Very important questions please answer: should I make this one into a multi-chapter story? I actually really liked the idea so...yeah *hides*
Day 22- Because You Love Me- Modern AU
Jack was a traveller, Elsa always knew that. They had been friends for a long time, since they were children, really, and while she had stayed in their same tiny town all year every year, Jack and his family had gone to see the world.
She always enjoyed hearing about his travels when he returned; what the pyramids were like, how hot it was in Australia, why there was so much snow in Canada. It all sounded like a dream to her.
In many ways she wanted to be just like Jack; brave and excited to see the world, always travelling to somewhere new. But on the other hand, she liked her town. She liked knowing that if she left her house and turned left she would see a bakery and if she turned right she would see a park. This was comforting to her; she felt safe.
So why on Earth was she here at an airport waiting to board a plane with her best friend to go travelling to goodness knows where for a year?
This was exactly what she asked him as they sat down on the plane, hand luggage above them and seat belts tied tightly around their waist. Jack grinned toothily and replied in the exact same way he always did.
"Because you love me."
