This chapter isn't that long, and for that I'm sorry. 'Cause I hate short stories.

And this chapter is not what it sounds like, that is if you're a pervert or a smoker or whatever.

this chapter is when they get loaded on to the plane.

Getting Loaded

After a few days, Lissa finally decided that today we could to go to Alaska to let Christian see his aunt. But she also made twenty other guardians come with us. She didn't want to take the chance that something would go wrong.

As Dimitri and I finished packing, not needing much, we just planned on going there and back after all, we went to help Lissa and Christian with anything they needed. As we got to their room, Lissa and Adrian were talking softly.

"If I was in Christian's spot," Adrian started, "I'd want to do the same thing. Tasha's the closest family he has, she was pretty much his mom."

"I know. And I'd want to do the same thing too," Lissa said. "It's just that it's kind of depressing there and I think it'll upset Christian to see his aunt being treated so badly."

"Yeah," Adrian stated, "But she did murder and then frame it on someone else, and then almost murdered another person. I think Christian will understand."

"Yeah Liss," I said as I sat beside her on her bed. "Christian's a strong person, he'll understand that she got what she was asking for."

"Yeah, but I have to make the date for her execution. How can I do that, setting someone's day to die that I know and liked? And someone that's related to someone I love, and Christian really does love her. I don't know what to do."

"Just talk to him about it, he'll understand," Adrian exclaimed. "He knows that she has to be executed, and he knows that you have to set the date. Just ask him about it. But I've got to go, so talk to you later."

"You don-," I started, but he was already out the door. "He still hates me. I don't know how to make it up to him. He'll never forgive me."

"Just give him time. I did notice that he's starting to spend more time with Jill. Maybe they'll get together. We already know she likes him."

"Yeah I know, all you have to do is look at her when he's around her and you can tell, it's written all over her dang face. If Adrian can't notice that, then he's just plain stupid."

"He probably does, but still has feelings for you, so he just hasn't acted on them yet. But anyways, would you help me get my stuff ready? 'Cause I don't know what to bring."

"Sure," I said, glad to get my mind off of Adrian still hating me and Jill liking him. So as I helped Lissa, Dimitri went to help Christian, knowing that he's probably nervous as hell about see his aunt soon.

After everyone was ready, Lissa, Christian, Eddie, Adrian, Dimitri and me, and twenty other guardians, we met up and headed to the airport, no one saying a word the whole time.

But as we got to the airport, and about to board the plane Christian stuttered, "I.. I know that I wanted to do this, but-"

"Hell no," Lissa barked out, surprising all of us with her cursing. She never cursed. "You're already chickening out, and we're not even on the plane yet? NO. You made me say yes to actually going to see Tasha, so you are going, even if I have to drag your ass on this plane myself. So get your butt on the plane, NOW."

"I'm not chickening out," he stated. "I was just going to say that I don't know what to tell her when I finally see her. That's all."

"Oh!" Lissa whispered, feeling embarrassed to yell at him like a little kid, and having to curse, 'cause she really hates when she does. "Sorry."

"Hey don't worry," I said, grabbing a hold of Christian's shoulders. "It's a long way to Alaska. So by the time we get there, you'll have loads to talk about. We'll help you think of something." Then I pushed him up the stairs as the last of everyone's luggage was loaded.
