His Mafia And His Girl

In His Arms

AMAYA'S POV

The days went by rather quickly, I went on with my life, going to school, coming home, visiting dad, eating and sleeping.

As boring as it seems, I actually had some fun, with being all alone and having some peace. Naomi came over a bunch as well, we stayed up all night gossiping about all sorts of people during the weekend.

But, except of my dying dad, something else was occupying my mind. And I hate to admit that... it was Chase, I thought about him constantly. It was like he had built a tiny home inside my brain and came to visit my thoughts everyday.

Whenever Naomi asked me about boys, I thought of him, or whenever I saw a couple at school I thought of him, and I hated myself for it.

I keep thinking : Stop thinking about him, he's not good for you, snap out of it Amaya, get a life Amaya. But no matter what I did, his face always popped up in my thoughts.

But on the bright side, today is a new day, and me, Mackenzie and Skye will go out of town, all the way to California to stay at a luxury hotel. It is quite expensive, but we have all been saving money for this trip.

Skye's little sister, Kyra, is also coming with us, which is fine by me, cause she's quite cool anyway, and not as stubborn as Skye.

Right now I'm just checking my bags, making sure I haven't forgotten anything, while waiting for Mackenzie to pick me up; then we'll pick up Skye and Kyra; and then we'll head to the airport.

Me and the girls were all gathered in a little Starbucks in the airport, while waiting for our plane. We still had about thirty minutes, so we decided to go for a coffee. We were talking about all sorts of stuff.

"Girls, we should get going to our gate, we're boarding soon." Kyra spoke; she may be the youngest, but she is probably the most mature and organised person out of all of us.

"Seriously? Okay well let's go." Mackenzie said. She got up and we followed.

By the time we got there, we were already about to board our flight. Unfortunately, we all had completely different seats, so we couldn't sit next to each other. I just hope that the person sitting next to me wouldn't be an ass.

I was walking in the plane, with my bag and my ticket while looking for my seat. "Damn it." I thought to myself. I took a look at my ticket only to find out that my seat was 28 C. Which means I wouldn't get to sit by the window.

I finally found my seat, only to find two other people sitting in the other seats. It looked like they were talking, could it be a husband and a wife? I just hope they won't have a make out session right next to me.

As I took my seat, I could tell that the man next to me turned to look at me, but I didn't think much of it. At least, not until a couple of minutes later.

"Amaya?" He spoke. The voice was familiar enough for me to understand who it was. I turned my head and, there he was. Fucking Chase.

"Oh, Chase!" I said, trying to sound normal "what are you doing here?"
"What do you think most people do in an airplane?" he asked.
"I meant... where are you going?" I tried not to sound awkward, as if my heart wasn't skipping a beat.

"LA, for some work" he said "you?"
"Vacation." I simply replied.
"Alone? In LA? That's dangerous, you know." He mentioned.

"Actually I'm going with my friends to Riverside. There's a luxurious hotel there." I announced.
"Really? The hotel doesn't happen to be called GoldenFame, does it?" Chase asked.
"Yes...it is." I replied, now I was really skeptic.
"Wow, I guess we'll see each other, since I'm going to stay there with Eleanore, in two days"

I nodded slowly at him. Why did this have to happen?

My thoughts were interrupted when the plane started moving, and later we found ourselves in the air. I closed my eyes, trying to get some sleep, since this would be a five hour flight, and it was quite early.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I woke up after a while, I looked over at Chase, only to find out that I had been sleeping in his arms. He had moved the armrest between us, and fell asleep while he had his hands around me waist.

I got up quickly, and decided to go to the bathroom. Not that I needed to pee or anything, I just wanted to avoid him for a bit.

Cause this flight, will be awkward.
