Ruikasa - Theater Kids to Boyfriends?

Vacation Time! P1

 Rui's suitcase closed as the zipper glided across the zipper track. "I think we are ready now."

We were flying off to New York for the week. We already had passports ready and our luggage was almost packed.

The plane was set to take off at 10:00, and it was only 7:30. It would take only 30 minutes to get to the airport, so we had some time.

"We have time, Fufu. Do you want to get our stuff situated and then hang out at the airport?" Rui suggested.

"Sure." It didn't sound like a bad plan. We could just get food and stick around until our flight.

"Oi. Do you have everything packed?" He reached over to my suitcase and opened it. Inside were the basic things I needed. Toothbrush, medicine, clothes, nothing special.

"I think." I stared at the luggage.

Rui pulled out a plushie. It was of him. He put it in my suitcase. "I found a Wonderland X Showtime claw machine yesterday. I got plushies of you and I." He opened his suitcase and revealed a plushie of me.

We pulled up at the airport. Rui found an available parking spot and pulled in.

"We have arrived." He smiled and got out, and I soon followed. "Let's get our luggage and go in." I nodded as we went to the trunk.

I picked up my luggage, but I nearly toppled over. He caught me swiftly.

He set me down and put the suitcase on its wheels. "Be more careful. I don't want you getting hurt."

"Okay." I was just glad that his reflexes were good.

Rui got his luggage and extended the handle. He grabbed the handle with one hand and grabbed my hand with the other. I took that as a hint to start walking, so I grabbed my suitcase and let him lead me.

We held hands as we entered the airport. The building was busy, and people rushed in and out. I gripped his hand tighter to not loose him.

"Let's get our bags checked. Then we can hang out." Rui suggested. I nodded in agreement.

With my approval, he led me to the baggage center. The lines were long and windy, so we had to be extra careful to not loose each other. America was a long way away, and we couldn't just go on separate planes. It was too risky.

"I hate waiting." Rui complained. "It would be so much easier if we just had a private jet that could fly us to New York." I laughed at the thought.

"Maybe if Wonderland X Showtime becomes popular enough! Wouldn't it be cool to own a jet for ourselves?" He smiled at my excitement.

"Nothing's impossible when you're our trope leader~" Rui sang playfully. "After all, the sky's the limit when you have the most handsome and charming leader in the world."

My cheeks became hot and my heart rate increased. "R-Rui!" You would think that I would be over getting flustered since he was my fiancé, but that clearly wasn't the case.

"Fufu~ you really are adorable." Oh, Rui. So good at flirting. I wished that I could flirt back, but I had no idea how.

That's it! I'll learn how to flirt.

"A few minutes until we take off." I sighed. "And it'll take almost 13 hours to get there." We were flying over the Pacific Ocean and almost all of America. It was no surprise that it would take a long time.

We were all prepared, everything but our carry-ons were given to the staff. The both of us passed through countless metal detectors and security checks, and thankfully we passed them all. We then sat in the waiting area.

"10:00 flight to New York, America, please start boarding." That was us.

Rui and I held hands and carried our carry/on luggage with our free hands. There were a decent amount of people on our flight, but thankfully we had a window seat. He let me take it so I didn't have to worry about anyone getting into my personal space. He probably didn't want another fundraiser incident.

"Here, Fufu." He grabbed my bag and put it in the top compartment along with his. "It's good now." He smiled, slightly proud. We sat down in our seats.

"It'll be a long flight. We'll almost definitely have to sleep at some point. Maybe 6 hours in?" Rui nodded.

"Sounds good."

Rui was dozing on my shoulder. He looked slightly uncomfortable due to the rough seating, but he still managed to sleep.

Thankfully the other man in our row wasn't an issue. He appeared to be an American who is retuning to his homeland. He also appeared to be watching a movie, but I couldn't tell from my seat.

The trip was extremely boring. 4 hours in and I already ran out of entertainment.

"Mm." Rui mumbled, but he was still asleep. "I do... marry..." I was stunned. He was dreaming about marriage? I looked down at my ring. We were engaged. It would come sometime down the line.

I got myself thinking about random things. If I gave Rui a nickname, what would it be? Wait — he once asked me to refer to him as babe. Should I call him that? I would be able to see him flustered.

Turbulence suddenly woke Rui up. "Ack!" He exclaimed, jerking forward in his seat along with multiple other members. I pulled him back.

I thought it would be the perfect time to use my new nickname. "I gotcha, babe." He sat in a stunned silence, his embarrassment evident. His eyes widened slightly. Now it was my turn to flirt. "You look cute when you are flustered." I failed miserably, but his face got noticeably redder. Hah, flirting is fun.

It seemed that we forgot about the other man in our row. We tried restraining ourselves for the first part of the trip, but gave up.

"We're here!" I cheered as we stepped out of the American airport. We already knew English, so that wasn't an issue.

"Where do you wish to go first, Fufu?" Rui asked me as he pulled out a map of New York.

"We don't have any plans for today, so let's explore a bit after we check into the hotel." I smiled as I looked out to the city. It was beautiful.

"Sounds good." He smiled once he noticed that I was smiling. "This'll be a fun week!"
