His POV.

Flashback...

"Jealous much?" She asked teasingly and I rolled my eyes. "Aww, don't be jealous it's bad, specially when you're jealous of yourself." She said and walked to her Mom fast.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Remembering what she said made me smiled for the 6th time in this whole hour, we're in line to check in. I'm just right behind her, but I don't want to start a conversation since I saw her brother looking back every minute.

As we are getting closer to the booths, I am getting closer to her. Vanilla candy. A scent that I'll never forget. Her scent.

Passing these booths is nothing to me now, unlike before. My Mom tugged my arm pulling me to the other booth open.

I looked at her while she's talking to the man in the booth.

"Niel!" My Mom whispered, I looked at her confusedly and she looked at the man in the booth in front of us.

"Please be attentive and look at the camera at the top for me. No smiling please." He said sternly. I looked at the camera and my Mom pulled me to the exit while thanking the man in the booth.

While walking we past her and her Mom laughing. She looks so freaking beautiful. Laughing with almost no eyes. Smiling widely.

We walked through the claim baggage area to get our luggages. And exit the airport, it's like I lost nothing. I know her name and username. And I think I'm in love again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Her POV.

Waiting in this line is making me uncomfortable, since I'm not used to standing for a long time. So I keep on fiddling on my phone.

I looked up and look at my back and I saw Niel, I blushed at how close we are. I went to an open booth where a man checked my passport and visa. I thanked him after some checks and pics.

I went to my Mom where she is waiting. She told me a story about a Chinese Woman who was having a hard time and she was laughing. I tried to hush her but laugh with her instead. As we wait for my brother and Dad, I saw Niel pass by with his Mom to the baggage claim area. I'm a little disappointed not getting his full name or Facebook username.

After getting our baggages, my Cousin was already at the front of the airport waiting for us with his company car.

"Wassup guys! How was your flight, Ma?" He asked my Mom. He calls my Mom "Ma" because she was like a second mother to him.

"It was a smooth flight, but the food is not good." My Mom complained.

"Well don't worry, Ma. I'll tour you around Dubai, but I'll bring you to Dubai Garden first." He said and smiled.

"So how's school, Paige?" He asked emphasizing my second name.

"Please stop calling me Paige. But school is nice." I said as I don't want anyone calling me Paige.

"Okay okay, chill you look like you could kill someone." He laugh as he pat my back. "Okay so first we'll stop by at the apartment, I rented for you guys." He added and started the car.

After we arrived at the apartment, I immediately connect my phone to the internet. A friend request notification suddenly popped out. Nathaniel Sandoval sent you a friend request. I click accepted thinking maybe it was someone I know. Then a message was sent to me.

Nathaniel: Hi

Erin: Hello?

Nathaniel: You don't remember me huh?

Erin: Sorry, but may I ask who you are?

Nathaniel: I'm Nathaniel Sandoval, but Niel for short. I was the one who gave you a handkerchief.

Erin: Oh sorry! I didn't catch your whole name a while ago.

Nathaniel: No it's okay, so where are you heading today?

Erin: I don't know, my Cousin told me to pick between Dubai Miracle Garden and Ski Dubai.

Nathaniel: Ohh, actually we are going to Dubai Miracle Garden today. You know just to stop by.

Erin: Oh I'll ask my Cousin, cause my parents doesn't like cold places.

Nathaniel: Okay.

"Hey Mac! Where are we going today?" I asked him.

"Dubai Miracle Garden, why?" He said.

"Nothing!" I shouted back.

Erin: Hey, we are going to Dubai Miracle Garden today too. So I guess I'll see you again later?

Nathaniel: Yeah I'll see you again later.

I guess I'll enjoy this trip.
