Twenty-Three

Trixie's P.O.V

I couldn't tell her. Not yet. She would get too excited. So when she asked about why I was out so late all the time I explained the whole work situation. I decided I wasn't gonna tell her till the very last minute.
We had a game night. We drank wine and played games the monopoly and uno well into the early hours of the morning. I put down my cards and in my wine drunken haze went to stand up to get water.
"Katya do you want any water?"
"I'm okay trix I think I'm gonna head to bed"
"Okay Kat. We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow"
"What was that trix?"
Oh shit. I'll just say it's a surprise.
"It's a surprise"
I smiled a half drunken smile as I turned the corner into the kitchen. After I knew she went to bed and I sobered up a little, I booked the flight. Tomorrow at 9:45 pm is when we board. So all I have to do is get her to pack and in the car. It shouldn't be that hard right?

Wrong. It's now currently 4:32 pm and katya refuses to pack until I tell her where we are going.
"I'm not doing it until you tell meeee!"
"Katya I swear if you don't start packing this instant I-"
"You what? You gonna punish me?"
My eyes went wide and I knew what I had to do. I ran to her and our lips met. We made out for a while until I pushed off of her
"Nothing until you pack."
She let out a sigh and started.

At around 6:30 we left for the airport. I had already gotten her passport renewed a few days before without her knowing.

We got to the airport at exactly 7:17pm. Then I led her in.

"Beatrice are you taking me somewhere to kill me?"
"Yes katya. You finally figured it out."
"Oh shut up trix. But seriously where are we going?"
"You'll find out soon enough."

I don't know how we managed to get through security and to the main waiting area still without her realizing where we were going.

"Make sure you are listening to the people calling for boarding because I don't wanna miss it."
"But Trixie I have no idea where we are going."

I look down at my watch. It's 9:44. Any minute they will call it out. Then just after I looked you heard on the speaker

"Now boarding flight 538 to Moscow Russia."

I stood up and grabbed katyas hand.
"You ready for this babydoll?"
"wait... did that just say what I think it said.. you're taking me to .... RUSSIA?!?!"
"Yes Kat. I have been waiting to do this for such a long time. Now let's go before we miss our flight."

Katya practically skipped the whole way there. I haven't seen her this excited for anything in a while and it put a smile on my face to see the genuine happiness this girl was radiating off of her.

Once we got in the plane and got situated she was basically bouncing in her seat.
"Trixie how did you know I wanted to go back to Russia."
"You talk about it all the time! I figured it would be something you would love"
"Yes I can't wait to see all my family and-"

She went silent. Her face went blank and her body got Pale.
"Where are we staying?"
"A hotel near the airport why?"
"You do not post anything about where we are on any social media you hear me?"
"Yes katya what's wrong?"
She was visibly agitated. Her hands were sweating and she was red.
"I know people. They work for the mafia. My family is high up but the people my uncle fucks with are higher. The whole reason I moved from Russia to America is because there was a hit out for my family. And with my mom and dad being parents, they fled. Left everything behind and came there. So until I can talk it out with that side of the family we lay low. So low to the point where you turn off your snap maps."
"Wow Kat I didn't know. I'm so sorry."
"No don't be. I'm excited."

She kissed my forehead and then dosed off. Knowing she was sleeping peacefully allowed me to dose off as well.
