"À la prochaine, mon ange." (Great pretender fanfiction)

At the airport

Makoto's POV

As soon as we arrived at the airport and got on the airplane, we found our seats, but Abby was in a bad mood so she started messing up with Laurent. His seat was next to mine, but Abby did not resist sitting there, something that made Laurent sigh with frustration.

"Grrrrrrr. That's MY seat."

Abigail ignored him and mocked him by sticking her tongue out of her mouth.

"C'mon Abbyyyyyyyy. I need my seat. Alright FINE. I'm sorry I made you wait. May I sit next to Edamame now?"

"Pfffffft. Fine."

Abby got up, sat next to Cynthia and Laurent sat next to me. We fastened our seatbelts as the plane took off. My ears started hurting but i tried not to pay attention to it. Laurent saw me struggling and he tried to comfort me by saying that it's going to stop in a while. As the air pressure was balanced my ears stopped ringing and I decided to talk with Laurent a bit, since I had the chance. I opened my mouth to speak but then...

"Hey Edamame. We weren't able to talk yesterday because of the incident with the lights. Tell me a bit about how everything went while we were apart."

"Well, in prison, it was boring. Nothing special. When I got your letter I got a little cheered up. When I got out of prison, where I tested my skills at repairing and fixing cars, I met my boss, became a mechanic and that's how I ended up here. It's true I didn't expect to see you again. I thought i'd be better to forget everything but this didn't work. You're here, after all, and now Im working for you again. I'm not really regretting it, tho. You're not someone to be forgotten, no matter how much i tried to."

Laurent's POV

I could feel myself slightly blushing as he said that.

I didn't even think of that guy actually missing me. I still can't believe he said this. Oh right. I've got to ask him....

"Edamame"

"My name is Edamura."

"Heh. Can I ask you something"

"Sure"

"Did you get any girlfriend or somerhing huh?"

"Im... not interested in women."

"..."

He laughed.

"Seriously Laurent, haha. Do I look like a straight guy to you? I mean for example when we went at that pool and you were the only one that was looking at them"

"Tch. It's not like that. I just waved at them."

He smirked.

"Oh? No? fine then, hm."

I can't believe I ended up being the one that was teased.

Makoto's POV

He basically just asked me if I was single. What's the deal anyway. It's strange he starts  showing some interest all of a sudden but this definately doesn't mean anything more. I looked outside of the window.

...

What a mistake. I almost forgot I'm afraid of heights. I felt dizzy and my vision blurred a little. Damn, i should have closed the freaking window. Immediately I pulled away from the window and as soon as I did this i started having a headache. I held my head and tried not to think for a while.

"You ok?"

Laurent. Of course he'd notice. He hasn't looked at anything except from me during the whole flight.

"Y-yeah..."

I pulled my seat backwards and tried to lay down but this didn't help. It made things worse and I felt like I 'd throw up. I pulled the seat back and my vision was even worse than before. Then Laurent dragged my head close to him so it was rested on his shoulder. I didn't resist it.

"Are you dizzy?"

I nodded.

"Hey close your eyes. It will make you feel better."

"Okay."

I did as he said and I felt my dizziness slowly fade as i fell asleep.

1 hour later

Laurent's POV

The pilot announced that we were there. I looked at Edamame. He's so cute when he sleeps, but I had to wake him up. I spoke slowly, with my voice down.

"Edamame. We're here."

He started slowly opening his eyes and then he yawned. So cute.

As soon as he woke up we all got off the plane and took a taxi to the house I was renting.
