A Million Way's To Love You™∽For All Time∽♥Book 5

∽Chapter 16∽

*Michael's Point Of View*

"Land! Thank God! Beautiful land!", Dylan exclaims, stumbling off the plane. The other passenger's stare at him as if they seemed worried by his outburst. Of course I reassured them that he is fine because since stepping foot on this plane, Dylan made enough outburst for anyone to think it was his first plane ride or he's just insane. Considering the plane ride to Soho New York is indeed his first, I didn't scold him too much.

"Oh get up you dufus! ", Jasmine insults Dylan while he gawked over being able to, as he puts it "Walk on glorious land again!", "Okay you two, Behave.", I scold with a warning eye. Dylan recollects himself, but not before shooting a nasty glare at Jasmine. I shake my head while the rest of the gang, descend down the steps. "Alright Mike, We are going to Mondrian Soho Hotel. ",Bill informed me, grabbing my bags.

I nod. "I'm surprised we weren't followed. Shoot, or even recognized...", "Trust me... They'll be comin' 'round the mountain soon...", Bill said, with a small chuckle. I nod again in agreement. Marilyn walks up to Bill and I. "You didn't tell me it would still be chilly here...", She complains, shivering a little. I grin, glancing over her attire. She is wearing a knee-length black pencil skirt, accompanied by an off-white ruffled linen blouse, and black paten-leather pumps.

"You look fine to me... ", I tease, winking at her. She places a stern hand on her right hip. "Michael if I so much as find a symptom of frost bite, I will leave your ass out in the cold tonight... ", She threatens, taking Bills jacket.  I open my mouth to retort but Brandon walks up carrying Jordyn, who was comfortably bundled in a cozy light green and hot pink tie-dyed jumper, underlined with a plane hot pink sweatshirt.

"Uhh I think our ride is here...", He notifies us, pointing to a midnight black Escalade tattooed with Avon logos. I nod and turn towards the kid's and David, who was just stepping off the plane. "Alright crew, This is what's going to happen. We are going to our hotel and where we will have our lunch okay? And before anyone asks, No we aren't going to just go sight seeing. Bill has arranged museum visits to the Leslie Lohman Museum on Wooster street and also the Guggenheim Museum both are pretty popular museums here in Soho okay?", I hear a few groans from Jasmine and Dylan. I shoot them a look.

"Is there a problem?", Marilyn groans. "Michael it is cold as the damn Northern Atlantic, Let's. Go. Now.", She demands, waking away towards the Escalade. I shake my head and chuckle. "Bill...Round them for me please.", He nods and begins throwing instructions at the kid's. I walk towards the car and climb in beside Marilyn who was still shivering a little. "Awe mama...", I sigh wrapping my arms around her. She tugs at my coat for me to unzip it.

"Girl we both are going to freeze if I open my coat.", She ignores me and unzips it, pressing her head and chest against my chest. I shiver at her touch, as she shifts to find more warmth within my jacket. Her body is so cold. The kid's soon join us, going on about who sits next to who and about what they want to see. "Alright Jackson's, Are we ready to go?", Bill asks, starting the ignition.

We all nod in agreement. "Alright, Rafael and the other's will meet us at the hotel so we've got to get a move on.", I roll me eyes. "Bill stop talking and drive...", I joke, smiling at him through the rearview mirror. He flicks up his middle finger then pulls off.

*Marilyn's Point Of View*

I'm so nervous right now. I'm reviewing my products for the convention tomorrow. With all the money AVON spent on this trip, I hope I do great. This will determine my future in the Avon business. After arriving to the hotel, we checked into our rooms. Brandon and David have their own room as well as Michael and I. But of course little Jordyn is rooming with her mommy and daddy. As for Dylan and Jasmine, they are sticking it out together.
