Take A Chance

Lungs. Air. Love

Sunna's POV

"Hey Sunna, It's me Luke. Lets do something," Luke says straight into the phone.

"Umm, sure. When?"

"Tomorrow. We could go bowling or to the beach, although it's a bit cold." I cut him off.

"Luke, I can't. I would love to but I can't," I say disappointed into the phone. I can hear him finally breathe out.

"Oh, well umm."

"Actually my sister is over that's why I can't, but if you don't mind her tagging along," I say into the phone and he cuts me off. Payback.

"Yeah that would be good," He says and I can tell that his lungs have decided that they like the taste of air.

"Well I'm just going to pick her up from the airport, she might be a bit jetlagged but she will be up for it."

"Okay, text me what time and stuff, oh yeah Calum's comming. Bye." He says not caring what I will think, but I want Calum anyway.

"Sure, bye." I hang up.

He wants to go out with me, I think over and over again while I attempt to haul a taxi. After about 5mins of taxis driving past one finally pulls over. An African guy with short black hair and dark skin.

"Where you off to mam," he said calmly with his accent.

"Off to he airport, if that's alright?"

"Anything for a lovely lady like you," he looked up and down at my body and just stared at my chest.

"Actually I think I will get a bus," I say as I close the door and start to walk off.

He winds down the window and starts to follow me. "No bus go to airport," he said trying to convince me to stop but I don't. I keep walking not noticing him. He starts to yell at me in his first language, I keep walking. It starts to cause a commotion but I just keep walking straight. The road ends. I just stop and he comes around the corner.

"I would love to take you to the airport, if you'd let me, mam."

I'm stuck. I'm like a sitting duck ready to be shot. I don't believe in god but I pray anyway. My parents always told me to yell and scream if someone tried to do anything to me. I always thought I could just stare them to death, open my eyes and creep them out. Or in my childhood mind kill them with my lazier beams popping out of my eyes melting them instantly, making them my fire to roast my marshmallows. Ummm, marshmallows. I just stood there and shook my head. I started to walk back, and back, and back. Until I bumped into. Into Sidney.

...

She somehow got rid of 'Artie' I think that was his name. Apparently he was always trying stuff to people in this area. She took me to a cafe and we just sat. We sat there for a while. I'm so glad she was there, I don't know what would if happened if she wasn't there.

"Thank you for helping me," I say meaning it.

"It's okay, where were you off to anyway?"

"The airport!" I start to freak out because there was not way I was getting a taxi and I didn't have a car, oh and I had to be there soon.

"I can drive you there if you want?"

"Yes, oh yes please," I say getting up from the table and grabbing my bag.

"Okay, I can get you there but I can't drop you back. Are you picking up anyone?"

"Yeah, Honey."

"Don't worry you will be fine catching a taxi back. Safety in numbers," she says comforting me.

We eventually hit the road and I fill her in on the facts and the fantasies about Luke and I, and we'll all the boys actually.

"The boys do like you but it seams like because they don't know you they prefer Luke over you, does that make sense?" she questions me

"Yeah, I didn't think of it like that. So they do like me they are just looking out for Luke."

"Yep. So Luke and Calum likes you, who are you going to choose?"

"What choose? I can't choose because only one likes me,"

"Sorry sweetie but you are blind. Calum wouldn't of stayed with you if he didn't like you."

"He was trying to get Luke and I to go out, dah,"she's crazy thinking of that. I don't think of Calum like that.

"Yeah, but"

I cut her off. "There are no buts, Calum is a friend. Okay I know you normally know what's right, but he's a friend. Why don't you come with us tomorrow and you can see that he IS a friend."

"Okay I believe you, it just seams a bit odd. Maybe you are right and I am wrong, but please keep an eye out."

"Will do. Thanks Hun," I say kissing her cheek and getting out of her pastel blue beetle.

I walk into the airport and I'm lost. Signs going every which way possible and I should be following them but the problem was I don't go every which way possible, I only go one way. And if I don't know what way it is then I don't go. I stay there still, not moving, slightly breathing, in and out. Well at least I'm not hyperventilating.

I walk up to someone at a 'help desk' and she told me where to go. I slowly follow her instructions and I get a text. From honey.

'Hey sunshine where are you?' Ehh so impatient but I love her. I'm so glad we actually get to spend some time together. She is my everything.

'Look around' I send to her even though I can't see her.

'Oh I see you, did you die your hair.'

'No abort, abort mission'

'Oh god where are you' I can tell that she just went up to someone.

"Hey Hun," I say to her before she starts squeezing me like a lemon.

"Hey Sunna," we break apart. "What have you been up to? Any boys? Oh wait you are in the anti-boy zone, Aren't you?"

I pause.

"You little flirt, well first time flirter. What's his name, job, do I know him?"

"Yeah I think you do, it's Luke from 5 seconds of summer."

"Haha, no seriously who is it?"

I just look at her not saying anything. Her eyes widen and so does her mouth.

"Omg, you an tell me everything when we get in the cab I need to sit down these shoes are killing me," she says as she takes off her heals that I gave her. I wish I got a pair for me but I prefer flats.
