I can't believe I actually agreed to do this stupid shit but here i am, sat next to Vinnie waiting to board our plane. My eyelids started to become heavy and I was ready to take a quick nap before he stopped me.

"You can't fall asleep now!" He whined. One of my eyes snapped open and i groaned. "Why not?" I asked annoyed.

"Because we have to get on the plane soon and i don't wanna have to wake your dumb ass up." He says all up in my face. My eyes snapped open.
"You do know that i'm doing you a favour right? So if i were you i wouldn't get on my nerves." I said repositioning my body in the cold metal seat. He doesn't say anything and just scrolls on his phone.

—on the plane—

I took the window seat obviously and then something struck me.

I'm afraid of flying.

How the fuck does one forget that they're deathly afraid of something? I look out of the window with wide eyes and my hands grip the arm rests as the plane starts moving. I clench my eyes shut and prepare myself for when we were going to leave the ground. My chest starts to tighten when all of a sudden I feel a warm hand on mine. I open my eyes and look down at my hand, which is holding onto the arm rest for dear life. Resting on top of my hand is Vinnie's. He gently squeezes it to let me know that it's intentional.

I look up at him and i'm met with hazel eyes staring back at me. I give him a slight smile to say thank you and he holds my hand as we take off. I immediately remove my hand from his before it gets awkward.

Sure, Vinnie is a pretty guy and he's some what sweet but we wouldn't work together. I've always been attracted to him but i try to not think about it because i'm not his type. His type is blonde, blue eyed, skinny girls. (sorry if that's describing you lol)

—at his house—

We walk into his house and i'm stood behind him as he excitedly greets his family. I stand there not knowing what to do with myself before his mom slightly pushes Vinnie out of the way and pulls me into a warm hug. "Hi! He's told me so much about you, y/n!" I chuckle and greet her back. "You're even more beautiful than he described." She says softly. "Thank you so much...i can see where he gets his looks from.." I say complimenting her. She pulls me into another warm embrace and me and Vinnie make our way to his room.

I sit on his bed and look around the room. "Red walls, bold choice." I observe.
"Actually, i would say more of a maroon but yeah pretty bold i guess." He replies unzipping his little suitcase. Things had been awkward between us ever since what happened on the plane and i can't help but think about his hand clutching mine.

No. No i cannot catch feelings.

"My mom liked you. That's a good sign." He says snapping me out of my thoughts. "Yeah, i hope so. She was so sweet." I said smiling. I get up and start snooping around his room. My eyes catch something and i realise that is a love letter that he must have written to someone in high school. I quickly go to grab it and read it but he beats me to it.

He holds it above his head so i can't reach it. "Nu uh. You are not going to read this.." He says smirking.
"Why not? I promise i won't make fun of you!" I say jumping to try and grab it. He repeats himself over and over telling me no and going on his tippy toes to make it harder for me to reach.

Laughter fills the room as we fight over this piece of paper and i jump as high as i can to get it. I finally latch onto it but his grip is too strong and i can't get it out of his hand. I loose my balance and we both topple over and i finally have the lurve letter in my hand.

Laying on top of him, im hysterical as i read the words that 15 year old vinnie had written out loud. He slowly slips the paper out of my hand and i realise the position we are in. Our faces are dangerously close as my giggles die down and his eyes pierce into my soul. His hand gently caresses my cheek and our lips collided.
