My host family is waiting on the other side.
I feel my heart drop.
What will i say to them? What will they even think of me? Do i look presentable? God I knew I should have worn those new jeans mom insisted I had to wear. What was I even thinking wearing my ACDC crop top? I must look so out of place in this fancy airport. I need to escape. I need to change my clothes or maybe just hitch a ride back to Sydney. Yeah , I like that last option.
As I'm about to make my great escape, I feel a hand clamp around my left arm. I stifle a scream as I sneak a glance at whoever my kidnapper might be. 'I've only been here ten minutes and im already gonna die. Way to go Blaine.' As I look up I'm met with an icy stare. The owner of the eyes looks just as cold.
The man attached to the arm is well dressed, wearing a formal suit and tie. His clean shaven face shows that he must be in his late twenties early thirties. His black mop of hair is gel'd back into a neat style. He's tall and looms over me, looking like a real fancy kidnapper. I dart a look at the small black thing in his ear realizing that its an ear piece. Did they plan this out? Did they know I was coming?
Before I have time to scream bloody murder the man speaks up.
" Miss Blaine Henning, I'll be escorting you to the Cunningham's. They have been waiting for you. We have collected your luggage. Please follow me." He unclasps my arm and turns to leave.
I stand staring at his retreating form. He's not for real is he? Does he really expect me to just follow him out of the safety of the...luggage collection area? On second thought...
" Hold on will ya!" I mutter as I speed walk after him. How the hell did he get ahead so quickly? I must look so awkward right now.
When I finally catch up to Mr icy glare, I finally look outside the doors. Bunches of families are crowding the door way. All looking happy and overwhelmed by their loved ones returning. Little kids tackling their parents or grandparents who in return start laughing. I feel my chest restrict at the sight. Man, I'm already home sick.
I shift my stare to a family of four. A woman standing next to two taller guys and a shorter one to her right.
The pair are around the same height and are towering over the woman. They look to be around eighteen. I squint and look a little closer at the boys. They look exactly the same, around about six foot. With dark waves on their heads and built looking frames-both of them are equally as good looking as the other. They both have a strong, calculating aura. 'They must be twins.'
One says something to the woman, he has a short cut with blonde highlights in the front, which makes her laugh and shake her head. The other just shakes his head and mutters something.
I catch myself ogling the pair and turn my attention back to the woman. She's absolutely gorgeous. I can see where the teens get their looks from. Her dark locks hold the same dark colour as the twins except hers has a healthy sheen. Her figure is small but built, in a feminine way. The bright yellow sundress thats accompanied with a beige waist coat makes her look like a nymph. The sunlight sitting around her looks like a golden aura.
Great. Now im ogling her.
The kid standing to her right seems just as out as place as me. His chestnut hair is styled messily and his body posture is bad. His slightly bronzed skin is only displayed by his hand that holds an expensive looking phone in it and from his neck up. His casual hoodie and jeans help give off his laid back vibe. He seems way to interested in whats on the screen than what the woman has to say. This gets him a slap to the back of his head.
I stifle a laugh just as I ram straight into the back of Mr icy. He grunts before turning back to me and staring. I comically gulp loudly before giving him a sheepish smile.
"S-sorry. I wasn't paying attention," I quickly apologize before he decides to really kidnap me. He glares a little longer before stepping to the side.
There in front of me is the family of four. The woman beams at me whilst the three boys just stare. I didn't even realize we were getting closer to them. How long did I even space out for?
" Mrs Cunningham, here is Miss Henning as you requested." Mr icy glare polity informs the woman, Mrs Cunningham.
" Thank you Leo. Will you please go fetch the car so long? We will soon join you, I just want to formally introduce myself." Mrs Cunningham smiles towards Mr icy glare before he nods and leaves. Leo.
I turn and look at the family. The Cunningham's. My host family. I open my mouth to introduce myself but Mrs Cunningham beats me to it.
" Blaine it's so nice to finally meet you, my dear!"
