(Ashley POV)

"Good evening folks, the local time is 8:30 pm eastern standard time and we have arrived at JFK International Airport and will be landing in New York City in about fifteen minutes so please have your seatbelts on." 

The flight attendant says in English with that nasally air-headed accent that most American's use

The flight attendant says in English with that nasally air-headed accent that most American's use. 

I gently rock the sleeping twins car seats with my foot and look over my shoulder to see the back of Jonathan's hood. 

He ignored me the entire flight and refused to have any sort of conversation with me. 

"Ashley,"

I turn back around to see AJ calling to me from his seat across the aisle. 

"I don't know a lot of English and we're going into a country where all they speak is English. I'm scared."  He whimpers a little and I reach over and ruffle his hair.

 "You'll be fine, your father and I are fluent in English and we'll teach you, isn't that right Jonathan?"

 We both look over at the unmoving, stone cold, pissed off rock for a best friend that I had to deal with.

"One second AJ,"

 I cup my hands around Jonathan's left ear and he tries to shrug me off but I hold steady,

 "We've spent the last 17 hours on this flight in silence and I'm sick of your silent protest. Now suck it up and stop being such a little bitch." I whisper angrily.

 I hear a gasp from an old lady behind us and the teenager boy on Jonathan's side looks at us curiously. 

I guess I really don't know how to whisper after all. 

Jonathan looks at the teenage boy and points at me. 

"You see this? Wifes I'm telling you, the worst mistake I ever made. Avoid them like the plague." He says and I smack the shit out of his shoulder.

 He finally turns to me, 

"Can...I..HELP YOU!" 

he flicks my forehead.

"Pain in my ass." I grumble and cross my arms while pouting. 

"Why am I THE wife and not just a husband?

I ask and he laughs so loud that everybody stares at us. 

I start smacking him again and he hits me back. 

"Have you seen my brother in laws Joseph, Seung, and Nolan? They are the prime examples of amazing husbands. And I bet all of their nagging in the past few years combined could never EVER even come CLOSE to equaling the amount that you just did within this SEVENTEEN HOUR LONG FLIGHT." 

He reaches over and claps his hands against my cheeks.

 "Jonathan this, Jonathan that, Jonathan please. Ashley, you are going to drive me insane. Shut up!" he says as he shakes my head vigorously.

 I push him away and playfully slap him straight across the face.

"How dare you talk to me that way! I'm only doing it because I care."

I say dramatically and try to produce fake tears and sniffling. 

He clenches his fist tightly and presses them together. 

"Aish, Dear whoever's up in the sky, please help me to calm the fuck down so I don't beat the shit out of this man on this plane." 

He grumbles a small fake prayer and I burst out laughing.

 "You know people probably think we're really married." I laugh and he shakes his head. 

"That's all your fault, always have to put on a show and be so dramatic for no god damn reason. I hate it when you do that." he complains. 

"I want a divorce then, you should be thankful to have me, not regretful. I did not come back from the dead just to be underappreciated." I huff and Jonathan tilts his head while he smirks. 

"You say you want a divorce but that doesn't scare me because I know you'll be back begging for more." He says with an evil smile to match. 

Why are we like this?

I look over at AJ, 

"Sorry buddy, what were we talking about?" I ask and he looks up at me confused. 

"Sorry sir, do I know you?" he asks

 "Damn. You see what you did? He's disowned us." Jonathan groans and I jab him in the rib cage. 

AJ looks at the couple behind us. 

"Excuse me but it seems I'm an orphan now. Would you be willing to adopt me?" He asks and even though his English was broken he was still adorable. 

I quickly turn around before the couple decides to take him up on the offer,

 "He's joking."
