( He had always promised himself he wouldn’t take this flight. The trouble was, right now, he really needed to get on this plane. His manager had booked his ticket and was expecting his arrival in LA. He couldn’t possibly stay in Australia. He had left Liam’s house in a storm of righteous indignation so he really didn’t fancy the prospect of crawling back to his big brother with his tail between his legs. But that is what he would have to do if he didn’t board this flight. )
