She gripped the armrests of her seat, her book forgotten, as the plane leveled out, her eyes squeezed shut. She smelled Old Spice and masculinity as her aisle buddy, Demetrio Pirozzi she recalled, leaned over and slid the shade on the window down.

Demetrio didn’t seem to get the memo. He started yammering about some kind of project his advertising agency was working on for Heritage Airways.
