Ch. 1-A trip to Las Vegas
Somewhere in the air over Las Vegas
May 14th 2007
9:00 P.M.
"Please return to your seats, the pilot has turned on the seatbelt sign as we are making our final decent to Las Vegas" came over the airplane speakers.
"Damn Adam, I can't believe you're getting married in two weeks and in Vegas no less" Tommy said as he sat his seat back up and put his laptop away. They had all decided to make a vacation before the wedding.
"I know, who would have thought after all the time Tanya and I spent apart we would end up getting married. Maybe there is hope for you and Kim after all"
"Yeah right, it's been ten years and we don't even know where she's at. Hell none of us have heard from her or Jason since Trini's funeral and even then we never really got the chance to talk. It's like she just disappeared. We'll probably never hear from either of them again." He had never been able to invest in a serious relationship, half because he was afraid of getting hurt but mostly because he compared every girl he ever dated to a certain gymnast and no one could ever measure up in his heart.
"Hey you never know, stranger things have happened man"
"Hey guys check out the strip, we are gonna have so much fun." Rocky said from behind them. "More like your gonna get in so much trouble" said his fiancé Aisha, from across the aisle. "Hey Tommy does your family still live in this area?" Tanya asked
"Yeah my grandma has been sick for awhile and my parents are staying with her so they can take care of her, I can't wait to surprise them."
As the group walked through the airport and picked up their luggage they were in awe as Tommy was the only one who had ever been to Vegas and he hadn't been there since he was a kid. They walked out the front door and saw a mess of people trying to get a cab. "Great it's almost 10:00 and it's gonna take us an hour to get a cab" Tanya said as Adam put an arm around her shoulders. Then a guy at the door offered them a limo to their hotel for twenty dollars a person, so they took the deal and piled in. "What time does Billy and Kat's flight come in tomorrow" Tanya asked. "I'm not sure but Billy said he'd call my cell when they get settled in their room" Adam said.
"This is so cool I've never been in a limo before" Aisha said.
The ride to the hotel was only about ten minutes and they were all happy to see the MGM Grand. They Checked in and settled into their rooms. The couples were of course in separate rooms and Tommy had his own.
As Tommy checked out his room he couldn't help but feel really close to Kim, closer than he had in a long time and he didn't understand it. He laid back on the bed and shut his eyes, but all he could see was her smile. Man I've got to get that girl out of my mind. He was soon snapped out of his daydream by the room phone ringing. It was Rocky saying him and Aisha were going to check out the rest of the hotel and asked if he wanted to come. Tommy declined, the only thing he wanted to do was go to bed since he had left directly after school and been up since seven in the morning.
Rocky and Aisha were walking around the theatre part of the hotel. They had already checked out the casino and won $100 and they had only been down there for an hour. The guys had been so excited because the UFC shoots here and wanted to go see the fight that was scheduled for the 20th but the cheapest tickets were $300 so they had accepted that they weren't going, however Rocky decided that he at least had to see where it was.
As they were walking down the hall Rocky was completely oblivious to all the pictures lining the wall and didn't realize how many other events were held at this hotel. "Oh my god" Aisha said as she stopped in her tracks. "What" Rocky said as he looked over, his jaw dropped as he finally noticed what she was looking at…
Author's note: I know it's a short chapter but I had to give the introduction.
