are going to get dinner. We walk in and sit down. A waiter and A waitress come over to our table. The waitress starts flirting with me and the waiter starts flirting with Emmalyn. Emmalyn and I are both shifting uncomfortably. I grab my phone and text Emmalyn. "Hey, what if we tell them we are married. It will get them to stop flirting with us."
"Yes! Let's do it!" Together we say we are married, and their faces paled. They took our order, took them to the kitchen, and brought them back. When we were done eating, we went back to the hotel.
~The Next Day~
I woke up and Emmalyn was gone! I called and texted her and got no reply and that's really when I started freaking out. I went downstairs and asked about it and they said a guy named Parker came in then left with someone that fits Emmalyn's description. I called the police and told her what was wrong and told them they need to look for her. The police told me if I go look then I need to be careful.
~Emmalyn's POV~
I woke up and reached for my phone, but it wasn't there. I tried to turn around, but I couldn't move. Where am I? Where's Landon?" I hear a door open and a light turned on. Rachel came downstairs with some breakfast and my phone. She told me to text Landon that I'm okay and that I'll meet him for lunch tomorrow morning while Parker's at a meeting. He say "Omgosh you are okay! I'll meet you there."
~The Next Morning~
Rachel comes downstairs and helps me out. We go to where we are meeting Landon and wait.
~Parker's POV~
I turn around and see Landon following me. I grab the gun that was in my pocket and pointed it at his heart. "Don't move another step, or I shoot!" People hear me shouting and start crowding around. Then I see Rachel and Emmalyn come outside. I start yelling at Rachel then Emmalyn yells, "NO! You know what Parker! I don't like you anymore! Actually, Landon and I know a lot about each other and we've only know one another for a week!"
"BUT YOU'RE MINE!"
"NO! I'm not yours! I haven't been your since the day before our wedding. I was single until I met Landon and I LOVE Landon and you can't change that!" Landon takes my gun and gives it to the cop who is coming over to me to arrest me. I end up going to jail and end up with a curse put on me by Rachel.
~2 years later~
~Landon's POV~
~6:10 p.m.~
I moved in with Emmalyn and today is the day I am proposing to her. We have been together for two years. Today, two years ago, Emmalyn and I met at an airport on the way to Colorado. At 7:30 p.m., I am going to propose to her. I have flowers, chocolate, and breakfast for her. When I wake her up, I give her what I brought her, told her to hurry up, and that I have a surprise for her. what I have for her, and told to hurry up, seeing as I have a surprise for her.
~Emmalyn's POV~
~6:15 p.m.~
Landon told me to hurry up, so I took a shower put minimal makeup on and put on a strapless blue and white polka dot dress that went down to my knees and white flats. We got in the car and he drove us to a cliff side, with an ocean underneath it. He, then proceeded to grab a picnic blanket, blanket, and some champagne. I thought to myself, "Wow, this must be some surprise because we don't drink champagne very often.
~Landon's POV~
~7:20 p.m.~
Emmalyn and I talked for a while then I told her I needed to get something from my car, and to stay here. I run to my car and get the ring, my camera, that Emmalyn got for my birthday a few months back, and a tripod. I go into the woods and set up the camera and face it to where we are sitting. I, then, grab the ring and hold it behind me back. When I get over to Emmalyn, the sky is blue, purple, and pink. I get down on one knee and say, "Emmalyn, 2 years ago today we met in an airport. When you told me you loved me, I knew right then that I wanted you to be my wife. Will you make me the happiest man alive and marry me? Be with me until the day I die?" She was crying but she yelled, "YES! Yes! Yes! Yes, I will marry you!!" I stood up and kissed her! The kiss was salty because of her tears, yet at the same time it was soft and sweet. We sat down on the cliff edge, looked over the edge, and drank our champagne. At around 11:16, I felt a weight on my right shoulder. I look over to see Emmalyn had fallen asleep. I pick her up bridal style and take her to the car. After I get her in the car, I pick everything up and put in the back. I remembered to grab the camera and put that away. I get in the car and take us home.
~9 months later~
"OWW! Landon, it hurts!" Emmalyn yells. (She is 9 months pregnant and is in labor.)
"I know baby! The hospital is right down the road!" I said panicking, but staying as calm as I can, so I don't freak Emmalyn out. When we get to the hospital, the doctors get us into the room and get ready for her to give her a C-Section. After about an hour of pained cries, I hear a baby cry! "It's a girl! Oh! There's one more! Push, Emmalyn!" The doctor says. I hear another little baby cry. We were told we were having one baby, a little girl. We had picked out a name for her and had a boy name on hand just in case it was actually a boy. I look over at Emmalyn and she is crying. "Hey! It's okay! We are have twins! A little boy and a little girl!" I tell her. When I tell her that she says to the doctor, "Let me see my little babies! The girl is named Emilia and the boy is named Joey!" The doctor finishes cutting the umbilical cord off them and cleans them up. They put our babies in diapers and hand Joey to Emmalyn and Emilia to me. "Emmy! Look at our babies!"
"They are so beautiful!" She says crying again. I don't blame her for crying! Even I started crying!
"They sure are beautiful, aren't they?" I say.
"Yes, they are!" Emmalyn said. The doctors make sure Emmalyn and our babies are okay then leave us alone with them.
"I love you, Landon!"
"I love you too, Emmalyn! You and the babies are my world! I love that I'm with you!"
