The flight took off. Dimitri sat opposite to me, Lissa sat next to me and Adrian was sitting a little front drinking.

Dimitri kept staring at me hoping to catch my eye but that was not going to happen. I looked everywhere but at him. Soon he gave up. Suddenly the plane shook. I gripped the seat in surprise. Dimitri go tup to see what was happening. He returned a few minutes later, a worried look on his face. His expression made me forget our fight.

"What's happening?" I asked worried.

"Its raining. The pilot cant see anything" he said

"Is everything alright with the plane?" Lissa asked.

"I don't know for sure" he said, sitting down.

The plane shook again. Suddenly, I heard thunder and then a loud crash. It had hit the wing of the plane and now we were hurtling down to the ground in full speed.

Dimitri got up and ran to the pilot's cabin. He returned with airbags and parachutes.
There were four. My stomach churned as the flight tilted a little.

"Put this on" Dimitri commanded, throwing one to Adrian, Lissa and me. My fingers trembled as I fought to put on the safety gear. Dimitri pushed my hands away and tied the strings tightly. Running a hand through his hair, he said "we have to jump". His eyes met mine. I looked at Lissa. She was literally crying.

I hugged her tightly while Dimitri and Adrian opened the valve. The air gushed out.

First Adrian jumped. I watched in fright as he flew down and then his parachute opened. Then Dimitri sent Lissa. Now it was my turn. I clutched Dimitri's hand in fright. "Roza, nothing's going to happen to you. I am here, ok?" he said as he quickly plaited my hair. Then I jumped. I pressed my parachute button in fright. It opened a minute later. The parachute slowed down my fall and I sighed in relief. Then Dimitri jumped. I saw him fall lower than me. He pressed his parachute button but nothing happened.

"Dimitri! " I screamed.

He pressed the button again and again but to no avail.

I saw him hurtling down at full speed and closed my eyes unable to see it anymore. I heard Lissa screaming and Adrian shouting something.

I opened my eyes and saw Dimitri tumbling. Then I fainted.

I opened my eyes to find myself in a hospital room. I laid there for a few moments recollecting my thoughts. I closed my eyes and saw the picture of Dimitri tumbling through the sky. Dimitri. Was he alive? Was he dead? I couldn't imagine how it all happened in the blink of an eye. I sat up in my bed.
Just as I was about to put my feet down, Adrian entered.

"Adrian!" I said, gasping in relief. "What happened?" I asked. "Is Lissa and Dimitri okay?"

"Lissa's alright. Dimitri…" he trailed off.

"What happened?" I asked again, my heart full of fear.

"Rose…." Worry filling his clear green eyes.

"Adrian. Tell me please" I said.

He shook his head and looked down. I got out of bed and pushed past him. What had happened to Dimitri?

"Rose! You aren't supposed to walk!" Adrian said following me.

I walked into the next room. Lissa got up as she saw me.

"Rose…" she said. I didn't hear her though. My eyes were on the bed. On Dimitri.

Dimitri was lying there; his head was covered in plaster. I ran to his side, taking his hands in mine.

"Is he….is he alive?" I asked, looking at Lissa.

She nodded.

I nearly stumbled in relief. Adrian quietly took Lissa out of the room.

I leaned closer to Dimitri. "Dimitri. Please wake up. For me…" I said.

No reply. I leaned more closer. His warm breath hit my face making me shiver slightly. I clasped his hands more tightly. I leaned over and kissed his forehead. When I leaned back, I met two dark orbs of chocolate.
"Rose..." he whispered.

"Shhh….I am here." I said, resting my hands on his cheek.

He closed his eyes, a slight smile on his face. I never left his side throughout the day. I learnt from Adrian that we were in a hospital in Ukraine. The hospital had no idea who me and Dimitri were. I didn't really care. The doctor made periodical checks on me and Dimitri.

"You need to sleep" she whispered to me. I glanced at Dimitri. He was asleep.

"I am alright. He should be the person sleeping"

"He is sleeping. He has been sound asleep for an hour."

"I don't care. I am staying near him" I said

"Young lady, I have no idea who you are but I am a doctor and you should listen to me" she said sternly.

" I said I don't care." I said raising my voice slightly.

"Look lady, he is alright. Yu needn't care so much about him" she said in her regular voice.

She was right. I shouldn't care so much. I didn't reply.

She smiled a little knowing she has hit the right spot. " Tell me, who are you to him" she asked.

I looked down.

"who are you?" she replied.

I raised my head. "I am his wife" I said.

Sorry I haven't updatd in a while. and justimagine that there were flights back then . :D
