cody parked in a parking lot in the center of all the commotion. it was about a 5 minute walk from the restaurant. the four got out of the car and began to walk to the restaurant. there was still some daylight out, but the sun would be setting soon.
when they arrived, there was a long line of people waiting outside.
"you're kidding" vanessa stared at the lengthy line of people coming from the door.
"don't worry, i made a reservation," cody smiled.
"oh, great!" the four went inside and approached the host at the podium.
"reservation for jonathan noonan"
"right this way," he guided them to their table. they sat down cody and vanessa on one side, mookie and trea on the other.
"not everyone watches baseball y'know," vanessa was referring to cody's alias.
"cant risk it, the media loves to distort everything we do." cody replied.
"we stopped 5 times on the way here to talk to fans, i think they know we're here." she snarked.
"i hate you" cody rolled his eyes.
"awe i hate you more" she smiled. the four stared at the menu for a while. each with their own face of confusion. "i'm glad all of us are on the same page that this menu is way too big." vanessa added.
"there's way too many things on here," said mookie.
"i think i know what i want"
"really? shocking," cody questioned. the girl made a face at him.
the waiter came back over and the group ordered their food. as they waited for their food, they made some small talk.
"have you guys ever played the penny game?" asked vanessa the boys looked confused.
"what's the penny game?" trea questioned. vanessa went in her bag and pulled out a few pennies
"put your middle and ring finger down and place your pointer and pinky flat off the side of the table, like this." she showed them and they followed. " now, stay like that." she placed three pennies on the table in an upside down triangle facing her. she pulled back the penny at the top of the triangle and slid it forward to crash info the other 2. they shot out in two separate directions.
"now, to move to the goal, you have to slide the penny through the other to pennys." she slid the one closest to her in between the other two. she continued on this pattern and took a shot at the goal, and made it in. "now you try." vanessa placed her hands over the coins and slid them over to the boy across from her.
he played her little game and took a shot at the goal. he missed. they all laughed at him.
"how did you miss that bro." cody said in between laughs.
"just shut the fuck up ok." trea mumbled.
a few minutes later, their food arrived at the table.
"thank you," vanessa said to the waiter. she looked at her table. "what the fuck, none of you guys have manners??"
"enh, we'll tip extra," cody shrugged.
everyone started eating their meals as they were ravenously hungry, except for mookie. he just stared at his dish.
"what's wrong?" asked trea looking at mookie.
"they gave me a spoon for my pasta" he frowned.
"you can eat it with a spoon you know?"
"How?"
trea showed him the proper way to eat pasta by wrapping it up with the fork he used from before, and using the spoon to hold it together. mookie copied trea's actions and was stunned of how that works. the others laughed at him and watched mookie eat is pasta, in utter shock.

it was about 10 pm and the group was getting pretty tired. they had walked all over creation. on their travels, they had met a couple fans along the way. the three boys had been pretty much shot, while vanessa was on her second coffee of the night.
"you shouldn't be drinking that so late," said trea
"i'm pulling an all nighter so i can sleep on the plane tomorrow."
"why would you wanna sleep on the plane, we fly during the day" mookie added
"i get anxious on planes," vanessa replied. trea laughed at her. "what? im not a fan of planes"
"then why would you apply for this job" he laughed
"because i need the money, duh. you guys wouldn't know,"

the boys dropped her back off at home.
"thanks guys, i had a great time tonight,"
"see ya tomorrow"
"bright and early 9 am!"
"peace ness,"
she smiled and waved goodbye. vanessa immediately crashed on her bed. those damn coffees didn't work. against her will, she fell immediately asleep. those boys really broke her.
the next morning was rough. vanessa woke up around 6:30, just enough time for her to get ready and go. she hopped in the shower, then threw on her favorite pink sweatsuit. vanessa threw a couple of essentials in her bag such as mascara, her laptop, pepper spray, a bag of m&m's, and her blow dryer, the works. she loaded her luggage into her car before going back to lock up her house for the week. she blonde left her house, making it to the airport for about 7:45.
there she met gavin and justin, who were just arriving as well. she pulled up next to gavin's car, as he was pulling out his suitcase, and justin watching him struggle.
