Kyndell's P.O.V

Surprisingly, the plane ride across the country only lasted about two hours.

Surprisingly, I only got two hours to sleep.

So in other words, when the flight attendant told us the plane was landing I almost slapped someone. Sam noticed my sudden frustration and braced himself for the force of my wrath. I almost laughed at him, but instead I turned right back to my pillow (Sam's arm) and tried to salvage five more minutes of sleep. As if that would make a dramatic difference.

After what seemed like ten seconds later, I felt the plane rumble underneath me and Sam gently run his hand through my hair. "Kyndell," he whispered, "It's time to wake up." I disobediently snuggled closer to him, "Come on babe, we have to go re-kidnap a hundred teenage girls and I don't think they'd like to be left waiting."

That caused my head, along with a few others, to swivel up. "Mind your business! You nosey people!" Katheraine huffed from the seat across from us. Jc made 'I'm sorry for her, she's eight months pregnant, not her fault." faces at the people around us.

Sam and I chuckled at the strange couple. "That'll be us one day." Sam whispered into my ear. I felt a pang of something in my stomach but I couldn't identify the feeling, so I just smiled and nodded.

Everyone filed out of the plane in a more or less orderly fashion. Walking through the terminal was always the worst part of flying for me, it always made me feel like the walls were about to collapse. Weird.

Once we made it into the airport I suddenly felt dead. "Sammmm..."

He turned to look at me, "What?"

"Will you carry me?" I asked and saw the debate in his eyes. This would be easy. "Pleasssse?" I looked up at him with my best puppy dog face.

Jc noticed what was happening. "Don't look into her eyes! Don't do it Sam! Girls can get you in trouble with those eyes!" He warned Sam, earning a well deserved punch to the arm from Katheraine. "Ow!" He complained, rubbing his arm while Katheraine just smirked in our direction. Sam looked down at me and I decided to move things along.

Stretching onto my tiptoes, I planted a kiss onto his lips that lasted more then a few seconds. Sealing the deal. I grinned at him, knowing I had won.

"Fine." He sighed and pulled me onto his back with ease.

"Thank you Sammy." I giggled and kissed his cheek.

"Bro, you just lost all my respect. And all of your man points," Kian told Sam, hauling a suitcase off the luggage belt.

"It's worth it." He said, squeezing me closer to his body. Soon enough I fell asleep listing to Sam's heartbeat. No matter what he says about my singing, I swear his heart was the best song I'd ever heard.

When I woke up I noticed two things: 1) Ricky must have hit up Pedo's Inc. again, because we were in another beat up stalker van. 2) It must have not came with heating, because I was literally about to catch pneumonia.

I sat up and looked around for my companions. Ricky was driving with Kian sitting beside him, telling him where to go. Everyone else had their eyes closed in attempt to catch up on missed sleep hours.

"Finally wake up, Sleeping Beauty?"

Well, I thought everyone.

"Go to sleep Jc." I moaned, realizing I was stuck in-between him and Sam. Going back to sleep wasn't an option anymore.

"I can't." He told me, making sure not to wake Katheraine who was laid back against his side.

"And why not?" I asked, propping my legs up on Sam's lap.

"Pre-game jitters." He looked down at Kat, gently rubbing her stomach.

"I already told you, you won't be anywhere near the game. Actually you should probably look up a hospital around here. You know, just in case."

"No, I'm not worried about Katheraine, I know she won't have anything to do with this, but what about you guys?"

I sighed. "We'll be fine."

"That's a lie and we both know it." He said. His voice wasn't upset, he just sounded like he was stating an obvious fact. I snuck a glance at Sam, making sure he was still asleep. He was.

"Yeah, I know." I admitted, running a hand through my hair.

Jc looked at me, reading my mind. "You aren't going to let them go in are you?"

"Nope."

"There is no way you're going to be able to keep him out." Jc said, nodding at Sam.

"We'll see." I turned to look at Sam and smiled, just a little.

Jc knew that I was dead set on this and didn't try to sway my decision-making. "What about Kian?"

"Except him, he deserves a chance. I owe him that much." I knew that if Sarah died then Kian would hate himself the rest of his life for not being there. There was no way I could have the guilt of deceiving a loving brother of saving his little sister on my grave. No way.

Jc nodded and left me alone with my thoughts. Needless to say, I had nightmares.

A/N:I know it's shorter than usual, but the next part needed to be a separate chapter! I will update before next week, but if I reach five votes on this part I'll update then. Comments make me churn butter for weeks.
