USA and unfortunate events // Chapter 22

~ Athena's eyes

Exhausted wasn't enough to describe the state I was in. I didn't sleep during the whole flight, not even a bit. I couldn't sleep knowing that I was crossing oceans in a fucking flying machine. Nevertheless, I watched almost every single movie available in the plane, including lots of my favorite Disney movies. It's never bad to re-watch every single High School Musical movie that exists.

After more than nine hours in the plane we finally arrived at the States. I grabbed my backpack and waited until the whole crew that traveled with us was ready to leave the plane.

"Hey" My sister sat down next to me

"Hi" I responded

"Ath, oh my god, you look terrible"

"Oh wow, thank you sis" I scoffed

"I didn't mean it that way, did you get any sleep?"

"No, I didn't"

"God, why are you so stubborn" She rolled her eyes

"Cause i'm an aquarius" I laughed

"Oh yeah, blame it on your sign" We both let out a giggle

"Morning" A groggy voice said

Anna and I both turned to look at eachother and our eyes went wide.

Niall

"Morning" Anna responded and I only nodded

He let out a sigh and I couldn't help but feel a bit bad, I don't know how long I will be able to be mad at him.

"Alright everyone, this is our plan. Paparazzi is in the airport, you will both try to cover up but not a lot, we want them to see you and take some pictures. Athena you have an interview later today, i'll let you know when. Athena and Niall, keep your distance, we don't want any rumors spreading around, don't flip off the paps, be nice, and smile please" Richard said all of that in one single breath and I was surprised, what are his lungs made out of? Steel?

"Alright" Niall and I said in unison and I couldn't help but roll my eyes while he laughed.

Was he enjoying this?

When we finally left the plane, I was able to hear every single scream and every single camera trying to capture pictures of the two singers leaving the plane. Panic was growing in my chest and I had that cold feeling in my stomach that I get every single time I'm uncomfortable with something. Being the centre of attention was never the thing I did best. Neither Bailey or Anna were allowed to come with me since Richard thought that if they were more people with us it would steal our spotlight.

The sun was coming out making the sky look like a beautiful canvas in which orange, yellow and red have been splattered all over. The light warm air was tickling my face giving me a bit of a break from the dense, humid, cold London air. It was my first time in the US and I was beyond grateful for having the opportunity to visit other countries.

Finally entering the actual building, a lot of questions popped out of nowhere, however I continued walking.

'Are you two dating?'

'Athena, Athena here please!'

'What do you think about Louis Tomlinson's debut album Walls?'

'Niall, did you fuck her yet?'

I stopped dead in my tracks and looked at the pap who said that. One thing that I didn't stand was disrespect, and that question not only was treating me like a fucking toy, but was also treating Niall like a man who had to fuck every single woman he was seen with.
