Love at First Flight

Being in love can make your heart flutter and it takes your thoughts and imaginations swarming away from you, but what would happen if you fall in love with the guy who can ride a flight up the sky, will your thoughts go well above him ? I have no idea but I would love to be on that ride. 

I was supposed to travel to Mumbai in flight and it was my first time, not only to Mumbai but also my first time as a flight traveler. I arrived 3 hours before my scheduled departure, my parents said I was going too early but I didn't wanted my first experience to be messed up. I was alone and didn't know where to check in or ask info or to even sit, ridiculous first time panics. 

I was just roaming around inside the airport and to my clumsiness, I bumped into a guy and it wasn't even his fault but I casually shouted at him "Are you blind" with a frustrated look. He just smirked at me and said "Is it your first time here, you definitely look lost", and yes I was lost. Even before I could say something he took the flight ticket from my hand, which I'm damn sure that I would have lost it in a few minutes. He guided me where to check in and where I could probably sit and wait rather than ranting on everyone. And with a slight smile he said " I hope you will enjoy your ride." And walked away. That's when I realised he was wearing a black pant with a black shoe and a black jacket which hid a white shirt, unless he was a freak who would travel in this attire , he was definitely one of the employees in the airport or he was a freaking pilot. 

Having the thought of this small encounter with him in the corner of my mind, I slid myself next to a lady in her 50's, who will be my flight companion for the next 1 and half hours, with that, my vision just focused outside the flight window that I was so thankful for. The one problem I had in my travelling experience in either bus or car was, I needed to use washroom more frequently than I usually do.

So I forced myself to stop reading the novel, which I had brought to distract myself from the vivid thoughts of plane crashes in my head, and excused myself to the bathroom. It was already engaged so I waited and finally when the door opened I knew I had frozen and believed myself to be casted in one of the fantasy movies I had watched.

The guy I had ranted on, after bumping in to him in the airport was staring into my eyes with a smirk playing in the corner for his lips. He was my pilot, "not mine" ,the flight I was traveling in and he looked breath-taking in those pilot uniform. He said pointing to the bathroom behind him" I am using this since the one near my cabin is broken", I just nodded dumbfounded, he continued " and also I wanted to look for you but...you just spared me the time", so he knew I was one of his flight passengers. "Well" I said, "my life's in your hands then, I have no other option than to trust you". He just gave me the smirk that I tried not to convince myself that I liked.
