The Next morning at the Mitchell residence was a bit chaotic what with making sure both the boys were packed and ready by nine, Karen really wanted to make sure that they had enough time for the family to sit down and have a nice breakfast before their flight took off.

"Zach!" Karen yelled up the stairs wondering what was taking her eldest son so long.

"What?" He called back as he walked down suit case in hand making a loud thumping noise when it hit each hard wooden stair.

"Wow- you're ready, and before your brother." She smiled at him shocked that she didn't need the Jaws of Life to get him out of bed and considering he was about to leave for a vacation with his little brother, she was sure he was gonna put up a fight this morning.

"What? Thought you were going to need to break out the Jaws of Life this morning?" It was they're special joke, even when he was younger he was more of a night owl then an early bird, wiggling his eye brows she laughed along with him.

"Thank you for that …you saved me an extra five minutes, so now we can have breakfast." She said brightly as she scurried off back to the kitchen, to finish cooking, Zach took this time to head to the garage to load up the families' SUV with his and his younger brother's luggage.

The rest of the morning consisted of the Mitchell's of trying to have a nice breakfast despite the family's….well the parental part of the family's marital issues, packing up the car and making the hour long trip to O'Hare Airport. On the way out of the driveway Zach stared out the window deep in thought when something caught his eye, it was Hannah sitting in her car staring at his parent's car; she looked at him through the tinted windows and gave a small smile. All he thought about doing at this point was just throwing up the middle finger and telling her to go fuck herself, but with his mother present he knew that wasn't an option, instead he rolled down the window and did something a little more personal the bracelet that she had woven for him on a trip away at cheer camp he simply tore it off and tossed it out the window leaving it laying there in the snow.

"Zach roll up the window right now, its freezing." His mother called out.

"Sorry." He said while rolling the window back up and putting his headphones back in blasting music that he hoped would make him forget about all this teen angst.

Over at the Masrani household the Black Hawks buzzer was blaring throughout Bianca's bedroom waking her up the instant the buzzer turned into Chelsea Dagger, she shot straight out of bed smiling brightly and scurrying off to get ready for her busy day. She ran over to turn off her very loud alarm and blast her favorite song 'Primadonna ' by Marina and the Diamonds, dancing her way to her closet she went and picked out an outfit suitable to fly, consisting of her Crawford- Black Hawks jersey, black fleece lined leggings and a black pair of Ugg Boots. Laying her outfit on the bed she smiled that she didn't have anyone with her who was going to nag her about the casual outfit she was going to step into first class with.

"Nothing but comfort for me." She said to herself as she walked into her bathroom to wash her face, apply a light coat natural but sexy coat of makeup, and primp her hair to bed head perfection,

She smiled at her reflection in the mirror once she was done and happy with the outcome, she gave one final fluff of the hair she got dressed into her comfortable outfit and it was finally time to get her luggage down the stairs.

With a rolling suitcase with the word PINK all over it, a carry on giant duffle to match and a back pack all piled on her body, it was time to make some real ruckus banging her rolling bag down the stairs.

"Lola! I'm heading out!" She yelled out at the top of her lungs as she bounced her rolling suitcase down the stairs.

"Oh no you don't young lady you are not going on an overseas flight without having any sort of breakfast, estas loca?!" A short woman wearing a pant suit made her presence be aware just as the young girl reached the first floor, Lola was the house manager of the Masrani's suburban Chicago home and had been for the last ten years.

"Yo- Lola chill- I'm only kidding." She said as she was met with a serious glare.

"Yes Bebe- very funny – stress out the hard working house manager into grey hairs so early in life why don't you." She giggled and left her luggage at the foot of the stairs as the pair walked into the kitchen hoping to find something edible for Bianca to eat for breakfast.

"Hey Lo not for much longer though, I am officially a high school graduate!" Bianca squealed out happily.

"Aye- Dios mio really?" she nodded her head happily squealing out in delight, as Lola pulled her in for a tight hug.

"No need for anything elaborate today – I have to be at the airport soon so cereal and a Naked juice for the car ride will do." Lola seemed to be satisfied with the suggestion so she gave her a nod of the head as the young girl went on a quest for her favorite cereal.

Lola's worries weren't ever without reason, what with Bianca being a star gymnast for the past four years the pressure to be thinner had been high and heavy for Bianca; the last thing that she wanted for her was to fall back into that robotic lifestyle.

Looking down at her watch Lola wondering when the rest of the group would arrive.

"Bebe it's getting late- where are the others?"

Bianca took the last couple of bites out of her Special K cereal and tried to think of a way that to explain the situation without sounding like a total sap.

"Oh um- about that…..they aren't coming." She looked down at her cereal hesitating to mention anything at all about the situation but considering this wasn't a little spec that could have been swept under the rug by Bianca's smart assed mouth.

"What do you mean they aren't coming? You and Kaylie have been planning this trip since Thanksgiving." Bianca took a deep breath.

