🌹CHAPTER FORTY🌹
The inside of the plane resembles a room. The carpet we stand on is crimson red, which look like it's the theme in this airplane. The there are ways to go, one will lead to the flight attended seats and the kitchen and the pilot thingy, where they are actually flying the plane and the other way will lead to the seats.
In this plane there are only two seats, well more like beds. The seats are shaped like a normal seat, only it's made out of material that you see on beds, and there are covers and a pillow and there's even a iPad connected to the arm rests, which I have no idea what you can do with but I like to find out.
Tables are also over the seats, but can be taken off. "You like?" Alexander asks, but I don't answer. I have no words for this, I'm speechless. Literally. My jaw is practically on the floor and my eyes are more widened than they have ever been before, if anymore, they might fall out of their sockets.
He only chuckles at me. "Welcome aboard Knight air, please be seated, we shall be taken off flight soon" The flight attendant says, with a kind smile on her face. She is also dressed in a red colored flight attended outfit, the same red that is on the carpet.
Alexander leads me to one of the seats and I sit down and let me just tell you that this seat is the most comfortable seat I have ever sat on in my life. It's softer than any chair I've ever sat on and it's softer than any bed that I've slept on in my entire life.
I never want to stand up from this seat ever again. He sits on the other seat. "Put on the seat belt, wouldn't want you to hurt yourself if anything goes wrong" He says and I instantly look for the seat belt and put it around my waist and make sure it's tight enough so I can't move in my seat, it's only for my safety.
I have been so lost in the beauty and wonder of this airplane that I had forgotten about the fact that I'm in an airplane, I'm actually sitting in an airplane and we're about to take off, and I've never been on a plane before. A laugh comes from Alexander.
"Laugh all you want, I believe you were the same the first time you went on an airplane" I say, trying to sound like I'm not more terrified than I have ever been in my life. I'm trying to be brave and have courage, I mean, I'm a grown woman. I should not be scared of being on an airplane.
When I think about this, this is sort of silly at me for being this frightened of a simple flight on a plane. "Believe it or not, but I was asleep the whole time the first time I went on an airplane" He says and I smirk. "You were asleep the first flight of your life, how boring" I say and giggle.
"Have I ever told you, you have the most adorable giggle in the whole world" He says and blood rushes to my cheeks as I blush a deep shade of red. I can't help but smile to myself at his words. His words affect me too much, and I can't deny the fact that I do like it when he makes me blush, and I don't mind the butterflies in my stomach that flutter around.
"No" I tell him, I was going to say something when I start to feel the plane begin to move and I instantly panic and grip into the arm rests tightly. It's a good thing that the seats are a bit apart, so I wouldn't be able to grab a strong hold of Alexander and squeeze the life out of him. That would be so embarrassing if I would do that, so it's a good thing we are flying on a private plane.
His private plane, I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that he owns his own plane. My mom has a private plane but she rents it, she doesn't own it, and she doesn't use it that often. Besides, I have never been on an airplane, my mom never wanted me to, she said it was so dangerous and she couldn't risk my life.
"Don't be afraid, everything's going to be all right" He tells me, he's trying to comfort me. Because the plane is moving, we can't remove the seat belts and he can't come over to me. "I know it will" I tell him. I know I shouldn't be afraid of this and I'm trying my best to not be, but no matter what I do it doesn't work and I'm still afraid of it.
"Look outside the window, trust me, it's beautiful" Alexander softly says, I do as he says and look outside the window that is beside me. I smile when I see this, the plane is off the ground and is going higher and higher with every second.
He didn't lie about this being beautiful. I can see the whole city and it looks amazing from here. "Thank you" I say, still in my own fantasy world about this whole thing and I find myself unable to take my eyes of the window and everything that is down there.
I'm not afraid of heights, but even if I were, I wouldn't care about it, because the beauty is more than I've ever seen. "For what?" He asks, confusion written in his tone and it's clear to me that he did not understand what I was meaning. "For showing me this, letting me experience this" I say, my voice is just above a whisper, but through the noise that the plane makes, I think he heard me but I'm too busy to watch the outside and the ground below us to even notice.
