23. Taking off

Zach's p.o.v.

My eyes anxiously flicked between Jack and the door, wanting nothing more than to escape. I was pulled out of my anxious flustered state by the sound of Jack's sweet, luscious, sexy- I mean, by the sound of Jacks incredibly average and not at all heavenly voice calling out to me. "So, um, listen. We need to talk, and sort somethings out. I'm not actually quite sure exactly what went on, I'm kind of really confused about things, and just a little lost on everything as a whole."

Jack took a short pause and considered for a while, before hesitantly speaking up. "What happened to us, Zach?" he looked down, taking a shaky exhale of breath. "Where did we go wrong?" I felt a lump form at the back of my throat. Roughly trying to swallow, my eyes fluttered down to my hands, fiddling.

His words really hit me deep, catching me a bit off guard. I thought for a moment, finally allowing the build-up of thoughts I had worked so hard the past few weeks to push away to now freely run through my mind.

Suddenly, I gripped my hands in to fists, a small outburst of anger sweeping over me. Everything. Jack had done everything. He was the cause of all of it.

He knew how I felt about him, and he pushed me away. He made me feel worthless, but most of all, he made me feel wrong. He pushed me to the point of making myself mentally and physically sick.

And at the night of the party. He led me on with that kiss, and then at the first opportunity he could he ran straight to that bitch, Vanessa.
 
He knew he was doing more than just messing me around and playing me, he was breaking my heart.

How could I ever love someone who had put me through so much? How could I crave the feeling of his lips on mine, when all they ever brought me was pain? A part of me couldn't help but still see the glisten of purity and innocence in his eyes. Those eyes, that could do no wrong. Those eyes, that i fell in love with...

Even if I knew it was wrong, apart of me believed it was right. Perhaps my love for him had made me naïve, or it was just bad judgement, but something within me believed he wasn't the bad person I thought him to be. But how could he be anything other than what he had proved himself to be?

"Listen, Zach. If you won't talk to me about any of it, then at least guarantee me this. I don't know what's going on, or what we have to sort out, but what I do know is..." He trailed off. "I miss you..." he finished. My heart fluttered as my face lit up. Even if this was another one of Jack's games, it still felt good to hear him say those words.

"I miss you too" I replied, barely above a whisper. His face lit up in to a smile, and he reached out to grab my hand. This time, I didn't remove it, allowing myself to enjoy his touch.

"Can we at least go back to being friends?" I distantly nodded, not paying too much attention, too lost in his eyes, and his smile. My chin rested on my free hand, soaking up every single bit of him I could, a wide dosey smile across my own face.

Suddenly snapping out of my daze, I heard the sound of someone clearing their throat from behind me. Startled, I jumped in my seat a little and let go of Jack's hand. I turned around to see the pilot standing behind us, arms folded impatiently tapping his foot.

"You two boys were supposed to be off this plane half an hour ago!" Mortified, I looked at the time on my watch, realising Jack and I's mistake. Oh no. We were late.

Looking at each other wide-eyed, we grabbed our bags and rushed off the plane.

Corbyn's p.o.v.

It had been half an hour, and I was already on the plane. Finally seeing Jonah and Daniel, I walked over to them. "Hey guys!" Jonah and Daniel sprung apart, but not fast enough for me not to see what they were doing. Jonah removed his hand from Daniel's thigh, pretending nothing had happened. I thought this to be a great time to take advantage of some jokes. I sat down as if I hadn't seen anything.

"Wow guys, it sure is hot in here today!" Jonah and Daniel looked between each other, uncomfortable.
"One could say... it's steamy." I noticed Daniel nervously gulp out of the corner of my eye. Placing my hand on his thigh, I whispered something in to his ear. "Wow Daniel, have you been working out? Your legs feel great!" I pulled away, only to see an infuriated Jonah. Ah, it was just as I suspected. They liked each other. 

Jonah looked around, attempting to divert his anger on to something else. His leg impatiently tapping, he turned his head away. He paused for a moment, confused. "Hey, wait a second...where are Jack and Zach?"

Jack's p.o.v.

Me and Zach wildly ran through the airport, trying to find our gate when I saw a mop of bleached blonde hair disappear through one. Me and Zach looked at each other, nodding, and sprinted towards it.

We finally arrived there, panting, holding out our tickets. "Hello there, just in time t- OH MY GOD!!!" The stewardess dropped our tickets to the ground in shock. Me and Zach looked at each other, confused. "YOU- YOU'RE-..." We suddenly realised, she was freaking out because she recognised us. "I LOVE WHY DON'T WE!!!" Me and Jack looked between each other, laughing. We walked round and gave her a hug. "We would love to stay and chat, but we'll miss our plane!" She nodded, lost for words, and let us through.

(No p.o.v.)
After the boys had left, the flustered worker went back to pick up their tickets, realising she had forgot to check them. She picked them up and gave them a quick glance, only to see...

Oh no.

Zach's p.o.v.

Me and Jack collapsed in to our airplane seats, exhausted. We let out a laugh, relieved we made it in time. "Hello everyone, this is your captain speaking. We will....."

I drained out the sound of his voice, flicking through a magazine on one of the seats. Although I wasn't paying attention to what was being said over the intercom, I perked my ears at the end of his short speech. Wait a second...

I'm sure he just said the name of some random place in England, not London. I was sure of it. "Hey Jack, aren't we supposed to be going to London..
?" Jack shot me a look, his eyes wide, alarmed. "Oh, shi-

Sksksks no swearing for Jack today. Welp, I wonder how things are gonna turn out now that Jachary are lost and alone...😏
