Ava's P.O.V

I feel the jolts again. Although this feels familiar, I know this motion....this Oh no this is turbulence! Turbulence why the heck am I feeling turbulence...Oh they better not have! "Bradley!!!" That schmuck. "Ava honey, you need to breathe..its ok we're all here, just deep breaths sweetie, you're alright..shhhh" Emile soothes calming me down. I can hear the beeping subside near me. "I'm going to kill him!" I manage to rasp out. "Here have a drink, thats it" Neha coos. "What is up with you two?" I narrow my eyes and enquire. "Who us? Why would there be anything wrong? Noth...nthing is wrong...why would you" before they can finish I see Tony almost walk into the room only to about turn just before. Now I definately know something is wrong. "Tony?" They both turn and poor Tony looks very flustered. "We're all set to land?" he utters looking between us all. "Land? We're all set to land? You guys put me on a plane? On a freaking plane in my state!" I fume. None of them are looking at me. "Tony, where is he?" I demand. "Who? Grimani?" he questions. "Grimani? What, why would I ask about that a$$?" They all stare at me "umm because he kidnapped you and drugged you and almost married you in that state." They all update me. "Hmmm right... well...ok..I'm obviously not recalling all that." I reply sheepishly. "Yeah you don't say." Tony teasingly remarks.

Before any of us can continue, the pilot announces that we will need to return to our seats and get ready for landing.  The girls help me then get back to their seats. I look out the window to this beautiful view...and maybe I could just forgive all...

There are only the grandparents present when we arrive. Our parents are to arrive shortly and I won't be seeing Brad until tomorrow. Gramps and Nonna leave after checking on me and telling me to rest up for tomorrow. I get some quality time with my siblings and besties. What more could a girl ask for. After a pamper session with the girls. I'm whisked off to bed. I'm so drained I fall asleep in an instant. I wake up to shrieking and thundering footsteps. "We slept in!!!! Faaaaark Brad's going to kill us!" "Avaaaaaa get up...For the love of God... Nehaaa!" Emile is screaming away running around.
"Emile, we love you but you really need to stop screaming like a banshee. Why don't you get ready and I'll take care of Ava." Beatrice soothes. Surprisingly it works and we actually all manage to get ready with the help of the ladies in waiting. We are then all escorted into our stretch limos and taken to the wedding destination.
