13. Flight

YOOYEON AND SEOYEON HAD GONE THROUGH security in the airport and were now waiting for their flight.

"Seoyeon-ah, have you eaten?" Yooyeon asks, placing a hand over Seoyeon's, which lay on the hand rest of a chair.

Seoyeon shook her head and turned her hand around, clasping it together with Yooyeon's. "Is this your way of telling me you're hungry?" She asked with a teasing smile.

Yooyeon shrugged, trying her best to hide her smile. "Maybe it is, maybe it isn't..."

The younger girl chuckled and looked around, searching for somewhere to eat. "Okay. What do you feel like?"

They ended up sitting in a small restaurant and had pancakes for breakfast. Of course, they had to take a few pictures before eating it all in just fifteen minutes.

"Ahh, that was so good. Oh my god, it was so good." Yooyeon sighed loudly, placing a hand on her stomach and leaning against the back of her chair.

Seoyeon smiled at her from across the table, "You've got quite the stomach, haven't you?"

"Mm." Yooyeon could barely speak as she was so full, "I'm taking this as an opportunity to eat whatever i want for the weekend."

Seoyeon's smile faltered for a moment and her sympathy was portrayed through her eyes. "I told you, you can eat whatever you want when you're with me, okay? You don't need to eat everything all in two days. I don't want you sick."

Although her words were sweet and reassured her, Yooyeon couldn't help but feel guilty. For some reason, just the mere fact that she felt like she had to eat everything she could just now made her feel that way.

She realised that, now, she had her whole life to try new things without restrictions. She pursed her lips and nodded, "Yeah, you're right."

Seoyeon knew that Yooyeon loved to eat, but was never allowed to eat more than her parents allowed her to. It made her want to give her everything that she could.

"I think we should start heading towards the gate now." Yooyeon mentioned as she checked her phone. It was quarter to nine, and their flight was at just five past.

Seoyeon nodded and replied, "Yeah, good idea."

They paid for their meals, both put on their jackets and lifted their bags before heading out of the restaurant.

Naturally, Seoyeon slipped her hand into Yooyeon's as they walked, claiming that her hands were cold. Yooyeon didn't believe her, but didn't complain. It's not like she didn't want to hold her hand herself, anyways.

"Got your passport ready?" Yooyeon asked as they approached the gate.

"Mhm." Seoyeon hummed in response and held up her passport.

The pair made it onto the jetway and into the plane, no bother. But when the pair sat down in their business class seats, Yooyeon found it a little hard to settle herself in.

As she shifted in her seat, Seoyeon looked over with a small frown, "Are you alright, Yooyeon-ah?"

Yooyeon didn't answer, but placed her hand ontop of Seoyeon's. The plane was about to lift off into the air and she gave the hand a small squeeze.

Seoyeon tried her best not to laugh, but hold her hand tightly in reassurance. "It'll only be a second." She said.

When the plane was in the air, Yooyeon let out a small sigh, her shoulders relaxing and her head hitting the chair.

"You don't like lift offs?" Seoyeon asked, a small smile on her face.

Yooyeon shook her head, "I don't now." She sighed again, "Um, i don't think i told you, but i've, uh, never been on a plane before."

Seoyeon's eyebrows raised, "Yeah, you didn't. You should've told me." She nudged her in the arm and then fiddled with a few things infront of her.

She brought over a lolipop and handed it to Yooyeon, "Things like these always help me when i'm traveling."

Yooyeon took and unwrapped it, placing it in her mouth, "Thank you."

"Mm." Seoyeon hummed in response as she placed a lolipop into her own mouth.

Throughout the flight, they watched a movie together, spent time by themselves listening to music, and sleeping.

When it was announced that they were to land in five minutes, Seoyeon decided to wake up Yooyeon, who's head rested on her shoulder.

She poked her cheek gently, "Yooyeon-ah."

Yooyeon stirred awake and blinked slowly, raising her head from Seoyeon's shoulder. "Are we here?" She asked, placing her hands against her face.

"Mhm." Seoyeon smiled at her lightly and began placing her things back into her bag.

"Sorry if that was uncomfortable for you." Yooyeon mentioned, doing the same as Seoyeon, finding her belongings and putting them into her own bag.

Seoyeon shook her head, "It was actually really comfy."

"Really?" Yooyeon asked, a small smile on her face, "Me too."

"Mm, you look very cute when you sleep." Seoyeon laugh, eventually zipping up her bag.

Yooyeon didn't answer, but the evident blush on her face was enough for Seoyeon to smile.

Through the speakers of the plane, the pilot announced that they would be landing now.

Automatically, Yooyeon reached for Seoyeon's hand. Seoyeon looked over and gave her a reassuring smile, squeezing her hand gently.

When the plane landed, lots of people rushed off. However, Yooyeon and Seoyeon waited behind for a moment to not get too caught in the crowd.

As Yooyeon was in the aisle seat, she lead the way. From behind, Seoyeon took her hand to not get lost.

Even when they reached the airport, their hands stayed intertwined. As they entered, a gush of warm, humid air hit them like a truck.

"Holy... It's so warm." Seoyeon muttered, suddenly unzipping her zip up.

Yooyeon chuckled, "It's actually one of the best times to visit Hong Kong. From September to November, it's less humid but the most dry throughout the year." She mentioned, looking around the airport in awe.

"Huh, really?" Seoyeon asked, also looking around.

"Yep." She replied. "This place is totally my style. Its so big, but really simple and clean." She turned her head to look at Seoyeon and gave her a thumbs up.

Seoyeon raised an eyebrow and laughed, "Sure."
