Kris' POV:
Today, my girlfriend, Brooke, and I are getting ready for the trip to LA since the Cubs are getting ready to play the Dodgers.
It's a rare occasion for Brooke to go on a trip with me, but when she does, I appreciate it more than anything. Why? Because I'm terrified of flying.
Like I said in an interview a few years back, I don't like anything about heights, and the more trips we go on, the more I hate it. Weird, I know.
Brooke and I have only been dating for a few months, and it's been super fun. She's funny, she's outgoing and athletic. But I still haven't told her my biggest fear.
I snap out of my thoughts when I see Brooke enter my room. She must've let herself in. "Hey," I greet her.
"Hi," she says, with that beautiful smile I love. I get up from sitting on my bed to give her a kiss. We pull away, and I give her a tight squeeze around her waist.
"How did you get in?" I ask her. I pull away and smile at her. She's so beautiful.
"You need to find a better spot for your spare key," she says, laughing at me.
I chuckle at her words. She always finds a way to make me laugh. "Okay, we should probably get going," I say, still chuckling a little. I then grab my bags, and we head to the front door. Once we head to the front door, I let her put first as I grab her bags along with mine. We then head to the elevator to get to the parking garage of the building.
The ride to the garage was short, so we got to the car shortly. Before I put the bags in the trunk, I open the passenger door for her. "M'lady," I say to her as I jokingly smirk at her.
She giggles at me as she gets into the passenger seat. "Thank you," she replies.
I close the door behind her, and I head to the trunk to put the bags in. Once I finish, I hop in the car to start the drive to the airport.
We drive for a little while, with one of my hands on the wheel and the other on her thigh. My mind then drifts to my fear of flights, and I start trembling.
I'm shaken from my thoughts when I feel her hand on mine. "You okay, kris?" She asks, worried.
I nod, shaking a little. "Yeah, I'm fine," I reply, my voice cracking.
She looks at me skeptically. "Okay," she says.
I continue the drive to the airport, now feeling calmer than earlier.
Brooke's POV:
Kris has been acting very weird the whole car ride. I feel like he's hiding something. I shake my thoughts away as we arrive at the airport to the private jet wing to head to LA.
I then see kris getting nervous again. "Babe, are you sure you're okay?" I ask him.
He nods his head at me. "Yeah, I'm cool," his voice cracks. Why is he so nervous?
I look at him weirdly as we wait for the other players to arrive. I see kris looking off in the distance. I go up to him and wrap my arms around his waist from behind, and I lean my head on his back.
He turns around in my arms to hug me around my shoulders. It wasn't cold in Chicago, but it was a little chilly. His arms kept me a warm as we felt the wind blow since we were outside.
"I'm afraid of flying," I hear him say, shyly.
I look up at him all confused. "What?" I ask.
"I'm afraid of flying," he repeats, sounding ashamed.
"Aww, babe."
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. I just didn't want to judge me." I rub his arms as I look at him chuckling.
"It's okay," I tell him. "We all have fears. And I'll be there right next to you."
"Thank you," He says. He gives me a kiss, and I kiss him back as the other players arrive.
We all get on the plane, and about an hour later, the plane takes off. I feel kris start to get a little tense to my right. I thought it'd be best for him to sit by the window so he can see what's going on. I put my hand on his thigh as he looks at me.
We smile at each other as the plane heads to LA. I don't think I've ever met a man that makes me as happy as he does.
Halfway through the flight, I feel kris' hand on top of mine, and I look at him.
"Thank you," He says.
I look at him confused. "For what?" I ask.
"For not judging me and staying with me."
I smile at him and kiss him. He kisses me back as we smile through the kiss.
He makes me so happy.
Throughout the plane ride, kris felt more relaxed and relieved. But he was still scared of flying.....
