Meant to be

First touch

We got to the airport, we all got out of the car and took out our bags. I brought a small suitcase. We headed inside and checked in. Then we went through the luggage machine. We still had an hour left until our flight so we decided to go and buy some food. We went to a local supermarket and brought some snacks and then went to the waiting area just outside our boarding gate and ate our food.
After a little while we boarded the plane.

Andy- I'm here

Elena- me too

Andy- thank god I'm not alone as I brought two extra tickets after we brought the main ones

Elena- I'll keep you company for the next couple of hours

I put my bags in the bag area and sat down next the window. Andy did the same and sat next to me and then an old lady sat next to him on the other end. We looked around and the others were sitting a few rows ahead of us on the other side of the plane. It was 10pm and I was very tired

Andy- go to sleep if you want

Elena- no, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight. It's okay though, I've got an upbeat music playlist to listen to

Andy then yawned

Andy- I might have to listen with you

Elena- of course you can

The plane started to move. I clenched my legs, I never liked taking off, landing was fine but it was taking off that i never liked. Andy whispered to me

Andy- are you okay?

Elena- I just don't like taking off

Andy- oh, want to hold my hand?

I smiled at him and then interlocked fingers with him. There was something about his touch that  made comforted me, they were so soft and warm. We looked at each other the same time and made eye contact. Then we both looked away. My heart did a flip. I started getting butterflies in my stomach. I knew this feeling to well. I've tried to ignore the fact that I may have feelings for Andy, well he was an interest of mine. I have hardly ever had butterflies when I'm around him because I forced myself not to. I just didn't want to admit to myself and I wasn't so sure. But this confirms it...
