I was nervous. I didn't notice until someone sat down beside me and placed their hand on my shoulder. "You okay?" It was a deep yet calm voice, it felt familiar which helped me relax a bit. I snapped back to reality and nodded quietly. "I saw you earlier, while you were waiting in line to pay for your ticket." He let go and sat back in the chair beside me. This time I got a good look at him. He looked roughly about my age, probably a little older. He brushed his fingers through his silky dark brown hair which let me see the kindness in his green eyes. He also had this smirk he so causally wore. "I noticed that we're headed the same way... Mind if I hang with you, I'm traveling alone and it's my first time by plane." I too sit back in my chair and face him. I move my dark hair out of my face and push my glasses back a bit. "Sounds fine by me." We both smile and begin talking. I introduced myself. I told him I was 16, My name is Daniela and what not. Turns out his name was Keenan and I was right. He was 17, just a year older than me. We continues to make small talk and had quite some stuff in common. We both were obsessed with all things rock or metal and our taste in music was pretty similar. He was also a Deathbat, which makes us friends automatically. We both fangirled over band members for a good half hour while we waited in our seats. Finally we were called out. Our flight was ready and we were officially on our way. I was headed to Cali to meet someone special to me being accompanied by a sweet but complete stranger. Just like any sane 16 year old. We begin to walk towards our designated gate. I take a deep breath to try and put the butterflies in my stomach at ease. It's now or never. I think to myself, just remember why you're doing this Dani. And once I got to thinking I was ready to continue what I had started. I was on my way.
