"I need to use the restroom," I said.

"No, you don't, but it's okay... Go ahead." He smiled.

He was such an asshole!

And I was an idiot!

Why did I have to make such a fool of myself!

Couldn't I have paid more attention?

But he was talking like Jasper!

"You were mimicking Jasper..." I said.

"Talented, ain't I?" He said.

So... Now he was deciding to be funny!

"You knew I had a misunderstanding and still you didn't stop me! How could you do that?" I said.

"What?" He said, "You said... Oh Jasper? Are you also taking the same flight?" He said, "I was like ... Alright! Jasper it is!"

"I... I didn't expect you to be here!" I said, "And I was a bit drunk... And I... I was upset! I called off my engagement a few hours back and I was pissed off! What are you doing here anyway?"

Weren't his meetings so important?

"I don't know..." he said, "But I think it's fitting that we're flying right now... I mean, I'm literally on cloud nine after hearing so much praise about myself..." He chuckled.

He was having a little too much fun, wasn't he? I shook my head.

"I... I didn't mean all of that... I mean, I did mean a few things, but not everything... I was just upset..." I said.

"No worries... I understand!" he said, "Which part you didn't mean? The one where you doubted that I was gay... Or is it when you said I was having an affair with Tanya? Or is it when you said you'd have preferred to marry Jasper instead of me?"

"Just... stop!" I said as I put my hands on my ears.

I didn't want to hear this!

I wanted to... run away!

"God! I've never found you so adorable," He said while laughing.

Adorable?

I looked at him and raised my eyebrow.

"What?" He said.

"You are going to make fun of me for the rest of the flight, aren't you?" I said.

"Naah..." he smiled, "I plan to do it for the rest of our lives."
