Spending the rest of the long flight with her back to the young man who embarrassed keep tapping her shoulder, Jasmin blindly looked out the window as she thought of Nick. She wondered where he was and what he was doing, a longing ache in her heart echoed as she wondered if he was with another girl. Her mind slid back into the past as she remembered the first time she met him, she remembered of how stunning he was, of how great he seem compared to other people, of how much she wished she could be as confident as he was. Drifting in and out of sleep, Jasmin was jolted out of slumber by the sound of the tinny voice of the pilot telling everyone they were circling the island.
Avidly, she leaned in closer to the window as the beautiful sight revealed itself. The brightly green island outlined with snowy white sand and surrounded by a deep blue ocean was gorgeous to Jasmin as she ooohed and ahhhed with everyone else on the plane. As they got closer, she could pick out the shapes of buildings and high skyscrapers. Feeling dazzled, Jasmin was still speechless when the plane landed. She was pushed out into the airport and was in awe of the bright colorful sights around her. Jasmin dragged her bag to the road and flipped out her cell phone. She dialed for James, lost about where she was to go.
James wakes from his sleep startled to hear his cell phone. He jumped up to answer it "Hello Jasmine how may I help you don't tell me your late!!"
Rolling her eyes, Jasmin answered. "Where do I go? I'm kind of lost right now.....can you pick me up please?" She didn't bother putting on a sugary voice for James; he was too used to her ways to fall for them now. Irked she flicked a lock of her long black hair out of her face as she waited for his answer.
James smacked himself in the face and thought hard "I will come to the airport give me a sec, oh and is Heather with you?" He starts for the door as he asks her.
A sly smile spread evilly across Jasmin's face as she heard James's question. She chuckled as she taunted. "Sorry James but sweet lil Heather isn't here yet." Jasmin sighed loudly as she sat down on the curb with her bags around her. The hot sun glared down on her as she watched the people at the airport, the greeters with exhausted fake smiles, the eager families, and the happy lovers. A soft smile added even more to her beauty as she witnessed the happiness of peoples reuniting.
He walks up to her after his couple minute walks and smiles and puts out his hand. "You shouldn't sit on the curb you can get you clothes dirty" He waits for her to grab his hand so he can help her up.
Jasmin looked up and playfully grabbed his hand as she pulled herself up. She smirked as she said. "Wow you care...I'm touched." She wrinkled her nose before she smiled brightly. Throwing her arm over his shoulders, she nudged him. "Thanks for picking me up." She said as they walked along.
"Hey I am picking you up instead of just giving you directions because I would feel bad and it wouldn't look good you know I mean I am your friend and all." He smiles back at her and says excited "I picked a great place with a real good beach view!"
She returned the smile as she shrugged. Jasmin said, “To be honest, just being here is enough to make me happy but hey I'm not complaining about a great view!" She giggled before she slipped a cunning look at James. "So are you finally going to tell her?" She causally said as she looked
