I Hate Flying

[Nox]

The only thing keeping Nox from freaking the fuck out was the tiny one day old child strapped to his chest. People looked at him oddly as he carried the tiny baby around in a sling wrap, but Nox really didn't care. Though they were more or less staring at the missing arm as he paced the rows of the terminal they waited. They had arrived way too early. Nox's idea. He had to wrap his head around getting on a fucking plane.

Sage watched him from his seat. He looked as high as ever, and he knew he was busy doing a billion things in his head. When Sage found out he'd busted his arm he got this radical grin on his face that said he was going to use Nox for yet another test of something. Nox didn't mind -- it was afterall their entire relationship.

But Sage was a good friend and he'd set everything up. First class tickets so Nox wouldn't freak out with space. And their undisclosed friend would meet them at the airport.

Nox had gotten a text from Anna about a person claiming to be his brother. Sage had latched on to that quickly and was running facial recognition and pulling up everything and anything about the so-called brother. Not possible but still it was entertaining none-the-less and it kept Sage busy. But that wasn't the only strange thing that happened while he paced -- he received a strange call from a person everyone thought was dead.  Sage was all up in that one too.  He had so much going on Nox wondered how he managed to keep it straight, he was having a hard time not hyper focusing on the plane they were about to get on. Thankfully there was Lily.

Sterlilng had stopped by before he left and met the rest of the crew. She was excited to have more kids her age around, and Liv could show her how to heal. And they got discussing all sorts of things and they were both excited to learn new things. Liam looked sad but whenever he saw Nox looking at him he smiled shyly. Nox was pretty sure the kid had a crush on him. But they could deal with that later.  Who doesn't adore their knight in shining armor. Nox had saved his life quite literally from the sounds of the story he told. Nox was more than happy to be a friend to that one. He understood it far more than anyone else ever would.

Sterling had also brought the original Lily back and Nox was planning a fountain for the lotus in his room. He wished for his hoodie but he didn't know where to find Raffe, he'd taken a leave and hadn't been back to the club in a while.  Nox wasn't sure what happened to either gift he'd left, he hadn't asked and he hadn't bothered to look in Raffe's old room either. It was too sad.  

There wasn't much to do other than pace and wait until their flight was called.  And think -- way too much time to think.
