I'm not telling
Braden
I went to go check on Chrystal again, but when I got to her seat, she wasn't there. I was sure she made it to her seat after she went to the bathroom. Where could she be? This isn't a very big plane, she has to be somewhere. I searched everywhere, the bathrooms, the kitchen and the storage areas. I stopped and asked a stewardess,and she told me there was another storage room in the back. I quickly thanked her and rushed back there passing many people on the way. As soon as I got in the room I saw her crying on the floor with her shorts beside her. she looked up at me."You never came"
Those words broke my heart to a million pieces. How could I let this happen again? I should have made her sit with me.I should have protected her.I bent down to her level and wiped away all her tears and pulled her into a hug. At first she flinched and pulled away but gradually understood it was me. After she was stable and had her shorts back on I looked into her light hazel brown eyes."Who did this to you." I asked,"I swear to god he is dead." She just stayed silent, horror filling her eyes.
I pulled her up and gently slid my arm around her waist to steady her. We went straight to my seat and I set her into the empty chair next to me.She just stared blankly into the white seat in front of her.I gently pulled her into my lap and made her look at me. A tear began to caress her cheek and I swiped it away with my thumb, brushing her mangled hair behind her ear.
"What can I do to make it better?" I wispered more to myself than to her. She took a deep breath and did something I never expected her to do.
Chrystal
"What can I do to make it better?" he whispered. But there was nothing that could make it better. All I wanted was him. He made everything better with his gentle calloused hands and his soft eyes that hide all the horrific things he has seen.I took a deep breath and did what I had been waiting to do since I met him.
I pushed my lips to his and unexpectantly sparks didn't fly like it says in the movies and books. Nothing was like what they said. Everything was so much better. I might not have felt sparks, but I knew this was right.This was the first time I was sure about anything. How could this not be right? Our lips fit perfectly together and we akwardly moved together. I say akwardly because nothing in life is perfect.Except in this moment.This moment was full of bliss and comfort. I never wanted to leave this moment. It was just a simple kiss, not one full of saliva. We were intterrupted by the entercom informing us that we would land in ten minutes.
We relluctantly pulled away and he accompanied me to gather my stuff.On the way there I saw the blue eyed man smirking at me and he winked. Normally I would cower away,but then I realized, i'm a missing princess and I have to be strong.That and I felt like being sassy because I was in a good mood from moments ago.I turned to Braden and kissed him again,this time with more passion and lust. I eventually forgot what my original goal was and got a little carried away. I wrapped my hands behind his head and pulled him closer.I have never yearned for someone to be closer until now. His hand slipped down my back and gently rested on the part between the small of my back and my butt.
He scoffed and I jumped.Breadon looked at him and then to me. He grabbed my hand and pulled me the rest of the way.The look in his eyes scared me.He knew.
Braden
I heard the guy behind us scoff and Chrystal jumped away.I looked between them and rage knocked on the door along with realization. I grabbed her wrist and pulled her to her seat so we could get her luggage and go back to my seat.I didn't talk the rest of the way.Even after, we got off the plane I only talked when I had to.Once we got to the hotel it was five in the morning, so I carried the sleeping Chrystal from the rental car to our room.When I was sure she was asleep and safe I went to Robbie's room.
"I need you to look at the plane files of all the passengers and find a big dirty blonde guy with light blue eyes.He typed as I described him and within a few seconds he had his file on the screen."Thank you. Now find the best hitman in Norway and text me his number when you find it.I'll be in my room if you need me." I ordered and walked out ignoring the look of shocked curiousness. I went to my room and slipped in next to Chrystal and pulled her to my chest.She didn't argue and I kissed the top of her head."Sleep well my princess." I said before I felt her stiffen and I fell into the blissful abyss they call sleep.
"Mom, I don't want to. It's not nice." I said whispering to my mother.She was trying to teach me to steal with no chance of being caught.We were in a grocery store out of town so there was no chance in being reconized. The plan was. I would go find an adult that worked there and tell them that I can't find my mommy.They would take me back to the control room to spot my mom through all the cameras.I ask for water because I had been crying so much and my mouth was dry. They leave to get some for me and I turn off the power strip that was thankfully left out in the open to make it look more like an accident.Once the cameras were off,i leave the room,bump into the adult and tell them I found her and thank you for the water.