"Well – let's see…..Kaylie broke up with Austin…so he isn't coming….and the other night at the party Tyler dumped me for Kaylie so they aren't coming…." Lola's eyes almost popped out of her head they were so wide.

"What?" Her sweet accented voice turned into something that sounded like it came from the underworld.

"Yeah dad didn't know what to say…either and it doesn't matter…anyway its whatever. I'm over it." She said not completely convincing the older and wiser woman sitting on the other side of the breakfast bar, still trying to convince herself that it wasn't a total lie either.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Lola treaded carefully into the question she just asked.

"What is there to talk about Lola? My best friend stabbed me in the back and my boyfriend humiliated me in front of the whole senior class…..but on the bright side I get the entire row of first class to myself." Bianca chuckled to herself.

"Really – here you are dealing with such a tragedy and your thinking about having a row of first class to yourself?" Bianca laughed louder.

"Yes Lo- that's the way my lovely mind works…." Lola shook her head at the weird girl sitting before her.

"Well you never know who will take those seats …..Maybe a cute boy?" Bianca rolled her eyes as she walked over to put her plate and spoon into the sink.

"Yeah right Lo- I think cute boys are the last thing on my mind right now." Lola chuckled packing her purse and reaching for her keys.

"Hasn't anyone ever told you that the best remedy to a broken heart is another romance?"

"Seeing as this is my first "adult" break up – no I haven't heard that one before…but I'll keep that in mind, winter fling is something I'm needing to cross of my bucket list."

"No you know that's not what I mean young lady." Bianca interrupted her before anything else could be said.

"No- no you can't talk your way out of this one, you said another romance…." Bianca winked at Lola before taking off in the direction of her luggage.

"So full of humor today Bebe…now let's get going traffic is going to be a nightmare this morning." Lola and Bianca walked through the bright kitchen and through the small hallway leading to the garage and into the SUV where Bianca tossed all of her luggage in.

With a drive down through the estate driveway and through the gate they were off and on their way to O'Hare to catch Bianca's international flight.

Once at the airport the Mitchell's made their way to security where it was time for the parents to say good bye to the kids, Karen was already down at eye level with Gray telling him how proud she was that he was being brave and making this trip.

"Oh and remember – if something chases you….run." She said to the brothers with wide eyes and cautionary tone.

Gray simply laughed at the joke while Zach payed no attention, headphones blasting in his ear as he listened to random songs on his Samsung phone, during his little phasing out mom's voice session someone in the distance caught his eye, fixated on her as she walked towards where he was standing, quickly he flipped his hood back and fixed his hair as she approached the path to get towards security.

She walked in a slow pace, almost in slow motion in Zach's mind, hips swaying side to side, even though she was wearing a large Black Hawks jersey he could still make out the form of her amazing body, her face was bronzed and glowing as he scanned all of her features his eyes set in on her soft red lips, then one glimpse of those deep ocean blue eyes he was completely star struck.

Bianca was getting herself situated with her juggling duffle and back pack on her shoulders, her boarding pass and phone hooked in with her headphones blasting The Wanted's 'Walks Like Rihanna', when she looked up from what she was doing she was met with a stranger's gaze. She stopped dead in her tracks for a moment trying to act as if she was stopping to look at her boarding pass but when she veered up to look up he was still standing there in his tall and toned glory staring at her with those brownish- green hazel eyes; one look into those eyes and she was hooked.

Noticing that he was saying good bye to who she assumed to be his parents she walked by with a smile on her face, hips swaying to the beat of the music trying not to make it seem obvious that she was trying to get his attention.

"Zach- hello…earth to Zach…..let's go!" Gray yelled out to his older brother trying to get his attention, only Zach was too busy looking at the backside of the girl he had been checking out for the last five minutes.

"What?" Zach said back forcefully as his eyes were still fixated on the girl walking down the ramp towards customs.

"C'mon we have to get to the gate!" Gray said while dragging his brother through security.

The next couple of hours seemed to fly by quick what with phones and tablets being fully charged they had absolutely no problem waiting the extra hour for the flight delays, it was around noon when the stewardess finally got around to calling the passengers up to the plane. Since Zach and Gray had first class tickets it didn't take long for them to be called up to the desk.

Once on the plane the boys walked a short way down a long aisle to the first class section, spotting their seats Gray made a beeline for the window seat but when they got to the fifth row of first class only to find that the window seat had already been taken…giving Zach his first highlight of the day. Sitting there in Gray's preferred seat was the jersey girl that Zach had been making flirty eyes with back in the security line.

She was just sitting there with her headphones glued to her ears, music blasting and face pointed towards the window, completely oblivious to what was going on behind her, before Zach could even make a move to sit next to her his little brother stole his middle seat chance to sit next to this gorgeous girl.

As soon as Gray sat down his motions seemed to startle the girl so lost in thought it made her flinch, immediately she took off her headphones to greet the young boy.

"Hi." Gray said as he adjusted himself.

She returned his greeting with a quiet hello, then quickly after getting caught off guard when she met eyes with the guy she was gawking at from a little while ago.

