Bette: Well, you are in for a treat. We will guide you in what you need to do. Just relax and enjoy.

Tina looked at Bette and knew that she still had difficulties with takeoff and landings. And here she was trying to give Suzanne the impression that it was somewhat like an amusement park ride.  She wanted to giggle and even tease Bette about this but she knew from experience that a first-time plane ride could be a harrowing experience for some particularly if the least amount of fear was introduced into their mind. Tina decided to get Angie aside and have her assist Suzanne through this experience.

The golf carts came and took the foursome to their plane. Tina asked Angie to sit with her. Bette and Suzanne were talking about exams and how good it was to have a break as Tina began to talk to Angie quietly.

Tina: Angie, you need to watch Suzanne closely as we get ready to take off. If she is getting the least bit anxious, you need to assure her everything is going to be fine. Hold her hand if necessary as we take off. Talk to her about anything except flying. And keep her calm. Once we are in the air, we will be served our dinner. Then we are going to go to our berths and sleep. Encourage her to relax and sleep if she can. It will help with the time change and travel fatigue. And drink plenty of water.

Angie: Yeah, I can do that. I didn’t realize she had never flown before. Oh well, first time for everything.

Tina: Here we are. Let’s get on board.

Bette went up the stair-way first and went and took her suit case and set it in a chair and opened it up and got out a lounge suit and tennis shoes. She pointed to a seat and encouraged Suzanne to sit. Angie came in and sat next to Suzanne. Bette removed her shoes and put them in the suit case. The stewardess came in and Bette asked if she and Tina could change clothes in the galley or if the pilot’s cabin could have the curtain closed. The stewardess could see that they were ready, so she went forward and closed the pilot’s area off. Bette quickly stripped down to her underwear and put on her lounging outfit. Tina did the same.  Suzanne was staring at the half naked women.  They were both had toned bodies and were shapely. They quickly dressed, then put the clothes they were wearing into their suit cases and then put them into the overhead bins. They sat down and put on their sneakers and began to prepare for takeoff.  Tina indicated to Angie to help Suzanne with her seatbelt. Then the stewardess came and asked if they wanted a drink prior to taking off. Bette and Tina wanted some water. Angie and Suzanne said they wanted the same. It wasn’t long before they were taxing down the runway. Suzanne seemed excited rather than nervous, so Tina holding Bette’s hand was the only indication of nervousness. But since the two were affectionate normally, Suzanne thought nothing of it.
