Falling

Chapter 4

I wake up to someone shaking my arm. I hate being touched by others.

"Ugh, what!" I yell too loud. But I guess it doesn't matter how loud I am because when I open my eyes all the seats in the plane are empty.

I briefly remember that Harry's name was mentioned when I was chatting to someone before I fell asleep. Oh my god, it was the woman beside me. I quickly turn around in my seat, but what I'm left with seeing is just a empty airplane chair.

"Claire! Where did the woman sitting beside me go! Where did everyone else go!" I shout as I get up out of my seat and grab my purse.

"Well maybe if you woke up ten minutes ago we wouldn't be the last people on this plane!" Claire says obviously being so annoyed by me.

"Shit. I have to find that woman." I leave my seat and start walking down the isle. Before I can get any further Claire pulls me by the shirt.

"Excuse me, I think it would be nice of you to wait for me." Claire says.

"Sorry just hurry up" I say. Claire rolls her eyes at me and tags along after she takes her belongings.

After we exit the plane I rush into the airport.

Claire has literally told me to slow down at least ten times by now but I just ignore her.

I have been running for ten minutes and I don't even know where I'm going. I stop and breath heavily because you know, I don't really exercise, okay actually I don't ever exercise.

I turn around and look at Claire who is also exhausted.

"Do you know where the woman could have gone?" I ask Claire.

She stares at me for a while before she responds.

"Okay look Lia, I'm done with your bullshit. First of all, I tryed to wake you up for an hour on the plane, and you got mad at me! You ran through the whole airport and I fucking followed you the whole way! Oh ya and now your expecting me to just help you find some random woman! Like what the hell Lia!" Claire is so pissed off she literally yelled the whole time. Shit I'm such a bad friend.

"Oh god I'm so sorry Claire." I say. I really need her to forgive me.

"No! We arrived in New York, I think you can find your way back home alone now" Claire is still so mad.

"What are you saying?" I'm actually so confused.

"I'm saying you should keep your shit together next time" my mouth is open as Claire turns and walks away.

She keeps on walking and exits the airport, disappearing into the distance. I don't know why but I just don't say anything. I don't go after her. Because the truth is, I don't need that bitch to help me anymore.

Wait what. I hear two familiar voices. One for sure is Claire's annoying ass yelling.

"Wow what luck, I run into you again!" I over hear Claire say.

"Why the fuck are you here and where is that girl you were with before?!" Oh my god it's Harry.

"Oh she's a bitch lets go" I hear Claire say. I can faintly see her enter the bright yellow taxi.

I don't hear Harry say anything else, but I sprint to the airport doors to approach them.

I stop at the doors to think for a moment. Do I really want to see and be stuck with Claire for another hour, and am I sure I want to see Harry again. This is my last chance to see Harry. Before I realize it, I am walking towards the taxi. I put my luggage in the trunk of the taxi and open the door to the seat beside Harry. Both Harry and Claire are really surprised for my arrival. I turn around and look at Claire.

"Oh ya by the way Claire, your the one being a bitch" I say in a very sassy and annoyed tone.

No one says anything after that. I look over at Harry and he gives me this cute small smile and I smile back at him. He starts the car and I feel so proud of my self for some reason.
