Pax East 2017
(Jack POV)

"Attention passengers, we are now approaching Logan International Airport"
I sighed. Finally. This felt like the longest flight to date. I relaxed into my seat and buckled my seatbelt. I felt a cool hand touch mine. It was Signe. I didn't realize my skin was so hot. Now that I think about it, seeing Mark made my stomach fill
/with butterflies.
"Sean? You ok?" I looked over to see Signe's adorable worried look. I smiled softly. "I'm fine love." She smiled in response and gathered her things.
The pilot told us to prepare for landing and the wheels touched the ground. I sighed again. I hate flying. It may be because of how many movies I watch. I internally rolled my eyes at myself.
One by one we exited the plane. Ugh. Luggage, security, blah blah. I just want a nap. I pulled my phone out for a quick second to check the time.
11:58 am
Text message : Mark
Butterflies again. Shit. I cannot understand why I've been feeling this way. What is wrong with me? As I quietly asked myself this I look over to Signe. She was bending down to zip her carryon. Her long hair flowed in front of her face, as she tuckedit
behind her ear, and her porcelain skin in the sunlight.
I have this. I love this. But I don't want this.
What is wrong with me?
I love her, I do. She's my best friend. But what if that's all she is?
Wipe away the feelings Sean. You always do.
Look at the text you idiot.
Mark:10:29am
Hey man! We just landed! Call me when you get here so we can grab some lunch!
A smile appeared on my face and Signe noticed. "Whatcha got there?" She asked jokingly.
I composed myself. "Oh, uh Mark texted me. They landed a bit ago and wanna get some food." Trying to sound casual.
Signe lit up. "Oh awesome I'm starving." Her and Amy have been getting close lately, so that must have made her smile.
We gathered our luggage, and went throughthe airport process before we caught a cab. It was chilly in Boston. The cold air hit me like a brick and I gasped. Yes, Ireland is cold but this is different.
I helped Signe into the cab by taking her hand, and I followed in suit. I called Mark.
Ring ring
"Hey man!" He said,
I melted.
