chapter 4




Sitting up, I smile at him and try to remain cool, not like a total maniac. My whole body felt so warm. I could feel the heat rising on my cheeks and lighting my body on fire. I'd only just met him yesterday and already it felt like I'd known him all my life; like all this time, every decision I'd made in the last 24 years was to bring me to that moment when I first looked into his eyes. The moment I touched his hand. The moment I tasted his lips.
I tried to remind myself that a person can be gorgeous and charming whilst simultaneously being a serial killer, so I needed to pace myself.
"Is it okay if we take things kind of slow? I really like you, and I really like kissing you, I just don't want to rush into anything and then ruin any chance of this being something real, I mean not that I expect this to be something serious or-" He cut me off again, this time a little more delicately by leaning over and placing a soft, gentle kiss on my lips. Slowly, he pulled away, placing his large hands on my hips and his forehead against mine. "We can take this as fast or as slow as you want," he whispers, lips almost brushing against mine.
"I know when someone asks if you want to watch a movie that could easily be confused with asking you if you wanna have wild, unprotected sex, but in this case, I really did just mean a movie," he jokes, pulling me close and wrapping his arms around me. He's so tall, my head rests flat against his chest and I can feel him chuckling. I pull away, cheeks red and giggling like an idiot.
"Okay okay, so what movie were you thinking?" I remove my boots and get comfy on the bed.
"I don't really care actually. As long as I get to hold you while we watch it."
We spent the next hour sifting through streaming services and genres and debating on whether we should watch one of his own movies or not. By "debating," I mean that I asked several times and he answered with, "Absolutely not," each time. We eventually landed on something and settled into each other. He partially leaned against the headboard and left his arms open, inviting me to lay on his chest. I accepted the invitation and laid my head on his hard, sculpted chest and wrapped my arm around his waist, while my leg draped over his. I could feel his heart beating.
It had been so heated in the elevator, I was almost afraid of where the evening might go. But as we laid there together, bodies intertwined and looking at that screen, both pretending like we were paying attention to the movie, I felt so safe. We were both too exhausted from the flight to feed our sexual desires, and I was okay with that. I was happily content. As I was thinking about how much I liked him, I also remembered that this, being here in London, was all I'd thought about for so long. It was all I'd ever wanted and I was finally here. I couldn't wait for what this trip would bring. I felt my eyes get heavier as I drifted off to sleep, using the perfect chest of this perfect stranger as a pillow.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
At some point in the night, we'd both undressed to just our tops and our underwear. I woke up on my side with large hands gripping my waist and the front of Mike's body pressed to the back of mine. He was so warm. I could feel his breath on my neck and his morning wood pressed against my butt. Still waking up, I shifted my hips to the side, just to test the waters. He groaned softly.
"You know that I'm awake, right?" My eyes shoot wide open.
"I-um. I'm sorry." I feel my cheeks heat up and I move to get up. His hands hold me in place as he pushes his hips into my backside.
"I didn't mean that you should stop," he says, rubbing my hips and kissing my neck as he softly grinds into me.
"Is that okay?" "Better than okay."
I arch my back to press my ass down harder onto his hard-on. I feel his left hand move from my hips and travel along my body until he reaches around and cups my breast. I felt like a teenager all over again; like I was being touched for the very first time. As he massaged my breast, I twisted my head back to meet his lips in a kiss, taking him away from my neck. He moans into my mouth as I grasp his jaw, pulling him closer to me. In an attempt to be even closer to him, I break the kiss for only a moment to straddle him.
"Good morning to you too." He smiles at me before he kisses me again. I'm in a place between being asleep and awake; a purgatory of consciousness, and there's never been a more perfect moment to be kissed. It's still dark when I glance out the window, but I know the sun will rise soon, so I savor him.
The eagerness we both felt last night in the elevator has returned. He needs me just as much as I need him. I can feel him growing harder every time he grazes me. Feeling bold, I reach between us to touch him. Lightly at first, to see how he feels about it. When he moans into my mouth again and juts his hips upward, I know that means he wants more. I slip my fingers underneath the waistband of his underwear, touching him for the first time. I break the kiss and press my forehead to his. As I look into his eyes, I wrap my fingers around him.
"Is that okay?" "Better than okay."

