Billion Dollar Deal

Warning

"I was told I would be sitting by myself, so I'm guessing you shouldn't be here." He frowned pointing to the other big seat next to me.

"Actually...I got an emergency ticket to get back to America, because my mum is ill." I replied not smiling any more because of his in my face attitude.

"Oh...fine." He smiled again then slumped down next to me.

Ten minuets later he looked like he was about to fall asleep so just to annoy him I started talking.

"Tired are you?" I asked, holding back my laugh when he nearly jumped out his seat.

"Yes!" He snapped.

"Where are you off to." I ignored his angry tone.

"America as well, I'm helping an old friend with a contract." He replied sitting up roughly.

"Oh, what kind?" I asked, now I must admit I am a nosey girl.

"He wants me to legalise a marriage contract, his father and brother went against it.." He replied then when he finished he panicked. "I shouldn't have told you that, I mean I don't even know you!" He said quickly.

"Don't worry-" then I realised what he had said. -"...legalise a marriage contract, his father and brother went against"-

Suddenly the flight attendant came round telling everyone to buckle up, as we were about to lift off.

"What's wrong?" He asked seeing my very worried face.

"What's your name?" I asked like a robot.

"Joseph why?" He frowned confused.

"Would this old friend happen to be someone called Zack Carllton?" I asked afraid for the answer.

"Umm, yes..." He told me raising an eyebrow. "You know him?" He added.

"Kinda, not in a good way though." I replied my face twisting in worry.

"Oh, well what's your name?" He asked.

"Lucy, I'm not telling you my second name, it's not important Zack will know me just from that name..." I gulped.

"Am I doing something which is going to hurt you? Or anyone around you?" He frowned.

"My best friends, what your going to do will break their hearts..." I told him.

"I won't do it then." He said simply.

"Zack will kill you." I gasped.

"I don't care, I didn't think I was going to hurt or ruin someone's life..." He told me.

"Thank you Joseph, so much." I smiled gratefully.

"I will just go back home when we land." He shrugged. "So who are your friends?" He added.

"Heath, and Eve." I replied as the plane started moving along the ground for take off.

"Oh, Zack's brother and his wife." He remembered.

"Yeah..." I agreed.

"Where are they?" He asked curiously.

"...I don't think I should tell you that...you might tell Zack." I stuttered.

"Oh Lucy I wouldn't do that, trust me!" He exclaimed.

"Fine...I'm not telling you exactly but somewhere in France." I told him.

"You just came from them?" He stated.

"Yea I needed to leave when my father texted me saying my mum was ill..." I explained as the plane lifted into the air. "Have you got any sweets?" I asked my ears blocking.
