Justins POV:
I didn’t know what to do, I’ve never had a problem with flying before, I’ve experienced turbulence before and storms but nothing like this. Selena was shaking in my arms and I hated feeling like there was nothing I could do to make sure she’d be safe. I heard the pilots voice through the speakers overhead. I didn’t really listen to what he was saying, I was just running scenarios in my head. Like what if we crashed and we landed in water, how would I keep Sel alive. Or if we crashed how would I make sure she’d survive, all these horrible things I never ever thought about before were running my head. Ways to keep the girl I love the most safe.
I leaned my head on her shoulder.
“I love you Selena” I whispered in her ear still keeping my head on her shoulder.
I felt her turn her head and rest her forehead against mine, she let out a big sigh.
“I love you too Justin.” She whispered.
Then the plane dropped. I got that free falling feeling in my stomach, everything was happening too fast. Selena screamed and so did Alfredo. Kenny was screaming every swear word he knew. I didn’t make a sound, I shut my eyes and held on to Selena tight. This was it. We were going to crash and all I cared about now was how to keep Selena safe.
The plane was shaking like it was just scrap metal in the air. I was expecting the plane to fall apart all together the way it was shaking. Selena was crying into my arms now and Alfredo was still screaming. I started to feel light headed like I was going to pass out. I fought to keep myself conscious knowing I needed to keep Selena safe.
“The planes got to even out! IT’S GOT TOO!” Alfredo screamed and It snapped me out of my trance.
“It will! Were going to be okay!” I screamed back breaking my silence.
I heard Selena whispering something, I tilted my ear towards her mouth trying to make out what she was saying. She was praying in Spanish. No, this can’t be happening. We’re going to be okay. Everything’s going to be okay, I just got her back in my life. We can’t be torn away from each other so quickly. I squeezed Selena even tighter than I was, and I put my head down; I started praying for the plane to even out.
“No fucking way! LOOK OUT THE WINDOW OMG! HA HAA fucking Christ!” Alfredo screamed. But I didn’t understand the plane was still shaking?
I lifted my head and opened my eyes, Alfredo had turned on the flashlight app on his phone and light up the whole cabin. I looked around and saw nothing on the plane was shaking. Then I turned to Selena, it was her. She was shaking so hard in my arms I thought it was the plane. She was still sitting there with her eyes closed praying in Spanish. I turned my head to look out the window and there were city lights right underneath us, they couldn’t have been more than 1000 feet away.
“We evened out…” I breathed out. “Were okay! Selena baby look, were okay!” I said trying to shake her out of her state.
She finally opened her eyes and made eye contact with me. Makeup was running down both of her cheeks, there was still so much fear in her eyes. All I could do was point out the window to make her turn her head. When she finally did and saw that we had evened out she started to cry again, she turned and buried her face in my chest sobbing.
Just then the co-pilot came out of the front cabin
“Is everyone okay??” He asked concerned examining all of our faces.
“Yes, were all alright. Just shaken up.” Kenny answered for all of us.
“Alright, were landing in about 4 minutes so just sit tight guys.” He said as he closed the door.
