Daisy
After the f****d up first date followed by a weird ass morning. turned to Marcus and asked.
- Will you send my ticket to my email? Oh and before you leave, when should we meet at the airport? - he looked confused and Max just arrived back white as the wall.
- Rats loaded. - he said and took a seat at the counter. I felt sorry for him for a moment but at least I knew his weakness. He turned to me and said.
- Don't even think about it. If you ever try to scare me with a rat, I'm throwing it out of the window and you'll follow it. - Marcus laughed and I grinned at Max. My smile caught him out of guard.
- Why is she smiling at me like she is thinking "Challenge accepted"??? - Max asked from Marcus and he glanced down at me.
- She is weird. - he said simply and turned his attention back to me.
- To answer your questions. We will pick you up at six. See you later Daisy! - he said and without further explanation he pulled Max off of the chair and they left. I stood in the middle of my apartment looking at the door and started to laugh.
- JUST WHAT THE ACTUAL f**k?! - I screamed and couldn't stop laughing.
- Oh my dear Lord... Nani?! Why? Por qué?! Are these two nuts?! Am I really leaving to Italy with them? Am I normal? What's wrong with me? - Oh no don't even think about answering that question. I sat on the floor and just laughed for a few more minutes. What else could I do? When I collected myself a bit I started to load everything possible to expire while I'm away to the freezer. I loaded the washing machine and cleaned the house. Double checked my luggage and charged all electronic devices I had also the extra power banks. The flight is going to be long, I'll download a few movies and anime just in case! I did as I thought and before I realized, Marcus was already there to pick me up. I grabbed my suitcases and with a deep breath I walked to the car. You can do this Hina! Come on! Fake it till you make it! I hopped in the car and Max drove us to the airport. I headed to the checking but Marcus grabbed my arm and locked it with his.
- Excuse you. What are you doing? - I said and he raised an eyebrow.
- We are not going there. - he said and it was my time to raise an eyebrow. Marcus lead me out to a fancy private jet where Max was already loading the luggages onto. He took mine as well without a word and Marcus lead me to the stairs. A lovely stewardess waited at the top of the stairs and greeted me sceptically.
- Welcome! I hope you'll enjoy your flight. My name is Jenna. - she kept her eyes on Marcus while she was talking to me. I put a hand on her shoulder and said in a low voice to avoid Marcus to hear it.
- If you were thinking about f*****g my man during this flight, let me recommend you to just go f**k yourself. - I smiled at her sweetly afterwards and introduced myself.
- Daisy, Marcus's girlfriend. - I walked in with awe and heard Jenna mumbling something about me being a b***h and greeting Marcus with the sweetest voice. For me it sounded like nails on a white board. Marcus hopped next to me and while the crew got ready and Max arrived as well, I turned to him.
- If that's what you like, you seriously need to improve your taste in woman. - I said nodding towards Jenna. She was actually gorgeous, tall, blonde, blue eyes and a killer figure.
- She looks good. - he said with a teasing tone and I shrugged.
- Yeah, if you like rotten fruits. Can't you take a seat somewhere else? This plane is big enough not to disturb me. - he lifted a ticket and said.
- I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but this is my seat. - I stared at the ticket and wanted to hit him. I wished I had my decor pillow with me. This maniac made a fake plane ticket to his own jet just to mock me. I took a deep breath and tried to keep calm but Jenna arrived again. She smiled at Marcus and started to chat with him. I put my earphones in to close her voice out and listened to a murder mystery podcast. In about fifteen minutes we took off and I fall asleep.
Marcus
Daisy fell asleep with her earphones in, I carefully took them out but couldn't help and listened to what she fall asleep to. I expected some cute anime songs, or something from the 70s-80s, instead the following started.
"The body was a man who was dressed impeccably in a suit with polished shoes and his head was slumped against a wall. Authorities thought the cause of death was heart failure or more likely poisoning but, no trace of poison was found in the autopsy." - I looked at the peacefully sleeping Daisy who even smiled in her dreams and almost laughed out loud. Max turned to me and asked what was going on. I gave him the earphones and he just shook his head.
- Why do I even get into this? - he asked from himself and decided to sleep a bit as well. I grabbed a few files and started to check them out. Soon, Jenna appeared.
- Is everything alright Mr. Kane? - she asked and I remembered what Daisy listened to.
- I don't know. - I said honestly and started to wonder if getting Daisy involved in this mess was really the wisest decision. Jenna looked at me with a charming and worried expression while she caressed my arm.
- Can I help you with something? - she asked batting her eyelashes.
- Yeah, could you please check if I'm back there? - Jenna's face distorted as she heard Daisy's voice and I turned to her stunned. She just woke up and looked pissed at Jenna. She didn't mover her hands off me yet and Daisy smiled sweetly.
- Honey, I'm afraid your stewardess is deaf. - Jenna's face got red with anger.
- Excuse me, but I was talking to Mr. Kane. - she said and I watched Daisy shrug with a smile. Her lips were smiling but her eyes looked dangerous.
- You are excused. - she said and Jenna finally gave up. She walked away and I asked.
- What was this? Are you perhaps jealous Babybee?- Daisy shook her head.
- Jealous of what?
- Jenna is really beautiful and she is interested in me. - I tried to tease Daisy but my plan backfired.
- In this case, Mr. Kane, why is she not your fake fiance? - Daisy got up and went to the restroom leaving me in confusion. Max woke up when Jenna left and we both looked at the direction the little Bumblebee left.
- What do you think, she is seriously pissed or she is messing with your head? - Max asked and for the first time in years I got really worried.
- I can't tell, and this is terrifying.
Daisy
Oh dear Lord! Those faces! I must stay here and try to keep quiet. I've changed my mind. I don't need a movie or anything, this is going to be hilarious! I got myself together put on a poker face and walked back to my seat. Who needs entertainment when you can create your own? Marcus looked at me with a puzzled expression.
- Is everything okay? - he asked and I looked into the worried blue eyes and couldn't hold back my laughter anymore.
- That's what you get for messing with me this morning! - I said and he sighed with relief, but immediately grabbed my hands and lifted them above my head with one hand holding my wrists. Marcus got dangerously close, I could feel his breath caressing my neck while he whispered.
- Two can play this game, Babybee.
