allira's povchloe and i both sit on the airplane seats, looking out the window. we were waiting for take-off. i scroll on pinterest, looking at photos of paris and the effiel tower. i loved the sight of paris on pictures, it would be even better in person.
"buckle your belt." i say leaning over to chloe. she nods and touches her seatbelt. after a minute or two, the plane angles upwards. "oh shit" chloe whispers. i grab her hand a laugh. she closes her eyes and peeks open one, "is it done?" she asks me. i laugh. "yes, its straight now in the air." i smile and unclench her hand.

my eyes were black, i was sleeping. suddenly the plane started to shake and chloe pushes me, nearly pushing me off the side. "allira, what is happening" she says seriously. i laugh, "turbulence" i close my eyes snd try to sleep again, i was only asleep for an hour, there was 7 hours left on the flight. i needed to rest. i sigh and black out once again.chloe pushes me - once again - "the plane is landing." she says grunting closing her tray. "huh?! i slept for 7 hours!?" i scream a bit too loudly. she nods and giggle. i quickly run my fingers through my hair, acting like chloe for a minute. my makeup was running down my face. oh shit i look disgusting and feel disgusting.
chloe looks at me and gasps. i roll my eyes and grab a makeup wipe from her bag. i start wiping off my running mascara and clean my eyeshadow. "please buckle your seatbelts." the pilot says on the intercom. i start tightening my seatbelt to make sure its secure. "ALLIRA HELP" chloe pushes me. "I CAN'T TIGHTEN IT!" she yells at me. i grab her seatbelt and tighten it for her. "there, it was just stuck" i chuckle.
as the plane lands, chloe had her eyes shut once again. i laugh. "its going to be OK" chloe whispers to herself, i cover my mouth with my hand trying not to laugh. the plane wheels touch the runway floor. chloe sighs in relief and i watch her open her eyes. i smile. paris. it already looked wonderful.
i could barely see out the window, chloe had the window shut. it was the best part of a plane and of course she closed it. she hated heights i don't even know why she sat on the window side.
——————-"france, paris." the pilot says to the whole plane. i get up from my seat and once again, chloe's seatbelt was playing up. she screams pulling me back into my seat, nearly crying. i laugh. "what??" i say, questioning her. "IM STUCK!!" she screams at me and sobs.
i slip her out of the seatbelt. it wouldn't get undone. her fear was planes, and her worst fear was getting stuck on a plane. i chuckle as we walk out the plane door into a paris airport. it looked cleaner then europe.
we walk around for ages, trying to find the exit. chloe was running around like a fucking maniac. i guess she really wanted to see paris.
chloe and i finally find the exit of the airport and we step onto another country, france..
——————
a girl comes up to us. she had blackish curly hair and it was tied up in a high ponytail. probably hurting the rest of her hair. i chuckle. "hi!" her accent was heavy. "i'm aurora!" she says holding her hand out, we both shake it."hey, i'm chloe and this is allira" chloe says and i smile politely. i don't really know if we should make friends in paris, they might not be in touch when we leave..
"nice to meet you!" i say smiling. she smiles back, "would you happen to know where this hotel is?" i say holding out directions that i couldn't understand. "follow me" she says and laughs.was she our first friend? we're we capable of making friends, i honestly didn't know. we probably seemed so weird to other people. especially girls.
it was the beginning of our second country. i smile at myself, chloe watching and smiling also.
