Here's another Blainchel fanfic. I'm sorry if you're sick of my stories, but I can't help but write them. :) Also, I'm not trying to be insensitive and I mean no disrespect to the people who died during 9/11. This is just a story. Anyway, here it is! Enjoy

Up in the Air
Chapter 1
"Hello everyone and welcome aboard United Airlines Flight 93 to San Francisco International Airport. We're very sorry about the delay and we thank you for your patience. In a few minutes, we will be serving an inflight meal and movie. My name is Rachel Berry and on behalf of Captain Finn Hudson and his co-pilot, Noah Puckerman, we welcome you on board United Airlines Flight 93. Thank you for choosing United Airlines!" Rachel Berry nearly slammed the intercom back in its place and sunk to the floor. She hated having to say that over and over each time the plane would take off.
"Rachel! Get of your ass and help me with these damn trolleys!" her friend, Tina Cohen-Chang called. Rachel groaned as she heaved herself off the floor. Tina was packing a trolley with food and drinks.
"Come on! We'd better hurry up, or else Quinn will have our heads!" Rachel shuddered at the thought of having to face Quinn's wrath. She was had reached Senior Flight Attendant before Rachel and Tina-even though she had joined laterthan them-and thought that she was God's gift to the world.
"Alright, alright. Just give a sec will you? "Rachel called as she headed to the mirror to make sure that her hair and makeup were still perfect.
"I still can't believe that Quinn got Senior faster than us." she heard Tina grumble under her breath. Rachel just laughed.
"It's only because her relationship with a certain captain is very very healthy." she called out. Rachel heard Tina laugh as she adjusted her blouse. It was well known that Quinn was together with Finn, and Finn was very well connected with people. As she fixed her skirt, Rachel eyed her badge. She put her hands down as memories flooded her mind. Rachel felt her eyes water as she gave herself one final check. This was her last flight, after this, she was going to chase her dream of being a Broadway star. It was a gutsy move, and she knew that it would take some getting used to; especially after always having money in the bank and food on the table, but it was what Rachel had always wanted, and while Tina hadn't fully embraced the idea of being all alone with Quinn on flights, she had wished Rachel the very best of luck.
"Last flight." Rachel said as she walked over to Tina. Tina stopped packing the food cart and turned to face Rachel.
"C'mere!" she said as she opened her arms up for a huge hug. Rachel went in. They had been best friends since they were High School and had been there for each other through everything; success', defeats, love and heartbreak. They had been in Glee club together and had signed up to be Flight Attendant's together. Rachel felt tears on the back of her uniform and had to push her away.
"Come on Tina. No tears. I want to look my best on my last flight. We'll get all sentimental later." Rachel playfully hit her friend on the shoulder before quickly packing a trolley fully of food.
"Oh don't worry, me and some of the others have something planned. Trust me when I say, you're going to go off with a band." Tina told her mischievously. Rachel just laughed as she strode out into the aisles.
