Chapter 11
Maybe it was the kiss that changed everything…or maybe it was the night they shared together in the room. But something between Nathan and Hales changed when they climbed on the plane.
Lucas noticed it.
Hales noticed it.
Nathan noticed it.
In the plane Hales' had slipped into the seat between Nathan and Lucas – only to glad that she didn't have to sit between Hubba or Bubba… the two fat middle aged men sitting on either side of Nathan and Lucas. That is exactly why Hales hated sitting in the middle row of the plane. But those two men were soon forgotten when sleep overtook her and Lucas. Nathan stayed awake for much longer as he let Hales' head fall gently onto his shoulder. Slowly he took her hand in his and sighed. It was going to be hard saying goodbye when she started living her life as the princess.
oOoOoOoOoOo
Later in the flight Nathan felt something tickling his nose and he opened his eyes to see what it was. He chuckled when he noticed the blonde hair flowing over his chest. Hales looked up at him and pressed her finger against her lips before motioning to Lucas who was – by the looks of it – passed out. Nathan smiled as she giggled and sat up straighter – turning to get a better view of him. It was dark around them – the only good thing about flying so late.
"Something's on your mind…" Hales said softly and Nathan tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.
"Shouldn't you be getting some beauty sleep for your big day tomorrow?" Nathan ignored her question as he kept his gaze firmly on her hair.
"Is that's what bothering you? Tomorrow?" she tried again but Nathan's smirk stayed firmly on his lips as he tried to get her off his case.
"Maybe I should go to the bathroom…" Nathan laughed as he got up and walked to the back of the plane. Hales sighed as she sat back into the seat – not knowing what to do.
"This is your cue where you follow my dumb brother." She jumped when she heard Lucas talking and turned to find that he had a smirk on his lips as he kept his eyes closed.
"You Scott's drive me crazy sometimes…" Hales whispered and Lucas let out a laugh.
"Yeah…when you're not kissing my twin…now go on!" he urged and Hales stood up and casually made her way to the bathrooms.
As if by some higher power Hales immediately knew which of the stalls (if you could call it that) Nathan was in. When it finally opened she pushed a bewildered Nathan back into the stall and closed the door behind them.
"Hales…what the hell?" Nathan stuttered as she moved them further into the small stall. Slowly Nathan sat down on the toilet as Hales moved so she sat on his lap. Nathan gulped as he tried to control himself – trying to not let it become so obvious that he was finding it very very hot.
"Shh…what's going on with you?" she asked seriously as she shifted her weight and Nathan groaned.
"Hales this isn't the right place…" his sentence was drown as Hales realized how much of an effect she had on him. She moved her arms around his neck and moved against him again – causing another groan to escape Nathan's lips.
"You shouldn't do that Hales. I'm way to worked up to stop you if you start." He tried but his mouth proved otherwise as he latched his lips onto a spot on Hales' neck. They both knew they were going to fast, really to fast. But it seemed like neither one cared about it.
"Nate! Get the hell out of there! There are children a few feet away!" Lucas' frantic voice broke the moment and they both realized they had been saved by him…
The question was…
Did they really want to be saved?
