Heart hoisted his bag onto his back holding his strap to his left shoulder with his left hand as he watched the trail of people before him get onto the plane. A flight lady stood next to the door, on the phone talking, while watching. He handed his ticket to her not quite sure where to go. She smiled as if about to say something, when a large hand reached past his shoulder and grabbed back the ticket.
“It’s okay I know where to go.” Saint said from behind him.
Heart looked down at the ground feeling very much like a dumbass.
A large hand fell on his right shoulder and began to steer him forward.
Heart let him push him around trying not to feel embarrassed as he rounded the corner into the aisle, which was slightly wider than economy. The giant spacious purple chairs with deep purple and gold trimmed pillows was something new he had never seen before.
“Those are our seats there.” Saint said pointing in front of them to a pair on the left and next to a window.
“It has its own individual compartments for luggage.”
“Luggage what luggage.” Heart exclaimed, still feeling salty over Saint’s trickery.
“And they recline too.”
“They recline!”
“You are too easy.”
Heart pursed his lips, pouting.
“You don’t have to pick on me just because it is easy.”
“What else is there to do for an hour?”
“I thought this was a work trip?”
“We are not there, yet. I could play for a while.” Saint teased leaning in towards Heart playfully.
“Nope.” Heart said, shutting him down.
Saint sucked in a breath but started putting his bags away in his above seat compartment.
Heart looked over to the right and noticed an older woman who looked to be in her late fifties or sixties attempting to put her luggage in the large space above her seat. She stood on her tiptoes attempting to push the bag far enough back that she could close the bin. Heart watched her struggle with a bag that wouldn’t cooperate despite its small size. Just due to the weight of it and her own short height, the bag just didn’t want to budge.
Heart took his backpack off and threw it on the seat before heading over to the woman.

“Hello there, do you mind if I help you, Miss?”

‘What could be in this thing?’
Heart stood on his tiptoes to try to give it a bigger shove, and rocked back, when his back slammed gently into a large presence behind him. Heart hunched inwards instinctively.
“That looks really heavy Miss, here let me help you.” Heart heard Saint say but was still too embarrassed to move as his entire body pressed into Saint’s.
“Oh, thank you.” Her sweet voice said. She bowed before moving to sit down in her seat.
“Young people are so nice nowadays.”
Heart felt as Saint stepped away from him and his entire body felt as if it could collapse as all the tension just seeped out of his body, seemingly as if sucked out of him and through the ground.
Heart bowed forward lightly before turning.
Saint looked at him.
“You really shouldn’t offer to help short people with something above their heads if you are not much taller than them. You know that’s how that works right?” Saint leaned forward, whispering in his ear.
Heart glanced up at Saint and scowled before pushing past him, snatching up his bag and plopping into his seat unhappily.
Saint chuckled at him before he sat down next to him gently.
Heart unzipped his bag and pulled out his phone, then pulled up his chat with Ring and High in Line. Doing his best to ignore Saint rather than dignify him with a response.
*Heartbeats4U* On the plane now, it’s so spacious.
~HighHopes~ Really, how are you flying?
*Heartbeats4U* Thai Airlines, business class seating.
~HighHopes~ Ooo, mister fancy
*PutARingonit* Your boss is so nice and gentle for a demon lord.
Business class make sure you thank your prince charming.
~HighHopes~ He is trying to wine and dine you.
Don’t put out until after dessert
*Heartbeats4U* You guys are disgusting.
~HighHopes~ Ask for extra ice
*Heartbeats4U* Why?
~HighHopes~ Just in case things get too hot and heavy and you need to calm down.
*Heartbeats4U* I took out my phone to avoid his harassment, and now I am just getting double
doses of it.
Seriously?
~HighHopes~ Oi, Heart, is your handsome boss who wants to line your pockets with cash and
take you on a romantic getaway being too much for you?
You are right… That’s too much.
Ask him if he will take me instead. I want sixty grand for a few days of carrying his
bags around.
*Heartbeats4U* I’m going to take a nap, you are all trolls.
*PutARingonit* Sleep with one eye open.
~HighHopes~ Use protection
*PutARingonit* Eww, High you are disgusting.
~HighHopes~ What? You were thinking of it too.
*PutARingonit* Yeah, that’s why I said one eye open.
Heart sighed and put his phone back down into the backpack’s front pocket. Then sighed before throwing his head back only to see Saint staring at him from above.
Heart stalled, his heart beating in his chest frantically.
‘Why does my heart betray me whenever you are near?’
“What do you need? Did I do something? Did you want the window seat?” Heart pushed out of the seat, ready in an instant to move for Saint.
Saint reached out and pressed on his chest lightly shoving him back into the chair. Heart fell backwards easily. Saint leaned over him and Heart instinctively held up his arms across his chest as if to ward Saint off.
“Calm down I was just trying to reach behind you to get to the outlet to charge my phone. The one in mine is broken. I figured I could do it without disturbing you since you were busy.”
“You failed, you’re disturbing.” Heart said saucily.
Saint plugged in his charging cord then pulled back and adjusted into his seat until it was comfortable before plugging in his phone.
Heart watched him out of the corner of his eyes.
“What are you trying to ward off a vampire? What is with your arms?” Saint asked.
“Maybe, it will have to do since I didn’t bring any stakes.”
“I could ask if they have steak.” Saint teased.
“That’s not what I meant.” Heart whined annoyed.
“Oh, be quiet, you big baby and look out the window. The scenery is really beautiful.”
“It’s just Thailand. I have seen it with my own eyes so many times. I doubt from the air it is any different.”
“Do you want me to pick you up bridal style to switch seats with you? Or are you going to be good and look out the window?” Saint threatened.
Heart pushed out his bottom lip glaring at Saint voraciously, but obediently turned and looked out the window.
The plane launched smoothly and within minutes Heart was glad he had listened as the world below him blessed his eyes with the prettiest green and blue waters, and lush, lush vibrant landscapes full of postcard perfect jungles and farmland below. The sky was a fresh clear blue, with puffy clouds that looked like dancing marshmallows. So perfectly fluffy you could see the outlines of both the top and the bottoms perfectly.
He had been wrong. Thailand was beautiful from the air and like nothing he had ever seen before.
Thanks for the new chapter!!!
