No one's POV.:
Stray Kids were doing their first ever world tour and the members couldn't be more excited. It wasn't until a few locations in, that they noticed just how straining the frequent plane rides actually were. Travelling to different cities and countries every few days and playing concerts till late into the night would have exhausted anyone but Felix had been struggling the most today. They had a concert the previous night and instead of staying at a hotel for the night and continuing to the next country the next morning, they had gone from the venue straight to the airport. Still hyped from their performance, nobody really noticed the Aussie growing quiet. It wouldn't have surprised anyone anyways, they were all tired. With their muscles burning from dancing so much, Felix could also feel his head pound with the beat he had been dancing too. He was annoyed, they wouldn't be performing the next evening anyways, so why couldn't they just stay here for the night and take a flight the next day? At least that meant he could take a day to rest, though resting would make him feel guilty about losing his chance to explore a city he had never visited before.

The had gone through all the security checks and were waiting to board the plane. Hopefully everything would go smoothly and they'd make it to their next location without any delays, not because they would be late for a performance but because they all wanted to settle down at a hotel and sleep in a proper bed. While they waited, Felix leaned over and rested his head on Seungmin's shoulder, who softly patted his head before resting his own on Felix and closing his eyes. The two had almost fallen asleep when Chan shook them awake, telling them they were ready to go on the plane now. Seungmin yawned but nodded sleepily and shuffled over to Hyunjin, holding onto the older's arm, afraid to get lost in his sleepy haze. Felix tried getting up to but his legs felt a bit shaky and he had to hold on to his hyung, who wrapped his arm around the young dancer's shoulders to steady him. "You went all in today, didn't ya mate?", the leader chuckled and Felix only groaned in response. He really outdid himself earlier.

It felt like an eternity till they had finally made it to their seats on the plane. Collapsing into his seat, Felix buried his head in his hands. He wasn't sure if the headache was brought on by the exhaustion, the bright stage lights or the loud music. Probably a combination from all of the above and he didn't know what he could do about it except for going to sleep as soon as they were in the air. He barely paid the safety instructions any attention, having heard the same over and over again multiple times over the last few weeks. What annoyed him the most was the noise, why did aircrafts have to be this loud and why couldn't that baby a few rows behind him stop screaming like it was being murdered right there? Felix had never been this appreciative of his soundproof earphones before, putting them in as soon as the cabin crew's announcement ended. He really thought he could sleep peacefully now but not long after their departure, they were served a late dinner. It was almost one at night, why did they have to wake him for a meal that wouldn't even taste good?

The Aussie tried to push his annoyance away and forced himself to eat. As expected, it didn't taste too great but he hadn't had dinner earlier and he knew if he didn't get any food into his system, his muscles would be even sorer the next day. Forcing himself to have at least half of his meal, Felix let Jisung who sat next to him have the other half. The rapper surprisingly liked the food a lot more than he did, so he didn't mind having more than one serving. He also took the other's tray onto his own table, so Felix could fold his table up and go to sleep. The dancer gave his twin a grateful smile and put in his earphones, closing his eyes and drowning out the noise. Surprisingly, sleep didn't come as easily as he had expected considering how tired he was. Not long after his meal, his stomach had started to bother him a bit and the cold of the air conditioning made him shiver every once in a while. Feeling a light weight on him, the Aussie blinked his eyes open and flinched at the light. When his eyes adjusted, he noticed that Jisung had spread his sweat-jacket over his upper body. He looked over at the rapper and shot him a grateful smile before closing his eyes again to Jisung rubbing his arm.
