Jonah's POV:-
I let out a short sigh as I stared out of the window of the plane. I already missed my family. It was hard for me to leave them in the first place since it was the I was leaving home ever but since it was my destiny there was no turning back. I pulled out earphones and was about to plug them in when an air hostess came up to me, smiling.

"Hi Sir. Welcome to Frederick Airlines", she said."Would you like anything to eat or drink?".

"Thank you", I said smiling back."And may I have the menu, please so I can decide?".

"Of Course Sir. I'll be right back with it", she said and quickly turned around going to the back room. She became a few minutes later with a booklet in her hand. She approached me once again and held it out.

"Here you go, Sir. Our menu", she said.

"Thank you", I said smiling at her.

I ordered my food and sat there, happily munching on it. Okay, I'm not really fond of planes themselves.... Actually I'm not fond of planes at all and actually would've preferred to travel by car but that would've taken me 27 hours give or take a few minutes but flying will take only 3 hours, actually if I stopped along the way in the car it would take me approximately... Okay, we're getting off topic here. What I'm trying to say is that the food on this plane is amazing. I mean I could totally live on this place.

After lunch, I plugged in my earphones and leaned back against my seat, watching the movie that was playing in front of me on a little screen behind the front passenger's seat.

After two more hours of torture the plane finally landed in LA. The partial reason why I hate planes might be because there's no room for you to stretch your legs and if you know I can't live without stretching or moving even for a millisecond. Okay, maybe that's an exaggeration but I still hate sitting still or lying down for long periods of time.

I grabbed my luggage and exited the plane. I spotted a taxi parked right outside the airport and smiled to myself. Guess this was my lucky day. I rushed towards the taxi and asked the driver for a ride. He nodded gesturing towards the back and I slipped into the seat. As I did, a young man about my age approached the taxi and began talking to the taxi driver who nodded his head and gestured towards the back again. The reason why he was asking his passengers to sit in the back was because he had a small kid sitting right beside him.

The young male got in beside me and we drove off. The blonde sitting beside looked quite familiar for some reason but I couldn't tell how and why. I had already given instructions to the driver as where to go and sat back silently, plugging in my earphones drowning every noise out.

Fifteen minutes later, I felt the taxi come to a stop and pulled out my earphones looking around.

"This is it. 1609. Elliott Drive", the driver said gesturing to a big house on our right.

"Thank you", I said and opened the taxi door getting out. I was so busy taking out my luggage that I didn't see that the young blonde who had sat beside me in the car was also getting out. Once the taxi had driven away, that's when I noticed him.

"Hi", I said smiling at him as I held out a hand"Nice to meet you. You live here?".

He extended his hand slowly and shook mine just as slowly like he was observing me.

"Kinda. Just moved in", he stated."Well, technically not yet but almost".

"Cool. Which house?", I asked.

"That one", he said pointing at the same house I was going to.

"Oh. Same house as mine", I said.

"What do you mean?", he asked

"I mean that we both will be staying at the same house", I said chuckling.

"Oh cool", he said grinning."So, what's your name?".

"Jonah", I said."What's yours?". Maybe knowing his name might give me a hint of why he seemed so familiar.

"Eben", he stated. His name sounded familiar too but it still didn't tell me what I needed to know. Why did he feel so familiar?

While talking we had walked up to the front door and I rang the bell twice. The door opened immediately revealing a young man who lead us both in and into the lounge.

"Welcome and take a seat. Mr.Ferguson will be right with you", he said before disappearing into a side room.

I sat down on one of the couches and leaned back. Now to wait for Mr. Ferguson.
