Chapter 2: Lighten Up

Lillian's POV

"Ok so has it been long enough? Can I have my notebook now?" I ask, impatient.

"Workaholic much?" he asked, chuckling.

"I'm going to be late for a meeting. Maybe. I don't know I have work to do!"

'Workaholic and indecisive." he notes jokingly.

"UGH. Mitchell what do you want?"

"Whoa. Ew. No. Call me Mitch," he scoffed, disgusted by his real name.

"Oh I see. You don't like that. So, call me Lillian." I state, proud.

"So, I see you write for a living?"

There was no way I was leaving...Or was I? I sighed. I lifted my phone, inches from my lips.

"Cancel my business meetings for the next week, and text Allegra that I'm taking a long vacation."

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Mitch's face grow excited. I put my phone in my pocket, and said,

"I need to pack." We started to walk out, and on the way out, I said, "Oh, and it's Lillian."

~Plane~

I'm scared. Afraid. I've never left New York. In my life. I've never been on a plane. Ever. Not ever.
