Tough Love [COMPLETE]

#11

Luis~ 

"We're landing soon, Sam, approach check-list." I say, turning off autopilot.

"Prepare for landing.. announced..." He checks off first, "Lights: landing on..." And many points later. "Crew briefing: completed and altimeters >>>> and Approach check list complete." 

We do the landing check list, and then we get ready to land on the runway. 

"If you don't land well, you give the 10 Euros." 

I chuckle. "I'll perfectly land this aircraft..." 

"Without turbulence?" 

"Without any wind." I grin.

He owes me 10 Euros, of course. Through my days and years of flying, I haven't done a bunch of rough landings, the best part of flying to be honest, is in the air, and the landing... for me that is. 

We finish the after landing checklist and park at the gate. Then that's when Sam takes out the parking check list.. 

"I'm tired of these..." He flips through the pages. 

"The faster you do this, the better.. hop hop." I smile. 

"Flight attendant advisory." 

"Check."  I say. 

"Taxi light.." 

"Off." 

"Timer." 

"Reset." 

"Parking breaks." 

"Set."

... and on.. and further down that list, 

"Window heat." 

"Off." 

"YAW dampers." 

"Off."

"Air-conditioning." 

"Off." 

"FMC." 

"Clear routes." 

"Exterior lights." 

"Off..." 

"That one done.." 

I shake my head at him and laugh, after that, we finish the security check, and the termination check in one fast go.. Sam's idea of the check lists weren't allowed for other ears, they'll de-board him! I laugh at that. 

"I'm worn out... even more than my last flight.." I say, getting up.

"You can say that again." Sam yawns. 

The flight attendants leave the plane and we go into the terminal. I scan the area and pass towards exit, that's when I see Abigail in the car park, she must have finished up her shift.

"Hey there." I walk over to her.

She smiles back widely. "Luis, hey! How are you?" 

"Alright... and you?" 

"I'm tired, but I'm alive." 

"Great.." I nod, I walk with her to her car and nod. "I'll see you around, good night." 

"Luis, wait!" 

I turn to her. "Yeah?" 

"If you don't ask out my friend tonight, I'll beat you up." 

I laugh, mostly from shock. "Pardon!?" 

"You like her." She shows me a toothy grin.

"... I might." No use telling lies.
