˜"*°• BANDAID •°*"˜ || Elijah Hewson- Inhaler

So far so good

The feeling of Boarding a plane is something I thought I would never experience. The boys were walking in front of me and all I could see was Josh's back taking the lead. So far so good. The people behind me were all excited and even took pictures of the plane but all I could possibly think of was all the loud and new noises I was about to experience. Entering the plane, the little rows where people are supposed to walk were tiny. I'm starting to regret packing so many sweets and games because the bag I had hanging down on my shoulder wasn't doing me any justice with trying to walk to the front row where my seat was supposed to be located. Elijahs dark hair was what I was fixed on in order to not get lost.
Approaching Elijah siting right next to the window I tried getting my heavy damn bag up into the trunk. My legs were shaky and my arms were burning because there was another bag blocking it from me pushing it to the far back.

"You can just ask me to help you.", Elijah said giving her a caring but yet a cold and very familiar look.
"There is no need for me to ask you for help when you can clearly tell that I would need some.", Mirella replied. He walked up to her but he decided to position himself right behind her. Her back was in contact with his body when he bend over to have his face right next to hers, he opened his lips.
"You should take a seat. I will take care of that, miss." His arms were up the whole time supporting the bag and Mirellas weak hands to not have the bag fall onto her. She didn't say anything but just took the seat away from the window. Even a quick view out of the window is something she just couldn't get herself to do. Her head stayed focussed at the seat in front of her.
The plane was done boarding and everyone was asked to stay seated and tighten the belts. Mirella didn't move.

Elijah Pov
The flight attendant came over to us and reminded Mirella to put on her belt but she was like frozen.
"Shes a little nervous. Ill take care of it." And with that the flight attendant left and I decided to secure her with the belt myself.
"You should have told me you were afraid of planes. Do you take any medication?", he asked her carefully. Mirella looked up to him finally.
Her eyes broke me. She looked terrified and kept fiddling with her fingers. You're so far.

Mirella Pov
I cant believe they can already tell that Im on some medication. The moment they realize Im a wrack its fucking over and I will be sent back home. My vision was all blurry but it was better that way. I couldn't look him in the eyes after he had just seen me like this and it doesn't seem to get better. He hates me anyways and now that he noticed how bad my mental health is in moments like these, he will have me get kicked out as soon a we land.
My messy thoughts were interrupted by the plane bumping and slowly taking off. My chest felt like it was about to explode and as if my heart would shatter any second. All I could was feel the mess inside of my body when I noticed something warm on the outside of my body. My vision was still blurry but my body started to embrace a feeling of comfort and safety. Elijah was holding my hands tightly. He wiped away my tears which made me flinch at first but I was never this happy to see his face clearly again. I guess it just feels like my only friend is my enemy.
"Rob told me you have a bunch of games with you?", he said giving me a warm smile which I just replied with a nod.
"Perfect, the moment we are allowed to move freely I will beat you in any game possible."
His voice was as smooth as honey. It was deep and gave me a feeling I never had before, it just feels warm.
Nonetheless I felt bad. He was basically forced to be nice before I embarrass him and the others in front of everyone. He is going to use this against me someday. He doesn't like you Mirella, he just doesn't want to embarrass him and the others thats it. You think I love what you do to me?

We didn't end up playing games probably because the whole situation made it really awkward for me to even think about anything else than that. I tried to lean back and close my eyes to not get my attention distracted to the wrong stuff and get me freaked out again. Out of nowhere Elijah put one of his headphones in my right ear and when I opened my eyes to look over at him he just looked at me softly and said "I hope this makes you feel better."
It was my song. The song I performed. But it was so much better because it was sung by him.
"How did you mesmerize the lyrics and everything?", she asked.
"It just wouldn't leave my mind.", he answered.
"I like it a lot.", she commented and didn't even notice that the plane just landed. The moment Elijah turned on his phone the amount of messages he got was insane.
I took a quick glance of his screen and there was the name 'Liv' popping up again and again without a break. It was terrifying at some point. Been avoiding your name just to get some space.
Most of the passengers left and then Elijah and I decided to go next. Instead of helping me with my bag again, he just left not taking a second off of staring at his phone. You're so far from getting close to me.
That's when Rob came over to help me.
"Hey love, how was it going with Elijah?", Rob asked laughing.
"It was okay I think. So far, so good. Did you know that he covered the song I performed?", she carefully asked.
"He did what???? Hahahahhahahahhahaha oh Elijah my boy really isn't slick.", Rob said.
"What do you mean by that??", Mirella said now really confused.
"Doesn't matter. Lets just get out alreadyI really need to smoke.", he said still really amused about getting the information that his friend covered the song and didn't let anyone know.
