"That dumb boat ripped my dress!"

"I'm sorry ma'am we can reimburse you for it"

"Are you kidding me?! Reimburse? Do you know how much this dress cost?" She barks at the boat driver after we get off the boat in Tahiti.

"Can you not yell at him please?" I ask pulling her away from the man "I just want to get to the airport and go home"

"Fine!" She walks away and I follow behind her "where's the car taking us to the airport?"

"It'll be here shortly ma'am."

"Whatever" she walks away again.

Summer has been so bitchy the last few days of the trip and I can't figure out why, but I finally get to go home today and not deal with her.

All I've done this week was think about Mitch. I miss him so much, Summer wouldn't even let me talk to him or about him while we were here. Bora Bora was amazing and she was right, this is what I needed to get better after the coma, but the whole time I was here I felt like my world was back home.

"God I don't understand how people can be so incompetent, sir be careful with those bags!" Summer yells at everyone as they're trying to load the car up with our bags. Getting in the car "get me off this island!"

"You're being bitchier than usual"

"Shut up Jax no one asked you" she shoves earbuds in her ears and turns away from me, the car pulls away. Her nasty attitude would ruin my mood if I wasn't going to see Mitch today after spending a week away from him, yeah I know I was in a coma for a week and it's technically 2 weeks but still.

The more I thought about him the more it scared me, what if he hates me for leaving? What if when I get back I'm too late because he's already back together with Jessie? I torture myself every time I think about it, but all of that gets pushed out by thoughts of how amazing he is when we're together. I've yet to admit how in love I am with him and the second I lay my eyes on him those are going to be the first words I say to him.

After a long bumpy ride we get to the airport, as we're waiting for our bags to get cleared Summer starts "so I kinda lied about losing your phone" she takes it out of her bag "here it is don't freak out." When we got to the airport last Saturday we were waiting for our plane, I handed Summer my phone to hold while I looked for something to eat. I come back half an hour later she tells me she lost it but she'd get me a new one when we get back.

"Summer! You FUCKING ASSHOLE!" I tear my phone from her hand "seriously do not fucking speak to me the whole ride home!" I walk away furious, I want to punch her in the face so bad right now!

"I wouldn't call Mitch on that by the way! You know international calls cost a shit ton or whatever!" She yells as I walk away

"EAT A DICK SUMMER!"

"Ladies and gentlemen welcome to Los Angles California" the captain says and everyone starts the cliche clapping. Get me off this freaking plane!

Not bothering to wait for Summer I grab my carry on and rush off the plane finding the nearest bathroom. I spent exactly one week without hearing Mitch's voice and I don't think I can handle another second. Taking the phone out of my pocket I quickly press the power button and wait for it to turn on. After waiting a couple of seconds with no respond I click the power button again and instead of turning on the screen flashes the low battery life "Summer you fucking bitch!" I whisper trying not to lose it.

Taking a moment to get myself together so I won't beat Summer's ass, I walk to the luggage area and find her standing their waiting "how's Mitch?" She asks as I walk over and stand next to her

"The phone's dead you psycho maniac" I reply and she chuckles under her breath.

Getting off the elevator after we get our bags I look around and find Summer's driver holding a sign that says her name on it. "Hey that's me" we walk up the him "where's my dad?" Summer asks

"Your father is held up at the moment Miss Adams but he says he'll see you back at the house, and I'm instructed to take you home I believe?" the driver turns to me

"Yeah" I reply

"Where will that be?"

"1406 elm wood road"

"HA!" Summer yells her fake laugh "really Jax? Mitch's house?"

"Sir can you take us to the car please?" I ignore her.

"Right this way" we follow him.

Sitting far away from each other in the car I try to not focus on Summer yelling to her dad on the phone "we'll talk about this when I get home I cannot stand you right now!" She yells then hangs up. "My mom's making dinner" she says

"Woopdido." I roll my eyes.

"Hey mom" Summer gets out of the car as her mom waits

"Honey welcome home!" Her mom yells

I stand near the car ready to go see Mitch. It's pretty late now and all I want to do is leave. "Jax come inside sweetie dinner's ready" her mom calls me in as she drags Summer

"Oh umm I actually have to get home but-"

"Nonsense come on!" She doesn't take no for an answer.

Groaning annoyingly I grab my stuff from the back "what should I do?" The driver asks as I dramatically throw my things on the side walk

"Leave! Leave before I change my mind!" I bark. 

Walking in I already start to think my way out of this mess "over here Jax!" Summer's mom calls out from the dinning room. I follow their voices and walk in to a table covered with food "sit next to Summer" fuck her.

I can't let myself forget how furious I am at Summer right now. The only thought that's keeping me sane and not ripping her face off is getting to see Mitch, he makes all of this worth it.

We sit at the table and I conjure up a way to get away from them to find an outlet to plug my phone in. As they babble on with meaningless conversations I yell "I need to go use the bathroom!"

"Okay?" they stop talking and turn to me.

Grabbing my bag, I rush away from the table heading down the hall into one of the bathrooms that has an outlet. I lock myself in the bathroom and quickly plug in my phone, putting it down I impatiently wait for it to turn on. "Come on phone it shouldn't take this long!" I whisper starting to pace back and forth.

What if Mitch called? What if there are messages I should've gotten long time ago? I don't think I'm ready for that.

The screen lights up and I panic "keep it together Jax" I point to myself in the mirror.

Picking it up I wait for it to ask for my passcode, all my messages and voicemails pop up as soon as I unlock the screen. I scroll through to find the only one that matters.

Oh god he left me a voicemail! Preparing myself I press play and hold it up to my ear "hey umm since I haven't heard from you I figured you're probably busy having fun. I'd really like to talk to you when you get back, come find me. I uh... I miss you"

Without another thought I click on his name and text him 'up for a little saving tonight?' I hold my breath and press send.

I hold my phone staring at the screen from the moment I sent my text until he replies. My whole body vibrates when the phone vibrates 'are you kidding? It's what I live for' he replies

A smile grows on my face 'well in that case HELP! Summer's house!'

"Jax you alright?!" Summer interrupts and my smile vanishes

"Do me a favor and go away!" I yell then hear her walk away.

'Captain Mitchell to the rescue.'
