Shared Boyfriend

Mile High (Part I)

This chapter is part 1 of 2.

Flight 203 to Velana International Airport now boarding.

"That's us!" Eunbi says, as she stands up from the isle chair. All the other girls stand in excitement as the gates finally let passengers in.

"Oh my god!" Minju who was seated next to me jumps up in joy. She tugs on my hand to pull me up. All of the girls line up by the gate. It looked like a school trip due to their excitement.

We got to our seats. I was seated by the isle next to the windows. Minju wanted to seat by the window but thats a seat away from mine.

I then felt someone waiting since I was blocking the isle. "You know we can just switch seats, right?" The girl says.

I turned around to see Eunbi holding her boarding pass, her arms crossed as she waits.

"Oh, noona. You're okay with that?" I asked.

She nods, gesturing me to move into the row.

I smiled at her, Minju did too. I gladly sat on the middle seat and looked out the window. The light bounced off of the beautiful lady on my left's eyes.

God.. I can't believe I'm dating her.

Attention all passengers. We will depart from ICN to MLE Airport soon. Please prepare for takeoff.

"This is it!" Minju whispers into my ear. She was so excited, even if she has to wait 9 hours before we got there.

But suddenly, I felt anxious. This was the first time I left the country. My palms were sweaty, constantly rubbing it unto my jeans.

"Is there something wrong?" She asks me, her excitement turned into worry.

"Baby, it's my first time on an airplane.." I said.

Suddenly, I felt a thump on my right chest. A hand was placed unto it. It was Eunbi.

"It's your first time?" She asks, her eyes were wide open.

Is that so shocking?

I nodded.

"Woah. A lot of your first times were with us." Eunbi says before wearing her earphones.

WH- My mouth dropped from what she said. I looked around to see if anyone heard.

Right in front of our row were Sakura, Hitomi and Chaeyeon. They all had earphones on. Behind us were empty seats since other passengers can't sit close to the girls.

Minju laughs at Eunbi's remark. She slaps her unnie's arm from across my lap. "Unnie, you should be careful with what you say." She laughs.

Eunbi smiles, her earphones still on. Her eyes were shut so she didn't even bother responding.

Please fasten your seatbelts. We will takeoff shortly.

Ah shit.. Here we go.

I suddenly felt the airplane move forward. The faster it got the more the thing shook. I was scared for my life.

I grabbed unto Minju's hand. Holding it tightly. She put other hand over mine as she comforted me with it, stroking it to ease me.

Then I realised I also grabbed unto Eunbi's hand in the heat of the moment. My eyes were shut closed so I didn't even notice.

When we finally reached cruising altitude, I took a deep sigh. Once I opened my eyes, I felt dizzy. Everything around me seemed blurry.

"Drink some water." Eunbi says as she hands me a bottle of water, still holding unto my hand with the other.

Without noticing, I let go of her hand and grab ahold unto the bottle. My throat felt super dry for some reason.

"-Thank you." I said as I drank half of the bottle.

Minju stroked my back, patting it to see if I was okay. "Are you good?" She asked as she leaned into my peripheral.

I nodded.

That was embarrassing.

I thought I could keep my composure but I guess it was too overwhelming. So this is what it's like to fly.

The seatbelt sign went off. Chaeyeon, who was in front of us, looked over to see if everything was okay.

God.. Even she noticed? Someone please hide me.

"We're all good here." Minju says, giving Chaeyeon a thumbs up.

Thank you, Minju. For being there for me.

Chaeyeon moves to the isle and heads to the bathroom.

"You should get some rest. This is a long flight." Eunbi says. She asks for a crew member by clicking the light thing.

"Can I get a sleeping kit?" She asks. The stewardess says Yes before heading off down the isle.

"Thanks, noona." I said.

She just smiles back before putting her earphones back on.
