I pull back and try and cover up as quickly as possible as I hear simultaneous yelps from four very shocked women.

If we had managed to get here un- noticed we sure as ***** were in danger of being found out now.

“Well Andy I never knew you felt that way about me. You should let Bette know I think there may be something going on with her and Rachel we could just swap perhaps.”

Tina smiled at me as she spoke all the while staying calm, I was too embarrassed to speak so just stood there hoping she would tell me what to do; at least I had managed to redress myself. From the sounds of it things were not so quiet on the other side. All I could hear was Bette.

“Oh my ***** god Rachel I am so sorry, Andy will kill me. Then again she probably did the same to Tina so I might have to kick her ***** too. ***** I have never been so ***** embarrassed in my entire life.”

———–Rachel——–

I can’t deny that I was as shocked as ***** when the person I turned out to be kissing was Bette but her reaction had been the worst she was hollering at the top of her voice and any chance we may have had of keeping this ***** up quiet was now as distant as the chances of any of us re joining the mile high club in the near future.

I exited the toilet and saw Tina push Andy out of the other cubicle I could hear the uncontained laughter of the other passenger and most notably from Libby and Peggy. Everyone else probably thought we got lucky but those two seemed to have figured out the mishap that had occurred.

I sat down next to Andy who would not look at me and seemed to stunned to speak as I watched Tina lead Bette back to their seats. I looked over at Tina and could see that I was not the only one having trouble containing my laughter. On the other hand our wives seemed mortified they would not make eye contact with each other or with us and neither seemed to be able to control the fierce redness that had appeared on their faces as a result of the little mix up.

————Bette——–

After my initial outburst I just couldn’t speak or bring myself to look at anyone so the rest of the ride was spent with Rachel and Tina chatting across the isle as though nothing ad happened and Andy and I just staring intently out of our respective windows.

I could not have been more relived than I was when we landed and could finally get of the plane that had felt the size of a sardine can for the remainder of the flight. After getting through passport control and reclaiming our baggage I could not wait to get to the hotel. As we moved towards the exit something caught my eye.

You know in films when people are waiting at the airport with signs to surprise people well as I walked past the biggest sign in the crowd caught my eye.

Porter & Summers did you really think we would let you leave us behind?

I stopped dead causing the others to walk into me, as all I could do was point.

This was what Peggy had been planning and where her jet had been, stood before us was the rest of our family. Dana, Alice, Shane, Carmen, all the kids, Jenny and Kit all waiting for us and before long laughing at the latest trouble Andy and I had managed to cause.

———-Andy——–

I hugged Peggy thanking her for what she had done. I knew this trip would be tough but with all of them here I was sure I could face anything, even the extreme humiliation of having to hear the story of our romantic endeavours on the flight being re told again and again.

With my family around me and Rachel’s loving arm around my waist I stepped out into the London air an wished immediately I had bought an umbrella.