chapter 3




“So, I googled you.” It was the first thing I could think to say. I wish I’d gone with “you look nice,” or maybe “good to see you again,” but I went with, “So, I googled you.”
“Did you find anything good?�� He was perfectly relaxed, and he really did look nice. Suit and tie, hair perfectly fluffy.
“Broadway isn’t exactly a small stage.” I said, easing into it. He could see where I was going with this.
“I liked that you didn’t know who I was. Also, I would’ve seemed like a dick if I’d read off my entire professional resume. ‘Did you want my extra bag of peanuts? Also, I wanted to let you know I was nominated for a Tony.’ I’d only bring it up in casual conversation if i’d won.”
"West Side Story isn't exactly a 'short film' either. There's pictures of you standing next to Steven. Spielberg." I talked about it like this was news to him, like it wasn't literally his life and his memories. He seemed amused.
"Are you angry I didn't tell you?"
"Not angry so much as just shocked. I assumed I was flirting with a super low-key struggle-for-your-art kinda guy. Not a guy who knows what Steven Spielberg smells like."
"Kind of citrus-y. Maybe a little earthy tone to it." I hated myself for all the questions I had to ask. But I couldn't not ask.
"So if you're that famous, how come you weren't flying on a private jet situation?"
"I'm not private jet famous. I mean, don't get me wrong, I definitely get recognized, it's just more by theater people. Dear Evan Hansen fans, West Side, Newsies, you get it."
"See, that was you reading off your professional resume. But I figured that's what it was. I was never super into musicals. I tried to be, I could just never get it to stick in my brain. I went in and out of a lot of phases as a kid." I was dying to ask more of the juicy details, but I couldn't. Not yet. On the other hand, I found myself just wanting to know more about him personally, and I wanted him to know more about me. All the lame stuff like his favorite color, his favorites movies when he was a little kid, what his parents are like, etc. But I also wanted to know what it would be like to touch him. To kiss his beautiful face. To breathe him in. I asked all the questions and I let him go on and on. He'd try to steer the conversation to something about me and I'd turn it right back around to him. Anything just to stare at that gorgeous face just one second longer. Dinner was coming to an end and I hadn't even noticed how much time had passed until he brought it up.
"I'm sorry, I feel like I've just talked about only myself for the last three hours. Is that a total turn-off?" He was so fucking adorable.
"You could talk to me about anything and it wouldn't be a turn-off." And I meant it too. He seemed to like this answer.
"So if I started to talk about calculus or hip dysplasia or microbiology, you'd still want to go back to my hotel room with me?"
"Do you even know enough about those things to have an actual conversation about them?" I was avoiding the question.
"You're avoiding the question.. and no, I don't. I'm a dramatic arts school drop out. Sexy, right?"
I was eager, and he could tell. "Are you ready to go now?" I asked, gaining confidence.
"I was waiting for you to say that." Mike quickly paid the bill and stretched his hand out to mine to lead me out of the restaurant and into the cool, London air. He placed his hand on the small of my back as we walked to his hotel. I began to feel so incredibly nervous. Would he want to see me again if I gave it all away so soon? Would he still respect me? Does he even respect me now? A million questions were flooding through my mind, but I did my best to just relax. I decided to take things slow and let him take the lead. Maybe I was over thinking everything and he was just leading me back to his hotel room so we could order room service dessert and watch movies together, fully clothed and sitting six feet away from each other on opposite ends of the room. Maybe I was completely delusional and nothing remotely exciting was going to happen.
When we got to his hotel and the elevator doors shut to take us up to his room, I felt the sexual tension. At that point, I didn't care if he respected me. I needed to touch him and I needed him to touch me. I started slow, taking my hand from his and reaching further up his arm to wrap my hand around his bicep.
"Are you nervous?" He was a mind reader apparently.
"A hundred percent. But I really like you. Really really like you. I'm trying to be present and in the moment and spontaneous, and-"
He cut me off by pressing each of his hands on the sides of my face, pushing my hair behind my ears and walking me back against the wall of the elevator. He looked into my eyes and whispered, so delicately, "I'm going to kiss you now, okay?" Him asking only made it a million times more attractive. Cheeks flushed and heart in my stomach, I could only nod. He pressed his lips to mine. Slowly, our mouths melted together as I wrapped my hands around his slender waist, pulling him into me. Needing him even closer than he already was if that was even possible. As we both grew more passionate, more needy for each other, the elevator doors opened to his floor. We both pull ourselves away at the sound of someone clearing their throat, clearly not prepared to walk in on the scene we'd created.
