•George•

"George hurry up, we need to go pick up Charlotte and Mikaela in 10 minutes!" Reece said hurrying me.

Saying I was nervous already was an understatement. Today we were flying to L.A for our song writing, the trip where I was hopefully going to tell Charlotte I like her. I hadn't seen much of her, as we had been in Europe finishing the tour, but any spare moment I I talked to her. And now I like her even more than I did in the beginning.

"George mate, are you gonna tell Char you like her while we're in LA?" Blake asked.

"Well yeah, that's the plan"

"I'm proud" he grinned. "But remember if you do get together you have to hide it from Joe"

"Why would they have to hide their relationship?" Reece added, thinking the same as me.

"Because Joe doesn't want us having girlfriends remember? 'It's not good for the band to have girlfriends when your fan base is mainly girls'. Do you two not remember how much I had to beg Joe to let me date Jess?"

I hadn't thought about that. So if we did get together - if she even likes me back - then we'd have to hide it. From everyone. I don't want all that hassle..... but I want Char to be my girlfriend, more than anything in the world.

"Come on lads, let's just go pick the girls up and actually get to LA, then I wanna know how you're gonna tell her and all that gossip" Reece smirked, making me shake my head at him before I got my suitcase and packed it into the car which everyone was already in.

We pulled up outside Charlottes house about 10 minutes later. Joe went to get the girls, as he said he had to talk to Charlottes Mum before we left about something, but it wasn't long before the brown haired, blue eyed girl that I had grown to not live without, was sat next to me, smiling.

"Hey Georgey" she grinned, giving me a tight hug.

"Hey Char" I said, returning her hug. "Excited?"

"Very. But also slightly scared"

"Scared? For what?"

"I'm scared of flying.......and heights" she said, her cheeks flushing a light shade of red.

"That's nothing to be embarrassed about Char, lots of people are scared of flying. I could sit next to you if you want? A little supporter?" I said.

"I'd like that, thanks George" she said, kissing my cheek softy.

Oh Char, why can't you be mine already.........

•Reece•

"Does George like Char?" Mikaela randomly asked me as we were waited in the airport, waiting for our flight to be called.

I looked over at them, where they were looking out the big window and laughing with each other. I smiled smally. George has had it hard with girls, and with Charlotte it's completely different to all those other girls. George seemed genuinely happy when he's around her, and when they're apart or not talking it's like he's lost. I've never seen him like this with a girl before. And as he's my best mate, it's nice seeing him happy.

"Of course he does Mik" I said. "But what about Char? Does she like George?"

"Well duh" she replied. "Do you think we should play Cupid, help them get together?"

"Nah, I think little Georgey's got this one on his own"I smiled just before our flight was called.

We all races to the gate, Joe giving us in trouble as we did so. Ah classic Joe.

Charlotte•

"Char, don't worry, I'm right here" George whispered, placing his hand over mine, which was currently holding onto the arm rest for dear life as we were about to take off.

I felt the plane shuddering and I started freaking out, like big time.

"What's happened?!" I panicked.

"Don't worry Charlotte, it's just the plane starting to move. As soon as we're in the air you'll be fine" Joe said from in front of me and George.

"Put your head on my chest" George said and I gave him a funny look. "Just do it. It might help you?"

I sighed but did as I was told, resting my head against his chest, his steady heartbeat instantly relaxing me. I closed my eyes and breathed in deeply inhaling his scent, a small smile forming on my face. I don't know how long I was there for, but it must've been a while.

"See that wasn't so bad was it?" George said, rubbing my arm softly.

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion before I looked out the window to see we were already high above the clouds. Huh, guess times flies when you're relaxed. I yawned, shaking my head to try and keep me awake. You see, me and Mikaela were up most of the night talking about this trip, how excited we were and what not.

"Someone's tired" George giggled. "Come cuddle up to me and you can fall asleep on me if you like"

I smiled and returned my head to his chest. Within minutes I could feel my eyelids fluttering shut, drifting to the land of sleep, George's heartbeat as my lullaby............

~14 hours later~

"Char? Char it's time to wake up, we're landing" I heard George whispered, a kiss being pressed to my forehead.

I groaned and sat up, stretching. Then it hit me....

"OH MY GOD GEORGE WE'RE ACTUALLY IN LA!" I said a little bit too loudly.

"Yes we are. Ready for the best 2 weeks of your life?"

"Bring it" I grinned.

I knew these 2 weeks were gonna be the best, but what I didn't know is the twists that came with them.........
