*Reina's POV*

I heard Hollis' ear pitching scream and shot out of bed. I threw on Luke's T-shirt and ran into her room. "Shh baby it's okay." I said bouncing her on my hip. I went to sit in her bed. She stopped crying and curled up on my lap. I stroked her head playing with her hair until she fell asleep. I carefully moved her off my lap and into her bed. I tip toed to the door and shut the light off. I left the room closing the door silently. I turned around and smashed my face into someone's chest.

"Walk much?" Luke laughed.

"Well I didn't know you were going to be right there!" I laughed and tried to walk past him. He grabbed my hips and threw me over his shoulder. He carried me to our bedroom and threw me on the bed.

"I can't believe we leave in like ten hours." He said.

"Don't remind me. I don't want to leave Hollis if she is going to act like this." I pouted.

"Don't worry. If anything goes wrong, there is always Skype." Luke joked.

"Stop this isn't funny!" I exclaimed and swatted his chest.

"It's okay baby. Let's just go back to sleep." He said. I rested my head on his chest, "I love you."

"And I love you."

I woke up and looked at the time. 11:30. Shit! I shot out of bed and ran into the bathroom. I took a five minute shower and put on my outfit for today. I ran downstairs and saw Ashton and Liv. "Hey!" I said drying my hair.

"Hey babe, ready?" Luke asked walking back in the door.

"Almost." I said running back upstairs. I applied my makeup and left my hair down to air dry. I grabbed my backpack that had my laptop, chargers, and my makeup. I threw it on my back and slipped on my Vans. I ran back downstairs as they all stared at me. "Let's go!" I laughed grabbing Hollis. Ashton and Liv ante driving us to the airport so they can drive Luke's car back home. We all hopped into the car and pulled out of the driveway. I grabbed Hollis.

"Mommy I don't want you and daddy to leave." She cried into my chest.

"Baby we have to. Don't worry, uncle Ashton and aunt Liv will take good care of you. And you can call me every night so we can talk. It's going to be okay baby." I said rubbing her back. Luke patted my thigh and petted Hollis' hair.

"Baby, everything will be fine. Before you know it, those ten days will go by so fast. Mommy and daddy will be home very soon." He said kissing her head.

"But I love you." She said picking up her head, wiping away her tears.

"And we love you. But baby we have to go." I said kissing her forehead. We pulled into a parking space and got out. I carried Hollis on my hip and waited for Luke to get our stuff and for Liv and Ashton to catch up with me. We walked into the building and I set Hollis down and grabbed her hand. She wrapped her tiny hand around my finger and waited for Liv. Hollis grabbed Liv's hand and we started swinging her. We walked up to security and I let go of Hollis and waited for Luke to catch up. I crouched down to the height of Hollis.

"Baby, mommy loves you. Be good for aunt Liv and uncle Ashton. Okay baby girl, I love you see you In a week." I said and kissed her forehead and hugged her. I stood up and Luke crouched down, said what he had to say, kissed her and hugged her.

"Okay I guess that's it." Liv said smiling.

"Oh, I left Hollis schedule on the dinning room table and everything she need on the kitchen table. Make sure she calls me every night or whenever she needs me. Oh and-" I was cut off.

"Okay babe, I think that's enough." Luke said.

"Fine," I said, "Oh and-"

"Goodbye!" Liv and Ashton shouted. I shook my head and laughed. We handed our boarding passes to the person letting people on the plane. I turned around and waved to everyone. They waved back. I walked onto the plane with Luke following me. I got to my seat and sat down and put my backpack on the ground in between my legs.

"Good evening passengers, welcome to flight 852 to California. This is a ten hour flight, right now the temperature in Los Angles is seventy seven degrees. Would should be arriving at 2:30 in the morning." The flight attended said. I put my headphones in but Luke grabbed one and put it in his ear. I smiled and laid my head on his shoulder. I closed my eyes and the darkness slowly took over me.

I woke up and like was still awake. "What time is it?" I asked groggily.

"7:30." He sighed checking his phone. I groaned. I went into my backpack and grabbed my laptop. I opened it, logged in, and went onto tumblr. I logged in and looked through my blog. I got bored very quickly and went onto Twitter. I looked through all my mentions and replied to some, followed some others. I then logged out of Twitter and shut off my laptop.

"Attention passengers, it looks like we will be arriving two hours earlier than planned! We have just entered the Untied States, only five more hours folks!" The pilot said. God, why are people from England always so peppy?

"I have to pee." I said standing up. Everything cracking on the way. Luke looked at me with a disgusted look on his face. "Oh god like you haven't heard it before." I said crawling over him. Thank god it was only us in that row. I walked to the bathroom in the back. I did what I had to do and walked back to my seat. I sat down and cracked my neck, wrists, knuckles, my hips, and back again.

"Okay you seriously need to stop." Luke laughed at me.

"I can't help it." I said cracking my thumbs.

"God you're annoying but you're amazing." He laughed at me.

"Aww thank you." I said pecking his cheek.

"Five more hours, honey." He sighed.

"Five more hours, baby."
