chapter twelve.

clay stayed the night at gia's house the past 2 nights, going home occasionally to go give patches food and water,

"we have to leave soon, gia!" the boy yelled from her kitchen, suitcases by the door,

clays parents had offered to take care of both patches and molly, leaving the couple to not worry as much about their pets when leaving for a week,

the girl watched out of her bedroom, backpack on and phone in hand that was filming the floor as she walked,

he laughed, "what are you doing?"

she began filming him, from neck down of course, "i'm filming a vlog!"

he laughed once more, grabbing the two suitcases, "ready to go?"

she nodded her head, before taking one last video of molly, before shutting her phone off and walking out the door.

"we've kinda got a long drive to the airport, so you get aux." the boy said once they got in the car, grabbing her hand as he began to drive,

the drive was only around 30 minutes, but clay was one of those people.

once arriving at the airport and going through everything they needed to before boarding, the couple sat down in a waiting area, almost collapsing into the chairs.

"why did you schedule our flight at 9am?" the girl asked him and he laughed,

"i want to get there at night so we can sleep, then we have a full week." he smiled and she groaned,

"i'm going to go get coffee, you can stay here if you want." she spoke, "don't worry, i know you want hot chocolate."

the boy smiled at her, she knew him so well, pulling out his card before she stopped him, "clay you're crazy if you think i'm going to let you pay after you just paid for our flights, stay here i'm going to go buy you some cocoa."

he laughed as the girl walked away, feeling quite awkward once he realized he was now alone,

he really didn't want to waste his phone battery, so he just sat there, before a kid, around 7, began speaking to him,

"my mom was here a little bit ago, have you seen her?" clay looked around for a moment,

"no i haven't, buddy, do you have any clue where she could've gone? i'll help you find her."

clay stood up and looked around for anybody who looked like someone looking for a kid, he didn't know-

"what's she look like?" he asked the boy and he shrugged, making clay let out a quiet breath, "does she have brown hair?"

the boy shook his head, implying yes, before clay looked around again, grabbing the boys hand to lead him to a women who looked like she was almost in tears,

"you know, you sound like a youtuber i watch." the boy spoke and clay coughed,

"what youtuber?" he asked,

"dream. you probably don't know him though, because you're old."

that made clay laugh loudly, "no i don't know who that is, i guess you're right i'm old, is that your mom?" he asked the boy, pointing at the women and he shook his head, running off to the women,

clay smiled before walking back to where he was originally sitting, finally pulling out his phone to see a text from gia, a picture of her in a bathroom mirror,
