###########################MAIA######################
I was awakened this morning by my phone violently playing Shimmy a Go Go.
I didn't know who could be texting me this early on a Saturday morning, but I wasn't happy with them, It had to be only 7am, and I hadn't gotten to sleep until 4.
Aww No way! It was 9am!
I was meeting with Louise in 2 hours!
I wish I wasn't though, maybe I should have just cancelled….
Yeah.
It was probably her, just confirming arrangements.
I flipped open my phone quickly, hoping she wasn't mad at me.
Unidentified Number : New Message.
I was pretty sure I hadn't given my number to anyone new lately, of course, it could be my mom, but I really didn't want to read anything from her….
But what if it wasn't?
Now I was worried, but slightly excited, maybe, just maybe…
I clicked 'Read'
Good Morning Beautiful, I'd like to know, would you like to come to the Adelaide show with me? Come on, don't make me beg now, coz I'm not your regular guy. x Shaun
No! No way! It couldn't be!
Shaun…
Shaun Diviney?
HOLY SHIT!
I covered my eyes.
And then looked again.
No, It HAD to be him, with the quote from the boosh, one of his favourite shows, it had to, it had to!
Please?
As I sat there staring at my phone for what seemed like half an hour, it vibrated in my hand.
Maia? Maia? It's you right? If it's not, then that's seriously not funny, come on, I need to know, I'm reaching out here, and I don't even know you. The flight leaves at 11, we need to be there at 10! Answer me please? x Shaun…Diviney?
He was inside my head!
The flight?
The flight leaves at 11?
Shit! It was already 10 past 9!
I raced through the house, grabbing anything and everything that I would need.
Undies, Socks, t-shirts, cons, lip Balm, brush, straightener, toothbrush, teddy, yep, a teddy, (his name was Mr Ted) and my Ipod/Wallet/Phone.
I chucked everything into my Astro Boy suitcase. Then I stopped still.
I hadn't asked dad.
###########################SHAUN###########################
It was 9:30, and still, she hadn't answered me.
I was moping, and I couldn't help it.
My fingers fiddled with the grooves in the phone case.
She didn't care.
I sighed, and made to move my case.
"Come on Shaun! We've gotta get this crap outta here!" Andy heaved 2 heavy suitcases through into the elevator.
Well now that Andy had said it, I really felt obliged to not move my case.
"Don't want to," I pouted.
My Astro Boy suitcase sat by my side, full to the brim, my phone was clenched in my hand, and my Ipod was in the pocket of my skinny jeans, wedged tight.
Andy was right.
We had to go.
I had to leave her.
"Shaun, we gotta go," Bradie said softly, and nudged me.
I trailed my bag loosely behind me, and then I was in the elevator.
We were at ground level by 9:33 and then outside by 9:35.
Man, I knew how to pick em.
I kicked the rubble of the sidewalk with my trainer, sending up a cloud of dust.
9:36
I tapped the screen of my phone, and thought, hoped, wished.
9:37
We couldn't wait any longer, It took 10 minutes to get to the Airport from here, and, if we left any later, we'd be really pushing it to be there on time.
9:38
Bradie & Andy piled into the car, and I was just about to join them, when suddenly my phone vibrated in my pocket.
#########################MAIA#######################
I raced through the house to my parents room.
They HAD to be up now.
I wondered if they'd let me go, they should, they'd only been going on about my musical career for, like, ever.
"Dad!' I rushed over to him, he was sitting up, with his coffee and paper, as was the usual for a Saturday morning.
"Dad, please, please, please, just listen to me for a second, and don't say anything K?"
He looked up at that.
"Dad, remember how you always go on about me furthering my musical career? Well, I have a HUGE chance."
His eyes widened "What is it?"
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
I hated having to resort to saying that I was going with them to further my musical career, but, It was the only thing that would make Dad even consider it.
I wouldn't have gotten anywhere by confessing my love for Shaun.
But now, here I was, packed, ready to go, with my Dad's bankcard for emergencies, and a ticket to Adelaide.
And it was only 9:35.
I sat for a minute, wondering when Shaun would get here, when I realized.
I hadn't even texted him!
In a flash, my phone was in my hand, and my fingers whizzed across the keypad.
