It's the next morning and we're up pretty early because we have an early flight home for the late celebration of Thanksgiving since we missed it last week. Ted was up before me, but he let me sleep in a little bit. So he got up and dressed for the morning at least and went around and packed our things. After that, he comes to get me up. I mumble in my sleep and shift. 

"Ariel...come on love. It's time to get up." He shakes me gently. 

"Already?" I mumble. 

"Unfortunately yes."

"...alright."

I reluctantly sit up after stretching. I sit there for a while before moving from the bed and grabbing lazy clothes to change into for now. I get ready and then pack what little is left. Once we made sure we had everything, we head down to the lobby turn in the key cards. From there we head to the car and head to the airport after loading our bags and such into it. We get to the airport and check our luggage. Then we go through security before stopping to get breakfast.

"Can't wait to get home."

"I bet."

"What time is everything today?"

"Uh...I don't actually remember. We'll have to ask Mom."

"Ohh, ok."

"Not like it really matters too much anyway."

"Right."

"We'll have plenty of time to relax though."

"Of course."

"Riggs will be happy to see us."

"Very happy."

"It'll be nice to see him. Its been a while."

"Wonder who he'll jump on first."

"Good question."

"I guess we'll find out."

"Yeah. Should be funny."

"I'm sleeping on the plane." I yawn.

"I figured you would."

"Early mornings...ick."

"It sucks, I know."

After waiting for a bit, we get onto the plan when the flight gets called. We find our seats and get settled. 

"Time to sleep now."

"Wait until we take off okay? Let's not piss off the flight attendant."

"Okay."

I wait and once the seat belt lights go off, I get comfortable. It doesn't take long to drift off. Riss and Justin in the meantime are both awake, and get dressed before making sure everything was packed and ready to go. She rubs her eyes and yawns. 

"We can sleep on the plane."

"I know."

Once they had everything, they leave the room and go down to the lobby, turning the cards in and going out to the car. They drive to the airport and go inside. They go through the usual process of checking luggage and going through security. After that they get a little breakfast and go sit at the gate.

"Hopefully we don't have to wait long."

"Yeah." She yawns and rest her head on his shoulder.

"Still tired."

"I can tell." Justin says, kissing her head.

"How are you feeling today?" She asks. 

"I feel better."
