Chapter 7
They entered the airplane and for Betty's surprise Daniel followed them to the tourist class and sited next to her.
She teased him "no first class for you, Meade?"
it wont be first class unless you are siting next to me he thought but instead grabbed her hand and teased back, kind of flirting "but if I am on first class, aren't you?"
She blushed at his hand holding hers and raised her eyebrows not quite understanding what he meant by that
When she was about to change the subject abruptly pointing out a bird standing in one of the airplane wings, the pilot was telling the passengers to fasten their seatbelt so he released her hand.
Minutes after the plane departured they started talking about Betty's family in Mexico, she told him about her aunt Mirta, and all her relatives.
She also told him about the 'curandera' and how she met her grandmother, she deliberately omited the Henry visions she had in the desert, just because she was completely over him and didn't want Daniel to know how she was affected by him in that time, and also the talk she had with her grandmother.
Betty had plenty of reasons to omit that, specially because she had never told him about why they parents leaved Mexico, and she wasn't completely sure if she wanted him to know or not.
Of course she trusted him, she thought, but she didn't want him to worry about something that happened ages ago...but that deep down still affected her, specially now that she was going where it all started to bury her parents.
So instead she told him about the language misunderstanding she had, by wanting to say that she was embarrassed and ended up saying she was embarazada, pregnant.
They laughed about that for a while, then he started talking about the twins, how would Wilhelmina raise them and stuff like that about his family
Later, when the conversation diminish and they remained silence, Betty pulled out her i-pod and said "want to hear some music?"she handled one of the earphones to him, who took it and put it in one of his ears
As she turned it on she said "they are all in Spanish for me to practice, hope you don't mind"
He just said "is not a problem, in fact I may learn some words"
The second the first song started and the singer started to sing about seduction, kisses and love amongst other stuff with Latin rithms. She thought great, listening to seductive songs sited next to your pretty hot,yes...not arguing about that, friend...you must be out of your mind! Its a great thing that he doesn't understand a word...but a voice in her mind said he may not, though he could read your reactions to the song lyrics andshe blushed as the singer sang
'procura coquetearme más y no reparo de lo que te haré'
So she said to herself, just stare at the window close your eyes and pretend you are sleeping, and so she did just when the singer sang
' procura no mirarme más y no sabrás de que te perderás'
oh! great is the singer reading my mind or WHAT?! Was the last thing she thought before changing the song, praying that the next one wasn't also about seduction, she smiled as she heard the rithm of a rock song with lyrics not-love and seduction related.
Despite that, she kept pretending that she was sleeping.
*
He was listening to the song, not understanding a word of it, well ok, maybe one he thought as the singer sang 'procura seducirme...' not the slightest idea of what 'procura' means...but 'seducirme' could mean seduction? Sounds similar...he thought before looking at Betty who was to busy looking at a spot in the sit in front of her, he could swear she blushed at the sound of that part of the song
When minutes later she changed the song into a rock one and closed her eyes he thought how can she possibly sleep listening to a rock song?
The answer came almost instantly when Betty totally catched by the lyrics of the song and oblivious of the fact that she was in a place full of people she started singing along with the song
At the sound of her voice in Spanish and singing he felt like the airplane had fallen into a sea of fire
Im in hell was the last thing he thought before putting the earphone that was in his ear in hers and went to the toilet to wash his suddenly red and sweated face, hoping that the water could also wash away the suddenly desire he had to kiss her.

A/N: Procura is a song by Chichi Peralta
Here are the entire lyrics of the song (I'm too lazy to translate them, but if you know Spanish also, you will understand why Betty was so nervous about it ;) if anyone wants to listen to it and cannot find them in Internet, ask me and I e-mail it to you)
Procura sedurcirme muy
despacio,
y no reparo de todo en el acto te hare.
Procura caminarme ya,
como ola del mar,
y y te aseguro que me hundo para siempre en tu rodar.
Quizas convenga que te alejes,
quizas
me domina la tentación,
de imaginar que estoy tan cerca de ti,
tan cerca sin poder resistir.
Coro
Procura coquetearme mas,
y no reparo de lo que te hare,
procura ser parte de mi,
y te aseguro que me hundo en ti,
procura no mirarme mas,
y no sabras la que te perderas,
es un dilema del que tu ni yo podemos escapar.--(biss)
Procura coquetearme mas,
y no reparo de lo que te hare,
procura ser parte de mi,
y te aseguro que me hundo en ti,
procura no mirarme mas,
y no sabras la que te perderas,
es un dilema del que tu ni yo podemos escapar
Procura mujer,que se aceleren mis latidos, procura mujer
procura mujer, y te aseguro que me hundo en ti, procura mujer
procura mujer, mi corazon se acelera, porque tu dia te llega, sabes que hay luna llena, procura mujer que se aceleren mis latidos, procura mujer
ir acercando tus labios,
coquetearme despacio,
procura mujer,que yo caiga en tus brazos,
procura mujer y te aseguro que me hundo en ti.. procura mujer
Procura mujer que se aceleren mis latidos, procura mujer
ir acercando tus labios,
coquetearme despacio,
procura mujer,que yo caiga en tus brazos,
procura mujer y te aseguro que me hundo en ti..
procura coquetearme mas,, y no reparo de lo que te hareeeee...
