Can you keep me safe?

Chapter 6

The car came and drove right up to the jet. David got out of the front and opened my door "thank you budd" i grinned and he winked at me before opening the boot and taking out two suitcases. David refusing to let me carry my case lifted them with ease up the stairs to the private jet. "After you" he said as inspector Kassir left the plane hastily, abruptly pushing past me. "No manners eh cheeky bastard my mother always taught me to be polite around beautiful women" he whispered to me smirking at me before letting me in front through the plane and cheekily squeezing my ass. "David, we aren't here alone" I said gesturing towards the cabin crew and the few members of elite public. Somehow my boss managed to get us direct tickets to new York on private jet saying it would be safer considering we where only accompanied by a few upper class nobodies. David took us to our area of the fairly large plane and placed our suitcases in the overhead locker reaching up with ease and exposing his toned stomach muscles which I couldn't help but stare at. David sat down next to me it was like a little pod that you could pull a cover over so the outside world couldn't look in. The seats fully reclined and the airline provided you with a duvet and pillow.

I stared out the window longingly thinking about how much my life is going to change. I would miss my friends so much and my home town. all I felt was helpless not being able to change the situation I was in. I started to cry

" eh love what are the tears for" he said reaching over to wipe them away
"David I'm loosing everything even my freedom" I said crying
He pulled me into his arms and I nuzzled my head into the nook of his warm neck. "Well your not loosing me anytime soon" he said giving me the biggest bear hug. We stayed for that some time with him softly rubbing my back and comforting me till the airhostess came to check out belts where on.

The engine began to hum and soon we where moving at speed down the runway. I could see David's body had become tense he gripped the arm rest and his jaw would not stop moving. I placed my hand over David's and gave it a reassuring squeeze. Suddenly I wondered if this made him feel uncomfortable and began to move my hand before he turned his palm facing to mine and enlaced his fingers with mine and gave me another squeeze. I rested my head on his broad shoulder and slowly I could feel his body to relax into his seat. Sleep seemed to wash over me and entice me further into darkness until I felt someone gently  shake me.

"Y/n a member of the cabin crew wants to speak to us" he said softly

I rubbed my eyes and gave him a puzzled look he shrugged his shoulders and got out of his seat and I followed. The lady was short and plump probably in her late 40s and seemed panicked she almost ran her way down the aisle bumping into a few arm rests till we reached the front of the plane
"after we had taken off I noticed a small suitcase  had been stored inside this leather chair" she whispered obviously afraid for the passengers to worry "it does not belong to any of the passengers as all hand luggage has been recorded. We have been informed of a possible terror threat and I didn't want to open it so my colleague thought it would be best to ask for your advice as we know you work with the police" she said panicked her cheeks slightly flushed
"Yes of course know what's your name" David said calmly
"Patricia" she said " ok Patrica y/n and I will see what we can do if you don't mind to evacuate passengers to the back of the plane please" she looked at him nervously "yes of course" she said huffed and hurtled her way down the aisle.

I placed my hands over the suit case and gentle unbuckled the clasp and began to unzip it. David held the back and I pushed it open. What we saw made me sigh in relief
"Just files" I said almost laughing. Relief washed over me as David and I went to speak to Patricia before returning back to our seats.

David leaned over to me and began to kiss me I gently pulled away and rested my head on his shoulder again before I felt his hand run up the side of my leg "your a bit excited" I said raising my eyebrow "I can't help it your just you" he said kissing me down my neck  and running his hands up my t shirt . "I'm going to the bathroom now" I said smirking . I looked behind and could see Davids face washed with hurt until he caught on to what I was doing and a smile ran across his face.

David pressed up against me in the small bathroom the smell of disinfectant and him so overpowering. he began to kiss me all over us both on a high of Adrenalin and relief. i managed to unbutton his shirt and started to pepper him with little kisses all down his defined torso he picked me up and I wrapped my legs around him leaning against the door. He went to shift his weight but hit his head on the top of the light and I started to laugh. He looked down at me with his eyes which where once filled with lust but know with concern. "Are you okay" I said softly rubbing the back of his neck and jumping back down  "no it's not my head that I'm worried about look" he said gesturing to the light that was now broken. underneath it there was a large rectangular brief case. He took it down cautiously and subconsciously pushed me behind him. I peered over his shoulder and could see what was in the case. "Shit there was another one" I said my heart quickening "I will go tell patricia to request an emergency landing" I said moving out of the toilet .David just shook his head " there isn't enough time love" he said pointing at the timer surrounded by wires his voice slightly shaking. " I can defuse this, go and get Patricia and tell her to move the passengers to the rear and get me something like scissors um maybe in a first aid bag" I said with authority, david squeezed my shoulder  without saying anything and ran out, hastily buttoning up his shirt. I began to examine the device it seemed fairly simple and not too tricky. It has various wires protruding from a single cell  and the main power source was coming from underneath the trip wires.

David ran back with Patricia the lady now looked even more flushed with beads of sweat trickling down her face. "I've moved everyone to the other end of the plane" she said David passed me a pair of silver bandage scissors and slumped down next to me ."Love I need you to get to the back of the plane now I can do this" he ordered his hands shaking
"David I'm not going anywhere ok we can do this together besides you don't know what your doing " i said softly smiling at him and placing my hand over his and squeezing it

"Im gonna need you to cut the red wire whilst I'm unscrewing the bolt on the cell" i said looking up to David who had sweat running down his furrowed brow. my heart beating faster as the timer came closer and closer to detonation, I had been trained for situations like these and David needed me.

"David can you gently place your hand underneath the trip wire so I can make a slit though the circuit"I said calmly

"Aye got it" he said

"Right when I count to three we are both going to cut the wires" I said my voice slightly shaking

David looked at me dead in the eye " love you still have time go to the back of the plane if it goes up you might still have a chance" he said pleadingly

"David lets be honest if It goes off we are all screwed" I sighed
"And I don't wanna be anywhere without you next to my side I'm falling for you Budd" I said with a tear trickling down my cheek

David gently pressed a kiss on top of my head " I love you y/n" and I squeezed my eyes shut trying to savour his touch

"Three two one"
