Iza

"I'll call you when we land" I say tiredly. I slowly drag my baggage to the plane as I talk to Odell on the phone.

I can't believe he woke up at 4:00 in the morning to make sure I made it on the plane safely.

He really is the one. "Iza ... Izaaa... I love youuu... Izaaa... my baby, my queen, my everything, I love youuu" Odell sings in the phone.

I laugh, "Even though your terrible at singing that was beautiful. I love you too my king" I say.

"Girl what I told you about that 'I love you too' shit" he said. "What? I don't understand why you don't like that." I say.

I give the flight attendant my ticket and she scans it. She gives it back and I find the seat by India. I groan as I put my things in the baggage cubby.

"Thanks for the help India" I say sarcastically. "Did you help me?" She says grumpy. She's always so grumpy in the morning so I disregard her comment. 

I sit down beside her and tell Odell I'm back. "Anyways I don't like when people say I love you too because it's like they're saying they love me in addition to my love for them. Like their bouncing off my love, like they don't love me as much as I love them. That's why I tell you I love you when you say it first. So you'll know I don't love you in addition to your love for me but I love you as much as you love me and maybe even more." He says seriously.

"Oh... I've never thought of it that way" I say amazed . "Yeah.." he says. "Well I love you but I have to go. I'll call you back later, you know we have to shut down our electronics before take off" I say relaxing in my seat.

"I can't believe you believe in that shit, but I love you baby. Talk to you later" he says chuckling. "Shut up, see you later" I say blowing a kiss through the phone.

"I me'd it ! , aight see ya" he says. "You're so corny, talk to you later fool" I say laughing. "You hang up first" he says. "No you hang up first" I say laughing.

We go back and forth telling each other to hang up first until India snatches my phone. "How bout I hang up first , y'all anit bout to start this shit" India says ending the phone call.

"But I didn't tell him see you later" I say pouting. "Bitch you told him 20 minutes ago you'll talk to him later, you will be okay" she said handing me back my phone.

"Rude" I mumble texting Odell 'see you later baby'. He replies back and I turn my phone off waiting for take off.

Once we take off I turn my phone back on and put in my headphones listening to music.

"Thank you for flying with American Airlines" the captain says through the intercom.

I call my mom to ask her where she is. It rings three times before she answers, "Hello?". "Hey ma, I'm getting off the plane now I'll be out there in a minute" I say getting my bags out the baggage claim.

India gets her bags and we're on our way out. My brother calls me and I answer on the second ring.

"Hey ugly where y'all at it's hot as hell outchea" he groans shuffling through the phone. I roll my eyes,"We're coming where's ma at?" I say following India through the airport.
