"We're taking the van at the far end of the parking lot," Teagan states, as we walk out of the base. We walk to the far end of the parking lot, I instantly spot a bright red mini van. All six of us squeezed into the van.

Kacey and Cannon sit up front. There are two rows of seats in the back. Teagan, Alex, and I, sit in the seats right behind Kacey and Cannon. Brynn sits in the way back by herself.

I leaned over onto Teagan, she's sitting in between Alex and me."Why am I the only guy?" Cannon questions. "Because girls are taking over the planet," Alex claims. "Nice one Alex," Teagan chuckles.

I glance down at Teagans hand. She's sliding the silver ring on and off her pointer finger. I touch her hand. "What's wrong Teag?" I whisper. "Just thinking about Seamus," Teagan mumbles. I am worried about him too. I am worrying about if we don't come back to him.

"He'll be okay," I squeak. "I know," Teagan responds. Teagan reaches over to my hand and holds it. She doesn't squeeze at all.

"Gregor has arranged a private jet to fly us to Alaska," Kacey reports. "Cool" Cannon smirks. Teagans grip gets a little tighter on my hand, but she doesn't squeeze.

"We're about an hour from the place where they are waiting for us," Kacey claims. "I need to stretch my leg," Teagan states. "Okay there's a gas station a little way up the road," Kacey responds.

We drove about five minutes up the road, we stop at a small gas station. Teagan and I are the first ones out of the van. We walk inside the station hand in hand. We make our way to the restroom.

"Grayson if you're watching the I'm going to kill you," Teagan smirks. I lift Teagan up off her feet and set her on the sink counter. Teagan kisses me, and I kiss her back.

"Get your asses out here guys," Kacey complains, as she knocks on the door. "But I'm making out with my Bae," Teagan sings.

We unlock the door and exited the restroom. There's no line up this time. There's just Kacey. "Come on, let's get going," Kacey insists. We all walk back out to the minivan, and we climb in.

"I love you Ry," Teagan whispers. Teagan leans against my body. "I love you to Teag," I whisper back. Teagan naps the rest of the ride to the jet hanger.

I wake Teagan up when we arrive. "Teagan we're here," I whisper. I run my hands through her long brown hair. Teagan mumbles under her breath as she wakes.

"Come on, let's go," I speak louder. "Okay I'm up," Teagan yawns. We get out of the van and join the others in the jet. Inside the plane it has a modern style. There's a long black couch, a couple black lazy boys, and a table with black dining chairs.

Teagan balls herself up in a chair. "Squirt are you tired or something?" Kacey laughs. "I got up at five in the morning, leave me alone," Teagan jokes back. "Hey I got up at four thirty with Seamus, so stop complaining," I chime in.

The pilot walks in. He's in his early forties, with graying brown hair, and he's very fit. "I am Travis, I will be your pilot and your escort for this mission. You don't have to worry about much, I know your situation and I'm a retired marine," The pilot informs.

"Nice to meet you Boss," Cannon remarks. "I'm not your boss, but I'd like to know who the boss is here," Travis states. Everyone turns their heads towards Teagan. "I'm the Boss here," Teagan claims.

Travis struts over to Teagan and reaches his hand out to her. "It's an honor to work with you Ma'am," Travis speaks. "Nice to meet you Travis," Teagan responds.

Travis nods at the rest of us, and walks into the cockpit of the plane. The engine begins running and we take off.
