Lizzy's POV
———————

I'm at the airport with Zach and our families. Trust me I tried to get out of this, but I didn't succeed. I am sitting at our gate talking to nobody. "I'm gonna miss you" my mom says and I roll my eyes which I've been doing a lot "you wouldn't have too if you let me stay here" I say with attitude.

"Flight 737 to Los Angeles will be boarding in 2 minutes" the overcome says. We all stand up and I hug my mom, Ryan, Mama, and lastly and hardest Reese. "I'm gonna miss you baby" I say. She won't stop hugging me, Mrs Herron has to pull her off me. "Love you guys" I say waving. Me and Zach walk into the plane and sadly have seats together.

I never liked planes, my dad died in 9/11. Zach knows this, but maybe he forgot. I sit down and my shaky breath in noticeable, Zach looks at me and asks "are you okay?" I nod. I didn't get the window seat because that will just make things worse.

The plane took off and we are in the air. I still am not comfortable at all. My anxiety is acting up, my mom gave Zach my medicine since I won't lose it. "Can I have my anxiety pills?" He just sighs "in my carryon" He says with a lot of attitude. I scoff and get them. I take two and put them back in the bag.

It's not helping. I'm shaking a lot especially my legs and Zach's notices. He pulls up his arm-rest, unbuckled himself and laid his head on my lap. He knows I like to play with his hair he didn't do his hair today. I hesitantly ran my fingers through his hair and he looks up and me and nods saying it was okay.

I slightly smile and run my fingers through his soft brown hair. I start to drift off to sleep.

\1 hour later/

I was woken by Zach. "Come on we landed" I nod and get up. I pick up my carry on and walk out. We get into LAX and we see 4 other boys. Zach was about to run over to them but he says "how's your anxiety?" I nod and he runs over and hugs the boys.

I walk over and stand by Zach "guys this is Lizzy" they all smile and Jonah hugs me "hey jay" I say happily. I move back I just smile at the other guys. We get to the house and let me tell you it's huge!!
