“I've flown three times,” Sorcha said.

“This will be my first flight. I admit I'm equal parts excited and apprehensive.”

“As long as we don't hit turbulence, we should have a smooth flight. Don't worry, I'll hold your hand,” Sorcha told him.

“Thanks, Sweetheart,” he said and leaned over and kissed her gently.

When their flight was called, they got in line and soon were taking their seats. Finley took the window seat and gave Sorcha the aisle so she could be close to Zaine in the other aisle seat. He gripped Sorcha's hand as they taxied down the runway and soon they were airborne.

“Breathe, Sexy,” Sorcha said and he released the breath he didn't realize he was holding.

“We've got a long flight, we might as well settle in,” she told him.

“Yeah. Almost ten hours,” he replied.

“It's late, we should try to sleep some,” Zaine said from where he sat.

“Yeah, that way we'll be wide awake when we arrive,” Sorcha agreed.

“Okay.” Finley opened the pillow and blanket he was given, leaned his seat back, and draped the blanket over himself and Sorcha. “Sweet dreams,” he said and Zaine chuckled.

“Sweet dreams,” Sorcha and Zaine both replied.

He let his eyes close and tried to forget the fact he was 30,000 feet in the air.

Chapter Six

Sorcha

The captain came over the intercom, informing the passengers they were nearing London, and excitement filled her. She'd always wanted to visit London, and now she had a few hours to check the city out. First stop, Evelyn's Table.

Once they were allowed to disembark, they grabbed their bags from the overhead bin and left the plane. “I'm starving, let's go to the restaurant first,” Sorcha said.

“Sounds good. I'm a bit famished myself,” Finley replied.

“Sounds like a plan,” Zaine said.

After using the money exchange to get Euros, they hailed a taxi and were soon in front of the restaurant. Zaine paid for the taxi and they headed inside.

Sorcha loved the way the place was set up. They had a long counter but also tables. Once they were seated, they looked over the menu. “I have no idea what this stuff is, so I'm just going to pick something and hope I like it,” Sorcha said with a soft laugh.

“Yeah, same,” Finley replied.

After they put in their order, they chatted about what they were going to do for the next few hours.

“After we see Big Ben, I don't care what we do,” Sorcha said.

“We don't really have time for any tours, so let's just play it by ear,” Zaine put in.

“Sounds good,” Finley said.

Their food arrived and they focused on eating.

“This is pretty good,” Sorcha said of her meal after a few bites.

“Same with mine,” Finley said.

“Mine's not too bad either,” Zaine said.
