One Lucky Girl

I've Missed you.

The flight felt like it was taking forever and the closer we got to Miami the more nauseous I felt. “I’ll be right back.” I said to Pattie “Are you alright sweetie you look sick.” She said “I’m okay.” I said.

 I walked to the bathroom and pulled my hair back I splashed some cold water on my face. I held onto the sink for balance, I stared at my reflection and took a deep breath “Just another 25 minutes Aaliyah.” I said to myself. The plane began to shake I held onto the sink as tight as I could. I then felt very nauseous, I bent down in front of the toilet and I began throwing up.

The plane shook again; after it stopped I stood up gently and splashed water on my face again. There was a knock on the door “Hey Aaliyah the pilot just told us we need to put our seat belts on we’re having some turbulence problems.”  Scooter said.

I opened the door “Oh god Aaliyah are you alright?” He asked “Yeah I’m just feeling sick.” I said “Well let’s get you back to your seat.” He said

He held onto me as he walked me back to my seat “Honey are you okay?” Pattie asked “Yeah I’m…..” I started then I blacked out.

I woke up still on the jet surrounded by medics “She’s awake we now have a response.” One medic said Pattie rushed over “Aaliyah?” She asked “What happened?” I asked

“You passed out. How do you feel?” She asked “I’m better now I think.”I said “We would still like you to come to the hospital for observation.” The medic said “No. Please really I’m fine.” I said

The medic looked at Pattie “Can you take her straight to the hotel and make her rest?” The medic said “Yes!” Pattie said I looked at her “But what about Justin?” I asked

“We’ll deal with him you need to rest.” She said I nodded my head and they helped me stand up “Do you feel dizzy or anything?” The medic asked “I’m alright.” I said. She looked at me “That’s not what I asked, I asked if you were dizzy?” She questioned I smiled at her “Yes I’m a little dizzy.”I admitted “That’s better.” She said smiling

They helped me off the jet and into the car I slid in and sat next to Ryan. “How are you feeling?” He asked “Terrible.” I replied laying my head on his shoulder “We’re only like 15 minutes from the house Justin rented.” He said

“Aaliyah?” I heard a voice say I slowly opened my eyes, I was in a bed and I could see a figure sitting in front of me. I closed my eyes tightly and reopened them letting them adjust to the light. “Aaliyah?” The voice questioned again.

My eyes finally adjusted and I saw Justin sitting on the bed I sat up quickly “Whoa, be careful.” He said placing his hand on my shoulder. “Yeah that was a bad idea.” I said “Yeah why don’t you lay back down.” He said

“How long was I sleeping? All I remember is being on the jet.” I said “You guys got here a few hours ago you fell asleep in the car and Ryan brought you in.” He said “Oh.”  I said trying hard to remember what happened.

“So how do you feel now?” He asked “Umm.. Better.” I said smiling. “Aaliyah I’m sor.” He began to say “Justin stop.” I said not ready to talk about things right now “No Aaliyah for real… I’m really sorry for everything.” He said placing his hand on my cheek.

Then someone walked in the room “Oh… good she’s awake.” The girl said, I’ve never met her but I knew exactly who she was. Justin looked at her then looked back to me “Aaliyah this is Chantel, Chantel Aaliyah.” He said introducing us. “It’s nice to meet you.” I said “Yeah you too.” She said she walked over and sat on Justin’s lap.
