"It's been an hour," Paul's voice gently coaxed her from her sleep. She opened her blue eyes to stare around the small cabin, an utterly befuddled expression evident on her young face. Not her home, not Paul's home. Where was she, exactly? She wiped the confusion from her eyes and yawned.
"You okay?" Paul inquired softly, leaning closer to her with a wide grin. "You look confused."
"We're on an airplane?" she asked softly.
Paul erupted into laughter. "Amy, hello! We're going to Australia? Don't you remember?"
Amy nodded. "We're going to Australia."
"For a gig?" Paul coaxed with great amusement. "We're opening for Green Day?"
Amy nodded and continued to yawn. "It's only been an hour?"
"Yeah," Paul frowned playfully. "I've been staring at my watch ever since the plane took off. Incidentally, that was right around the time you fell asleep and left me to wallow in my boredom. Alone."
"Sorry," Amy grinned and snuggled back into the leather seat. "I'm tired."
Paul smirked. "I'm horny."
"That's lovely," Amy quipped, fidgeting in her seat. "Where's everyone else?"
"Umm," Paul inched up in his seat to stare down the length of the plane. "Chris and Benji are singing the Macarena and dancing in their seats. Joel looks asleep. How the fuck can he sleep through that?"
Amy giggled.
"And I think Billy and Linzi are both asleep too," he sighed. "How come everyone can sleep on planes but me?"
Amy shrugged.
"I'm horny," Paul smirked for the second time.
"What did you do while I slept?" Amy inquired, ignoring her boyfriend's veiled hint.
Paul shrugged and crossed his arms over his broad chest. "Watched you sleep. Watched some of the movie. Tried to write some poetry."
"Anything good?" Amy grinned, searching the floor between them for her boyfriend's journal.
"Not really," Paul frowned, leaning forward to grab Amy's hand. "But I discovered something while writing."
"What's that?" Amy smiled sweetly, allowing him to take her small hand into his own.
Paul grinned mischievously. "I'm horny!"
"PAUL!" Amy nearly shrieked, causing several of the nearby passengers to glare at the couple. She cringed and shook his hand off. "Stop! We're on a plane," she finished with a slight whisper. "Stop!"