I leave and give my mom the signal by whistling down the ailes. We then met up and I get into the buggy she pushed.Something felt weird and I looked around nervously making sure I didnt miss anything. Mom began to talk to strangers to distract them from me carfully digging into all their personal belongings. One by one my bag filled with things that didn't belong to me. I was reaching in a random lady's purse and I was hanging over the edge and accidentally fell into the lady. She turned and caught me digging through her stuff. She went to scold me but mom attacked her and beat her to the ground.The buggy I was in got pushed down the aile and I was forced to watch from a distance, not being able to do anything. Evenually a guy carrying a gun came along and I jumped out of the buggy, jolting my legs.I ignored the pain and ran to my mother.She kept beating the lady and couldn't stop.The guy pulls out his gun and points at my mother.
"NOOOOOOOO" I said.Everything felt in slow motion. Me running, the man slowly pulling the trigger and the bullet flying through the air into my mothers stomache.I finailly reached her in time to hear here say, "Breadon,I-I I love you. Never forget that. And I hope you find your way to Norway." She breathed the last part with all she had left. I watched the light slowly disapate into nothing and I vowed to become the most wanted criminal in honor of her.
"My eyes jolted up and the sun shone throught the transparent window.Chrystal's hand was softly rested on my chest and she was propt up on one elbow staring at me, full of concern."What's wrong?" I asked. She half giggled,"I should be asking you that.You just screamed no and then you woke up.Are you okay?What was your dream about?" I hesitated to tell her. She knows about my mom, but she doesn't know what she said. I forgot about it until now.What did she mean?I dont know, but now that I'm here I'm going to find out."Braden" I looked back up at Chrystal. "Are you going to tell me or are you going to zone out again?" She questioned."I had a dream about my mom, when she died." I stated.She just nodded her head and pecked my cheek before she got up to go to the bathroom.
It was so unexpected for her to kiss me last night, after everything that had happened I'm surprised she didn't push me away out of fright. But I guess she knows when she is ready for things. "We need to talk about last night." I said once I was up and leaning against the bathroom door frame.Her face pinkened and she looked away to continue brushing her teeth."W-what about last night,I-im sorry if I did anything you didnt want." she stuttered. "No no no no no, you did everything I longed for. I just wanted to know why...after what happened." I replied.
She walked past me and sat on a chair next to a table in the corner and pulled her knees up to her chest, not wanting to answer the question.But I had to know. I needed to know if she was just using me as a distraction. "Why.Why did you kiss me? Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it tons, but I didn't expect you to do it after what had happened."as I rambled her cheeks went from a light pink to red and she averted my gaze."You always make me feel better. I dont know, I just wanted, needed, to be closer to you." she whispered and looked up. I finally got to see those beautiful hazel brown eyes and we were interupted by Robbie busting in."Hey B! I got the number of that hitman and I went ahead and texted him for you and he said he will take the job.He just needs to discuss money with you." he said rather loudly and Chrystals eyes widen.
Chrystal
Rage consumed me when Robbie burst in and said some bull about a hitman.We haven't even been here a day and Breadon already wants someone dead.I stayed silent, and waited for Robbie to leave so I could yell at Breadon.Then again why not do it now? "Are you serious?You've already found someone to kill? Braden,I can't believe you!" I screamed as I got up and stood infront of him. Looking straight into those beautiful green eyes, showing him all my confidence and anger.
He looked down at me with guilt in his eyes.But he wasn't guilty because he was planning to kill some one, he was guilty that he was caught. Which made my anger skyrocket."Braden! Who is it? Who is it that you want dead? Tell me or I will leave right now." He stayed silent and just stared at me with a sorryful look. I turned and walked out the door, Breadon following behind me."Chrystal don't go.Please you're going to get hurt or something.Just please dont go." he begged. I spun on me heal towards him. "What is the point in me staying here when you're just going to get someone who probably did no harm to you, killed and then lie to me about it. I'll see you whenever Breadon." I said calmly and walked the rest of the way down the hall and to the steps that led outside.
Norway is A LOT different from L.A. Everyone smiles and greets you.All the nice people in the markets and the sweet smell of freshly baked bread and pastries.Many people gave me free things as samples I guess.I loved it all. I eventually found out that I was in the town of Oslo, the capitol of Norway.
The people began to heard like a flock of sheep to the town square and started singing and swaying. I turned to the person next to me and polietly asked, "Why are y'all singing?" the lady smiled and explained to me that it is a song of prayer for the missing princess to return. "Thank you." I whispered happily and she looked at me shocked and stared into my eyes, as realization struck her, her smile stretched as far as it could and she hugged me.I put my finger up to my mouth and she nodded.
Quickly turning on my heel, I began to run. Yes, I wanted it to all be wrong, but deep down inside I was happy. Happy that the life I lived was supposed to be something else, something much better. And although I didn't get to live it, it still makes me glad that I actually did have a purpose in this world,and I still have a chance to live what was supposed to be my life.
Once I made it to the hotel, I went straight to our room to look for Breadon.
