Chapter 21✔️

It was currently 7:10am and Jack was still stalling, he really did hope Casey was just running late due to traffic but on his way here, there was none.

"We need to leave now sir if we're going to make it back in time," the pilot to the hired jet yelled out to the lovestruck boy from the stairs of the flying machine.

Jack distractingly nodded before turning his body around with his head still facing the direction where people come through, he was trying to give himself false hope so his heart wouldn't hurt as much.

He took small, slow steps toward the jet. If anyone saw how he looked, they would think these were his first steps ever.

The small man reached the vehicle sooner than he wanted making him dread his flight back. Would he cry from heartbreak? Would he be angry at his love? Would he spam her with texts and calls? No one knew.

Jack felt sick to the stomach, he didn't know what to do - how to act.

Soon enough, Jack was seated, buckled up and ready for take off. Physically? yes, mentally? No. How could he when the person he liked - loved didn't want to be with him through everything.

"Can I get you anything?" The flight attendant asked Jack, breaking him out of his trance, although it was more of a purr, like a silent message that he should get yet he didn't.

"I'm fine, thanks."

"Are you sure? I can..." the flight attendant trailed off, her pointer finger drawing lazy shaped on his broad shoulder, "...help."

"Help with what exactly?" Jack knew what she was insisting, he didn't really care but he was stalling, he was stalling so he could think of a way to turn the poor woman down. She was truly embarrassing herself.

"Stress."

"Thanks for the offer but I think I'll help him with his stress," a voice suddenly replied behind both Jack and the flight attendant, the voice was oddly familiar.

The flight attendant who didn't even have a name badge strutted off after letting out a short 'hmph!' leaving Jack and the source of his saviour alone.

"I thought you weren't going to show up?"

"I was here before you, took me quite awhile to convince the pilot that I should be let on but I convinced him nonetheless."

"You didn't....?"

"Oh god no! Ew don't think like that! I want to sleep tonight thank you very much!"

This made Jack chuckle, this is why he loved Casey, she always found the light in not so light situations.

"Where were you this whole time?"

"Bathroom, quite small, thought I was coming down with the case of claustrophobia!"

"But that's not a -"

"Shhh let me have my dramatic moments," Casey whispered, completely cutting the boy of what his next words were with a finger to his lips.

"Why didn't you come out sooner?"

"You're asking way too much questions Mr- I'm- Curious- As- Shit!"

Another laugh rippled it's way out of Jacks chest causing Casey to smile.

"I was taking a shit," the girl finally replied to his question.

Her answer was way too blunt for Jack as he choked a little on his own salvia which resulted in Casey giggle a little.

Instead of answering, Jack replied with something better with words, he replied with his actions.

He didn't reply with just any actions though, it was actions that involved his mouth.

They kissed for a few minutes, every once in a while they would pull away for a split second and gasp for air but other than that, there was nothing that would make them pull apart.

Well other than the pilot announcing their arrival to LA.

"Jack?"

"Casey?"

"Can I let you in on a little secret?"

"Sure."

"You can't tell anyone now ok?"

"Yeah, ok."

"You ready?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you."

"Casey?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you too."
