You might want to go back a chapter. I replaced a chapter and it didn't work like it usually would if you updated it. I'm not sure what Ella actually looks like but I'm making her blonde. So yeah read on and be super lucky this week/day)

Five:

We all sit in a circle on the floor of Six and John's room the next morning. Malcolm had said two days ago that this is my mission to plan so everyone is looking at me. "Alright, this is how it is going to work. Yesterday I had a lot of fun thinking up everyone's back story and who they're with. So if you have a problem let me know and I'll try to fix it." I start. "First we have our two pairs. Marina and Eight." Eight does a stupid little fist pump and Marina rolls her eyes at him. "You guys look similar so I was thinking of putting you as cousins but then again you two can't keep your hands off each other so I went with something more creative. You two have been dating for three years and you are taking a trip around the world. Next pair is John and Six. I was thinking Six could wash out her hair die and go back to black (A/N: See what I did there?). So Six is going to pretend to be Australian and say she is bringing back her American – American being the key word – boyfriend to meet the family. You two can work on the details later." Four gives Six a big goofy smile and I wink at her. "Then we have our threes. Sam, Malcolm and Adam are going to pretend to be these extremely rich people and are flying first class." "You're taking them to live with their grandmother in Melbourne for the holidays." I say directly at Malcolm and in return he nods. "Then Nine, Ella and I are going to go together. I would have put Ella with Marina but you look nothing alike so we can't play the family roll and you can't make up many good stories with that."

"What about Sarah?" Ella asks.

"Pardon?" I say. Oh god I forgot Sarah – woops. (Not that I actually care)

"What about Sarah. She isn't in there." Ella says.

"Uh… sorry. Do you have a preference of people you want to be with?" I ask.

"What if I just go by myself. Pretend I went to college in America and I live in Australia so I'm going home for Christmas. I'll sit a few rows away from someone in the room." She says. "Alright lets go with that. Everybody, be ready to leave in 30 minutes." I say standing up and walking out of the room.

"You didn't forget her, Five did you?" Nine says once we're in the room with a closed door. "No. I just couldn't get a pairing for her. Six would shoot me if I put her with john. I'd shoot myself if she came with me. Malcolm's group already had three and Marina doesn't like her although she would never say it out loud because she's too nice." I say sitting on the bed, guilt finally setting in. To my surprise he laughed. "You know why I'm glad I'm not a girl?" He asks. "No." "Because if I was a girl I'd have to be a part of all this cat-fighting." He tells me.

"Hey! If she wasn't a weakling and human I would just break her nose, but she is so what am I supposed to do?"

"ignore her."

"Nah she deserves hell. You don't know the half of what that witch has done."

Nine hours later… (outside of San Francisco Airport)

"Right. Let's get going." Malcolm says handing out all of the boarding passes. "Ella can you change now?" I ask. "Yep." Is all she says before my eyes are suddenly looking at a little three year old blonde child. I pick her up and hand her a teddy bear we brought for the trip. Nine and I are going to pretend that he and I are Ella's parents and our names are Aaron (Nine) and Ally (Myself). Ella is going to pretend to be Ava. Six and Four are Bailey (Four) and Caitlyn (Six). Eight and Marina are going to be Dexter (Eight) and Emma (Marina). Adam, Malcolm and Sam are going to be Emmett (Adam), Miles (Malcolm) and Gabriel (Sam) or Gabe for short. Sarah shall be Ivy Blue.

We get on the plane with no problems. On the left side of the plane there are rows of three seats – same on the right – in the middle there five seats. So all in all there are eleven seats in a row. I don't know how many rows but let's just say that we have to keep a sharp eye out for anyone or anything suspicious. Lucky for Nine and I Ella/Ava counts as an accompanied (A/N: I fly a lot so I know most of this stuff) child so she gets her own seat meaning nobody can sit next to us. Nine sits in the isle and 'Ava' sits at the window leaving me with the middle. Telepathically 'Ava' says to me 'you're welcome.' And I nod and smile at her. Nine 'casually' drabs his arms around my shoulder. I lean up and whisper in his ear "That was extremely inconspicuous." He seems to not be paying attention to me, but glaring at someone who looks about twenty or so who I had noticed was staring before but now is trying so hard to avoid Nine's gaze. "Oh leave the poor idiot alone." I complain quietly in his ear. He keeps glaring. I huff and sit back in my chair and take his arm of my shoulder roughly. "Hey, come on. Don't be like that." He says putting his arm back around my shoulder and leaning down kissing my cheek. "After all I do have to work extremely hard to keep you all to myself." I turn around and glare at him. "You're nothing but a jealous idiot, Aaron, don't think you're doing me any favours." I spit. "Alright I deserve that one Al, but I am sorry and I'll even do you a real favour…" I wait for something but I'm not sure what "I'll admit I'm a jealous idiot." He says and I burst out laughing. He hugs me and I hug him back. An elderly couple sit in front of us and the lady turns around and looks at 'Ava'. "She's so adorable. Is she yours?" She says friendly. "Um, yeah. This is Ava. Ava say 'hello'." Ella/Ava does as she is told and the old lady introduces herself a Greta. "I'm Ally and this is Aaron, Ava's dad." I says shaking her hand and pointing to Nine when the time calls for it. "A family full of 'A's'. This is my husband Lloyd. We're going to Australia to visit my sister and her family. What about you guys?" This lady is so friendly, I'm not sure whether it's a good thing or a bad one. "We're going to Australia to visit my parents." 'Aaron' says. "Oh how lovely. I'm sure they must love that. Where do they live?" Without missing a beat I answer "Just a few hours out of Sydney, so we will be driving after this." "Oh how horrible. We hate driving, don't we Lloyd?" "Yes, Greta we do. Now leave this poor young couple alone. I'm sure they don't want to be talking to some old bag of bones like you for the next fourteen hours." The man's thick American accent says playfully to the old lady and she slaps his head lightly and shakes her head making her grey bob fly everywhere. Then the plane takes off

Within the hour Ella has fallen asleep on her chair with a pillow and blanket we brought for her. She looks so adorable with her blonde hair covering her face and a pink and purple dummy/pacifier in her mouth. I lean on Nine's shoulder and he is resting his head on mine. "Sit up for a second beautiful." He says to me. I don't move just to spite him. "Ally, don't be stupid. You know I'm talking to you." "Oops sorry." I say and sit up. He puts the arm rest up then raps his arm around my shoulder and pulls me in close and we fall into the same position we were in minutes ago. Fifteen minutes later the old man sitting in front of us turns around and faces Nine. "You're a lucky man Aaron. Two beautiful girls at a very young age. How old are you all at the moment now anyway?" Lloyds says friendly but serious at the same time. "I'm twenty in two months, Ally is Almost nineteen and Ava turned three four weeks ago." I'm not even eighteen yet but he can't tell him everything. "So you were Sixteen and Seventeen when Ava was born?" He asks. "Around the ages, yes." Nine says. I shift slightly suddenly uncomfortable. Nine runs his hand up and down my bare arm. "Like I said Aaron – you're a very lucky man to have to beautiful girls like these at your age." He says. "Yeah, one of the luckiest." Nine says and Lloyd turns back around. I open my left eye slightly and see that Greta is asleep on Lloyds shoulder. I seceratly wish that if Nine and I both live through this we will be like that when we're old, wrinkled and grey.
