Wanna Ride Downtown With Me

     I hurriedly rush out of the bathroom after cleaning the dried drool from my face. I sit back down next to Nick and look at his sweatshirt. The look of worry on my face turns to horror as I see the dark grey mark of drool that I left on his sweatshirt.
      "Holy shit nick I am so sorry" Saying rushed as I stumble of my words.
      Nick just laughs and states "Its ok it was cute" With a large smile starting to form as he finishes speaking.
      I can feel my face get warm as those words leave his lips, "Oh shush drool is gross and you know it"
      "Not if its drool from a pretty girl like you" he says with a smug look on his face."By the way they ran out of pretzels, and the meals for first class so they'll compensate you." He pauses "Buttttt a deal is a deal" He says as he hands me the pretzels.
       "You remembered!" I blurt out a little too excited as I shove them in my bag. I notice him relax a bit as I put them in my bag instead of opening them and start scarfing them down. I just brush it off.
      "Do you know how long I was asleep?" I ask trying to get comfortable again but laying on him just feels right.
       "Were landing soon, we started the decent about 20 minutes ago" He says, studying my face.
       No man gets me flustered and expecially does not make me blush but Nick. He is different. Like a whole other realm of hot. He is just so cute and charismatic. Shut up Y/N he is just some random guy. You are not falling for him you barley know him.
      I make sure I have everything I took out of my bag back in it and try to get comfy for the rest of the flight. I turn off the freezing air coming from the vents and try to keep myself warm. I instinctively move closer over to Nick. I can tell that he notices.
      He lifts up the arm rest and motions for me to move closer, "Flights are always freezing, I would offer you my sweatshirt but theres drool allllll over it" He says and smirks, knowing it bothers me.
      "I said that I'm sorry!" I say acting all dramatic to match his level of drama. I scoot away and  cross my arms.
     I feel a large arm wrap around my waist and bring me close. "You're freezing and you know it" Nick says before taking off his sweatshirt and pulling it over my head.
    "You really don't need to do this" I say trying to take it off.
    "Atleast for the rest of the flight, we're landing in like 10 minutes" Nick says, shutting me down but in a sweet way.
     I finish putting it on and then settle into my seat. I put my earbuds in and turn off my phone screen. I cuddle up into the sweatshirt that is basically suffocating me. I take in the smell, trying not to be obvious. He smells wonderful, the scent of his cologne was faint but noticeable before. But now it is overwhelming in the best way possible, if I could I would drown myself in it.
    I snap back into reality and realize that we are almost on the run way. I kind of close my eyes. Taking off and landing always freaks me out a little bit. When we touch down I flinch a bit and grab onto where the tip of the arm rest was but instead, was replaced by Nicks hand. We slow down and I open my eyes.
     I let out a little nervous laugh, "Taking off and landing always makes me nervous" I say with a smile hoping he will understand.
      "The more and more I get to know you, make sure you don't forget anything silly." He says and points to my bag. I take off his sweatshirt carefully so I do not turn it inside out and lift up my own shirt in the process.
     I can tell he watches me carefully. He reaches and holds down the bottom of my shirt, gently enough to not stretch it out. I fold up his sweatshirt and hand it back to him with a smile.
    "Thank you." I say with a soft smile as we get up and exit the plane.
    I get out into the terminal at the New Orleans airport. I immediately feel the heat hit me.
      "It is so humid and hot, I'm glad i didn't keep your sweatshirt on" I say laughing while looking slightly up at him. I did not realise he was taller than me.
     "Yeah I am glad I did not put it on after you gave it back." He says in response, also laughing.
We walk out of the tunnel and find the nearest departure board. I look for the connecting flight to Austin, Texas. I find my flight number and see what time it deoarts and my heart drops, one of my worse fears. My flight was canceled.
   "My flight was canceled" I say as my voice cracks. I want to break down and cry, I have never had a flight canceled on me before.
   "Hey hey hey its ok its ok, what flight is it?" He says as he turns to face me, he rubs my arm.
   "Flight 218 for Austin" I manage to get out while keeping the tears in my eyes.
   "Wait. Are you serious?" He spins to the board. "Shit you're right. That's my connecting flight too." He says while running his hand through his hair.
    I immediately grab out my phone and look for flights for tomorrow.
   "There is a storm tonight, that's why it's canceled. No flights are leaving from here besides a couple." I say stressed.
    He puts his hand on my lower back and leads me over to some chairs. We sit down and I find flights. I am so stressed out. Where am I going to sleep. Places in the airport close at night so where will I get food. A hundred thoughts are running through my head which are interrupted by Nick speaking.
     "Wanna book a hotel room for tonight? So neither of us have to stay in this grimey airport over night?" He says, studying my face.
    "Yeah sure, as long as you aren't going to kill me" I laugh, trying to lighten the mood. "There's a flight leaving at 12pm tomorrow. I can book us tickets if you pay for the room."
    "I'm not a serial killer but if you snore I might become one" he says in response. Making me laugh. "I'll be forever greatful if you book those tickets" he finishes.
     Immediately my anxiety disappears as we walk through the airport to the luggage carousel. I feel safe with him, he is like a body gaurd but makes me feel noticed. I cant fall for him. It is just a coincidence we sat next to eachother, and our flights to the same place were canceled. It is all just a coincidence. Right?
    His luggage comes before mine, it is all black, like half of the luggage here. I notice mine, it is pink and sparkly, I have had it since I was in middle school. I struggle to pull it off but manage to get it after a couple tugs.
    "There should be hotels near here, wanna just find the nearest one?" I say, not wanting to go too far away from the airport.
     "Sounds good to me" he says with a smile.
      I walk close to him as we locate the exit and leave. As soon as we leave the humidity hits me like a brick. It is awful. I can withstand it being hot outside, but not it being humid and hot. I can feel my skin getting sticky with every step we take.
    "I don't think I will ever come back here if it is always this hot and humid." I say basically ready to collapse from the heat.
    He laughs "Why are you going to Austin then? It isn't this humid but it is really hot."
    "You make a good point Nick. But I am moving there and I have air-conditioning in my new house." I say as we walk into a hotel. I let Nick talk because he is the one paying for the hotel considering I bought the flights.
    "One room with two beds please?" He says to the lady at the front counter. She glances at us but just clicks away at her computer.
     "For how long sir?" She asks in a customer service cheery voice.
     "One night please." He says in response.
    I notice how polite he is with workers. He even thanked the flight attendants when we left the plane. I always do it but he did it before me. I have never met anyone who does that. By the time I finish my mind rambling I feel him pick up my luggage and hand me the room keys.
   "I'll hold these while you lead me to the elevator" he says smiling.
   "Sounds like a deal to me." I say with a smile in return.
