Hehehe, okay, so I just realized that someone's missing. No one has asked about her, so I didn't realize until just now. So, if you haven't figured out already-- I'm completely ignoring the whole Tina/Warrick thing. Childish, maybe, but in my world she doesn't exist. Welcome to my world.
So heres the next chapter. Sorry it took so long.
PS: Celebrate! This is the firstfanfiction I have that has gone over three chapters!
Enjoy!
Sara's eyes flew open and she reached for Nick's hand when she felt the airplane shake.
"Hey it okay." Nick put his other hand on top of hers. "It's just a little rough air. Were going to be landing in about five minutes."
Sara closed her eyes again and tried to control her breathing. She wasn't afraid of flying, but feeling the airplane hit turbulence wasn't a feeling she welcomed. Plus she had seen Final Destination and other airplane disaster movies and shows one too many times.
"How long was I out?" She asked trying to distract herself.
"I don't know, I was flirting with that flight attendant most of the time." He replied receiving a playful smack on the arm.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please put your seats up and your tray tables into their locked positions." A flight attendant announced over the speakers. "Notice that the pilot has turned on the fasten seatbelt sign…"
"Can you believe were finally here?" Catherine asked excitedly as she looked out the window. "Well, here, but not there."
"We'll be there soon."
"Then it will be a week of…paradise." She smiled.
"I know!" Nick clapped and rubbed his hands together "No distractions, no work, no early rollouts, just…relaxing."
The plane landed and soon they were off the plane and in the airport and getting their suitcases.
"There's mine." Sara waited until her bag was in front of her, and tried pulling it off the conveyer belt. It wouldn't move. She tried to let it go, but somehow her bracelet got caught on something and the only thing she could do was follow the suitcase down the conveyer belt.
"Nick!" She called over her shoulder. "Help me! Excuse me!" She tried taking off the bracelet, but the clasp wouldn't work. She pushed past people who were almost laughing at her and forced herself to calm down.
"Sara, just pull." Nick was right next to her now.
"I can't Nick, it's stuck to the belt, and my bracelet got caught."
"Why are you wearing a bracelet anyway?"
"Can we discuss that later?" She looked up and saw that the end of the line was coming up. "Hurry Nick!"
Nick tugged on the suitcase and it still wouldn't budge. "A strap got caught during one of the turns."
"I don't care!" Sara was now frustrated, angry, embarrassed, and feeling really, really stupid.
"Wait! Take your bracelet off."
"The clasp won't work." She looked up again, and saw that the end of the line was right there.
"Just pull Sara. I'll buy you a new bracelet."
Sara took a deep breath and mentally counted down, preparing to break the bracelet that meant so much to her. Three…two…
Suddenly the belt stopped and she breathed a huge sigh of relief.
"Is there something wrong here?" A security guard asked as he walked up to them.
'No, I just need to hang on to my suitcase because I have an emotional attachment to it and I will cry if it goes through that little door right there.' Sara thought.
"She just got stuck." Nick was saying as he tried to unhook the clasp again. "There we go." He took off Sara's bracelet and handed it to her.
"This has happened before." The security guard said and yanked on the bag. "It's like those pop machines you see in movies." He tugged a few more times, and the bag came loose. "Gotta hit it just the right way." He smiled and winked at Sara.
"Thank you so much." She took the bag from him.
"No problem." He turned to Nick "Keep an eye on her. She's trouble." He smiled and walked away.
"I am not trouble. It wasn't my fault that this bracelet got caught on the stupid suitcase that got caught on the stupid conveyer belt." She said as she tried to put her bracelet back on.
"Sar, he was just kidding, you know that. Here." Nick took the bracelet from her and put it on her wrist. "This is nice. Where'd you get it?"
"My dad gave it to me a long time ago." She said quietly. "I just recently found it."
"Nice job Sara!" Warrick clapped his hands as she walked up to him and Catherine who had already got their bags.
"Very nice." Catherine handed Nick his bag.
"Can we get out of here before Sara gets stuck on something else?" Warrick asked receiving an evil glare from Sara as they all walked out of the air-conditioned airport into the warm Florida weather.
Now you know WHERE they are...but do you know where theyre going? hehehe.
More soon.
