On Tour with Demi Lovato

Ch16- Aeroplane rides

Carson's POV

I clenched my jaw and held onto the arm rests turning my knuckles white. My body sat tense as I stared out of the window, the ground falling away as we flew higher into the moody afternoon sky. In truth, I didn't like flying all that much, especially taking off. Once I was in the air I was fine and I can deal with landing but it's just taking off that gets to me.

After a few tense minutes the plane levelled out and my grip on the seat relaxed causing my stiff hands to get pins and needles due to the sudden blood rush and my mouth to hurt as I un-clenched my jaw.

"Hey car" a loud voice echoes from next to me causing me to jump.

"Ugh I thought I escaped you" I joked relaxing in my seat a little more at the sight of the ever so famous, yet stunning Lovato.

"No, a bet is a bet. Nat just had to talk to me quickly about a few things which is why I wasn't sitting next to you when we first took off" she states setting down her stuff. "Plus, you looked as though you were freaking out and I thought I should leave you be"

"Bummer she couldn't talk for longer" I reply quickly, ignoring her last comment, feeling smug.

"So funny" she deadpans "anyways, a-"

"Bet is a bet" I chorus with Demi causing her to glare and punch me in the arm "I know"

"And I was not freaking out!" I exclaim, well basically shout in defence, causing Alex and Dustin who were in the seats in front to turn and face us.

"Don't lie. If you gripped that seat any harder or clenched your jaw tighter, you be needing the dentist" Dustin claims.

"Lies." I cry out in mock horror, turning and facing the window with my arms crossed only to hear them all snicker behind me.

"Aw Carson" Demi cooes, pulling on my shoulders to turn me around. "It's ok, your allowed to be scared of things"

I just glared at her. "Just because I tensed doesn't mean I was scared"

"Anyways, Ew get off me, you probably have Natalie germs because you were next to her" I exclaim knowing Natalie could hear.

"Oi! McCartney, I don't have germs, You should be proud that you even know me" she shouted, most the plane either laughing at our exchange or watching a movie.

"Mhmm, Demsicle tells me the same thing, yet here you are. Both single." I reply back, causing Natalie to put the finger up and Demi to once again glare and punch me.

"Honey, your single too!" Cherie exclaims, joining in on the conversation.

"Thank you Cherie!" Nat exclaims exasperatedly.

"That's by choice, obviously. Plus I did make a massive move across the globe only months ago and the only humans other than biological family I have socialised with is you bunch of idiots, my sister and a gay cop." I state jokingly out loud in reply to her question.

"Uh huh, are you sure it's not your germs?" Alecia replies.

"Ok one, this conversation is stupid. Two, the chick I was with last week wasn't complaining." I state, shutting them all up for good and bringing shocked stares in my direction as well as feeling the stare Demi's pointing in my direction against the side of my head.

"Well then, one point for Carson." Mark exclaims breaking the silence "she totally won that and shut you guys up"

"Mhmm, and that's how it's done people" I shout to the rest of the plane. The majority of the girls from the starting bands just laughing, Rissa and Nat were shaking there heads in mock anger and Demi sat still silent next to me. "Well now I have told you all about my sex life, proven Demi and Nat wrong, made people laugh and won a point, I'm going to eat food"
