Zac looked out the window of the plane. He hated oversea flights, they always made him nauscious. He was glad they would be staying in London for quite some time, recording a new album, so that he wouldn't have to get on another plane in a while.
Isaac stared meaninglessly at the back of the seat in front of him. He had been, literally, mentally unstable since his fiance had left him. Secretly Zac was happy the marriage had been broken. He had never felt that Deanna was good enough for Isaac. 'Should I go talk to him?' Zac shook his head negatively. Isaac didn't really talk to anyone except for his friend, Matt, back at Tulsa. Zac knew Ike would get over Deanna soon enough. He was only 23 and, in Zac's opinion, too young to get married anyway.
It probably didn't help that Taylor was bringing his girlfriend on the trip. Except that Andrea was exactly the kind of girl that Taylor needed. All of the fame and girls and gone to Taylor's head. It had taken the falling of their U.S. popularity and his meeting Andrea to make Taylor step off his imaginary throne of supremacy. Andrea, Angel as Taylor referred to her, had met Tay backstage at a concert. The show had been nothing short of a disaster. The sound system blew, the "fans" booed them off the stage, and then a riot broke out. Taylor had blamed Zac and Isaac for everything that had gone wrong. Andrea, not being able to stay quiet, told Taylor off as soon as she heard the tings Taylor was saying. He had been dumbfounded. No one had ever spoken to him like that before and he hadn't known what to do.
A heated arguement had broke out in between them, which was followed by an invitation to dinner the next night. Intrigued by her refusal to accept his treatment of others, Taylor couldn't stop himself from liking her. She had apologized to him countless amounts of times, saying her mouth was her biggest flaw. But as far as everyone in the Hanson family was concerned, her big mouth was what had "brought Taylor back to them."
Taylor looked at Andrea and took a hold of her hand. A warm feeling rushed through him, like it always did when he touched her. He was sure it was love, but he was afraid to say anything. Terrified she didn't feel the same way.
Andrea leaned her head on his shoulder. It was almost too perfect. She was on her way to London where she would be living with the man she had nearly idolized since fourteen. Sure the concert incident had scarred her respect for him, but it had returned and intensified as she uncovered his natural demeanor.
The plane landed and the Hansons and Andrea left the airport with little to no hassle by fans. The Europeans had always accepted Hanson more openly than the Americans and so the family was relieved when there wasn't a mob to greet them.
Finally arriving at the three room apartment where Isaac, Taylor, Zac, and Andrea would be sharing everyone quickly unpacked.
There had been a discussion, several weeks long, over whether or not Andrea should be allowed to live with Taylor or should be forced to stay with the rest of the family. Walker and Diana had finally convinced Andrea's parents that at age 20 the two should be trustworthy.
As Taylor laid down next to Andrea, pulling her closer to him, he thanked God for all his blessings. He had never been so grateful that his parents trusted him, or that he got to spend so much time with a girl like Andrea. Silently he made a vow, that he would never leave her and that he would never take for granted the moments that they shared.
