“Your seat miss,” The attendant motioned to a rear window seat, the motion made you sigh visibly in relief.
“Nervous flyer, I take it,” He asked a small smile forming across his face.
You smiled back nervously, “Is it that obvious?”
“I’m sure you’ll be fine. If you have headphones try those for takeoff, it’ll help you take your mind off the plane.” “Is that from experience or a hopeful suggestion?” Your eyes remained trained on his figure as his eyes scanned over top your head.
“May I help you find your seat, sir?” The attendant asked, folding his hands in front of himself politely.
Out of curiosity, you found yourself turning around to look at the young man standing a few paces back, brow furrowed on concentration at his ticket. What surprised you the most was the shade of his hair – vivid blue. Your eyes raked over the soft tussle of his growing hair, his eyes hidden behind large black sunglasses.
“Yes, actually, I think I have a back seat, but could you-” His words died out as he looked up catching sight of you standing between him and the attendant. “My apologies miss.”
“Oh, no, it’s no trouble.” You motioned behind yourself to the attendant. “I was just taking my own seat.”
His lips raised into a boxy smile, his bright smile catching you off guard a little. You turned to put your carryon bag in the above compartment while the attendant looked at the blue haired man’s ticket. Busying yourself with finding your headphones, you hoped you had enough charge to at least get you off the ground.
“Mind leaving that open?” The deep voice that came from the man earlier caused you to jump slightly as you’d lost yourself in your thoughts.
You turned once more, headphones clutched in one hand as you made direct eye contact with the stranger from before.
Chocolate.
You shook your head, to clear that last thought as you smiled politely at the young man. “Of course, no problem.”
Stepping into your designated area, you busied yourself with getting comfortable in your seat, handbag in your lap, iPod in hand and headphones in the other.
The breeze of a body sitting next to you caused your head to lift, the young man giving you that boxy smile again as he folded his sunglasses.
You smiled back, your cheeks flushing pink as you tried not to think about how attractive he was and the fact that you now had to sit next to him for your sixteen hour flight.

The beeping your headphones dying two hours in, signaled your impending boredom, you sighed. Putting the headphones back in their case to charge, I guess I could read.
Your thoughts wandered to the other passengers – specifically the young man slumped back in his seat, headphones on, eyes trained on the screen in front of him.
Curiosity got the better of you, so you adjusted yourself in your seat a little to catch a glimpse of the screen.
The vision of two young lions running through the tall grass brought a soft smile to your lips; he’s watching The Lion King.
Your eyes were glued to the screen – so much so that you didn’t even realize that the stranger next to you was grinning, that boxy grin of his, until he spoke up softly.
“You want to listen too?”
Your eyes trailed over the screen as they came to rest oh his, “Would you mind? My headphones died and I’m not really feeling up to reading right now.”
With a slight chuckle, he handed you one half of his headphones – wired, ironically, good for the long flight though, you thought.
“I’m Taehyung by the way,” He said, reaching his hand out for you to shake.
“Y/N,” You smiled back at him gladly accepting his kind gesture.
“Y/N, so what’ll it be in the queue after this?”
You thought about it for a moment, your head cocked to the side in contemplation. “Do you have, Aladdin?”
Taehyung feigned hurt, his hands clutching his heart dramatically, and eyes comically wide. “Do…did you just…” He scoffed. “Do I have Aladdin?”
Suddenly he grinned, eyeing you playfully, “This here, is my Disney Plus subscription I’ll have you know. I have almost everything.”
“Then Aladdin it is, good sir, I hope you don’t mind, but I have a habit of following the dialogue.”
“Thank god,” Taehyung placed his hand over his heart again.
“The last person I sat next to kept staring at me in disgust as I mouthed the lyrics to ‘Into the Unknown’ and acted out Olaf’s retelling of Frozen.
You giggled, clutching your side as you leaned closer, “I’ll sing Anna’s verses if you sing Hans?” You asked, holding his gaze long enough to see them light up in delight.
“You are perfect,” He breathed out softly.
