BYE!
She put her phone in her back pocket and went out the door.
<3 <3 <3
"DELAYED?! HOW?!"
So... Apparently her flight to Chicago was delayed. She checked the Weather Channel's website on her iPhone and found out that there was a huge hurricane developing in the area that the plane's route followed, so I could be delayed for up to two days!
Taylor slumped down in a seat. She leaned back and put in her earbuds to listen to music. Before she knew it, she was fast asleep.
<3 <3 <3
When she woke up, it was night, and her plane still hadn't left yet.
"I heard you might be here awhile."
She turned around to find Morgan standing behind her. She felt a lot better. She even almost smiled.
Almost.
"What are you doing here?"
"Came to say 'good-bye'. You didn't seem to wanna do it yourself."
"Gee, I wonder why."
"C'mon, just admit you like me"
"No."
"I will if you will."
"NO!"
The truth was, she did like him. She was also falling in love with him. All those people who say love at first sight doesn't exist? They're wrong.
"Fine. I guess I'll just leave then." he slumped his shoulders, turned around, and walked away.
He hadn't even gone ten feet when Taylor shouted, "Wait!"
He turned his head to look back at her. "Seriously?"
"Um... Yeah."
He walked back towards her, slowly. He kind of looked confused, like he didn't actually think she liked him. Like it was all just a game to him.
She hoped not.
This time, the hoping worked, but more on that later.
"I, um... I..."
"Yeah?" he laughed.
"You know what? Never mind."
"No, really. What?"
"It's... It's nothing."
"Taylor." he leaned in, putting his hand in he cheek. Just like in the dream.
And just then:
"All passengers on flight B-2 to Chicago, Illinois: your plane will be leaving in ten minutes."
"Oh no! That's my flight, I have to go!" she ran off, barely hearing what Morgan said next.
"Taylor, wait!"
