Chapter three
Naomi's POV
34 minutes.
That's how long I have slept.
I have lay staring at my ceiling all night with an uneasy feeling in my stomach.
I hear my mum get up and her bedroom door open. Her footsteps are creeping across the hall they come to a halt outside my door.
She knocks the door. "Naomi honey, its time to get up" she says softly
"Yeah mum I'm up. Didn't get much sleep actually" I my voice sounding Froggy
"You excited for your trip" she comes and sits on my bed
"Yeah" I lied
"Well sweet pea, come on then chop chop" she said bouncing up from the bed clapping her hands.
She reached my bedroom
"Oh and Naomi!"
I hum in response.
"Don't worry to much, just give it time, everything will be fine you'll see." She smiled one last time and walked out of my room.
Am I that easy to read or do I talk in my sleep.
Pushing everything to the back of my head I crawl of bed and get ready.
I have to dress comfortable for the long flight ahead. I decided to put on black skinnys and my new t-shirt with the band 'the 1975' on it and I finished my outfit of with black converse and a light greyish denim jacket.
I looked in my mirror; happy with the way I look. I kept my make up to a minimum and left my hair curly.
The drive to school was silent. I was too wrecked to speak. After all it is 6:47am and I think my mum will break down in tears at the thought of me leaving for 4 nights.
We pull up outside the school and I am suddenly pulled into a crushing hug.
"be safe honey, try things out ok. Always listen to your gut. I love you sweet pea now get out before I don't let you go" she smiled down at me
"I love you mum" I said opening the door of the car
I stepped out into the cold morning and I scan around, everyone seems to be here. Our eyes meet but out for a brief second before I am lifted into another crushing hug.
"Jeeez, hugs all round today eh?"
"NAOMI, ha! I didn't think you would come!." Cook beamed
" Yeah well, couldn't leave you hanging now could I" I smirk
"Right everyone on the bus lets go" Mrs smith shouts
When the register was taken I tried to rest my eyes as much as I could before we arrived at the airport. It shouldn't be safe to sleep on a plane. Actually I would prefer if we travelled by boat at least I could swim if the boat sunk.
I hate airports. Checking in. waiting around. More waiting around. Everyone laughing at their passport photos and the giggling and excitement of some people is sicking.
Cook and I decided to drift away from the class and find a café. Not that it was hard. Cook decided on a small café near our boarding gate o we didn't have to walk too far.
It is now 8:20am and we haven't even left the airport yet, the good thing is our flight has just been called for boarding.
Cook and I leave the café and walk over to the rest of the class.
I show my passport and boarding pass to the security man and board the plane.
I look at the seat number on my boarding pass 2J (SEAT 2 SECTION J). great I'm I right at the back. On my left hand side the rows of seats are in twos and on my right the rows are in three's. I am thankful to be seated in the row with only two seats and that I didn't get stuck in-between the next Buda and sleepy the dwarf. I am praying to be seated by my self so I can at least put my feet up.
I pass through first class and into the economy section. The sections starts of with the letter 'f' as I make my way up the plane cook sits down near the front beside some girl our age. Well at least that's him happy. I pass section 'h' I look down and see Effy, Katie and Pandora all got seats together. Katie scowls at me and I roll my eyes at her.
I reach my aisle. The seats numbers go from left to right. Just my luck and I am sitting beside someone because his or her bags are on the seat next to mine. I put my shoulder bag in the cabin above me taking out my Ipad and my earphones. I look across to my left to the other three seats in my section. An old couple and a young man filled those seats. I gave them a small smile; I plug in my ears phones and attempt to calm my nerves.
"You know you shouldn't really have that on yet you know" the girl states
"Oh sorry" I say taking out my earphones and turning my ipad off.
I look up to see who spoke to me, the sight made my throat go dry.
"It looks worst than it feels." she says pointing to her face.
Her face is bruised with dark purple and yellow marks all up the outside of her nose and under her left eye.
"Im sorry" I look down at my hands guilt washing over me.
"Hey" she says getting my attention "its fine, it really does look worst than it feels and besides I deserved it. I deserve a lot more." she shrugged her shoulders.
I throw her a small smile.
"If everyone could please take there seats, the flight will be taken of shortly. We will be arriving in USA. North Carolina at 16:50pm. Skies are clear so it should be a comfortable flight." The airhostess voice rang through the plane.
I look back up at Emily. "Shouldn't you be sitting down" I smirk
She points to the seat beside me "yeah, I can't get to my seat" she blushes.
"Oh" I stand up
She squeezes passed me brushing our fronts together and I freeze my breath hitches in my throat, my skin is suddenly on fire and I cant breath right. Emily has frozen to; she is just staring at me. I clear my throat to break the tension. A small "sorry" comes out of Emily's mouth before she takes her seat.