"Oh! Uh, um- we're very sorry," Mike says as he grabs my hand and pulls me out of the elevator, rushing me down the hallway while simultaneously fishing for his key in his pants pocket. I laugh so hard my stomach begins to cramp.
The second we're inside his hotel room, I feel myself being picked up and thrown over Mike's shoulder. Both laughing, he places me on his bed and leans over, propping himself up on his hands.
"So, how about a movie?"

chapter 2:




(reminder: this is my first writing anything ever! pls keep that in mind. another reminder, this is entirely a work of fiction based on Mike Faist. Enjoy! <3)
He was so pretty it was hard to make eye contact as I spoke to him.
"Emma," I say with a smile as I reach my hand out to shake his. He has a kind smile, I think to myself as his hand touches mine. With that, he puts his own things away and gets comfortable for the long journey ahead. As the remainder of the passengers board the plane and a flight attendant shuts the door, I feel my whole body tense up. In just a few minutes, the plane is going to take off into the sky, and I'm going to feel like I'm dying. I try to think of things to distract myself. The color of the airplane seats, the number of passengers I can see straight ahead of me, and whether I'm going to choose diet Coke or ginger ale when the flight attendant comes by later to offer us refreshments. All of my tactics work until I feel the plane begin to shift forward. Slowly at first, circling the tarmac towards the runway. Then, all at once; reaching over 100 mph. As I feel the plane lift off the ground and tuck its wheels under, I feel myself start to breathe quicker, and my eyes clench shut.
As the plane begins to climb in the air, I feel a hand grab ahold of mine that's been clenching the armrest since I sat down. "Are you okay?" Mike speaks softly, understanding the stress I'm obviously under. I nod, not really being able to talk.
"Squeeze my hand. Hard as you need to." He opens his hand up and I let my fingers intertwine with his, squeezing as hard as I want to, just like he said. I feel a little more comfortable in his presence. I gain a little confidence.
"Ask me something. Ask me anything." My own mind is no longer enough to keep me distracted. "What's your favorite color?" He asks. "Maybe something a little less personal," I tease, still clutching his hand. "Right, my bad. What do you think happens when we die?" He pushes back. "Purple," is all I can think to say. He laughs.
At this point, the plane has fully ascended into the air and we're coasting at a steady pace.
"Thank you for that, really. I've never been good with that part of the flight. Or the coming back down, now that I think about it. So I'll be needing you again in about ten hours." He chuckles and rubs circles onto the back of my hand with his thumb. At this point, I realize I'm still holding on very tightly to his hand. I could've held onto that hand for the rest of my life. However, not wanting to appear creepy, I politely gave the man his hand back.
"So what brings you to London?" He asks. "Personal trip, actually. I've always wanted to go. I've been saving up for years. What about you?"
"I'm actually going for work. I'll be in play on the West End." That really caught my attention. "Really? What play?" He could've said he was going on a business trip as a data reconfiguration analyst and I still would've hung on to every word he said, but an actor in a play was so unbelievably cool.
"You ever seen Brokeback Mountain? Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger? Gay cowboys?"
"Duh? So someone turned it into a play? That's SO cool. So who are you playing?" I asked, now fully intrigued.
"Jack, actually! I'm really excited." He smiled proudly, as he should have. "Woah! Well, I've been dying to see a play on the West End. Maybe I'll get tickets to come and see you."
"You should! Seeing at least one friendly face in the crowd would be nice." He smiles at me again, the most beautiful, tight-lipped smile.
I feel my cheeks heat up. "So is acting a full-time gig, or do you have anything else to keep you busy?" As soon as the words leave my mouth, I realize how insulting that must sound. He smirks back at me as my eyes get wide, realizing how rude I just was. I worry I've ruined this whole flirtatious interaction we've been having. Luckily, he just chuckles back at me and says, "Um, you know I haven't been asked that question in a long time. I suppose acting is it for me at the moment."
"Just stage plays, or anything I might've seen?" I quickly recover.
"Yeah, mostly stage plays. A couple of short films, nothing serious." He was being modest, I could tell. But I didn't push any further.
