Chapter 91
"That's for the boss, Coach. You and I are going into that four-wheeled Toyota coaster bus," Jeremiah chuckled.
"Oh, of course..." Zeno was disappointed that he didn't get to ride with Sebastian.
He started to wonder if this was just a coincidence or if Sebastian was truly avoiding him.
As they walked past the limousine, Zeno tried looking through the tinted glasses to get a glimpse of Sebastian, but he couldn't see anything; the windows were too dark to allow him.
He sighed and followed Jeremiah's lead.
The Coaster bus was already steaming as Zeno stepped inside, the door sliding close behind them as they went in.
"Hey, Zeno, over here, I specifically kept this spot for you!" Andre called from the back seat.
Zeno smiled, "You got a seat?" He questioned Jeremiah, not wanting him to feel bad that he had left him to sit with someone else.
"He's got nothing, just bring your asses over here," Cody called from beside Andre.
"Come on," Jeremiah walked toward Cody and Andre.
As Zeno followed him behind, he saw Ida sitting with Jasper by the left. Jasper had his eyes closed with his head leaning on the window and a wireless headset across his head.
He saw other bodyguards sitting inside the bus, but he just went straight to the space left beside Andre.
"Eaten?" Jeremiah questioned from beside him, bending over to pull out a small cooler from underneath the seat.
Zeno was staring at him weirdly, "You brought food?" He chuckled.
Jeremiah shook his head, "Nah," He pulled a bottle out from the cooler, "Drinks, milk drink, a food substitute, since we all left without food, here," He unscrewed the cap and gave it to Zeno.
"Thank you..." Zeno smiled and drank the milk.
He was really thankful for it, he had thought he would have been hungry for however long the drive was going to be.
"You're welcome, Coach," He winked at Zeno and dragged the cooler to the center.
"Grab one guys, shut that roaring dragons in your tummy," Jeremiah announced.
He picked one and threw it to his twin, who was sitting in the front row.
"Thanks, Jerry," Thomas wriggled his brows at him.
After everyone had taken a drink and settled down before the bus started to move.
Zeno was quiet as everyone engaged in a conversation with the people sitting beside them.
Andre was speaking with Cody, but he couldn't just bring himself to join the conversation; his mind was on the person who was inside the limousine that was driving behind them.
He wondered if Sebastian was thinking about hon just the same way he was thinking about him. He was literally losing his sanity as time went by; it was getting to two hours since he woke up, and he hadn't seen him; he had gotten used to seeing him immediately after he woke up or stepped out of his room.
This distance was irking his body. He didn't like it.
Zeno brought out his phone and idly scrolled through apps, he hovered his thumb over the message icon, then he swiped it away, then swiped it back, swiped it away again, swiped it back, and this time, he quickly typed in Sebastian's name and fired off a simple text, "Hey, Seb..." Then he immediately pressed the power button and made the screen blackout, placing the phone face down on his lap.
He tapped his feet on the floor of the bus, his pulse racing as he imagined how Sebastian would react to his text.
Would he be happy seeing it or not?
But when Zeno didn't get any reply for a long time, his mood dampened more, he sighed and just kept being quiet for the rest of the ride.
They soon reached an airport written, -Orion Airways-
He never knew Sebastian owned an airway, but there were a lot of things he didn't know Sebastian owned,
"Oh, my creaky old bones!" Cody stretched with his hands above his head, drawing his voice lazily as he did.
Zeno smiled when he saw the irritated look Andre gave Cody. He shook his head and stood from the seat.
As others were busy taking their bags down from the luggage rack, Zeno quickly made his way to the exit, hoping to meet Sebastian before others came down from the bus.
The smooth hissing of the door was heard as Zeno made his way down; he had no luggage, so there was nothing to worry about.
He stepped down and realized that the bus had parked in a private fixed-base operator.
Different types of private jets were parked far from each other, the place was very large, and he could see a couple of staff and security personnel moving around trying to organize things.
He immediately sighted Sebastian moving toward the white private jet in front of him, but he couldn't go to him; he was surrounded by six security men, leading him up the stairs. He could only stare at his back from behind, imagining what his face looked like that morning.
"You're out already, come on, let's get going," Cody came from behind and placed his hand on Zeno's shoulder.
"Yeah...let's go..." Zeno replied and started walking with Cofy toward the private jet.
Zeno stepped into the well-appointed cabin with high ceilings and large windows that provided plenty of natural light.
The interior designs were extremely luxurious and classy. The plush leather seats, the rich wood accents, the soft, neutral-colored carpets, and the dimmable LED lighting cast a relaxing ambiance to the whole sophistication.
All the things held inside the cabin were worth staring at and admiring, but Zeno ignored it all and searched for someone instead.
He stood beside a reclineable seat and made way for others to pass.
"You want to sit here?" Jasper asked as he walked over to Zeno.
Zeno blinked, realizing he was the only one who was now standing, well, with Jasper, who was the last person to enter the jet.
"Yes, I like the window view," Zeno quickly slid toward the window side and lowered himself.
Jasper nodded with a smile. "Mind if I sit with you, then?" He questioned.
Zeno shook his head, "No, I don't mind," He replied.
Jasper nodded and lowered himself beside Zeno.
Zeno silently cleared his throat and started to look around once more.
Where had Sebastian gone?
He suddenly received a message on his phone and speedily opened it, but his face fell when he saw the name of the sender; he frowned and turned his head to look for him.
'Why is Ida texting me?' He wondered.
"Everything alright, Zeno?" Jasper asked softly.
Zeno nodded, "I'm good; I was just searching for Ida," He provided.
"Oh, he's way back there, need me to get him for you?" Jasper was already standing up but Zeno held him back.
"No, no, it's alright, I was just checking," Zeno said.
Jasper sat back down and held Zeno's hand which he had used to hold his hand back. "How have you been?" He asked, looking at Zeno.
The jet started to move before Zeno could reply, he quietly looked out of the window and stared at the passing grasses and jets.
"Zeno," Jasper called softly, drawing Zeno out of his thoughts.
"Yes..." He looked to Jasper.
"I was thinking, after the gala in Japan, you and I should go somewhere, I heard they have this special-"
"Okay," Zeno replied, smiling.
Jasper frowned, he was surprised that Zeno agreed without even letting him finish his words.
"Really? You'll go with me?" Hasper asked in shock.
Zeno nodded, "Let's leave the location as a surprise, right?" He kept smiling.
Jasper chuckled. "Sure," He nodded.
Zeno nodded and slowly turned away from him, releasing a quiet breath.
He just wanted to be left alone; if he had his way, he'd have sat in space with no one near him.
As the jet took flight, Zeno slowly lowered his head to his phone and read Ida's text.
"You won't see him. He's in his private cabin."
Zeno shut his eyes and sighed.
Sebastian was definitely ignoring him; if he hadn't, he would have found a way to get beside him; he knew Sebastian. Even if Sebastian wouldn't accept it, he sure wanted Zeno by his side at all times.
Soon, food was served to them by the air hostess, but as Zeno ate, he couldn't taste it. He's lost all sense of everything, all he wanted was Sebastian.
That mother fucked got him fucked up and abandoned him; there was no way he to let him go just like that.
It was a long flight, but after a few bathroom trips and a few naps, they finally landed.
