Chapter 2: iGo For A Ride

I finally went to sleep.

I woke up at seven. I had everything packed. The dork was all I could think about. The conversation just felt...weird. I stopped thinking about it and left for the airport.

My mom drove me. She got back from her date. The one she left for two days before.

"You got everything?"

"Yeah, I got it."

"Have fun!"

"I'll try." My mom may be a little...unusual, but she has her heart in the right place. I think. I went inside and Freddie was there. He came up to me.

"Hey," He said.

"How long have you been here?"

"About fifteen minutes."

"Well, okay."

"You got your ticket?" He asked.

"No, I let a pack of wild monkeys eat it."

"Maybe they were related to you."

"Just give me the ticket Benson," I looked at my ticket and then at his.

"Great!" I said.

"What?"

"Look," He looked at our tickets; our seat numbers. Mine was 24C and his was 24B. Fantastic! Now I'll have to sit next to the nub!

"Would you rather sit next to me or some complete stranger?"

"In this case?" He nodded, "A complete stranger."

"Puckett, why don't you build a bridge and get over it."

"Whatever." Then we heard a woman's voice over the intercom.

"Flight 247 to Nashville now boarding. Flight 247 to Nashville now boarding."

"That's us," Freddork announced.

"Alright, let's get this over with."

"Don't you want to see your Mamaw?"

"Yeah, I just don't wanna sit on a plane next to you for three hours."

"Oh, come on." We stepped into the plane and found our seats. I sat by the window. Fredpuss was too scared.

"Why are you so scared to sit next to the window?" I said as we put our luggage away.

"I'm not! I'm just a little afraid of heights. That's all." I laughed. We sat down, and Freddie pulled out his laptop. I saw him go to Google.

"What you lookin' up, Point Dexter?" I asked, curiously.

He rolled his eyes and said, "What Nashville looks like." I grabbed the laptop.

"Hey! Why'd you take my laptop?"

"If you look it up, you won't get the full affect."

"Full affect?" He repeated.

"Yeah, Nashville is one of those places you have to see to believe." It really is beautiful.

"Wow."

"Yeah." Then the flight attendant started talking.

"Welcome to flight 247 to Nashville! Please fasten your seatbelts as we are getting ready for takeoff. We should arrive in Nashville in three hours."

"I hate flight attendants," I commented.

"You hate everybody."

"No, I don't, just irritating people. Flight attendants are so cheery all the time." He rolled his eyes again.

If I had to ride with him for three hours, I was going to have to make the best of it.


"Can I get a bag of honey roasted peanuts?" I asked the flight attendent.

"Sure, I'll be right back," She replied.

"You're seriously going to get a third bag?"

"Why do you care?"

"I don't."

"My point exactly."

"Oh, just eat your peanuts!"

It had only been a half an hour since we got on the plane. I was annoying him, which I enjoyed. They had a movie playing: Miss Congeniality. I loved that movie. Sandra Bullock reminds me of...well, me.

"One bag of honey roasted nuts." The flight attendant said, handing me the bag.

"Thanks."

"Do we really have to watch this?" Freddie asked.

I put a handful of the honey roasted nuts in my mouth and said, "Yes, now shut up."

"Did anyone ever tell you to chew with your mouth closed?"

"Yeah, but I never listen."

"Ah. Not surprised."

"Aw, shut up, tech boy."

"Whatever." Then a voice came over the intercom.

"Passengers we are heading into a thunderstorm. Please buckle your seatbelts."

"What?" I asked.

"She said-"

"I know what she said, Dipthong!" He was making me mad, "We won't be there in time!" I wanted to be there by eleven thirty.

"Just chill out; it might pass over." Then the plane started shaking really bad.

"It's not passing over!" I was so scared. I grabbed onto Freddie and shut my eyes as tight as they would go. "Freddie!"

"Sam, it's okay, I'm here." He was scared, he just didn't want to admit it. "It'll be alright."

My suitcase fell and opened. The picture of my dad fell out.

"No!" I unbuckled my seatbelt and went to get it.

"Sam!" I ignored him. I got the picture and then I fell. "Sam!" Freddie repeated and came to my side. "Come on, we got to go back to the seat."

"Okay" was all I could say. We got my suitcase and put it back on the luggage rack thing. Once we were buckled in, Freddie asked me a question.

"What was that?"

"This is the only picture of him I have left!"

"You could've gotten hurt!"

"I know!" I grabbed onto Freddie again and waited. The storm did stop and the plane stopped shaking.

"It's over, Sam."

"Good, I thought we were going to die."

"I would not have let that happen."

"Yeah, sure." I said, sarcastically.

"I can't believe we just had a near death experience and you're mood hasn't changed one bit!"

"Did you expect it to?" He rolled his eyes for the umpteenth time.

Operation Irritate the Dork complete.


It was ten. Only an hour left until our plane landed. I rested my head on Freddie's shoulder. I thought it would irritate him, but it didn't. It felt...right. I let the thought leave my mind immediately and fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was ten forty-five. Only fifteen minutes left. I was starting to get anxious.

"Hey, sleepyhead," Fredweird said, "Carly sent us an e-mail; want me to read it?"

"Go."

"Sam and Freddie, I just got to my Grandad's. I hope you guys have fun! Sam don't irritate Freddie." Too late for that, Carly. "See ya guys Monday!"

"Okay then, what happened while I was asleep?"

"You rested your head on my shoulder and kept mumbling in your sleep."

"Attention passengers! We have now arrived at Nashville, Tennessee!"

Freddie turned to me and said, "Let's go."
