“Who is that man standing there holding a sign with your name on it?” Hayden asks into my ear as we stride down a hallway at LAX.

The sign just comes into my line of vision as one of the band's bodyguards steps slightly to the left. Two of them were waiting at the gate upon our arrival. I recognize the heavily bearded one from the tour, but the other one must be new. They quickly and efficiently ushered us through the crowded airport. Beside a small cluster of fans who somehow managed to find out the flight information and get into this side of the airport, as well as wait outside the gate, people have left them relatively alone.

I was worried what Hayden’s reaction might be to see the crowd waiting when we stepped off the plane, but he simply pulled his hoodie back over his head to hide his messy hair and greeted the fans with a smile. The four of them took pictures before being scooped up by the two bodyguards, not wanting to draw a crowd.

I must’ve given Hayden a funny look after we parted with the fans because he asked me what was wrong and I told him I hadn’t really seen him interact with fans much in the past. There are plenty of photos of him out there from years ago, posing and smiling with fan after fan. But on tour earlier this year, he rarely stopped to greet them when they gathered outside by the buses before or after shows. But Reid rarely did either, so it’s not like he stuck out with it. Just something I had noticed.

As we walked away, he said, “They’ve all gone through TSA,” and that was enough explanation for me. He felt safe that none of them had something on them that could potentially bring him or his friends harm.

But now, he eyes the man holding a sign with CARTER O’CONNOR in large, scribbly letters like a fancy driver waiting to pick up their client with suspicion.

“That would be my dad,” I tell him with a smile, and without a word, I slip past one of the guards.

A hand grazes my elbow as I pass, but Hayden issues a low warning to the guard to get his hand off of me and let me go.

My dad breaks out into a huge smile as he sees me part through the crowd and opens his arms for me to jump into them. The smell of fresh wood and paint envelop me the moment I fall into his embrace and instantly I’m at home.

“I didn’t know you were coming,” I say into his neck, his strong arms squeezing me one more time before letting me go.

“Well, wouldn’t have been much of a surprise if you did,” he replies with a smile that crinkles at the corners and pulls at the deep lines around his eyes.

“It’s good to see you.”

“You too, kiddo.”

He looks behind me, searching for my bag to carry for me, but comes up short.
