Long Lost

Off to London!

Nicole POV

"Nicole! Are you ready to leave honey?" My mom called.

"Yeah, coming!" I replied, grabbing my suitcases.

When I went downstairs, Paul had already loaded my mom's suitcases into the car. I left mine in the front yard for him to take as well.

I made my way into the kitchen. Melissa had left some fruit, bagels, and cereal out for breakfast today. I groaned at the options and grabbed an apple.

I returned back outside to see everything in the car and ready to go. My mom was waiting in the car. I sat in the seat across from her, as Paul shut my door. As he drove out of the driveway, I noticed my mom's disappointed face expression.

"What's wrong, mom?" I asked curiously.

" I won't be in London the whole time." She sighed.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm only staying for a week, then I have to come back to take care of the business."

My mom owned three hotels and a gas station. That's how we had so much money. That, and also the money my dad gives us. My dad is a businessman as well. He owns two advertising companies.

"But where will I stay?" I asked.

"You can stay in our house in London." She replied in a isn't-that-obvious way.

I raised my eyebrow. "We have a house in London?"

"Yeah, I had it before your dad and I separated. You'll be fine thought, right?"

"Yeah, yeah. Don't worry bout me."

My mom smiled. I looked out the car window as we approached the airport. Paul payed for a temporary ticket and entered the parking lot. After parking, he grabbed our bags as we went inside. Paul checked our bags in and we said our goodbyes. My mom and I went through security. On our way to the boarding gates, we stopped at Starbucks. A couple of minutes later, we boarded the plane.

"Good Afternoon!" The flight attendant greeted us. She took our tickets. "First class is this way."

My mom and I took our seats. She looked over at me and smiled. I returned her smile and took a sip of my coffee.

I wonder what London will be like. As I finished my coffee, the flight attendant came on the speaker.

"Please buckle your seat belts. We are about to take off. Thank you for riding with British Airways, today!"

I settled into my seat and looked out the window. Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.

So, finally leaving for London. One direction will probably be in the next chapter or the one after that.
