The Kissing Booth Why Now?

43. LEE GOING DOWN *

NPOV

It didn't take me long to make it to my dorm and then head to the airport. It was funny walking to the private jet area and giving them my ID to make sure if I had a private jet and which one I was flying out on. The girl at the booth winked at me "maybe sometime you can take me to Paris?" I started laughing "sorry I am engaged and besides the plane is not mine." I saw her gulp and stare behind me. I glance over my shoulder and see this guy glaring at her and shaking his head. I look between the two of them and before I could ask if she was his girlfriend she says "boss it is not what it looks like." "Really you didn't just ask this young man to take you on a trip to Paris." "What no?" "Really." He picks up his hand and I see his tablet opened to a video and I soon see her asking me out. She looks around "it is because I know him." "Really because if you did know him you would have known he was engaged." I look around and clear my throat "uhm can I leave? I kind of have an appointment and I don't want to be late so I can pick up my fiancee from school." "No problem sir you can go I have all the proof I need right here." He taps his tablet and I head to the exit I was told and am soon boarding the plane. "Mr. Flynn so good to see you this morning. Will you be needing breakfast, sir?" "No, just lunch." "Ok, sir for lunch we have one of your favorite on-the-go meals." "Cool a meatloaf sandwich." "Yes, sir with BBQ sauce." "Thank you."

"Oh, sir Tony wanted me to ask was there a problem at the gate. We were notified when you checked in but it took you a while." "Oh, the girl at the desk asked me to take her to Paris sometime and when I told her I was engaged and that this wasn't my plane she made a face and then looked scared. When I looked behind me I noticed another man and I eventually learned it was her boss. Turns out he has a recording of her asking me out." "Oh, yes we have heard about her. She likes to ask all the men that use private jets to take her places. Several complained to her boss. She claimed it was the other way around and since it was her word against theirs they had to get proof to let her go so they started to monitor her." "Oh, so more than likely when I return she should be gone." "Yes sir." "Good. I hate it when girls hit on me then get upset when I say I am engaged. The worst ones though are the girls that say what my fiancee doesn't know won't hurt her." She shook her head "unfortunately there are some really low-class women out there sir. Well, go ahead and buckle up so I can let Tony know you're ready."

It wasn't long before we were in the air and on our way. Tina the stewardess made sure I was comfortable and served me my lunch an hour into the flight and I knew that Mary made the meatloaf the moment I bit into my sandwich. I smiled and moaned and looked at Tina "Mary made this didn't she." "Yes, sir and she even sent enough for a second sandwich just in case. She said you would know if she made the meatloaf or not." "Yeah, the only other person besides my mother that makes a good meatloaf is my Shelly." She smiled "it is good to know that you love Miss. Evans so much Mr. Flynn." "You better believe it, Tina. Will you and Tom be taking me home on Sunday?" "Yes, sir." "Ok thank you." Once I was done with lunch I put all my garbage in a bag and once Tina took it away I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Tina woke me up "Mr. Flynn we are getting ready to descend into LAX." "Thank you, Tina." "Oh, and Mr. Evans said he will meet you at the gate." I nodded and put my seat up and couldn't contain my excitement at seeing my girl soon. Once the plane stopped I made my way outside where Tina handed me my bags waving bye to her and Tom I made my way to Max. He smiled at me "so, did Tina give you grief." I chuckled "as if, Tom would kill her." "True too true. Those two are so in love. I am glad Mary hired a married couple for the plane." "I think that was a great idea." We made it into the car and soon to the tailors. Luckily since Max had already picked out the tuxes all I had to do was get measured and we were done. Max let me know that they had already bought my tie and all I will have to do is come in two days before the wedding to make sure the tux fit and then we will get to see him and Mary become one again. As we pulled away from the tailors I was bouncing in my seat "Noah you ok son." "Yes, Max I just can't wait to see Shelly."