As the flight went on and I stared out the window, it began to feel very difficult to keep my eyes open. I closed my window, allowing myself to drift away.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I felt a warm breath on my face as I woke up. I look to my left and see that Mike has laid his head on my shoulder as he's fallen asleep. I stare at him as long as I want to, as he's not awake to catch me admiring him. I glance out the window, looking out into the night sky a couple of times, before continuing to memorize every detail of his gorgeous face. I see his lips start to upturn into a smile.
"You like me." He says, matter of fact, with his eyes still closed. "You think I'm really cute and funny and you like me."
"Were you awake the entire time I was staring at you?" He opens his eyes. "The entire 45 minutes? Kind of. I was in and out. You definitely like me." He finally looks up at me.
"Were you always this bold or did you develop that in the theatre?" I say, gaining some confidence of my own.
"In the theatre, definitely. I never would've had the confidence to look a girl like you in the eyes before, let alone speak to you without stuttering." He said, taking his head off my shoulder.
The boys I'd dated in my hometown never made me feel pretty, but Mike, the theater boy from the plane, made me feel absolutely breathtaking. I couldn't help but smile. It scared me, the feelings I had for this man that were developing so quickly.
"Well, you like me too. Otherwise, you would've found my staring incredibly weird and off-putting, so." He laughs yet again. I love making him laugh.
"You're not wrong. I want to know more about you. I know your name is Emma and your favorite color is purple. Are you from Ohio? Or was that a connecting flight, maybe?" My heart was starting to race a little bit. "I am from Ohio, actually. I grew up about 30 minutes from Columbus, in Gahanna. You know it?"
I watched his eyes get wide and his smile get even wider. "I grew up in Gahanna. I actually was just here for a few weeks visiting my family." I cocked my head to the side.
"No shit? Small world, huh? How come we've never met?"
"How old are you again? What year did you graduate high school?" He began to look a little cautious.
"24! I graduated in 2017. What about you?" He seemed to relax a little bit.
"I graduated in 2009, but it was a year early, so I was originally class of 2010. I turned 31 in January. Is it weird that I still like you?"
"Not even a little bit. It'd be weird if I was five years or so younger." I smiled at him and laid my head on his shoulder this time.
"Good. Because I really really like you. Would you want to get dinner sometime while you're in London?" I watched him think for a few seconds. "Actually, how long are you staying, now that I think about it?" "I'll be here for about 2 weeks. What about you?"
"It really depends on how well the show is doing, but probably through the whole summer." He lifted his arm so I could lay my head on his chest as he wrapped his arm around me. A bold move, but I felt comfortable with him for some reason. A flight attendant came over the intercom and announced that we'd be landing soon. As we landed, I gave him my phone number so he could message me when he wanted.
"I'd love to get dinner, just let me know when," I told him as we both gathered our belongings. After about twenty minutes or so, we were finally able to deplane. I looked at him, suddenly feeling attached, hoping this wasn't the last time I was ever going to see him.
We walked together through the long process that was getting out of the airport. As we walked out into the cool air of the London night, we turned to each other and he promised to see me soon. I hoped he was telling the truth. He kissed me on the cheek and lingered, only for a moment, then smiled at me and got into a taxi, waving goodbye.
My cheek felt so warm. I already missed him.
He messaged me about an hour later, as I got settled into my hotel room.
"So, how's tomorrow night?" I think I'm in love.

chapter 1:
(A mike faist fanfic set in spring 2023, as mike is headed to london for the summer to star in Brokeback Mountain. He meets a girl on the plane there, Emma. He falls in love with Emma instantly. Read more to see how their story unfolds. <3)
Disclaimer: this is entirely a work a fiction and has nothing whatsoever to actually do with mike faist.




Rolling out of bed at what I thought was around six in the morning, I began to get dressed and prepare myself for how anxious the airport was going to make me. I’d never been a good flier, especially on flights that lasted longer than a couple of hours. Today, I was set to leave on a 9 hour and 50 minute flight from Columbus, Ohio to London at 10am. This trip was my gift to myself. I’d always wanted to go to London and do every lame tourist activity that I’d always seen in the movies. I wanted to stand outside the gates at Buckingham Palace, attend a service at Westminster Abbey, take a ride on the London Eye, maybe even fall in love with an adorable English man and never go back home to Ohio. I’d been saving for this trip since I got my first job at fifteen. I’d imagine what it felt like to walk through Hyde Park and see a play on the west end while I scooped an ungodly amount of ice cream for strangers.
