AVA'S POV

"AVA! wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" I groaned and rolled over to see a smiling Jackson. I shook my head and barried my face back into my pillow.
"Leave me alone.." I said, smiling into my comfy pillow. Jackson laughed and yanked my covers off me. I flipped over and looked at him, my mouth wide open.
"Jackson! That was my favorite blanket!" I squealed, getting up and diving back into my covers and blanket. Jackson chuckled and patted my back.
"Now that your up, get dressed. Were leaving soon!" He said jumping up and down excitingly. I giggled and pushed him out of my room.
"Ok but I need to get dressed!" I laughed, shutting the door. I smiled and skipped into the bathroom, happily yet still tired. I turned on the water and shut the door, before stripping off my clothes and getting in the shower.
The cold water hit my body and I let out a small squeal. It soon became warm and I ran my fingers through my damp hair. The shower felt nice and I quickly washed my hair before turning off the water and getting out, wrapping my towel around my small body. I smiled and walked Into my closet, deciding on wearing some comfy clothes for the plane ride. (in media)
After I got changed I opened my door and saw Jackson sitting against the wall on his phone. I laughed and opened the door more, getting his attention.
"Finally!" He laughed, getting up and walking into my room.
"Oh shut up!" I said, walking over to my vanity. Jackson was dressed in regular comfly clothes.

Black sweatpants, an Adidas white shirt, and some Gucci slides

Black sweatpants, an Adidas white shirt, and some Gucci slides. I laughed at the fact that he had Gucci and just shook my head, focusing back into my mirror as I bagn to apply some light makeup.

15 minutes later I finished applying my makeup and brushing through my hair. Jackson helped me with my suitcase and dragged it downstairs, complaining about how heavy it was. We both walked into my living room to see my mom and Jackson's mom talking. they recently started talking which made me really happy. In fact I think Payton's, Jackson and my mom have a group chat together. They probably gossip about all the kid drama. I laughed at my thoughts and ran up to my mom, engulfing her in a huge hug.
"I'm gonna miss u momma!" I said smiling. I was trying to be strong for my mom, forcing myself to not cry. She hugged me harder, not wanting to let go.
"C-cant breathe." I squeaked out. She laughed lightly and let go of me. I smiled at her and turned around to see Jackson and his mom hugging. They soon pulled away and his mom gave me a quick hug. We got all my stuff out into Jackson's mom's car and I hugged my mom one last time.
"Bye momma! I'll call u everyday! I love you!" I said smiling. She nodded and kissed my head.
"Have fun sweety! Love ya too!" She said, giving me a small smile. I knew my mom didn't want me to leave. And I hate that I was. Of course I love Payton and of course I love my mom. And I know things are hard for her right now, but we planned all this out and I can't back down now.
I waved to my mom as I got in the back of the car with Jackson as his mom got in the front. I rolled down my window and blew a kiss too my mom before Jackson's mom pulled away and we were on our way to the airport, to go to North Carolina.

Jackson and I finally boarded the plane and sighed as we found our seats, which were surprisingly first class. I smiled as I sat down in the comfortable chair.
"Jackson how did u pay for these seats?!" I ask dumbfouled. He smirked and shook his head.
"That's for me to know, and you to never ever find out." He said, rasing an eyebrow at his own statement. I laughed and gave him a quick hug, before sitting back and buckling in. Ive ridden on a plane once before and that was when I was 5, and my family was on a trip to Colorado to visit my extended family. I always thought plane rides were fun but the beginning of take off always scared me, especially how the plane shook and gradually got higher as it took off. I know i sound like a wimp right now. I sighed and looked out the window, which was partcially opened. I looked over at Jackson who on his phone, stalking Instagram pages. I silently laughed and turned to look back out the window. It was pretty early and I really neared to sleep. But I waited for the flight attendant to come out and do the safety instructions before looking at Jackson who was smiling happily. I grabbed his arm as Soon as the plane started moving and he seemed to notice how scared I was cause he grabbed my hand and rubbed circles on it.
"Don't worry Ava, it's gonna be alright." He said. That seemed to help cause I already felt better. I layed my head on his shoulder as the plane began to shoot Into the sky. I closed my eyes and sighed in content. I opened one eye and looked up at Jackson, deciding now was a good moment to ask him about maybe surprising Payton.
"Hey Jackson?" I asked, lifting my head off his shoulder slowly. He looked at me.
"Yeah?" He asked, readjusting his position. I sighed before continuing.
"Do you t-think we could be maybe be able to suprise Payton?" I asked, my voice just above a whisper.
