Skylen’s POV
I was sitting on the plan at a window seat waiting for the plane to take off. I went ahead started playing my music, I normally use Spotify but I only had Nobody's Home downloaded. (Dalton Rapattoni's new Album) so that is all I’m listening to. I was looking out the window when I could slightly hear a familiar voice. I took out 1 earbud and turned around. "Is this seat taken?" yep it was the one and only Dalton Rapattoni. Stay calm Skylen control your inner fangirl. "Actually a really handsome blonde with sea green eyes and converse that look about 15 years old just asked for it" he gave a small smile and laughed. "Have a seat" I said. "Thanks" he replied. He sat down next to me and I started our soon to be 3 hour conversation with a question "why a middle seat? There is literally an aisle seat right next to you and a window seat 2 rows back." "I saw a pretty face i wanted to get to know." i started to blush. Did Dalton Rapattoni seriously just flirt with me? Stay cool. "You’re not from here are you?" I asked. "Nope" he replied "why? Do people not compliment others in Atlanta?" he continued. "no they do" I said "they just don't look as good as you." he laughed a little. Oh my gosh his laugh is perfect. He's perfect oh my gosh.
I still had 1 earbud in but I took it out to continue my conversation with Dalton. He still hadn't told me his name yet and I hadn't told him mine.
A voice came from the speakers saying we were about to take off and with that it did and so did me and Dalton's conversation.
I pulled up my music so I could hit pause and he looked over. Oh no. I’m doomed he knows I’m a fan. Wait no Skylen you got this. "Who ya listening to?" he said. "Um this kid you might know him his name is Dalton Rapattoni." I said with sarcasm dripping from my voice. "No way" he started. His voice filled with sarcasm. "I've heard of him before. I hate his new Album." I hit his shoulder "shut up. It’s great!" I said maybe just a little too loud. People looked at us weird and we burst into laughter. "So clearly you know my name but I still don't know yours" he said "maybe we'll keep it that way" I replied with a smirk. He rolled his eyes "whatever kid." and our conversation continued for the whole plane ride from Atlanta Georgia to Dallas Texas. Why I‘m going to Dallas is a different story. The plane landed and we walked off together and got our bags. He had 1 large black suitcase and I had 2 large blue suitcases. We sat on some chairs in the airport. I don't know why he sat down he can leave. "Well time to wait." I said. "When does your ride get here?" he asked. "Uhhh midnight..." "kid it's 8:10PM." he said "I know but my dad as to come straight from work and he got off like 10 minutes ago and he lives 4 hours away." I told him. "Hey i got to use the bathroom I’ll be right back." I said. I stood up and went to the bathroom.Daltons POV
This beautiful girl I've been talking to for the past 3 hours got up and went to the bathroom. "OK!" I yelled as she turned her head to look at me. She gave a small smile and continued to the bathroom. Her smile is so perfect. Her dirty blond hair is so perfect. I can't believe a perfectly beautiful girl like her is going to wait for 4 hours. I saw she left her phone on the seat she was sitting in. I have an idea. I picked up her phone to do 2 things, 1st try to find out her name and 2nd text her dad. I turned on her phone, thank god she doesn't have a code just a swipe. Her lock screen was a pic of me and her from yesterday. I thought she looked familiar! She was at my show yesterday in Atlanta! I looked at the screen more to see if I could find her name but all it said was Spicy Rapattoni, that sounds like a fun story. I swiped opened her phone and saw the contacts Dad and tapped it. I started typing
To dad: hey I’m getting a taxi don't want to wait for 4 hours. What's the address?
From dad: ok see you soon. Stay safe. Love you. 3245 drew lane.
I deleted the conversation so there was no evidence. I saw her walk out of the bathroom so I quickly put the phone back where it was.
