A passenger warning reflected light on my face. and I rubbed my eyes. I blinked a few times to adjust to the unpleasant brightness.

Turbulence ahead. Fasten your seatbelt.

Usual nervousness built up in my stomach and I started heavy breathing. I shifted uncomfortably in my seat and fiddled with my seatbelt and unbuckled it unmindfully. Memories of me being afraid to travel when I was a little girl, flew through my mind with lightning speed. Without realizing, tears started streaming down my face and I sniffed.

"For god's sake, Ophelia. It's just a turbulence. You are reacting like they just told you the plane is going to crash," I said while hiccuping and promising myself to never let loose again.

But as soon as I thought I was already over the whole panic attack thing, my whole body turned off and I slipped off from my seat. Blackness surrounding me.

"Miss,are you okay? Miss! Is there a doctor on board? Is there a doctor on board," asked the panicked lady who was sitting next to me through the whole flight.

I wanted to yell out I could hear her but my whole body was off. I couldn't get myself to open my eyes, or to say something.

Aubrey immediately turned his head and looked at the pleading lady. My helpless body resting next to her feet. He unbuckled his belt, earning a confused look from a steward who wasn't aware of my unconsciousness.

I heard a few people unbuckling their belts. A male voice yelling unrecognizable words for my  ears. Heavy steps nearing. The only thing my helpless body could do was panic.

"Sir, can you please return to your-" A steward's voice sounded, but soon was cut off. I felt someone kneeling next to me. The stranger moved and laid me back on the firm pathway.

"Are you a doctor?" the old lady asked untrustworthily.

"Seventeen years of CPR training. Can I ask you nicely to move back," he answered harshly without having the intention of being rude.

The woman on my other side grunted and moved away. A strong male hand was placed over the center of my chest. He placed his other hand on top of the first hand and started pushing straight down.
He gently tilted my head and opened my mouth, slowly waiting to feel my breath on his skin. But no breath sounds or chest movement came to indicate a sign of normal breathing. The chances of me having a heart attack were possible but he decided on doing a mouth-to-mouth breathing.

He covered my mouth with his, touching my now extremely cold lips. He repeated it until my eyes shot open and I started coughing in his arms.

She felt agonizing pain in her head and then my gaze fell on the same guy who had helped me earlier. His lips lifted into a half-smile as he probably realized I was replaying his first attempt to help me.

"Are you okay?" He asked worryingly.

I wanted to open my mouth and answer but my throat felt so sore, the only thing I could do was nod. Two blondes gave me some pills for my headache and a glass of water.

I didn't know why but I felt shame going through my body. I wanted to look tough in front of him but I had failed miserably as I realized in the last hour he had helped me two times. Second one, probably saving my life. Apparently, not all heroes wear capes. Mine was dressed my Tom Ford from head to toe, but that didn't really matter. I noted to herself to thank him later for saving me from any danger and forced myself back to sleep.