As Emily flicks through the flight magazine, my feel my self beginning to freak out as the plane moves to take off. The knuckles of my hands have gone white as I am squeezing the life out of the armrests. My eyes are shut tight and I am forcing my self to breath. I am beginning to feel light headed.
"Naomi" she rests her hand on my leg "Naoms, look at me" she says forcefully.
I open my eyes and meet her gaze.
She chuckles and I scowl at her
"what" I say thinking she is going to take the piss out of me for getting on like a twat.
"here, drink this" she hands me a bottle of water. "take these" she put two pills in my hand. I raise my eyebrows.
"God did I just get déjà vu" I smirk down at her. "We haven't taken pills together since.." I think back to the last time Emily handed me a drug. Oh. Shit.
I look over at Emily her head is down and she is playing with her fingers awkwardly.
I clear my throat and knock the pills back taking a drink of my water.
" What were they anyways" I ask
Emily eyes locks with mine and she smiles.
"Oh, just calming tablets, I took two before we boarded, bloody things haven't kicked in yet, my heart is going mad" she smiles
"Same" I say in a soft voice. Our eyes lock for a little longer than normal, then something outside catches my gaze and I realise we have took of and all.
" Well I don't know what you did but that's been the easiest take off I have ever experienced, I normally near piss my self" I laugh
"Ha!, I thought you were about to before I gave you the water" Emily snorts
God I haven't heard that laugh in ages. I missed it.
The seatbelt sign must have went off recently because we are broken out of our bubble by the most annoying fucking sound.
"Are you ok Emily?" Katie said "do you want me to see if you can be moved seats away from…'It'" looking down on me with a smug smile.
I pull my eyebrows together. "Piss of Katie"
"Katie just leave it yeah? I am fine where I am" Emily replies
"Alright. but if that lezzer touches you, you come find me ok"
I roll my eyes at her and shake my head.
"You never know Katie" I sing, "she might enjoy it to much" I wink
"Em! Seriously lets find you another seat" Katie says disgusted.
"Katie seriously" Emily turns her head to look at me "I am fine" she says in 'I'll deal with you later tone' "I will come find you if I need you now go sit back down" turning her gaze attention back to Katie.
Katie sends me the ' if you lay a finger on her I will cut you in two' glare.
I send her back a fake smile. She turned around and walked back to her seat.
Emily sighed. "Did you have to wined her up"
I turn to face her shocked at what she said.
"Did you have to lie and ruin my life?"
Guilt covers Emily's eyes in an instant. She looks down again no longer able to hold my gaze.
"Sorry" she whispers
"Yeah well sorry doesn't help the fact that I cried my self to sleep for a whole year after it, that I was scared to leave my fucking house." I snapped
Emily sniffs.
I sighed "look Em" I reach out for her hand, as soon as my skin connects with hers I am hit with an electric shock "ah" I pull my hand back. Emily just rubs her hand. "Emily… no look I'm sorry, I shouldn't of snapped, I'm also sorry that I bruised your beaut…" I stop my self from saying the rest, Emily's head shoots up and her eyes meet my gaze.
"What" she is just as shocked as I am.
"Face" I force out "face. I am sorry I hit your face" I stutter.
"That's not what you said" she states
"Yes it is." I fold my arms
"No. You were about to say that you hit my beautiful face." She smirks
"Ah no I wasn't, I think I know what I was going to say Emily Louise Fitch" I blush
"Ok what ever you say" she sang
"Look I am trying to apologise here, I'm not the one that should be apologising after just two accidents. After you and your sister has put me through hell."
"I know"
Well thank fuck for that at least she fucking knows!
"So what were you listening to" she points down at my ipad.
"The 1975" I smiled at her attempt to lighten the mood "have you heard of them?"
She nods her head. "Yeah, quite the diehard I see." She said moving her line of sight to my chest.
"Well do you like what you see?" I smirk
"Yeah. I like them a lot" she said fighting a smile.
I have a funny feeling she isn't talking about the band. I push the thought to the back of my head remembering Emily is (A) a closet victim and (B) her sister has made my life hell and not once has she been there for me.
I turn on my ipad and hand her an earphone, and pressed play.
Emily starts to bob her head up and down "what's this song called"
"Sex" I say simply
She blushes "it's awesome"
I put my ipad on shuffle, Emily drifted off to sleep before me. I was about to drift off when Emily moved and laid her head upon my shoulder. I felt her breath against my neck, my skin was suddenly on fire again but it was comforting in a way. I calmed my breathing and began to drift again. I looked down at Emily and smiled. God what am I doing! Stop it Naomi.
I rest my head against my seat and drift off. It's going to be a long 5 days.
