"I'm burning and it's because of you."
Three years ago one decision tore them apart before they even could be together. Now they meet again. With memories of the past and sweet promises of the future the world doesn't seem so bad. But the greed and...

Mix grabbed Earth's hand tightly, squeezing it harder and harder, digging his nails deeper and deeper.
He gulped down. He shouldn't have sat next to the window.
Well, it looked like Mix was afraid of flying.
The airplane took off and he shut his eyes.
The ground was disappearing under them and the airplane was getting higher and higher towards the sun.
"Are you okay, doll?" Earth chuckled and leaned to Mix's cheek, giving him a soft peck. "Afraid?"
Mix nodded, his eyes still closed.
"It's okay, I'm here, I'm with you," Earth squeezed Mix's thigh reassuringly with his free hand. "We are safe. It's just a giant iron bird in the sky. Birds belong to the sky, right?"
"Not the iron ones," Mix mumbled.
Earth smiled, "well, we are still flying. Open your eyes, doll. You don't have to look out of the window. I am a better view anyway."
Embarrassingly...that made Mix laugh. He slowly opened first only one eye and then both of them. He looked at Earth, "you are really too much sometimes."
Earth shrugged, "come on, just say I'm funny."
"Never! Keep dreaming about that."
"Why dream when I have my dream right beside me?"
"Oh my god," Mix groaned.
"I'm funny and I know how to flirt...I'd say, I'm a full package," Earth proudly smirked.
"Please tell me that you are doing all of this just to distract me from the fact that we are actually kilometres above the ground."
"Excuse you?" Earth put his hand on his chest, "all I'm doing is stating facts!"
"I can't believe I'm stuck with loving you," Mix shook his head.
Earth softly smiled and pecked Mix's lips, "I love you too, doll. I'm glad you feel better."
"Well, you do have a unique way to make me feel better," Mix whispered.
"I can make you feel even better," Earth whispered back, sliding his hand from Mix's thigh higher.
Mix slapped Earth's hand, "we are on the airplane!"
"I'm not doing anything bad," Earth put on a clueless face, "I just wanna give you a massage."
"You know what? I'm not afraid of flying anymore. I'm afraid of you now," Mix rolled his eyes.
Earth chuckled and slid his hand back down to Mix's knee where he left it resting. "Ok ok, I'll stop. It's gonna be a long flight though. You might wanna sleep through it."
