As the engines roar to life, I sit stiff as a board with a bland
expression on my face, hoping to pull off the perfect ‘flying doesn’t scare
the shit out of me’ face. Unfortunately, it probably comes off as a ‘terrified
of flying’ face or resting bitch face. I love the destination parts of my
mother and stepfather’s family trips, but I hate the getting there parts.

The early arrivals to the airport are an inconvenience.
The forgetting to wear socks when going through security
and having to walk barefoot through the body scanner is
disgusting. You’d think I’d only forget that once, but it
happened again.
The hours of sitting thigh to thigh with a stranger while
watching every move the flight attendants make to ensure
they aren’t freaking out, so I don’t have to freak out
harder, is exhausting.
At least my brother is on one side of me which allows me to scoot
closer to him and farther away from the overweight, bald man who’s spent
most of our wait on the tarmac smacking his gum. Apparently, chewing
gum with your mouth open keeps your ears from popping. So he says.
What’s he going to do when we take off, and the gum has
disintegrated?
“Seriously?” Zayden nudges me with his elbow.
“What?” I glare at him out of the corner of my eye.
“You’re acting like a baby. We’ve already been on two other flights
today.”
“So what?” I shrug and shift from one butt cheek to the other. If it
was anyone else, I’d play it off that I’m not petrified of crashing in the
middle of a pasture with a floatation device wrapped around my neck. But
it’s Zayden, he knows when I’m full of shit. So, there’s no use pretending.
Granted, we’re getting ready to fly over the ocean, so the floatation
device will have an actual purpose during this leg of the flight. I shudder
involuntarily at the thought.
“You’ve flown before, so act like it.” He shifts lower into his seat
like he doesn’t have a care in the world.
“I don’t like flying,” I mutter under my breath as the flight attendant
goes through her spiel about all the safety equipment and who’s responsible
for rescuing the other passengers if there happens to be an ‘untimely’
landing.
‘Untimely’ landing? My teeth grind together. Her speech isn’t doing
anything to appease my fears, which is why I’m seated halfway between the
wing and the back of the plane. I don’t want to be responsible for anyone
else.
Ten minutes later, we’re off the ground and onto the final stage of
our journey. Soon, we’ll be in Saint Lucia, and I can forget the pain of
traveling until the return trip.
Every year, my mom and stepfather have a big celebration for
Christmas. A trip to a ski lodge one year. The desert another year. We’ve
often met at their house for games, ugly sweater contests, and white
elephant gifts. But this year, they’re going on a holiday cruise, so they
wanted everyone to get together for their anniversary.