Shaun! Shaun, Im so sorry! I had to ask first, had to convince! I'm so sorry that I ran out on you last night too, and, made you think that this wasn't a real number. It is! Shaun, If your offer's still open, I'd LOVE to come with you! I'm staying with my dad, we're at the Hay Street Apartments. No 312. If your offer's closed, then, sorry for wasting your time. Love loads xxxx Maia
There was no reply.
I sat down glumly on the front step.
I'd missed my chance to be with him.
Love sucked.
###########################SHAUN###########################
The message said it all.
She wanted to be with me!
I turned to Bradie & Andy.
"Guys," the desperation in my voice was evident, even to my ears, "Maia-"
"We know," Bradie sighed, "It was only a matter of time."
"Michael, can you make a quick detour for us?" Andy piped in, looking over my shoulders, "She's at the Hay Street Apartments, you know the ones?"
"Yehhp," the Driver grunted.
With speed even Astro boy would be envious of, we swerved back.
And we were on our way.
#########################MAIA#######################
I piled my bag into the back of the van, noticing an exact replica of it, far on the right hand side.
It must have been Shaun's.
I grinned, then blushed.
Trust Shaun.
But Astro Boy was awesome.
But I knew what was really making me smile.
We had the same taste.
I had almost fit my bag in perfectly when it started to tip.
I stepped back for a second, and then noticed the boys watching me.
Hell yeah, I could do this.
I struggled to push it back into to the boot, and almost had it, when it tipped back even more.
Bollocks.
But I did it, and I pushed it right in.
I heard Andy and Bradie clapping.
Two warm hands covered my own as I fit it right in.
"I'm glad you could come," warm breath tickled my ear.
The smell of lynx deodorant hit me, but not chocolate, so I knew for sure.
Shaun Diviney was behind me.
"I, I," I stuttered, and he chuckled.
"I like your bag," I managed to stutter out.
"Mm," Shaun smiled, " I like yours"
This was good, far too good to be true, Shaun Diviney was standing with his arms around me.
I could have stayed there for a while, but then-
"Come on you two, we gotta GO!" Andy shouted from inside.
"It's always Andy," Shaun muttered.
"Yeah, come onn, it's 9:50, we're gonna be late!" Bradie joined in.
"Bradie," Shaun sighed, and grabbed my hand, "Comeon, let's go."
He pulled me in next to him, and smiled widely.
I blushed again, and the driver closed the back of the van.
There wasn't enough seats, so we were all squished together, Andy was complaining, and, Shaun was grinning, his arm around me.
I didn't even know him! And here I was in a van with him and his 2 best friends!
It didn't seem to matter to him though, as he pulled me up to sit on top of him.
#########################SHAUN#######################
I liked having her sit on me.
No, don't be so gross, it just felt nice, to support someone, to be close to someone, other than my two disgustingly male friends.
I liked the way her hair tickled my neck, the fresh blue smell of her, and the way her legs touched mine.
I pretty much handn't felt this for a while.
It was good, while it lasted.
xXxXxXxXxXxXx
It wasn't long before we were at the airport.
We had to enter through the far away door, because apparently there was an array of SS fans at the others, come to see us off.
As it was, Jumpnow and Maia had to go ahead, and we stayed behind a bit.
Stayed behind to sign things for an array of girls, who now, all seemed dull to me.
I guess everything seems dull when you find someone.
After all that, and some quite frankly, Embarrassing photos, we were off.
We went through the gates easily, no-one noticed us, and that was fine by me.
I didn't need any public interest, or any nosy fangirls hating on Maia.
Going through customs and everything was good, luckily we had been able to get Maia an extra ticket, and she had all the documents, so, she was fine.
We waited a bit, looked at some watches, and perfumes, which, I swear was only for Maia's sake, and, she herself bought a Blunt Magazine.
I heard myself tutting at that.
TV hits was better, they supported us.
The time was long, but I enjoyed it, Andy and Bradie too, versing eachother in tap tap.
Honestly, it was the nicest that waiting for a flight had ever been for me.
The best part though, is that the whole time, she held my hand.
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
We boarded the plane at 10:50, and, in another 15 minutes we were off.
Off to Adelaide, Off to Another concert, Another horde, another fortress for music.
And this time, I had inspiration.
Inspiration in the form of the small girl huddled up asleep beside me on the plane chair.
