my eyes fluttered open as i felt a hand run up and down my arm.

"we've landed." johnny murmured in my ear.

i sighed and let my eyes adjust. i didn't want to move off of him, he was so comfortable... and warm.

i slowly sat up and saw people getting out of their seats and grabbing their luggage from the overhead storage.

i looked at johnny, he was smiling at me.

"how long was i asleep for?" i frowned.

"three hours. feels nice doesn't it?" he teased.

i laughed, rolling my eyes and shoving his arm, playfully.

"shut up. i've never flown this late before, i guess that why..."

he hummed as he nodded and stood up. he walked into the aisle and grabbed our bags.

i stood up and stretched. then i realized where we were.

i gasped as i grabbed my phone out of my pocket.

i was going to text alahna but she beat me to it.

i laughed as i read her messages that were in all caps.

I KNOW YOU LANDED
WE ARE AT THE GATE AND SAW YOUR PLANE
HURRY UP YOU RAT

"lana, is very excited to see us." i told johnny.

"that's good. what are the plans for today?" he asked, handing me my bag.

"well, nate, alahna, and lizzie are here to pick us up and we will all be spending the night at lizzie's house because it's too early in the morning to go to my parents. we are going to their house tomorrow and gonna spend the day with them." i told him as we started walking off the plane.

"ok. sounds good." he smiled.

"oh my god! i'm so excited to see everyone! i'm so excited for you to meet everyone!" i beamed.

"me too." his smile got wider.

we walked out to the terminal and my eyes started scanning for my friends.

i saw them almost immediately and thought i would cry from joy.

alahna, nate, and lizzie stood there, big smiles on their faces when they saw us.

alahna's jaw dropped as she stuck her arms out.

without a second thought, i ran to her.

i practically threw myself in her arms as she wrapped me in a tight hug.

"oh my god! i missed you so much!" she squealed.

"i missed you too!" i leaned back and she cupped my face.

"you look gorgeous!" she gushed.

"so do you!" i backed up and looked at nate.

"nate." i smiled at him.

"hey, lee." he smiled as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

i hugged him back before stepping back and looking at lizzie.

i gasped as i looked at her face. she was so beautiful. i had missed her so much when we graduated.

"lizzie!" i laughed, wrapping my arms around her neck and pulling her in.

"lia!" she squealed, hugging me back.

"it's been so long! too long!" i told her.

"ugh, i know!"

we stepped back and i looked at johnny.

"guys, this is johnny." i blushed.

he introduced himself to them as they did the same.

"ok! so, my parents aren't home tonight and they took my little brother with them so we are staying at my house tonight. all of us! come on!" lizzie beamed, she started walking in the direction of the exit.

once we finally got to the car, we headed to find somewhere to eat. we decided on going through a mcdonald's drive through.

after we ordered our food and drove away, nate started telling a story about me and alahna during our junior year.

"that's not how it happened!" alahna yelled, laughing.

"i'm pretty sure it was!" nate laughed.

"guys! when we get to my house we are binging the hunger games!" lizzie yells.

we all agree as she pulls onto her street.

once we get to the house, they help my and johnny carry our bags upstairs to our rooms.

alahna elbows me in the ribs and nods towards johnny, who's walking in front of us.

she mouths something teasingly and i laughed.

"stop." i whispered, playfully pushed her arm.

"i can't. you are guys are soooo..." she whispered back, making a face.

"what are you two whispering about back there?" johnny asked, turning his head.

i shook my head and opened my mouth to say 'nothing' but didn't get the chance.

"you." alahna stated.

my eyes widened as i shot her a glare. she laughed as he raised an eyebrow.

i waved him off, shaking my head with a blush on my cheeks.

i sighed and looked back up at him.

i was in deep.
