That following weekend, Kai and I found ourselves sat on a plane, heading to America. I discovered something new about him as we were setting off. Kai is afraid of planes.

It's true. He was jittery and uneasy as we were entering the plane. At first, I thought it was nerves about meeting my parents but as we were setting off, Kai went completely immobile. His fingers clutched the armrest tightly and his eyes were squeezed shut. He looked petrified.

I grab his hand and tighten my fingers around his. His eyes remain straight ahead; his breaths are shallow but I know he's grateful.

"You must be crazy for me because you can't keep your hands off me," Kai attempts to joke in a trembling voice.

I smile, shaking my head. Always teasing me.

"Oh, totally," I reply, sarcastically. "These hands are practically calling for you."

Kai smirks. "Oh, babe, I knew you would fall for me the moment you met me."

I didn't.

I never expected I would be on a plane, sat next to Kai, heading to America. Hell, I never believed I would be having a serious conversation with Kai.

Things can really change.

"How could I not? Those lips, those eyes, and damn, that ass. You're too irresistible."

I lean closer to him until my mouth is centimeters from his. He exhales and flickers his eyes to my mouth. Before I can blink, his mouth is on me.

The world vanishes before my eyes as I feel the passion and love. I grip his shirt and flutter my eyes shut. This feels perfect, nothing could ruin—

"Excuse me," A high pitched, clipped tone breaks my train of thoughts. Reluctantly opening my eyes, I glance up at the woman and give her a glare. The air hostess does not look impressed at all but our PDA. Neither do some of the older passengers around me who all give us dirty looks.

"Yes?" I ask, sighing.

"You are making a lot of the passengers uncomfortable." She says, locking eyes with me. "Please refrain yourselves from touching each other inappropriately."

Giving her one last icy cold glare, I turn my body to the front and stare blankly at the back of the chair in front of me.

Kai chuckles beside me, finding the whole situation amusing.

"Whatever," I roll my eyes, crossing my arms over my chest.

******

"That woman was being ridiculous! I've seen people do worse things on a plane than kiss! It's discrimination, I'm telling you! Discrimination against the blondes!" I rant to Kai as we collect our luggage at the airport.

Kai, who has been listening to me rant for the past fifteen minutes, rolls his eyes. He knows better than most people. You don't interrupt Ren when she's ranting. It doesn't go well. I will turn into an angry hippo. Or maybe a beserk lima. Why a lima? No idea.

"She is so rude. I should file a complaint."

Kai hums, clearly not paying attention.

"Are you even listening to me?" I ask him, sharply.
