No Strings Attached

Chapter 21- But I Was Breathless By The Look In Her Eyes

“I should’ve talked to her. I should’ve tried. But I was breathless by the look in her eyes.” If U C Kate, JC Chasez

Jordan’s P.O.V

“RISE AND SHINE, CHICAS!!” Willow’s booming voice was so loud that Kat and Rachael would’ve heard her from next foor with our connecting door closed.

I groaned and pulled my blanket over my head. “Leave me alone.” I muttered and closed my eyes again.

I didn’t last 5 seconds before I felt someone jump onto my bed. And before I could through the covers off and scream at them, I felt jumping from the end of the bed.

“WAKE. UP. NOW.” Willow shouted every word as she jump up and down.

I sighed and threw the cover off. I rubbed my eyes a little and turned my body around to look at the digital clock on the nightstand. The big red numbers read 3:30am.

“Are you serious? 3:30 AM? What time is our flight?” I asked, total unaware of what time we had to leave the hotel and what time our plane was actually gonna take off at considering I wasn’t in charge of booking our flights this time.

“Well we’re supposed to be out of the hotel by like 4:15, drive to the airport, check in and all that crap, and by then it’ll be around like 5. Then, we’ll probably end up going to the gift shops for a bunch of random stuff like we usually do and our flight is supposed to come at 5:30.” Heather explained and threw a pair of supras into her large suitcase. “Damn, I should’ve listened to Rachael when she told me to pack earlier.”

My eyes went wide a little at how early everything was. “5AM?! 4:15AM? Who the heck was in charge of booking our flight this time?!” I exclaimed.

The connecting door then open and a smiling Rachael walked into the room. “I did.” She said and pointed to herself. She then proceeded to walk over to Heather and lay a hand on her shoulder. “By booking a flight at an early time, I thought it’d teach you to listen to me and pack and get organized ahead of time.” Heather merely stuck out her tongue at her and continued to pack. Rachael smiled again and walked over to Willow. “I thought it’d teach you to take on a role of responsibility for once and get everyone awake and ready.” Rachael sighed and stared at my sleepy self still laying in bed. “And teach you,” she said and ruffled my hair a bit. “-to stop being such a lazyass!”

“Well hate to break it to you, but even though you’ve managed getting Willow and Heather to do something, I’m still here in bed as you can see.” I smiled and fell against the headboard. “And I enjoy being lazy.”

Rachael shrugged and went over to sit on the couch. “At least I got the other two to move.”

“Good morning everyone!” A sleepy Kat said happily as she walked into the room in her pink pajamas. A yawn escaped her mouth and she stretched a little before sitting down on Heather’s bed. “It’s such a beautiful morning. I can’t believe we’re going home already.”

“I know, me neither. I’m gonna miss my TomTom.” Heather said sadly and paused her packing.

“Yeah, looks like your stuffed animals are gonna have to make up for his presence.” Willow joked and got up to put her hair into a ponytail. “You can make out with your pillow pet in the middle of the night and just imagine it as Tom.”

“Oh shut up, like you won’t miss locking lips with Siva every five seconds.” Heather pointed out.

“Yeah but at least I don’t try to swallow my boyfriend when I’m kissing him.” Willow shot back with a laugh. Heather ran to pick up a pillow and threw it at Willow, hitting her in the stomach, but definitely didn’t stop Willow from laughing.
