"Wife."

I slowly open my eyes as I felt a warm fingers caressing my cheeks. I think I fell asleep when the plane took off. The last thing I remembered was leaning on Ethan's shoulder while we were talking about random things. I look at him to find him staring deep into my eyes.

"I love your eyes." I suddenly blurted out. "Did I said that before?" I lazily smile at him as I reach the spot near his eyes. He put his hand above mine and chuckles.

"You always say that." He said lowly. "But I love hearing it." I smile at him sweetly as I lean on him.

"Ladies and gentlemen..." I startled when Ashton's voice filled in the plane. "Once again, this is Ashton Madriaga, your pilot for today. We will land in five minutes so please refrain from standing and put your f*cking seatbelts." He chuckled.

"F*ck yeah!" I flinched as I heard Eric's comment. I wonder if he really would say that whenever he fly a plane. Then, I heard multiple laughs from our friends.

"Ang ganda ng boses nya." Anya murmurs. "Kahit yata magmura sya, ang ganda pa din pakinggan. In love na yata ako." She said dreamily. But of course, there is always one person who will ruin her day.

"Stop your illusions, nerd frog." Klaus said in a bored tone which made Anya sulk.

"Satan Klaus." She said in a gagged tone.

"Thanks, man." Ethan fist bumped with Ashton.

"Anytime dude."

"Sure ka bang ayaw mong magbakasyon?" Liam asked.

"Nah." He shrugged. "I have important things to do." His face became serious. No more playfulness.

"I understand." Liam nods.

"Good luck dude." Blake and Klaus fist bumped on him, too.

"See you around, Ash." Eric tapped his back. I don't know if it's just me or I saw something in their face. It seems that they had an understanding on something.

"Yeah." His lips turn upward. Then his gaze fell on me. "Anya, Winter Ysabella."

"Good bye, Ashton." I said politely as Ethan wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Ikaw din ba ang magsusundo samen pabalik sa Manila?" Anya keeps giggling which made Ashton chuckles.

"I regret to say that I'm not, Anya."

"Oh..." She frowned.

"Tsk. Sige na, Ash. Shoo." Klaus suddenly grabs Anya's hand and drag her somewhere. I heard her groans.

"Ano ba yang kamay mo?!" And they started arguing again while walking away.

"Those two." Eric chuckles.

"They look good together. Well then, I'll go ahead." Ashton shook his head. "Enjoy your vacation." He grins and walks like a boss into the plane. That made me wonder on something.

"How old is he?"

"He is two years older than us." Blake answered. "Probably twenty."

"Really? He is a pilot already?" I was amused. I never thought that at a young age, you can be a pilot. "That's amazing. I like him." Maybe next time, if ever I see him again, I will interview him. That thought made me smile.

"You're mine." My smile faded as I felt Ethan's dark aura. He looks furious. I glance at the others and got confuse as their face look pale. Why was that?
