Kie's POV:

It had been eight years since I've seen JJ Maybank. We went our separate ways and I attended college on the other side of the country. I ended up hating my 9-5 job and became a flight attendant so I could travel the world cheap.

It wasn't my favorite job. I hated the job part of it, but I loved the layovers for a few days in different parts of the world. I woke up late today and I quickly got ready. I threw on my uniform dress and went to the airport. I was flying from New York to the Outer Banks and then to our final destination, Yucatan.

The first flight was uneventful and we had just finished boarding when I looked up and saw JJ Maybank sitting in one of the seats. He had a girl next to him and they were talking. That must be his girlfriend.

He saw me and our eyes locked, rows apart. One of my co-workers just finished the safety announcement and we all took our seats for takeoff. Once we were in the sky, we were serving snacks and beverages.

I got stuck on JJ's side of the plane. He pretended like he didn't know me. Except his fingers brushed against my legs and he looked at me. I gave them their drinks and I kept moving. A few minutes later, I saw JJ get up and head to the bathroom in the back of the plane.

I was working the back of the plane and he approached me and said, "Excuse me, there seems to be an issue in the bathroom. Would you mind taking a look"

I followed him back to the bathroom and the door shut behind us. Thankfully, no one saw me go in here. JJ locked the door and I asked, "What's the problem?"

"The problem is that I haven't seen you in eight years"

"You couldn't have said that in your seat?" I asked annoyed

"I didn't want the whole plane to hear"

"The whole plane? Or your girlfriend?"

"She's just a girl I met at the airport when we were boarding"

"Yeah, typical JJ" I said rolling my eyes

"So can we leave the bathroom now since there's no problem?" I asked growing more annoyed

We hit turbulence and I stumbled into JJ. Thankfully, he caught me and my body was pressed against his. He looked into my eyes and he asked, "Do you want to join the mile high club?"

"With you? No thanks, besides you're probably already the president of the club" I said leaving the bathroom

I went back to work and I couldn't stop thinking about what JJ said. Our flight was almost over and we would start our decent soon. I wrote on a piece of paper

meet me in the same bathroom in two minutes

I walked by his seat and slipped him the note. I went into the bathroom and I waited. I looked at myself in the mirror and realized how gross I looked after being in the air all day.

What was I thinking? This was an awful idea. JJ was my best friend. I've kissed John B and Pope before. I had sex with Pope before and it meant nothing. They were like brothers to me. I was never this nervous before.

I was stopped from my thoughts with a knock on the door. I opened it and JJ came in locking the door behind him.

"Looks like someone changed her mind"

"Shut up and kiss me" I said before I changed my mind again

His lips crashed into mine and I broke apart and said, "The seatbelt light goes on in five minutes and all passengers have to be seated so you better make this fast"

JJ didn't waste any time. He kissed me and he started sucking on my neck. He lifted my dress above my hips and he slid my underwear off as his fingers found their way inside me.

He slid his pants down just far enough as he inserted himself into me. This was incredible. I didn't want him to stop. I was moaning and he covered my mouth so no one would hear.

JJ and I both reached our highs and then we quickly fixed our clothing. I heard the seatbelt ding and JJ was about to leave first when he turned around and kissed me before he left.

I snuck out a few minutes later and prepared the plane for landing. We landed safely and the passengers all departed by aircraft. I finished cleaning everything and flipping it before the next group got on.

I grabbed my bag and I exited the plane and there JJ stood waiting. I walked up to him and I said, "You waited"

"Of course, I did... I haven't talked to you in eight years and we just had sex in the bathroom on the plane. We have a lot to talk about"

"Or we could just not ever bring it up again" I said starting to regret my decision

"Okay, I get it. You regret it... So I guess I'll see you around" He said turning to leave

"What are you doing here?" I asked curiously

"Here to catch some waves"

"Where are you staying?" I asked

"Don't know yet"

"Come back to my hotel with me" I said inviting him and he accepted the offer

We got to the hotel room and we both changed into our swimsuits and went down to the water. It was beautiful here. JJ grabbed my hand and we ran out into the water. He wrapped his arms around my waist and he kissed me. I kissed him back and he said, "There's nothing to talk about, it's fate we on that plane together"

"Fate, huh?" I asked as JJ didn't believe in that stuff

"Kie, I've missed you so much and I don't ever want to let you go" He said

I looked into his eyes and said, "Wow, proposing already"

"I love you and I want you, so what the hell..." He said getting down on one knee on the beach

"Kie, you've been the love of my life since I met you. I don't want to waste more time not being with you. I know it's been forever since I've seen you but it feels like no time has passed. I love you and I promise to love you forever. Kiara Anna Carrera, will you marry me?" JJ asked getting down on one knee and holding his pinky ring out

I laughed and tears flooded my eyes. I was terrified but part of me always had a soft spot for JJ.

"You're crazy, you know that"

"Crazy about you" He said remaining on one knee

I laughed and said, "Yes, I will marry you"

JJ jumped up and he hugged me then we kissed and it was a short but passionate kiss. He slid the ring onto my finger and he said, "I promise to buy you the diamond ring you deserve"

He kissed me again and he pulled back and I asked, "Can we get married here? On the beach, just the two of us"

"I'll make it happen" JJ said

We did a bunch of research and applied for a marriage license and then booked an officiant for tomorrow night at sunset. This was actually happening. JJ and I went into town and he found a shirt and I found a beautiful white dress. We also found rings. JJ got a black titanium band and he picked a beautiful diamond ring for me. We dropped a ton of cash on the rings.

JJ and I went out tonight for our last night before we get married. We had a few drinks and just caught up about life stuff in general. The next evening, we were getting ready for the wedding. 

JJ left the room and I went to the bathroom to put the dress on. It was just a simple everyday white long dress. I made finishing touches to my hair and make-up and I walked to the beach. JJ hired a photographer last minute. I walked down the aisle and the look on JJ's face was priceless. We made up our vows on the spot and they were beautiful. He had me crying and he was also crying. We kissed, took more pictures, and then we were officially married.

"I love you, Kiara Anna Maybank" JJ said holding my hand as we walked back to our hotel room

"I love you, Jackson James Maybank" I said using his full name

He smiled and he kissed me and said, "I can't believe we're married"

"Neither can I" I said kissing him

A week later, we were on a plane back home to OBX. My parents freaked out when they heard the news and so did the pogues. But it didn't really matter because I was happy and so was JJ.
