Hello again! Thanks readers and reviewers for being so patient for me! I have been so busy lately, cello, softball, end of quarter tests, ELA studying… but that's a horrible reason to give delays. So all in all, I'm sorry. I hope this chapter satisfies you! And also, thanks to my beta Jayfire! You are the best! And Kathryn, thanks for giving this story a shot!

Chapter 5

Briarlight woke up and yawned. Then she sneezed. She had woken up with Cinderheart's blond hair in her face.

"Cinderheart," she said, "did you wake me up?"

"Um, yeah," Cinderheart confessed, "but it was for a good reason! Remember? Lionblaze and Jayfeather are coming to pick us up from my house!"

Briarlight had slept over at Cinderheart's house the day before. And she remembered exactly why she did right at this very moment.

"Oh my gosh!" Briarlight exclaimed. "My hair!" She ran into the bathroom and looked for a hairbrush while Cinderheart laughed, amused, because on a regular school day she was sure Briarlight would never run out of bed just for a hairbrush. Usually, she would lie in bed until the bus came. While Briarlight was in the bathroom, Cinderheart dragged her luggage and Briarlight's luggage to the door. She peeked out of the window and gasped, and screamed so loud it could be heard all over the house, "They're here Briarlight! Please, get out of the bathroom so I can use it!" At that very moment, Briarlight rushes out of the bathroom and Cinderheart sprinted inside like a mouse. Briarlight heaved the baggage outside. Which was hard because she had crutches on.

"Here, I'll help you with that Briarlight," A familiar voice said. It was Jayfeather. He smiled and dragged the bags into the trunk of a car, no, Briarlight thought, a limo! Briarlight slipped into the limo and a few moments later, so did Jayfeather . She saw Lionblaze quietly stride out to greet Cinderheart.

"How could you afford such a thing!" She gasped like a fish out of water.

"Well, my father told Lionblaze and me that the car was outside waiting for us, and there it was, the limo," he shrugged and smiled as he continued, "I'm sure you didn't know how my father was the co-founder of the company Catapaws." Catapaws was a huge company that controlled the tech world. It made the Catphone, and the IPawed. Briarlight pulled out her cell phone, which was the IPawed 4S.

"Here, he made this?" She said as she handed over the phone for Jayfeather to touch.

"Yeah, pretty much," he said, his blind eyes looking at his feet.

Cinderheart and Lionblaze slid in and off they went. That was really awkward, Jayfeather and Briarlight thought.

Jayfeather had never been to this terminal before. Never. It was kind of weird for him, because he was a frequent flier so he has been to every terminal in this airport and he had to touch to find his way around. He was almost sure that if he was normal, he would gawk at himself. But then again, he wasn't normal, and that was what most people would do, gawk at him. As he sat at the terminal, he felt Briarlight's presence. HE felt weird with her around, but not in a weird way.

"Hey, we're boarding now, you're seat 1A and I'm 1B. It's a 5 hour flight, so be prepared."

"Okay," he replied quietly as he stood up from his seat and felt the walls to find the line. Briarlight looked on helplessly. She wanted to help him, because she was his friend. But, she wanted to take their relationship further. She thought there would be a perfect time on this vacation to tell him. She would, just not now. Briarlight shook her head at the helpless Jayfeather and crutched herself to help him.

"Here," Briarlight said. "Let me help you. You look like you need it," she said as she helped him get onto the boarding line. Jayfeather murmured something that sounded like a "Thanks" and walked onto the airplane. Briarlight guided him to his seat, the one next to hers, and slumped down and sighed. It will get better she promised herself.

Cinderheart sat down in her seat, with Lionblaze next to her. She heard Briarlight whispering something to Jayfeather and instantly thought, They so like each other.

Lionblaze felt a head on his shoulder. He looked down and saw Cinderheart. He glanced at her, her blond hair covering his shoulder. It was hour 3 out of 5. He glanced at Jayfeather, and smiled when he saw Jayfeather in a very awkward position, on Briarlight's shoulder. Briarlight turned to see Lionblaze staring at her and smiled. Briarlight looked at Jayfeather, no not the stubborn and moody Jayfeather, the nicer, more kinder Jayfeather.
