*Baljeet Bhatnagar' house*

~Ginger~

"So let me get this straight, you want me to go on a trip with you"

"That's right" my boyfriend said with a nod

~Baljeet~

I was going to take Ginger to India to show her the world I was born in

But I want to surprise her so I did not tell her where we were going

"So when do we leave" She asks with a pen and a pad paper in hand, easy to tell why

"The Tickets slate the plane for takeoff at 7:00 AM"

"So to account for security check, getting the luggage dealt with, and the walk to the gate."

I do a little mental calculation for the Security check needs a big area of time so, and we need to make sure that our luggage is sealed properly...

"I say we need to be at the Airport around 5:25 AM"

She took down everything I said and formated into a Bullet list

I also filled her in as per when the return trip tickets about 4 days later virtually the same time as the first set of tickets, Mom described the standard climate of India this time of year so Ginger would have a pretty general Idea as per what kind of clothes to pack, I also had a small fortune in Rupee's I converted From US Dollars from my Mercenary Homework service, not counting the American money I personally had stashed away in my bag in case of emergencies I had roughly 25,000 rupees to split between me and Ginger

It was getting late so I grabbed my coat so could walk Ginger home

As we walked down my front walk I couldn't help but notice how far Ginger has grown as a person

When she and I started dating, she was I dare say a master of regimentation, scheduling, and planning

But now thanks to Stacy, When I now look at her, I see a a beautiful women that I'll be spending the rest of my life with, as corny as that sounded it was true,

As we parted with a kiss at her front door

I head back to my house with the satisfaction, that India will be the place where I propose to the love of my life

*Richmond International Airport*

~Baljeet~

It was 5:23 AM

I thought ahead by creating a sign with Hirano in Big Letters, I also had greased some palms to allow me to occupy a parking space so they would have a parking space when they did come

And thanks to the sign Stacy pulled up with Ginger in Shot Gun, not two minutes later

I helped Ginger get her bags out of the trunk, she surprisingly had two

One was on a set of wheel and had a retractable handle the bag it self was a little past my waist in the game of height I swear she could fit me into that bag and one couldn't tell if their was a body in their, I figured that was the clothes and other necessities she had packed

And the other was practically half the size of the other bag I figured that this bag was her toiletry bag, and other nesseceties

I signaled to Stacy that she is free to leave

And she did evidently for another special night with Coltrane

As Stacy had pulled away, Ginger and I had figured it was with for us to get to our flight

*after the Baggage, and Security Check*

~Baljeet~

After the annoying and tedious security and baggage check, we got to our gate without so much as a hassle

Ginger evidently was feeling cold, and I could blame her since we were outside in the cold and the fact that one of the A/C Ducts was like 2 inches to our left and right on top of us

I how ever didn't mind sharing my warmth with her so I let her snuggle with me

*a couple minutes later*

A character announces that a flight to India was now boarding after I heard the number It was our flight

I was about to stand up but Ginger had apparently fallen asleep on me evidently she pulled a late nighter to get her clothes ready

Since my backpack was my carry on and Gingers luggage was properly sealed and sent to the Cargo hold

I carefully picked her up in my arms so not to wake her

Since I had done some weight lifting class with Buford a couple years ago

I found lifting and carrying Ginger to be easy as Childs play

We were in coach, luck us our seats as indicated on the tickets were window seats (A/N Two seaters)

I carefully placed her in the seat closest to the window so I placed my bag on the floor between our seats and I didn't trust the over head compartment enough to give it my bag which saw me though about 8 years of college as well as high school

I raised the little bar between us carefully moved her so she was back to snuggling me

As the flight attendant had finished her explanation of safety I heard the engines turning over

As we taxied out to the run way, as we picked up speed

"India, I'll be their soon, and when I leave" I said very quietly so not to wake the sleeping beauty on my shoulder "I will have proposed to my fiancée"

(A/N a good way to end this chapter, I would like a review from any of you, so three more chapters to go before to end the story, Chapter 9 shall be coming either October 3rd or the 4th (to give myself a little cushion to account for any potential writers block)
