Mr. and Mrs. Roberts and Moffatt woke up their children at 7am. They packed their rental cars and took off for the airport. While their parents checked to make sure nothing was wrong with their tickets, Scott, Bob, Clint, Dave, and Sarah sat in the chairs to catch up on some sleep before the long trip. Bob and Sarah were sitting on either side of Scott with their heads on his shoulders. Clint was sprawled out on the floor infront of Scotts feet. Dave was wide awake and looking for something to do. He had been reading a magazine but he was finished so he rolled it up. Suddenly Clint stirred on the floor and cleared his throat. With one quick swipe of the wrist Dave had smacked Clint on the head with the rolled up magazine.
What the hell? Clint asked as he sleepily looked for an explanation as to why he had been smacked in the head with a magazine. As he said this he was hit again. Scott who had seen what happened decided to speak up.
Dave stop it. Let him rest, Scott said. Thats when Dave hit him with the magazine too.
Dave give me the magazine! Sarah demanded. She was hit over the head too. Bob stood up on the chair and glared at Dave.
STOP IT RIGHT NOW! Im tired and I want some sleep!! Bob yelled.
Your always tired Bob, Clint commented from the floor without moving.
Oh shut up Clint, I didnt ask for you opinion! Bob barked at him. Thats when he felt the magazine smack him upside the head. Just as Bob was about to choke Dave his Dad and Mr. Roberts walked over. Bob stopped but Dave hit him over the head with the magazine.
Im not even going to ask, Mr. Roberts laughed.
Okay listen up guys. This is very important. Something went wrong with the tickets. They didnt have Bob, Sarah, and myself on the same flight as the rest of you. So the three of us will have to take the later flight. As for the rest of you gather your things you will be leaving soon, Mr. Moffatt explained. Sarahs heart sunk. She didnt want to stay with Bob. Bob was mad at her for some reason and she didnt want to deal with that right now.
Come on boys! Theyre boarding! Mrs. Roberts called from the gate. Scott, Dave, and Clint picked up their stuff and walked toward the gate. Clint kissed Sarah goodbye and said he would see her soon. Dave hit her over the head with the magazine and laughed. As Scott came over to her she began to cry.
Whats wrong? he asked wipping her tears away.
I cant stay with Bob!
Oh God. Okay Sarah honey listen to me just talk to him. I promise everything will be okay, Scott said as he backed toward the boarding ramp.
Alright, Sarah sobbed. Scott waved goodbye and turned to the plane. He hated leaving her in that condition but he knew shed get through it. She was a strong person.
Sarah took a deep breath and walked back over to Bob. He watched her sit down and wipe her eyes.
Sarah I owe you an apology, Bob informed her as he studied his shoes.
What did I do wrong? What did I do to upset you? Sarah asked. He looked into her eyes.
You didnt do anything Sarah. I was having a lot of mixed emotions about things and I was overwhelmed. I got angry and confused. It has nothing to do with you, Bob lied. He longed to tell her the truth, but he couldnt do that to her. He couldnt confuse her and make her unhappy.
Are you sure? Sarah whispered.
Im positive, Bob said looking at her. Her frown turned to a smile.
Im hungry, Sarah laughed as she rubbed her stomach.
Me too. What should we get? Bob asked.
Pizza! Sarah suggested.
In the morning?
Yeah!! Sarah said pulling him up. They walked to the nearest pizza restaurant in the airport and ate their pizza. It was that trip that made Sarah and Bob inseparable. From then on they would be best friends.
