Chapter 6

Andrew decides on New Orleans, which both surprises and delights me. I always wanted to go to the Crescent City, and I know that the French Quarter would be both fun and romantic. It’s going to be a short trip, because I have midterms coming up, and I can’t afford to miss any class time. Since it is such a short trip, I don’t pack more than an overnight bag. A few sets of underwear, a jacket, a dress for a fancy dinner, and a spare t-shirt or two is more than enough. Even Andrew takes it easy, switching out his starched shirts for cozy plaid ones, and his trousers for well-worn jeans.

“I can’t believe we’re going just like that,” I exclaim. It’s only been a few days since I made the suggestion, and I figured it would take much longer to put this all together.

“That’s the fun of it, isn’t it?” he says as he starts up the car. “Packing up and going on a whim.”

“To be honest, I haven’t done a lot of traveling. I’ve never had the time. And my dad was always so busy helping run the store. I’ve always wanted to though. I think if I’m going to be a good designer, I have to always find new sources of inspiration.”

“Well, I can promise you that we can travel as much as you want, whenever you want once you’re out of school. Do you have a list of places you’d like to go?”

“Oh for sure. There’s Europe of course, and Japan, and China. India would be really, really cool too, and maybe Egypt...”

We start discussing different countries and what we’d like to see. It turns out that Andrew likes to travel too, though he’s only gone for business. Lots of meetings and very little sightseeing means that he isn’t that much more experienced than me, which is a nice change for once. And he hasn’t been to New Orleans yet either. While it’s great that he knows so much more and has done so much more than me for most things, it’s still refreshing to have some things where we’re evenly matched. I start googling different things we might want to do in New Orleans when my phone beeps.

Oops, I think as I shut off the alarm. Forgot to take my birth control pill this morning. It’s in my overnight bag, but that’s in the trunk. I’ll have to remember to take it when we get to the airport. I turn back to my search and find these things called beignets that we have to try. Andrew nods knowingly. Of course a foodie like him would know all about that already, but the mouthwatering tower of fried dough and powdered sugar has my mouth watering.

Soon we are driving into the airport. But instead of heading towards the parking garage, Andrew veers off to a separate hanger.

“What’s going on?” I ask.

“We’re going to our ride,” he says. “I’ve got a private jet for us.”

“Seriously?”

“Well it’s the company’s actually, but I’ve requested it for the weekend.
