Hello :). This was meant to be released before Christmas, but as usual, I didn't have enough time along with revision :(
I have used the characters from first class so they are all still young and Charles can walk. I haven't used Angel because it was too many characters to fit in, she may pop up later though ;)
anyways, I hope you like. It's just a fluffy Charles and Erik fic :)
"Erik," Charles shouted from the hallway"are you ready yet? The car is packed and ready, we are all waiting for you."
"Urgh!" Erik replied, lifting his battered, ripped from use, black suitcase from the bed.
"Coming now." Erik shouts down and begins to lift his suitcase out of his room and begin the trek down the stairs.
He emerges from the house ten minutes later, carrying the small black suitcase to the awaiting car outside, it's still dark so he can just make out where Charles is standing.
"Surely that case didn't give you any trouble?" Charles asked when Erik got to the car.
"No," Erik replied "im just not used to packing." Looking into Charles blue eyes shining from the light of the car.
He walked around to the front of the car and got in the passenger seat, Charles had decided he wanted to drive.
Alex, a reluctant Hank, Raven and Sean piled into the back of the car, squished onto the three seats chattering excitedly.
"We all in?" Charles asks, inserting his seatbelt.
A chorus of yes's replies and he starts the engine.
Whoops and cheers erupt from the back and Erik groans.
"This is going to be a long holiday." He says mentally.
"Now now Erik, they are just excited, they will calm down. Eventually." Charles replies chuckling mentally.
Erik laughs at his pause. "Eventually indeed." And turns his head to look at Charles, his look met with a glance from the shorter man with a smile.
Erik settles into his seat and tries to get some sleep.
After a few hours on the road, it begins to become light, Alex and the latter were asleep, just Erik and Charles are awake to welcome daylight.
"How far away are we from the airport?" Erik asks, mid yawn.
"Urm, I'd say about an hour." Comes Charles weary reply, he's tired too and cannot wait to get on the plane and sleep.
The remaining hour passes quickly and soon they arrive at the airport.
"Were here kids." Charles calls as the mutants in the back begin to stir and wake up.
Alex is first awake out of t he remaining mutants and responds by claiming he needs a wee, Charles tells him to wait ten minutes and begins to try and find a car parking space in the maze of the airport car park, he soon finds one and accelerates towards it, refusing to allow anyone else the chance of stealing it.
he is soon parked and the mutants are making their way into the airport along with their cases in tow, in search of check-in
Charles finds check-in easily and proceeds to give the woman at the desk all the correct documents, passports, tickets etc.
he passes along all their cases and then goes off to find the departures lounge.
The mutants separate off to into little groups and Charles and Erik make their way over to the lounge bar.
They order their drinks and sit in a small booth with a good view to the runway.
Erik sighs, relaxed with a nice scotch in his hands.
"Now the holiday begins." He says content with his drink.
"Mmm, I do hope the kids don't get too much in the duty free though, it would be annoying getting it on the plane." Charles replies biting his bottom lip worriedly.
"Charles why are you worrying about a silly thing like that?" Erik says to him. "If they do then it's their own fault because they will have to carry It."
"true." He replies, still biting his lip.
Erik moves his hand over Charles soft tense one and squeezes gently.
"Everything is going to be fine. We're here now, stop worrying." He looks straight into Charles concerned eyes and can almost feel him beginning to relax.
Thank you for reading, please review, I would love to know what you think :) x