"hello ladies," she said to the boys.
"morning, nessy" replied justin.
"gav, why didn't you just put your suitcase in your trunk and not your backseat?" she laughed at the fool.
"i thought it would fit." gavin sighed.
"i told him not too, but he doesn't listen to me." justin muttered.
"why don't you two shut up and help me?" the two decided to actually help him and successfully removed the suitcase from its tight grip.
getting through security was a breeze, and the three finally met up with the other members of the team. after about another 30 minutes, they were able to board the plane. vanessa and trea sat down together towards the back of the plane.
"can you take the window seat," vanessa asked.
"yeah if you want." trea complied. she nodded and they switched their seating arrangement.
mookie and cody went to sit behind them, but vanessa stopped the boys.
"absolutely not, im not getting my seat kicked by you dumbasses every 3 minutes. just sit in the seats across." they obeyed her, only because they didn't feel like dealing with the beast they would've unleashed.
"tired from that crazy all nighter you had?" trea asked the girl.
"i slept like a baby."
"so what are you gonna do?" vanessa shrugged at the question.
"guess your gonna have to deal with me."
soon enough, it was time for lift off.
"i hate this part." vanessa said anxiously.
"do you want to hold my hand?" he replied sarcastically. she gave him one of those looks as if to say 'you would really do that?' . trea sighed and put his left hand out for her to hold. she intertwined her fingers and dragged his hand closer to her. she slouched back in her seat and squeezed his hand as she felt the plane incline. "we're up," trea said looking at the nervous girl. "you're okay, i promise." she sat up
"i'm ok." she repeated to herself.
once the plane leveled out completely, she felt a bit more comfortable.
"so what's your deal with planes anyway?" trea asked.
vanessa looked around to make sure no one else was listening, most of the other boys had headphones in or were sleeping already.
"when i was young, my mom did a lot of work away from home. we moved to la so she could be closer to her work. though she still had to travel across the country, just about all the time. she would come home for holidays, and our birthdays, sometimes even just for a few days just because she could. one year, it was about a month before my birthday, and she had promised to be back in time for a special surprise. i went to school that day and was dismissed early alongside my brother. we were told that someone had hijacked our mothers plane and that she wouldn't be coming home. we don't know if she's dead or alive for sure, but all we knew was that our luck wasn't good enough to see her again."
trea was silent, instead of a reply, he took the girl in his arms.
"i feel terrible. that is incredibly unfair. if you ever need to talk about anything at all, EVER, im here, always." she nodded in his chest. and ever since that day, trea became more protective over her than anyone else he'd known.
"sorry you had to hear my sob story," she sat back up.
"don't you dare apologize." he replied.
"and, don't tell anyone i told you that. i don't want anyone to think of me differently."
"of course, and for the record, no one would change their opinion of you, you're still kickass no matter what."
"i know." he let out a little laugh. "wanna watch a movie?" she changed the subject.
"whatcha got?" trea asked.
the two ended up watching a spiderman movie, to which trea had fell asleep on vanessa's shoulder.
the plane landed and vanessa couldn't feel more relieved.
"trea," she shook him slightly. "we're here"
he sat up and looked around for a second "how long was i out?"
"solid hour,"
once everyone was able to exit the plane, the team was escorted to their hotel.
"didn't know we got the luxury package." vanessa said.
"only when we come to the bronx, they butter us up so they can try and beat our asses." gavin said.
"it always fails," added cody.
reaching the hotel lobby, the boys have their bags to the baggage porters. dave headed up to the front desk to check in his team.
"the whole top floor." she said handing him a stack of hotel key cards, each corresponding with a room number.
the top floor contained two suites, loads of basic bedrooms, a pool, a restaurant, and a gym. perfect for a load of baseball players.
roberts walked over to vanessa and headed her the key to the second suite. "this key's for the suite, don't let the boys know you have it, got it?" vanessa nodded with a smile and slipped it into her pocket, she continued helping the boys sort out their bags as roberts handed out the rest of the keys to his team.
