Bubba had to cover his mouth to stifle the laughter.
"No sorry didn't get much last night, I.....was......um......well.....a little busy" Jordan finished looking over at Bubba with a grin.
"Ok what happened?" Chad said looking between the two of them in utter confusion
When Jordan just continued to smile, Chad looked over at Bubba hoping he would supply the answer without further question.
"Stephi got locked out of her room last night and it took a while to get her back in" Bubba answered through stifled giggles.
"Stephi?" Chad said starting to get annoyed.
"You know the short brunette that I introduced you to at the meet and greet" Jordan said with a gesture.
"Oh yeah the married one" Chad hissed  with an accusatory glare.
A flash of guilt ripped through Jordan as he remembered his own wife.
"Yeah her" Jordan admitted guiltily
"Damn man, do I have to babysit you every waking minute" Chad complained  slamming his fist down on the arm rest.
"You're not my fucking babysitter" Jordan snapped  angrily "and it wasn't like that at all" he turned his head to look out the window "she is different"
"Man I have heard that one before" Chad said almost to himself
"Not fucking from me you haven't" Jordan said angrily "So don't even go there"
Chad opened his mouth but Bubba cut him off.
"Chill out guys" Bubba said not even bothering to look at them. Sometimes he felt like the babysitter. He leaned back as the plane took off, closed his heavy eyes and wondered if she would call Jordan. He could see that she effected in some kind of way
When nothing else was said, Jordan slipped on his head phones to listen to some tracks they had started in the studio last week. He closed his eyes and before he knew it he was asleep.
"Hey" Chad said as he shook Jordan by the shoulders
"What?" Jordan gasped as he startled out of an almost dead sleep.
"What the hell were you dreaming?" Chad sniggered "You were moving around and moaning the entire time"
"What are you watching me sleep now?" Jordan snapped embarrassed.
Chad just laughed as the plane touched down.
As the plane taxied to its gate, Jordan leaned over and sighed heavily into his hands. "What the fuck time is it now" he said in frustration
"11:00 am east coast time, that makes it 10:00 here" Chad said resetting his watch.
"At least with the time zones I get more sleep" Jordan said to the inside of his hands.
They exited the plane and trudged through the crowded airport to collect their bags. Jordan was silent as he watched the buildings slide by from the car window. His eye lids felt like lead weights but his heart felt even heavier. The distance was so much harder than he had ever thought it would be. Sleeping on the plane he had dreamed about her, them being together. The guilt weighed on him like something he had never experienced before. He closed his eyes and saw her face, that flirty smile with her head at an angle that made him loose his mind. He felt himself smile in response. His hand automatically massaged his pocket and he felt comfort wash through him as he touched the small silver she had confiscated.

After wrestling with her pillow for an hour, Stephi gave up and finally decided she might as well head home. She was not looking forward to the long drive on less than three hours sleep but her conscience wasn't cooperating. When she finally looked in the mirror she was absolutely horrified. Jordan must be out of his mind for wanting to kiss her with her looking like this. It looked like she had two black eyes from the bags under them. Deciding she would feel better after a hot shower, she undressed and walked into the stark white bath. When the steam began to fill the room, she stepped under the hot spray and felt her muscles instantly relax. She instinctively closed her eyes and just let the hot water pour over her, she didn't know what ached more, her body or her heart. No matter how hard she tried she just couldn't get the image of him out of her mind. Every time she closed her eyes she saw the look on his face as he lay there sleeping. Her mind jumped to the moments that happened before and she felt her insides flush. She pushed that thought away, she couldn't keep thinking about that and move on with her life. What a complete idiot, she thought as she pressed her burning forehead to the blessedly cool tiles. The tears began again. She was so racked by sobs that she finally had to just sit down in the tub and she started rocking herself for comfort. She had to stop this, just had to. She had to accept what she had done and move on. She was an adult despite last night's events and she would just have to endure what mental anguish they came with. She felt like screaming in frustration, so she did. Feeling much better after the crying and screaming had ended she brushed her wet, dripping hair out of her face and got up. With a deep sigh of renewed conviction she rinsed herself off and got out. When she looked in the mirror she had to admit she did look a little better. She glanced down at the white towel around her and she just had to laugh to herself. Jordan in a towel. She shook her head, well at least she could share that exciting development with her girls. She finished getting ready and threw everything into her suitcase haphazardly. After checking out, she got in her car and drove back to reality.
After stopping for gas and a quick breakfast Stephi started the long journey home.
Turning on the radio because she couldn't handle to hear his voice on her CD's at the moment she found a station playing 80's music and turned it up loud. With the windows rolled down and the cool air blowing through she jammed along to all the music she loved when she was a child. After several songs went by she was feeling surprisingly energized and light hearted when it all shattered. The first few notes of the song sent chills up her spine. She reached up her hand instinctively to turn it off but then found herself listening hypnotically. I'll Be Loving You Forever poured out of her radio and she finally gave into the tears. At this point she didn't know if she could ever really listen to his music the same way again. After the song finished she turned off the radio and opted for one of her other non-Jordan related cd's to occupy her driving time. .. After several hours pasted she was back in her home state again and starting to get anxious about getting home. She didn't think she would ever get there. A few minutes later her cell phone rang causing her to jump as she smacked off the CD player. She quickly checked the caller ID before she answered it. Brian she grumbled out loud with a heavy sigh.
"Hey sweetie how are you" she said in a syrupy loving voice
"Good just about to head out for work and I was wondering if you had started home yet" he said sleepily
"Yeah I am about three hours away" she replied
