As soon as they boarded the flight, Akira noticed that the two seats on the next side to them was also empty.

"Ah great! We would be so lucky if these seats go empty!" she quipped.

Raymond just gently smiled and softly tapping on her head he said, "I wish so too."

As the flight attendant helped them keep their bag overhead, they both settled into their seats. Even the seat numbers were the same as before for them, number 5 and number 6.

Raymond buckled her with the seat belt and mumbled, "Now you can't run from me."

"You have already tied me," she said, and extending her hand in front of him, she showed him the marriage ring that she wore in her hand. Seeing her beautiful slender fingers and that ring adorning her finger, he sighed and settled back in his seat.

'Life was beautiful again.'

She removed the armrest in between and rested her head on his shoulder. He looked at her fondly and then asked,

"Would you like to watch the Notebook?"

She slowly lifted her head up and looked into his eyes, amazed by the lengths to which this man was going to make her happy. But to his surprise, she shook her head and grabbed on to his arms with her hands and said,

"I just want to rest my head on your shoulder like this. That's all I need right now. And I don't want anyone to be seated next to us," and she checked her watch again and eagerly looked at the door to be shut close.

He softly exhaled on top of her head and said,

"No one is coming. I have booked even the row ahead and behind."

Amused, she lifted her head up and looked at him for a second and then whispered,

"That a hell lot of money in the drain Mr. Raymond Walker!"

"Then you better make it worth my money!"

He slowly wrapped his left arm around her, bringing her close to his chest and then said,

"Can you believe that three years back, we sat apart from each other? Complete strangers who didn't even know each other's names! I bet you didn't even want to see me ever again."

"That's not true!" she said and started drawing random lines with her index finger on his chest.

"Really!" he exclaimed out of surprise.

"Uh... hm... I mean you were quite intimidating with your look and all, but ..."

"But?"

"Ermm... I found you quite magnetic!"

"I am listening!" Said Raymond with a hint of surprise and happiness in his voice. He had always known that he was drawn to her in the first mee itself, but he always had assumed that she hadn't taken much notice of him, given that she was in a bad state.

So when Akira said those words, it came out as a huge happy surprise for him.

"Well, I was never gonna tell you this, but do you remember there was a moment between us when I had walked out of the washroom."

"I remember!"

"There was something about your eyes. I don't know, I can't explain, but it was something. I felt something."

"I know. You went to the washroom to freshen up and when you came out, you had that shiny pink tint on your lips. God, I wanted to kiss your lips so bad!"

"Jeez Ray! You didn't even know me then. We didn't even have our first proper conversation by then."

"So what Akira? The heart wants what it wants!" he said and ran his thumb over her lips.

"Umm.... don't do that. We are about to take off."

"Sure! I will wait till the lights are dimmed."

"You piece of shit!" and she slapped his face softly with her hand.

And then there was the announcement as the doors were being closed. The lights were dimmed and the seatbelt sign was switched on.

As the flight sped through the runway, she sat upright and took his hands in her own and giving a kiss she said,

"Thanks for the best possible honeymoon that I could ever have imagined."

He glanced at her. The dim lights made her look even more pretty. Kissing her hand, he said,

"It's just the beginning."

And saying that he leaned towards her.

Holding the side of her face he brought her close and kissed on her lips. Her chest rose and fell like the waves of the ocean. Her hands slowly moved up and grabbed onto his hair. She had to control herself real hard to stop herself from moaning. She was completely immersed in that kiss when he slowly pulled himself apart.

"What?" she mumbled and looked at him.

He gently licked her parted lower lip and said, "You will see!"

Softly grazing that lower lip of her with his teeth, he pulled the blanket out and removed it from the cover and covered her lower body with it.

"Remove your shoes!" he muttered close to her ears as he covered her.

"What are you going to do Raymond? We are in a goddamn flight!" she mumbled as she pulled out the straps of her heels.

"Tonight we aim to please you, Mrs. Walker. My body is at your service."

She looked at his eyes, and she could see them burning and in the next moment, she could feel his palm on her knees under the blanket.

She gulped on her spit and held on to the side handles firmly.

Hovering over her face, breathing on her lips he whispered.

"Close your eyes for me and just feel!"

A bit scared, a bit excited in anticipation she closed her eyes.

His hand moved up and softly grazed her inner thigh. She was biting her lips now, restraining that moan inside her that just wanted to explode out from her body.

His hand was now busy riding up that skater dress of her, slowly lifting it, making her accessible to his restless hands, which just wanted to take a deep dive inside the warm wetness of hers.
