“What?” he asked.

“She said that she’s going to start a swear jar.” I giggled.

Court grunted.

Seraphina got on the plane and glared at the people that stared back at her.

“Either the jump seat or nothing,” Beau growled.

She hissed at him and took the seat that was normally reserved for flight attendants.

The flight attendant that was busy getting her cart ready looked less than enthused to be sharing her space.

Beau stopped next to the pilot and said. “Pull the door.”

The flight attendant did just that, closing the flight in.

“Three hours of this,” I muttered mostly to myself.

Court grunted. “Can’t say that I’ve ever had this much animosity aimed my way.

When I looked it was to find Seraphina glaring daggers at Court.

She flipped him off when he didn’t look away.

Beau grunted and retook his seat next to me, muttering under his breath. “Wish she’d just fuck off already.”

“Language,” Nettie called from her seat behind us.

He flipped her off, causing her to giggle.

“That’s another quarter,” Eddie called.

Beau growled.

I thought it was adorably cute.

The plane ride went as expected.

There was glaring galore, and by the time that the plane landed, everyone was ready to be rid of her.

She was mad because she couldn’t have Cristal—something that Beau said he got rid of last year because there was “no fucking reason in the world we should have that expensive of alcohol on board when no one drank it.”

She was mad because she didn’t get a meal—the team manager had picked up food for everyone, not including her, since she wasn’t supposed to be here.

She was also angry that the seat was less than ideal.

By the time that she marched her uptight ass off the plane, my eardrums were ready for a break.

There were cheers that followed her exit, and Beau was laughing by the time he got up and headed out the door.

Iris was hot on his heels.

I followed suit, a lot slower since I had to gather all of Iris’s belongings.

Court patiently waited for me to gather everything and even grabbed her booster seat for me when my hands were full.

When I got down the stairs, it was to find Beau rigid and staring at a black SUV speeding off.
