Chapter Eighteen:

A Whole New World

Five weeks passed by so quickly and it was really strange only talking to Jessie via telephone and the occasional Skype, not being able to physically touch her. I couldn’t stand it, but she did have school, not just this concert. The amount of work she’d put in was admirable, though. She wasn’t a slacker and I appreciated that.

My flight had finally landed at the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport and that’s where I sat, waiting for Jessie to board. I was pre-occupied, thinking about how one of the new acts that Blaze Line had just signed had gotten into some legal trouble. Did I cancel their contract, which I could, or still take a chance on them? I had a hard time being tolerant of people who got great opportunities and acted dumb.

Staring out at the tarmac and hoping that everyone would board the flight quickly so the 737 could get back in the air and start making its way to Newark, and then finally to West Africa, I thought about how there had better not be any unexpected surprises that I couldn’t take care of from across the ocean. It wasn’t like Gauge or Hunter could help me out until they arrived in West Africa for the concert. I was going to be gone for ten days and all the forms of technology I relied on regularly might not always be available or at optimal performance. I just had to hope that I’d put everything into perspective.

“Simon, hi,” Jessie said.

I jumped up and if it wasn’t for the extra space in first class, I would have bumped my head on the overhead luggage bins that would have been there.

“Jessie, hey there.” I looked at her. She looked like a walking ball of sunshine, wearing a white t-shirt with an abstract orange swirling sun on it, a white skirt and some sandals. A bit hipster, but she pulled it off, especially when you factored in her slightly tanned skin and the smile. She instantly made me happier and I felt like a better man.

I stood up and grabbed her carry-on bag. “Overhead?”

“Under the seat,” she said.

I slid it under the seat as she stood in the aisle and then turned around. It was only then that we hugged each other and I gave her the ‘friendly’ two back pats style hug, but I didn’t want to let her go. That floral scent she wore came back to me and I really liked it.

“Want me to take the inside seat?” she asked.

“If you don’t mind.”

“No problem,” she said, looking around. Her left eye brow raised slightly and then eased past me to sit down. Her skin brushed against my leg and although it was just material on material, my flesh reacted like she’d just seductively stroked my inner thigh.

I dropped into my seat and watched her fiddle with her seat belt. “Everything okay, Jess?”

“I guess. I was just looking around. This is so luxurious up here. Where’s everyone else?”

“In coach.
