Adele just kept walking, they needed to get the airport as soon as possible. She preferred to be on foot, but they would need to get a taxi or something to actually get into the airport. She sighed just thinking about this. She didn't want someone else to drive, plus she wanted to be able to just drive right out on the strip. Going toward her house she turned a sharp corner before Aden came up behind her and reminded her of their wedding day.
Adele didn't know what to say, she sputtered a couple of incoherent noises, but came up with nothing valuable to say. What was she supposed to do? Say she was sorry? She wasn't even sure if it was a good decision. In fact one day she would feel like it was the best decision for her life and the next day it would be her biggest regret. It wasn't like Aden was the only one who was hurting... Her hurt was a little more confusing. So instead of using real words she just glared at him, then stood longer strides.
They were at her garage in no time and without saying anything to him she jumped into the car. Once they were both buckled and ready to cruise she sped out of the garage and toward the airport. Within a couple of minutes they were on the air strip. And there sitting with the stairs folded open to the concrete was their little jet. And boy was it little. Adele stepped out of the car and gave her keys to a trusted employee of her father. He would know exactly what to do.
Next she made her way up the stairs and sat down at the first chair. The inside was lush, with leather seats and wooden tables with a bar in the back. Just a couple of tables with two or three seats were in this jet. It was meant for a slightly bigger party than just the two of them, but Adele didn't mind the extra space.
After the plane was situated and took off Adele finally spoke again. "We never joined the mile-high club." She said, while motioning to the restroom at the back of the plane. Her words were laced with a bitter tone, but she was trying to make a joke. She could tell already that this mission was going to be a long one.