Skylen’s POV
I was in the bathroom and I realized I left my phone on the seat next to Dalton. "dang it" I whispered. I washed my hands and left the bathroom. I was walking back and to my surprise Dalton was still sitting there with a huge smile on his face. Oh dear what did he do? I thought to myself. "Hey I didn't think you'd still be here." I said. "Well I wasn't gonna let a beautiful girl sit at the airport all by herself" he argued. I blushed "why thank you" "hey there is a starbucks like 20 minutes away how about we get a cab and grab a drink?" he suggested. "I don't know I don’t want my dad to show up and me not be here." I said. "Come on it's 20 minutes there 20 minute to drink a coffee-" "I don’t drink coffee" "20 minutes to drink a hot chocolate and 20 minutes back. That's only 1 hour and it looks like we have about 4 to spare." I rolled my eyes "ok fine." we walked outside and got in a cab. The ride there was filled with a comfortable silence and small talk. We got to starbucks and Dalton payed the driver and for my drink. 45 minutes later we got back in the cab. Dalton put his arm up on the top of the seat. It was a 20 minute ride and I was tired so I curled up on Dalton shoulder. I felt his arm move from the top of the seat to around me. I smiled and fell asleep.
Daltons POV
Kid (I’m calling her kid because she didn't tell me her name and she looks a bit younger than me) curled up onto my chest and I wrapped my arm around her tightly but not to tight. When I knew she was asleep i told the taxi driver the new destination, her dad’s house. "She's a beauty aint she?" the driver said. "Yeah she really is." I said looking down at her with a smile. "Truly beautiful."
"A little fat for my taste but to each their own." the driver said. I was disgusted by his comment. How could he think she was fat?! "She's the most beautiful girl I have ever met. She might not be a tiny person but she isn’t fat. She is far from fat. She is beautiful. How dare you say that." the rest of the ride was silent. I think I scared him.Skylen's POV
I woke up when i heard the taxi driver speak but I didn’t let Dalton know I was awake. The first thing the taxi driver said me smile then Daltons comment made me blush. The taxi driver spoke once more but this time he said "A little fat for my taste but to each their own." I dropped. I knew I was overweight but I was also tall. I always thought I was fat but no one would ever tell me I was. A small tear came out my eye but then i heard dalton speak. His words made me blush and I fell back asleep with the thought that the Dalton Rapattoni thought I, Skylen Vera Jones, a little nobody was beautiful.
Dalton's POV
I ended up falling asleep. I woke up to the sound of the taxi driver (who I now was pissed at) saying we had 15 minutes left. I realized I didn't have Kids number yet and I wanted to stay in touch but I didn't want to wake her. I saw her phone on her lap and once again took it. I created a new contact and put in my number and goofy picture I took right then. I put my name as Handsome Blond on plane then put the phone down gently on her lap to make sure she didn't wake up. I watched her beautiful self sleep for the next 10 minutes. Then we pulled into her driveway. The driver got her bags and put them on the pouch and I carried her bridal style with her hands wrapped around my neck. I looked down and saw her open her beautiful blue/green eyes and smile as she looked up at me. "I brought you home kid." I said with a gentle voice then set her down on her feet. How did I not notice I am only 1 inch taller than her?
Skylen’s POV
I woke up with Dalton holding me bridal style and my arms wrapped around his neck. I looked into his sea green eyes and smiled. He said with a soft voice "I brought you home kid" I blushed at his nickname for me and put my face back in his neck. He put me down but my hands were still wrapped around his neck we looked at each other for a few more moments then I pulled my arms away "um uh thanks for taking me home" I said shyly. "Hey no problem kid" I giggled once more at his name for me. "Well I better be getting home. I’ll see you later kid." he spoke as he walked away. I smiled and said a small "bye" with a wave. He kept walking then turned around. "One more thing" he said while running back to me. "And what might that b-" he cut me off with a gentle kiss on my cheek. I blushed as he ran back to the cab. "I'm 17!" I yelled to him. He stuck his head out the window of the cab and said "it's only illegal if we do something stupid!" I laughed and he stuck his head back in the car and drove off. Crap I didn't get his number "wait I didn't get your!! And he's gone. Great." I opened my phone and saw he created a new contact named Handsome Blond on plane. "Yay" I whispered as I knocked on my new home. Yeah I just moved here about 5 hours ago and I was with Dalton Rapattoni the whole time.
I would soon be surrounded by my sisters asking me questions and me giving them answers they will never believe. But hey I finally got that kiss on the cheek from dalton I've wanted since April when I met him the first time.
