Chapter Six: Away We Go

Since the bunks on the bus were more like coffins than bunks I couldn't sleep with Taylor. We all got our own bunk. We drove to Chicago to catch our flight to Paris. It was amazing how many fans there were waiting for them.
"Are there always this many fans here?" I asked.
"Only when they know that we are going to be here." Zac said.
"But we don't mind. It's because of them that we can tour like this." Isaac said.
"So should we stay back or what?" Care asked while she grabbed her stuff. "Cuz you know you aren't supposed to have "girlfriends" or whatever."
"Yeah we know but we want you to stay near us." Taylor said as he grabbed my hand and kissed me. I looked over at Diana like "Well?" And she gave me a slight push and said "Don't worry about it. Now hurry up and catch him." I felt so much better when she said that and I caught up with him quickly. Once Tay realized I was by his side he grabbed my hand. With Zac and Care behind us and Beth and Isaac ahead of us each holding the other's hand you could just sense the anger from the fans. But the guys took it in stride and so did we. Hanson still loved their fans-a lot but they just loved us more.
We got to the plane safely with the help of Jason and the boys. We all got first class seats which was really nice.
"How can you stand that all the time?" Beth asked referring to the fans. "I think I'd go crazy"
"I guess you just get used to it after awhile." Tay said as he grabbed a bottled water and made his way to the seat next to me. "Oh wait I forgot something." And he was off again. Mackenzie then peaked his head around the seat, "Mommy said I get to sit next to you." He said eagerly.
"Well Ok then," I said as I put him in the window seat and me in the middle.
"Here you go honey." Taylor said when he returned. "I knew you liked French Vanilla Cappuccino so I got you some. But be careful It's hot."
"Thanks sweetie." I said as I kissed him lightly with just a little tongue.
"Oh come on guys." Isaac said from behind us.
"Sorry Ike." I said. "I'll try to keep this sex crazed animal under control."
"ME?!?" Tay said laughing. He started to tickle me, "You're the one that always starts it." And he kissed me.
About half way through the flight I think all of us were sleeping. With all the surprises lately we were all pretty tired. I loved the way Taylor held me as close as possible. And to help me fall asleep he ran his fingers through my hair, he did it so lovingly I fell asleep almost instantly.
I woke up to Diana gently trying to wake up Tay. I opened my eyes slowly, that's when I saw Mackenzie-not in his chair but in my lap. I softly stroked his hair and he nestled his head further into my stomach. "Well good morning Amy." Diana said as she ran her fingers through my hair. I looked up at her and she kissed my forehead. "Why don't you try to wake up Taylor? We are going to be landing in like 15 minutes."
"Yeah sure." I said as I lifted Mackie off of me.
"Amy" He started to whine. "I was comfy."
"I honey know but we are landing in a few minutes so you have to get up."
"Okay" He said yawning and stretching.
"Come on honey you have to get up." I said to Taylor as I tickled him. "We're landing in a couple of minutes." His eyes opened slowly and once he saw it was me over him he smiled. I kissed him softly. "I love you Amy Lee." He said and he kissed me again. "I love you too. Now get up."
Within the next few minutes the whole Hanson clan was awake.
"Ok, so I'm not used to traveling half way around the wotld but what time is it?" Beth asked.
"6:32" Walker said.
"In the morning?" Care asked. He nodded.
"Well no wonder we are all so tired." I said.
"Don't worry honey oonce we get to the hotel we all go back to sleep anyway." Taylor said as his fingers slightly brushed my cheek.
"Good." I heard Care mumble in front of us. We all cracked up she was so funny. There were more fans in Paris than in Chicago. "I can't believe they get up this early just to see you guys." I said shocked.
"Why? You would if you weren't with us." Tay said as he waved to all their fans. I found it amazing that they could seem so happy and awake when all they really wanted to do was sleep.
Beth, Care, and I all fell asleep in the van on the way to the hotel. When I woke up I found myself in bed with Taylor. At first I was confused as to how I got there but only for a second. I fell back asleep after tightening my grip on Tay's hand placed ever so lovingly around my waist.
