i sat in the white leather seat, fiddling with the ends of my hair.

"so..."

i looked up, noticing mystery had chose the seat across from me.

"thank you, so much, for doing this. i don't know anyone else who would invite a stranger on a private jet because they missed the same flight."

i smiled at him, tucking my hair behind my ear.

he smiled as well.

"it's no problem, really. think of it as...a favor. and when you mentioned a manager being angry, i could imagine how scared i would be for my career as well. if i still have mine."

he scratched the back of his neck.

he was cute, personality and looks.

"i'm sure you still have your job. who would give you up?"

i said flirtatiously.

i actually flirt with many guys alot.

i never get embarrassed saying anything out loud like that, but they do.

"you would be suprised...but thanks!"

"you're very welcome."

"shouldn't i be the one owing you a favor?"

"for what?"

"when i tripped you.."

he gave me the look that says "oh please'.

"seriously? that wasn't even bad. you didn't do anything. i should've watched where i was going."

"but i-"

i was interrupted by a waitress, setting a beer looking beverage in front of us.

"i'm sorry, i'm too young to drink..."

"so am i."

he said before taking a swig.

my eyes widened, and my mouth practically fell to the floor.

"good thing it's sparkling wine."

he chuckled.

my tension eased as i laughed too.

sparkling wine was a drink that looked like alcohol, but it was really just carbonated grape juice.

i scanned the drink before taking a gulp.

it was very much more carbonated than i remember.

i choked on the drink.

it burned my mouth, throat, even my eyes.
