"What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done in public?"
-Y/n

*(A/N: Chapter is pretty calm compared to the others, enjoy!)*

The gentle hum of the jet's engines filled the air as the plane ascended into the clouds. Noa glanced over at the two , his sharp eyes scanning their weary faces.

"Are you two okay?" he asked again, his voice calm but firm.

They exchanged a glance, silently agreeing not to delve into the horrors they had just escaped.

"We're fine," Michael replied, though his voice lacked conviction.

Noa nodded, noting their exhaustion. "You both look like you could use some rest. There's a room near back," he said, pointing to a closed door near the rear of the jet's cabin.

Y/n and Michael muttered their thanks and made their way to the room. As they walked towards it, Noa watched them with a concerned frown that was covered with worries.

The onboard bedroom was surprisingly luxurious with soft lighting, a plush bed and even a small closet. Y/n sat down on the edge of the bed, her fingers tracing the fabric of the blanket. Michael joined her, the silence between them heavy yet comfortable.

It was Michael who finally broke the quiet. "So... now what?" he asked, his voice low and uncertain.

Y/n sighed, running a hand through her hair. "I don't know," she admitted. "I... I just want to sleep."

He nodded in agreement. "Yeah, sleep sounds good."

They climbed into the bed, lying side by side. Slowly, they inched closer to each other, seeking comfort in the proximity. Michael's arm found its way around Y/n's waist as they closed their eyes, hoping for sleep to take them.

But sleep wouldn't come.

Five minutes passed and Y/n's eyes popped open. She turned to Michael, her voice breaking the silence. "I can't sleep."

Michael sighed, his own eyes open now. "Me neither."

She sat up, her brow furrowed in thought. "Do you want to do something else?"

He propped himself up on his elbow, raising an eyebrow. "Like what?"

A small smile tugged at her lips. "I've got Sae's iPad," she said, pulling her small bag onto her lap. "Maybe we can play something."

Michael watched with mild amusement as she unlocked the device, clearly pleased with herself.

"You have Sae's iPad?! Did you meet with him or something?"

Y/n smiled softly. "It's a long story."

After unlocking it she navigated through the device, her excitement dimming when she realized there were no games installed. Y/n's shoulders slumped as she muttered under her breath, "I feel like I should've expected this, it's Sae."