I don't know for how long I stared outside but the plane has leveled and is straight now, we're above the clouds, but the land below is still visible even through the clouds. A door being opened breaks me away from this and makes me look at one of the flight attendant has just entered this side of the plane.
I didn't notice that there was a door there before. "Mr. Knight, Ms. Ace, do you want refreshments?" She asks with a kind smile on her face. "I want white wine and she will have water" Alexander tells her with a rudeness in his voice. This always leaves me puzzled on how cruel he is to others but how soft and kind he is to me.
Well, he was harsh and cruel on me when we first met, but we've come along way since then, even if it has been a few weeks. It's strange how in those weeks that we've known each other, I've started to fall in love with him and it hasn't been that long.
She nods her head and leaves and closes the door behind her. "You didn't have to be so rude to her, you know?" I ask him, though it was more of a reminder to him. I can't read his expression, it's hardened for sure but other than that I can't tell. Like I've mentioned before, I'm not that good at reading people's faces or their looks or their emotions.
"I have a reputation to uphold" He only says to me and surprisingly that does explain it all to me, and I understand it all. It is true, he has a reputation of being cruel and harsh and rude to people, and doesn't even have a heart. But, that is normal.
The people who have reputations need to make sure that they hold them, because if they don't live up to their reputations, people won't care for them as much. Like my mom has the reputation of having to be able to build her own company from nothing and she needs to uphold that, if not then people will make fun of her and things like that. That's why it's so important.
"Then why are you so nice to me?" I ask him, this question has been burning in my mind for a while now, or maybe just a few days. I do remember that he was always so cruel to me and harsh in the beginning but one day it all chanced and I have no idea why, all I know is that I like the chance.
He sighs and right before he's about to answer the same flight attendant comes and hands up out drinks. "Thank you" i tell her. Alexander Knight might have the reputation of being mean to everyone, but that is not my reputation. Wait a minute, do I even have a reputation?
I have no idea. She leaves and I take a sip of my water, which has three ice cubes in it, making it cool. "That question has to be answered later" He tells me and I frown. I do find it tempting to ask why but I didn't question the subject any further.
"Do you want to watch a movie?" He asks me after a minute or two of silence, both of us had nothing to say to each other, or at least I couldn't find anything to say. Even when my brain has been trying to figure something out to say. "Yes, I would like that" I tell him and he stands up and takes the remote from a box that is stuck to the wall.
"I don't see the TV, where is it?" I ask him, I look around again to make sure that there isn't one and I'm actually sure that there is no TV on this plane and that is so strange to me. He laughs at me, I bet he knows where it is and is making fun of me for not being able to find it or lay eyes on it.
Unless it is on the size of a mouse, I'm pretty sure it isn't even here. "Watch" He tells me, and he pushes one button on the remote and suddenly a TV comes out of the wall in front of me and there's one also in front of him. On the walls on either side of the door.
"Wow" I say as my jaw drops open, I had no idea that we even possible. Where did the wall go? How is that even possible? On both screens come the same thing and I believe it's because it's in front of both of us and not in the middle, just for better quality I think.
"Now, what do you want to watch?" He asks, as if this is the most casual thing in the world, which it is now since a freaking TV just came out of the wall, I'm not even sure how but I think he's not going to tell me that. "I don't know" I answer him.
He sits back in his chair. "I'll pick then" He says and searches through the movies that are available, most of them are movies that I've never even heard of or soon. "This one. It's a good one" He tells me and he looks at me with a look that tells me that he wants my approval.
The movie he has picked falls under the one that is in the category of movies that I don't know. "All right" I say to him, he seems to want to watch that movie and who am I to deny him that. Besides, he has done so many things for me that I can never be able to repay for, perhaps this is a payment of some sort. He puts the movie on and we watch it together, and I forgot all about my fear about the flight.