The hardest part is surviving the flight there. I made sure to get up insanely early and have some me-time before the flight to try and relax myself as much as possible. After fixing myself a cup of coffee and scrolling through my phone for a solid 15 minutes or so, I decided to take a hot shower. This would be an everything shower, seeing that there's no way I could bring along my arsenal of bath products. But I let myself take it slow. After I finished washing and conditioning my hair, I shaved, scrubbed, and exfoliated every inch of my body. I loved the way it felt to be clean and smooth. Especially clean. I had to be clean to feel like my best self and I had to feel like my best self to be relaxed enough to not have an absolute meltdown on this almost ten hour flight I was scheduled to be on.
By 7:30, I was all ready to go with an uber waiting outside to take me to the airport. I had two weeks worth of clothes, my favorite blanket and pillow in my carry-on, and most importantly, my anti-anxiety medication for when I inevitably begin to panic as soon as the plane door shuts. I was anxious, but also so overwhelmingly excited. I wasn’t going to let my anxiety stand in the way of the trip I’ve been fantasizing about for almost ten years. Not when I was so close.
Flying wasn’t a new experience to me. There’d been plenty of times when I was a kid that I went on flights with my family, mostly to visit my grandparents in Florida. But this was different. This was around the world. Flying to London also meant going through customs, which was an entirely foreign concept to me. But I was there and I was ready. First things first, I thought to myself as I made my way to my gate after going through TSA, a snack. I bought a latte and a ridiculously overpriced bag of chips and made my way back to my gate to get comfortable. I still had about 30 minutes until my flight was supposed to begin boarding, so I put on my headphones and played some soft music on my phone. Everything was going to be okay, I kept telling myself. It is so incredibly unlikely that my plane is going to crash, I just need to keep myself distracted and everything will be just fine.
Those 30 minutes went by faster than I expected, and it was time to board. I gathered my things and made my way to the gate.
“Excuse me! I think you left this behind.” I turned around to the most beautiful face I think I’ve ever seen. Beautiful blue eyes, thin, almond-shaped eyes and a jawline that was so perfectly sculpted. In a hurry to board, I’d left behind my carry-on bag that contained all my essentials. Phone charger, comfort pillow and blanket and anti-anxiety meds.
“Oh, thank you so much!” And then I thought about it. “How’d you know it was mine?” I asked the handsome stranger.
“Oh, it just seems to match the rest of your luggage, I guess.” I had a sense that he’d maybe looked my way a couple of times while also waiting to board the plane. Even if I was being totally delusional, it was a nice confidence boost to assume that’s what happened.
“Right! Well thank you. You boarding this flight too?”
“Yeah, actually. After you.” He motioned in the direction of the gate attendant waiting patiently for us both to present our boarding pass and board the plane. Without looking behind me, I walked past the gate and down the long hallway to board the plane into business class to find my seat. I splurged a little and went one step past economy class. I had a lot of time to plan and save, you see. As I settled into my seat, I popped an anti-anxiety pill immediately. If I needed to later, I was also going to take a sleeping pill to hopefully make the flight go as fast as possible. As I was taking my pillow and blanket out of my bag to get comfy and settle in for the long plane ride ahead of me, I looked up to see that gorgeous stranger again.
“Looks like we’ll be getting to know each other a little better.” He smiles as he sits down in the seat right next to mine. He’s so close I can smell his expensive cologne and I wonder how I got so lucky.
“I’m Mike, by the way.���

SMOKING ALTERS BRAIN CHEMISTRY.
Right now, smokers’ dopamine receptors are frying, decreasing their sense of pleasure, memory, thinking and awareness.
Cigarettes begin messing with your brain’s chemistry within seconds of smoking. More specifically, 10 seconds. That’s how long it takes for nicotine to reach the brain. (1)Once it does, it raises the levels of a chemical called dopamine in the parts of the brain that produce feelings of pleasure and reward.(2) But the feeling is fake and temporary. After just a few hours without tobacco, the body goes through nicotine withdrawal symptoms (aka a nic fit) that can include being in a bad mood, feeling depressed or anxious, trouble focusing or sleeping, and being hungrier than usual. (3) It’s like putting your body on a roller coaster ride with a 50/50 chance it will crash – from a painful and deadly disease.
