Chapter 21
"You should maybe just go or something, in case he causes any trouble. I don't want you getting hurt" Dwayne whispers to her stepping in front of her.
"He's not going to do anything in front of all these people is he, lets just go to the gate. Just walk away D, lets not start anything please?" Stephanie pleads, not wanting any confrontation between them and Paul. Dwayne nods his head as the walk off away from Paul towards the departure lounge. Dwayne looks over his shoulder, Paul is still following them, trying to catch up with them but finding it difficult with all the people in the over crowded airport. Dwayne drags Stephanie into another departure lounge as they watch Paul walk past.
"Excuse me sir, are you meant to be at this gate" The flight assistant asks taping Dwayne on the shoulder.
"Err.no we're not, we're just waiting here for someone" Dwayne says scanning the airport for Paul.
"Well I'm sorry but you cant stand here, you are blocking the entrance" The man says as he ushers them out back into the airport.
"He's gone, now let's just go and get the plane and leave," Stephanie says taking her bag from Dwayne and walking away. Dwayne runs after her.
"Do you have any idea why he's here?" Dwayne asks her as the make their way through the crowds.
"No.of course I don't" Steph says, not sounding so sure. Dwayne looks at her and raises his eyebrows "Ok, ok I didn't tell anyone I was coming here to find you, Dad probably sent Paul out here to get me. They must have heard me talking to Chris on the phone or something, I suppose that's why he's here" Stephanie says, they reach the check in desk and hand over their tickets and passports.
"Well yeah that might explain it, don't worry I'll look after you and make sure that big nosed freak doesn't come anywhere near you" Dwayne says, he puts his arm around her and they go into the waiting area and sit down.
"Do you mind if I go and take a quick look around, I never really got a chance to. I've got my cell phone on so any sign of Paul and you ring me straight away ok!" Dwayne says picking up his wallet and his phone and putting them in his pocket.
"Ok I will, don't be too long we've got to be on the plane in about an hour," Stephanie says taking his arm and looking at his watch.
"Ok, I'll only be a little while" Dwayne says, he kisses her forehead and walks off. Dwayne walks along the rows of stands and shops for a while looking through the window, he sees another jewelry shop and looks in through the glass. That's when he saw it, the perfect ring. He wasn't planning on buying the ring yet but this one was perfect, he knew he had to get it. He walked inside and asked to look closer at it, when he saw the price he saw it would cost him as much as he earns in a whole week but that didn't matter. Dwayne was standing admiring the ring when he realized. He didn't know what size he had to get! A quick call to Linda would sort that out he thought.
