I wake up late this morning at 11 AM. As soon as I wake up I get my luggage out of the attic and start packing clothes for Melbourne. I'm finally done after 2 hours of sorting through everything I'm going to bring, and I take a break.
"Finally" I let out a huff of air and lay down on my messy floor.

My phone buzzes and I reach over my bags to get it. I see a message from Corbyn.
"Hey" 
"Hi. You excited for me to come?!"
"Yeah, I miss you a lot!"
"I know, I know, everything is just so boring with out me."
"Haha, so boring😂"
"So what'd you text for?"
"Just checking up on my best friend. I haven't texted you in a while with just the two of us."
"Yeah, I know. I guess you just don't have time for me these days..."
"Oh you know we are busy"
"I'm being sarcastic dumbo, I guess you already forgot my sarcasm."
"Maybe. I'm glad I'll get a little taste of it when you come on tour with us... Jonah is really excited for you to come."
"Aw I'm glad. I don't want him to feel like he's dependent on me though. You know?"
"Yeah I hear you. But he doesn't feel that way so don't worry."
"Yeah, hopefully..."
"Hey the boys and I are gonna make pizza now."
"When does your plane leave?"
"Tomorrow morning. I should get to Melbourne the same time as you."
"Good. Text one of us when you get to the airport tomorrow."
"I will, Corb."
"Ok, Em. I'll talk to you later then, ok?"
"Yeah, I love ya Corbs."
"Love you too, Emily!"
It was so nice texting Corbyn. I miss our conversations together. They are always so genuine.

Next day.
I wake up at 5 AM today and get a friend to drive me to the airport. I check in my bags and get a light breakfast, before heading to the boarding area. One hour goes past and they call first class. Everyone gets in line as I wait patiently for Group B to be called.
"Okay, we have one passenger missing from First Class. Emily Phillips, Emily Phillips? Is there anyone here by that name?"
I jump up out of my seat and head to the flight attendant.
"Ma'am, my ticket says Group B." I say confused, but polite.
"It says here, miss, that your flight has been upgraded. There is a note here that says, 'First class for the best girl I know!'... maybe your boyfriend or family member?"
Awwww I blush. Jonah is the sweetest.
I give her a smile and a nod and then head down the hallway leading to the plane. I find a pod to sit in and it is luxuriously set up. Wow. He really outdid himself. You are one lucky girl, Em.
I text Jonah before everyone is completely boarded and say- Thank you for the upgrade my sweetheart! Can't wait to see you!
2 minutes later I get a text back from Jonah that says- What upgrade??
I'm confused.
Completely and utterly confused.

Do you like your pod?
Corbyn.
I should've known.
