No one's POV - 7:30am
*Sigh* ~ A soft puff of warm air flows through the plane, a pair of e/c eyes slowly blink at the view. "Only another hour and a half..." you gently mutter, is this where you truely wanted to be? Well no, the plane was freezing! You quickly pull your sweater sleeves over your hands... making some kind of... slap sleeve?

"Much better..." you smiled, now content. Despite the cold cabin. There was barely anyone here! Just you, the snoring man at the front of the cabin, the lovely lady knitting across from you and the poor screaming child at the back of the craft. His mother, god knows where.
You always had this soft spot for kids, I mean - yes. They were gross sometimes, loud and obnoxious - but they were just trying to express themselves! In all honesty, half the time the problem fell on the parents. Bad parenting and lack of attention or discipline was never a good mix. *sigh* another puff of air flowed from you, thoughts like these only reminded you of how lonely it would be at this new home of yours.

You'd have to do a major clean first, your furniture wouldn't be available until around 2:30-3pm from the shipping company, so you'd have plenty of time to clean... But then there's the issue of size, your home which you hadn't seen since you were 17, was fairly large. You come from a family where money wasn't an issue due to the engineering skill that seemed to run in the family, new projects would be everywhere all of the time! However, you refused to be silly with your money and only spent what you needed to. Originally you thought you'd be living with your Uncle Paul, your father's brother, but you're Y/A now, so you're more than capable of living alone. Plus he's constantly busy all the time. Rushing around taking account of the business and dealing with employee's and such. It must be a lot of work, so you'd figure it would be best to steer clear.

In the midst of your thoughts the seatbelt icon flickered on signalling the plane's descent, you were nearly there now. Clicking in your seatbelt you closed your eyes and relaxed, "nearly ther-" you whispered, interrupted by what looked to be, tumbling ball of mass fly down the cabin's aisle.
Curiously you peeked down before it clicked.
"Wait. CHILD!!" You freaked out, ripping off your seatbelt and very not so gracefully throwing yourself down the cabin, running towards the child who was now upside-side, against the door connecting the front of the plane to your cabin.
Bending down gently you slowly fixed the dazed child, you swore you could see the little birds flying around his little blond head. "Hey.." your voice soft, fully focused on the child in-front of you. - No response, too stunned.

You turned around and saw no one paying any interest into what had occurred, so you grabbed the child and gently lifted him, he weighed nothing compared to your tiny mechanical projects back at the University.
Walking back to where you thought he'd be, you clipped him in and ensured his safety before rushing back to your seat and clipping your own seatbelt, glancing back quite frequently to ensure that he wasn't going to just throw himself down the aisle again.

As the plane landed before the lovely flight assistant could start speaking you leapt up and enquired about the stunned child. - "Excuse me- Miss!" "Hang on, I haven't started-" she started in a bewildered manner.
"No no, there's a child here, who probably has a head injury from tumbling down through here -" you gestured to the floor. "He's back there, but I'm not sure where his mother is..." sighing heavily, the lady looked over your shoulder towards the direction you pointed. Nodding, she pushed passed you and attended to the child.

*Sigh* "Well he should be sorted now." You muttered, a small smile gracing your face as you grabbed your luggage and hopped off the plane. Let's go.

~ Time Skip, 2:45pm ~
- Your POV -
That should do it! I've finally cleaned most if not all of the house, from the front door, to the living room, to the right into the kitchen. Back out and upstairs into the main bedroom that will now be occupied by myself, the ensuite. The bathroom, laundry and little play area for god knows who. There's wires and stuff in there, I'll organise that stuff later. Luckily the people assisting with my stuff helped at least get it into the house so I don't have to walk up and down from the house to the road. That's pretty cool.
