I couldn't help but smile at Drew's excitement, he's so adorable. Today, we were going to Canada. Jason booked it up last week, and the only flight we could get on was this one, so we're going earlier than expected and coming back later. Turns out we'll be spending Christmas over there, so Jason rented out a cabin. Every year, Ryan, Chaz, Christian and Jaden come over for Christmas, so Jason decided to invite all of them.
"I've never been on a plane before!" Drew burst, smiling huge.
"This is your first time?" Jake asked, as Drew nodded in response. Jake was a year older than Drew, but they were like best friends. "They're awesome, you can get food and everything on them." He told, as Drew's eyes grew wide.
"Really?!" He asked, excitedly, constantly exchanging glances between Jake, and me and Jason.
"Yeah! It's so cool. People come around offering you sweets." I giggled slightly at their cuteness.
"Flight 036 to Toronto, Canada is now beginning boarding at gate 9." A voice said over the intercom, as Drew stared at me and Jason. Each time anyone said something over it, Drew would eagerly look between us, hoping that it was time to get on the plane. With a smile, Jason nodded and stood up, and you could almost see the excitement build up in Drew's eyes.
"Time to go son." Jason said, stretching out a little. With a cheer of joy, Drew stood up and ran over to me and Jason, where he grabbed Jason's hand and I carried Alyssa. She's still young, so I hope she's ok on the flight, I've been on a few and there is always one screaming child who doesn't stop for the whole duration of the flight, I just hope it isn't Alyssa on this one.
Drew and Jake were running with Jason to get to the gate, as the rest of us followed behind, laughing. "I'm surprised Monica and Jade aren't running with them." Hannah, Jaden's wife said, her Australian accent strong.
"They seem so cool about all of this." I replied, turning to find Monica hanging onto Jaden's neck and Jade walking beside them. "Drew hasn't stopped talking about it for the past week!" I exclaimed, as she laughed.
"When we come to yours for christmas, they're always trying to pack their own stuff weeks before we leave, but this time they just don't seem to be excited." She exhaled, looking down.
"I have no idea." I replied, "but lets all try to have a good Christmas?"
"You're right. So how are you and Jason?" She asked, wiggling her eyebrows at me.
"We're good." I laughed, "all good."
"Are you guys thinking about having anymore kids?" She asked.
"I'm not sure. Alyssa is still young. There's a possibility, but it won't be any time soon." I replied, shrugging.
"Yeah, I mean they're both really well behaved." She complimented.
"Drew was never really bad behaved, he's always been good. We still have to wait a while with this one though." I said, laughing at Alyssa as I carried her on my hip. "She's good so far though. Her and Drew get along so well, he loves her to pieces."
"He's such a loving kid, Jade and Monica are always fighting. I know they say sisters can be worse, but one of them is always making the other cry, it was so much worse when they were babies." She groaned. "Monica would pull Jade's hair, so then Jade would hit her and they would both end up screaming."
"Oh dear." I laughed.
"They just taunt each other and never stop." She continued.
"Like you said, people say two girls or two boys can be worse." She nodded agreeing.
"Definitely the case with them." She laughed. When we reached the gate, I pulled open my bag to get our passports out. I handed them to Jason who then passed them over to the gate guard. As I looked over the guard's shoulder, I noticed someone sitting alone in an empty corner of the room. He wasn't looking my way, but there was something about the tattoo climbing from his shoulder to his neck that I recognized, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. He turned his head round quickly, locking eyes with me. The left side of his mouth seemed to curl up slightly, as small smirk forming on his lips. Shaking my head, I turned away and began walking towards the plane. Curiosity got the better of me, and I looked back through the glass, finding that he was now at the window, making a phone call and watching me and Jason walking onto the plane. I tried my best to ignore him, but his staring was making me wonder who he was. Does he know me? Why do I recognize his tattoo?
As I was about to step on the plane, I took one final glance, and he was gone. I handed the lady our boarding cards, as she directed us to our seats.

"Jason do you want a drink." I asked him, noticing that they were offering refreshments.
"I'm good thank you."
"Drew, orange juice?" I asked, as he nodded, not taking his eyes off the game he was playing on his iPad. I got the drinks and paid, handing Drew his and opening Alyssa's fruit juice. I looked back up, finding the same guy walking to the back of the plane. He looked at me, winking, as I turned away. Who is he? Jason was too busy staring out the window with his headphones in to even notice. I best not say anything, he'll probably cause a fight.
Who is that guy?
