The airport was bustling as they approached the terminal. Their plane was a private one, with only members of the raid on the flight. Poppy’s hand was in his and she had a frown on her face.
She didn't look at him, but her thumb slowly rubbed the back of his hand. “You promised me,” she reminded him quietly. “Okay?”
They got to the loading area, and there was a group of about 15 people, all sitting quietly, waiting to board. Poppy stepped closer to Francis, her shoulder brushing his. “I don’t recognize anyone here.”
The crew looked up as they sat down, but didn’t say anything. There was a girl with short blonde hair and sharp green eyes, a solemn looking man with dark brown hair pulled back in a tight ponytail, a woman with curly grey hair and a severe smile, and a boy with curious,golden eyes and a playful smile, along with a few others.
Poppy rested her head on his shoulder, eyeing the others cautiously. The blonde girl gave them a quick smile before sliding over to speak to them. “This your first raid?”
