"welcome aboard, ladies and gentleman. this is your captain speaking. before we take our take off, I would like to thanked for every passengers to choose our flight Boeing 777-385,"

I heard the captain speaking from the speaker while the flight attendant check our cabins before shutting it close. I smiled at the window while hearing the captain speaking. That would be me someday.

"Eren," I turned my head to Levi who's sitting next to me and near to the corridor.

"yes?" I answered his calls. While I was looking to his eyes, he was avoiding my gaze. "hey, look at me,"

He turned to me with furrowed eyebrows. I sighed when I saw his bags under his eyes, it just getting bigger each time passing. Not to mention that his skin became paller too. Poor him.

He lean in to my ears and whispered, "I'm not a big fan of air crafts,"

I let out a soft chuckle before feeling the plane moving backward which it'll fly soon, but I shake the feeling of it before looking at Levi and send him a smile. "hey, don't worry about it. it's not as bad as you think it is,"

"is it?" he asked.

I nodded. "yes! I'm telling you, Levi. once you feel the excitement trough your veins when the plane fly, you wanted to feel that again and again,"

He furrowed his eyebrows before lean back to his seat. "I don't want to be a pilot like you, Jaeger,"

"well, smart-ass, I'm not asking you to join the pilot dreamers," I chuckled before poke his nose. "I'm telling you to enjoy the-,"

"genieße den flug," says the german flight attendant who's interrupting my words but then I smiled again before looking at Levi.

"you heard her," I said.

He is still looking at me with an unsure look. I guess my speech earlier isn't slapping his ass yet. My dad told me that when I was 8 and it hits me like a fucking truck. After that, I wanted to be a pilot. I don't understand why the words isn't affecting his mind.

I looked down to my lap while thinking of something to persue Levi that air crafts isn't as bad as he thinks it is until I feel the plane turning around to the run-way, getting ready for our take off.

I smiled looking at the sun shining bright from the other side before looking to Levi who's looking... terrified? Is he scared of height? I feel bad for not helping my best friend to shake the feeling about air crafts. I need to think of something before the plane fly. But what could it be? What's something that comes from flying? Birds... skies... skies... skies had something on it! Moon! Sun! Stars! That's it!

"Levi," I called made him quickly glance at me but I was quick to hold his hand to mine. He looked surprised at first but then I send him a reassure smile which made his eyes widen for a second. "have you ever see the clouds from above before?"

He shook his head before rising an eyebrow at me. I send him a chuckle before leaning in to his ear and whispered, "it feels like surfing in the clouds,"

"surfing?" he asks. "we're up and far from the ground. are you retarded or something?"

I chuckled before intertwining our fingers which made him jumped a bit while I feel my heart beat beating faster than it should.

I wasn't really paying attention at what I was doing. Shit. I don't even know when I'm falling for him.

"just... stay calm and-," I looked to the window and I felt the whole plane fly to the air and the clouds covering their view. "look! clouds, Levi!"

He furrowed his eyebrows before looking at the window next to mine. I lean my body to the my seat and allowing Levi to look at view. When the sun hits his eyes, I realized something. My eyes grew bigger each time I see those sparkles in his eyes. His eyes were very pretty, beautiful if I could say.

His eye color isn't very normal, they're special

His eye color isn't very normal, they're special. I always thought his eyes were grey and I never see someome who had grey-ish eye color before I met him. His eyes were clear blue. I felt myself shaking in my seat. He is very pretty. I want... I want to... No! I can't! He's my best friend! I can't just... do all those things to him, even though he is very attractive.

He looked at me when I shifted in my seat and I never been so down for anyone before. His intense yet pretty eyes looked at me and I just can't help but shit myself.

"you alright?" he asks.

I looked away while covering my mouth and said, "I'm fine,"

Suddenly, Connie started to sniffing hard like he was a dog cop on a rescue. He was sitting with Sasha and the both of them sniffing very hard until they have the urge to stand up from their seat to meet ours. I never get them sometimes, I never even wanted to be near them in the first place. They're weird and scary.

"wait... wait! I smell something," Sasha said while holding a hand up while looking at us.

"I definately catching up with something- oh wait! here it goes!" Connie said with a smile on his face.

I frowned before crossing my arms. "I swear, if you guys are going to fart-"

Sasha looked at Connie with a drastatic way with huge clouds under her nose which made Levi and I jump in surprise. "what did you smell? a food? an animal? an object?"

"something... like... a status... but no... this is different," Connie explains. "it smells even better than Jean's love for that girl from other class,"

"was it good?" Sasha asks.

"it... was... wonderful!" Connie exclaimed before smiling at Sasha then to us.

"uhh...," I raised an eyebrow. "what... did you smell there... uhh... buddy?"

"I smell... gay," Connie answers with a smile.

"holy shit, I do too!" Sasha said with a grinned.

"holy shit, I do too," Levi mocked them before giving them a death glare. "get your ass down to your seat,"

Both of the idiots jumped. "YES, SIR!"

I turned my head to Levi to see his reaction and his face were pure red. I chuckled in a low voice before looking out to the window and see the beautiful view of Sina. 4 Hours until we'll land in Bali, I hope interesting happens to me.
