The Strings Attached

Part 8

------------

She slowly drew more and more attached to him. Even though she only saw him once after what happened.
There's some explaining to do.

"Where are we going?" Tom groaned as we walked towards the gate at the airport.

Harrison and I quickly exchange glances and I smile. "Jon needs you somewhere for filming. You and Robert have to do a few scenes and he can't leave." I say and bite my lip.

"Uh hu. Okay." Tom rolls his eyes and continued to shuffle his feet.

To make sure Tom didn't find out, we told the security ahead of time and they didn't really care. And they were actually pretty nice and told the people at the gate too.

"I'm going to grab a tea. You want anything guys?" Harrison says and points to a mini coffee place.

"I'm fine." Tom says and leans against something.

"I'll have a coffee. Two cream one sugar." I say and smile at Harrison. He smiles back and gets in line.

I stand next to Tom and go through my phone when he starts to laugh.

"What?" I say and look over at him.

"What's going on between you and Harrison?" Tom asks, looking right at me and raising one eyebrow.

My eyes do a quick widening and I take a small but sharp breath of air in. "Nothing, why?" I say like its no big deal.

Tom shrugs his shoulders and blinks for a second longer the usual. "I don't know. It just seems like theres somethings between you two sometimes."

I put my phone in my back pocket of my jeans and cross my arms. "Oh. You and your over protective brother ways." I chuckle. "You know I'm older, right?"

"By 10 minutes!" Tom says and raises his arms.

"I'm still older." I mock him back and stick out my tung.

Tom scrunches up his face and sticks his tung out at me back. It's like we're five again arguing in the middle of an airport.

"One coffee for you, and a cup of nothing for you." Harrison says and hand me my coffee.

"I said I was fine." Tom says and looks at the water bottle Harrison has.

"Don't worry Tom, it's only water. It won't kill you." Harrison sighs and takes a sip of his tea.

We make our way to the gate and sit down at some seats. I lean my head back and sigh. This, will be a long flight.

"I can't believe you did that!" She screamed at him.
"It was a mistake!" He says, with tears.
But if you want the full story, you have to go back even farther.

I close my laptop and sigh, looking at the seat in front of me. We've been in the air for about three hours and I was already bored out of my mind. I was sitting in the middle on this flight, between Tom and Harrison. Tom was asleep at the window seat, head leaned against it. And I think Harrison was dozing off next to me.
