"Now boarding flight 120 to Dublin first class," said the lady over the airport speakers. I can tell she hated her job and just wanted to leave.

As I got up to get in line, my passport fell out of my lap. I swear I need to stop forgetting that I have things on my lap. As I bent down to get it, I saw a pair of hands pick it up. Ugh please don't let this person be stealing it. I'm so close to living my dream. I stood back up and saw the person who's hands were holding my passport.

He was tall, maybe 5'9. He had light brown hair and beautiful green eyes. His light brown hair was covered by  a grey Neff beanie. He had beautiful, full lips that hid his green braces. He looked so perfect. He kinda had a baby face, but you could tell he was a lot older than he looked.

"Um, miss?" he said with a questioning look on his face.

"I'm sorry. What?" I  practically stuttered. I didn't even realize he was talking to me. I was too busy staring at his beautiful, angelic face.

"Is this your passport?" He asked. He had a British accent. Which made him even more attractive.

"Uh, yeah. Thanks." I gave him a small smile.

"Nice shirt by the way," he said.

"Huh," I looked down at my shirt, "Oh. Thanks. You into them?" I asked him. How in the hell did I forget I was wearing my Such Strange Arts shirt.

"Yeah. My cousin has actually met them a few times. She's a huge fan of the drummer." he said. At some point we had gotten in line.

"Cool. I'm actually going to see them this weekend with my best friends. I'm actually staying at  her house for the next month. My friend is a big fan of the drummer as well. I prefer Jake, the singer, to be honest." I said to him in a fangirl tone.

"By any chance is your friends' name Lois?" he asked.

"Yeah. Why?" I  said completely confused.

"She's my cousin. Is she picking you up too?" he smiled.

"Are you serious? That's so cool! And what do you mean "too". I thought it was just me she was picking up?" I said.

"Guess she didn't  tell you she was picking me up too," he said.

"Guess she didn't." I said. We were almost past the people that checked our tickets and passports when I realized I haven't even told him my name yet.

"By the way, I'm Tatiana." I said with a small smile.

"Beautiful name. I'm Alan." he replied, I just stood there with red cheeks and a goofy smile.

"Next," the lady in the red vest said.

I walked up to her and gave her my passport and ticket. She scanned the ticket and looked at me to make sure it was me in the picture of my passport. She gave me my belongings back and I stepped into the small tunnel that lead to the plane. Not to long after, Alan was behind me.

"So where are you sitting?" Alan asked.

"16A" I replied.

"Awesome. I got 16B. What about the next flight?" he smiled.

"9A. Another window seat. You?" I asked.

"9B. Wow this is getting a bit weird. Don't you think?" he asked

"Yeah but I don't mind sitting with you. Gives us more of a chance to get to know each other." I said.

"Totally. So what other bands do you like besides Such Strange Arts?" he asked.

As we took our seats, I started to think of all the bands I listen to. I scooted over to my seat and Alan sat right next to me. That's when I noticed we were the last ones to board the plane. At least no one else would be joining us for the flight. I hated talking to random people I didn't know. Well Alan was different.

for the next four hours we talked about almost everything. It started off with bands and ended with childhood memories. We had a lot more in common than I though we would. After hours of talking, we fell asleep until Alan woke me up telling me that we would be landing soon. I put all of my things away and got ready for the landing. After landing, me and Alan looked for where our next flight will be at.

When we arrived at the gate, we saw that there was a McDonalds across from I and got some food. By the time we got our food, it was time to board the next plane.

When we took our seats, I asked the flight attendant if this plane had Wi-Fi. Apparently they did. When we got to a certain amount of miles, I pulled out my laptop and connected to the Wi-Fi. I opened up my Skype account and messaged Lois to see if she could Skype.

"Gonna Skype her I see." I heard Alan say.

"Yeah. I was actually gonna try and prank her or something. Got any ideas?" I asked.

"I have one if you're up for it," he replied.

"Let's hear it," I smiled.

"Well, we can pretend we are dating and have a smooch or two just to make it realistic. What do you think?" he asked me.

I thought for a moment and then agreed to do it. Lois is gonna be so pissed when she finds out this was just a prank.

"We should call her and start making out just before she answers to make it more realistic. If you want to that is." I said shyly.

"No, Yeah, that's a great idea." he said with red cheeks.

When Lois sent the message saying I could Skype her, Alan and I were giggling in excitement. I hit the video call button and Alan smashed his lips into mine. We started off slowly until we heard Lois's voice. The moment Alan heard Lois's voice, he licked my bottom lip asking for entrance, which I gladly granted. As our tongues fought for dominance, we heard Lois's gasp. We heard Lois call our names and we immediately stopped and said sorry.

"Alan why are you making out with my best friend?" she questioned.

"Because we are dating. I didn't know this was the Tatiana you were talking about." he answered.

"How long has this been going on?" she said through gritted teeth.

"A week and a half." I said this time.

"And you didn't tell me about him." she practically yelled.

"I'm sorry. I just wanted to make sure our relationship was gonna be more than some stupid two week thing." I said in defense.

"Okay . I guess.," she said. I could tell she was mad but she acted like it didn't bother her much.

"So what time does your plane land?" She asked after a few moments of silence.

"We should be landing in about 30 minutes. Plus we still have to get our luggage and everything. So it should be another hour before we get to you guys. Go ahead and tell my mum to start driving this way," Alan answered.

"sure thing. So I'll see you guys in an hour?" She asked.

"Totally," Alan and I said simultaneously. We looked at each other and giggled.

"Well I got to go. I'll see you guys later. Bye," she said before she ended the call.

"Do you think she's gonna be mad when she finds out this is a prank?" I asked Alan.

"Probably. But she'll get over it." He answered and gave me a big , encouraging smile.

For the rest of the of the plane ride we drank the drinks that were given to us by the attendants and planned the answers to the questions that were yet to come to "us".