For a second they just stared in shock at one another wide eyes dazed, mouths slightly agate, the first to stop the little shock fest was Bianca who gave Zach a warm smile, Zach followed suit as he sat down in his seat.

"Hey." He blurted out quietly smiling like a complete idiot.

"Hi." She said simply before being interrupted by the flight attendant spouting directions and precautions for the flight.

Soon it was seat belt time as the plane reached the runway and prepared to make a run for take-off, that's when Bianca noticed Gray's grip on the arm rests, smiling to herself remembering her first take off she got an idea to help the young boy.

"Hey- you okay?" She turned to ask the young boy.

"Y- Yeah I'm f-f-fine." He stuttered on his words.

"First plane ride?" She asked.

Gray nodded gripping the arms rests even tighter as the plane sped up.

"My first plane ride was kinda scary too-." Gray looked up at the smiling brunette.

"Really?" she nodded reaching out for the boy's tablet.

"Wanna know a little trick?" she asked while searching through the music selection.

"S-sure." Meanwhile Bianca was having this little powwow with Grey, Zach smiled and watched quietly as she was trying to comfort his little brother.

"What's your favorite band?"

"Green Day…" she touched the keys on the tablet and found his favorite band on the screen.

"Put some headphones on – blast the music as loud as you can take and just relax, pretend that you're on a rollercoaster….just don't scream otherwise the air marshal's get mad." Gray's eyes widened.

"I'm just kidding but seriously give it a try…" She handed him back the tablet watching him rustle around his back pack for a pair of headphones.

"Aw man…. I forgot them in the car…" the boy said sadly.

"Here Gray take mine." Zach didn't mind keeping his brother occupied so he could get to know the sweet girl sitting in the same row.

Gray quickly took the headphones and attached them to his tablet turning up the volume up on it as the pane was gaining speed quickly.

"Thanks for that…that was really sweet of you" Zach looked over at the girl who was shifting back as the plane was about to take off, smiling and blushing for blurting out too much.

"No problem….. I'm Bianca by the way." She smiled and introduced herself.

"I'm Zach." His smile grew wider.

"Nice to meet you." At that point everything that had happened last night had completely vanished from his mind for a moment…it was like 'Hannah who?', he was even feeling bold enough to take the flirting a step further.

"Pleasure's all mine." She wasn't expecting this level of flirtation so soon, all she could do at this point was giggle at his smooth voice.

They didn't really talk much throughout the flight occasionally they would stare at each other careful not to get caught but failing as they were sitting a mere foot away, at one point it got so common during the flight that it just ended in awkward chuckles, neither one knowing what to say.

By the time they had reached the half way point of the flight all three of them had completely knocked out and slept the rest of the way there.

Reaching their destination Bianca was easily roused from her flight nap feeling the plane touch down, she didn't bother to wake up either of the boys even when the plane was starting to let passengers grab their belongings and exit the plane.

With Lola's suggestion from earlier this morning still in mind, she scribbled on a piece of paper her phone number and a note for Zach to call her at some point, slipping it into his hand she clasped it closed to make sure he wouldn't drop it, quickly slipping it in his hand and making sure no one was looking she bent down and did something that she didn't even expect herself to do she gave him a quick peck on the cheek not noticing that she left behind a slightly pinkish red kiss mark on his face.

With that she skipped off in the direction of the exit and made a run for it worried that he might have woken up and started to look for her, she headed for the baggage claim to get her suitcase and find her father who was probably already waiting for her.

Back on the plane a flight attendant walked over to wake up the two boys sleeping soundly.

"Hey guys- we've landed." She said softly giving Zach a light shake.

Zach blinked his eyes opened and nodded at the flight attendant, looking down at his hand he scrunched his face unfolding the piece of paper.

Hey Zach,

Call me, Bianca

Under her name she had written out her number with a wink face next to it.

Once Zach had realized that it was her he immediately looked at the empty seat next to his brother and grinned to himself quickly saving her contact info into his phone and slipping the note into his pocket.

Getting up to get their things together Gray immediately spotted the kiss mark on his brother's cheek and started to laugh.

"What are you laughing at- twerp?" Zach asked in a half serious tone.

"You have something on your face." Gray was well aware of what it was and who it was that gave it to him.

"What?" He turned on the face front camera on his phone and began inspecting his face, once he got to his right cheek he noticed what it was that had Gray so amused.

At first he thought it was from his mom, but she wasn't wearing any lipstick when they were dropped off, he thought for a moment longer wondering who would have kissed him and then the light bulb finally went off…..Bianca had the same shade of lip gloss on her lips as the kiss mark on his face.

He didn't really know what to make of it other than being extremely flattered for the phone number…and for the kiss as well, he couldn't help but smile at the thought of her sneaking a kiss while he was sleeping.

"So where did your girlfriend go?" Gray asked in a teasing tone, Zach merely shrugged not caring that his brother was totally enjoying this.

"Dunno." He said as they made their way out of the plane and into the airport, again with a grin plastered on his face, he had completely forgotten about all of his past girlfriend troubles.
