15 Chapter 15

Justin woke up fine today, as it took time for him to adjust to the new bed. Then, he went towards Fiona and saw her sleeping. It was already nine, so he thought of waking her up. But as soon as he began to remove the curtains, Fiona groaned.

"Please don't."

He ignored her and tried to wake her up. "Good morning, Fiona. It's time for you to wake up." Justin said while shaking her a little.

"Please, 5 minutes more." She pleaded.

"Come on, Fi, we slept early yesterday." He tried again.

"But I like to wake up late and, besides, it's a holiday. So, more sleeping time. Just wake me up in half an hour, I promise."

"Okay, fine. Only 30 minutes more." Justin agreed.

"Love you, Dad. Now, shoo, let me get my beauty sleep." His eyes were wide.

She thought he was her dad. Well, he didn't know what to think of that, but it was amusing to see her talk like this.

*after 30 min*

Justin again went into her room to wake her up. "Fi, your 30 minutes are up, so get up now."

"Please, five more minutes." She said.

"No, Fiona. You are waking up now." However, she did not respond to him.

Wow!! She really does love sleeping.

Slowly, there was a smirk forming on Justin's face as he thought of a plan to wake her up. On his phone, he had a recorded shouting voice of James that was quite loud. He placed his phone next to her ear and pressed the play button.

She jerked and sat up straight with wide eyes. Justin was rolling on the floor, laughing like a maniac.

"You!" She was giving him an accusing look.

"Hey! It's not my fault that you sleep like a beast, and well, this seems the only way to wake you up."

She looks at him with a raised eyebrow; then, she started laughing. "Okay, fine. But I had no idea you were a prankster."

"Well, you know that now." He winked. "Come on, we have a flight at three, and we need to leave by one-thirty."

"Holy crap! Why didn't you wake me up… We will be late… Me and my stupid habit." She was babbling and pacing back and forth.

Justin instantly grabbed her by placing his hands on her shoulder and calming her down, "Relax, we won't be late."

She nodded.

In no time, it was one o'clock, and they were both ready to leave. However, it took them about an hour to reach the airport due to traffic. Soon, they

boarded their flight and were on their way to Paris.

It was a six-hour flight. However, the flight was on time. So hopefully, they should reach the airport by 9.

When the plane was going to depart, Fiona shut her eyes tight and felt someone holding her hand.

When she felt that the plane was finally high up in the sky, she slowly opened her eyes and sighed.

"Scared?" Justin asked curiously.

"Nope, it's just that I feel nauseous. I am not a big fan of traveling by plane. Being patient and sitting in one place for hours long is not my thing. "

Justin started chuckling. "Don't worry. I can be an excellent company, you know." He said proudly.

"Well, we will find that out soon." Fiona said in a teasing tone.

"Let's play 20 20 questions, the best way to pass our time, and I would like to know you."

"Hmm, sounds like a brilliant idea." She smiled.

"Cool, so your favorite color?" He asked.

"Purple.... You?"

"Blue... Why is a rose not your favorite flower, unlike the rest of the female population?"

"How did you know I am not that big fan of roses?"

"Well, when we were exploring our garden, I observed that you have a thing for orchids, and you were pretty casual about roses, though." Fiona was

shocked about how observant he is.

"Orchids always look so vibrant and lively, and I don't particularly hate roses. It's just they don't attract me as much as orchids do."

"Well then, purple orchids are your favorite flower."

"Well, you got that right." She said.

The game went on and on for an hour or so, and they both learned many things about each other.

It was really fun to know Fiona. That's what Justin thought. He was extremely enjoying himself. He had a feeling this journey would be interesting. After

their little game, which turned out to be 100 questions instead of 20, they both watched a movie. After two and a half hours of the film, both of them were

listening to music.

After about an hour or so, Justin felt something on his shoulder. He saw that Fiona's head was on his shoulder, and her hand was gripping his arm. She

was sleeping peacefully. So he removed her earplugs from her ear. She looked so beautiful while sleeping. Slowly, even he drifted off to sleep.

This was indeed a close to perfect moment for them, if not perfect.
