Off to london

*Shayna P.O.V*

Laura wakes me up, I look at the alarm clock and the red angry numbers tell me it's 4:25am.

I groan and roll back over ignoring her tapping my shoulder. The tapping turns into more of a punch and eventually she drags me out. I land on the floor and hit my head it starts throbbing.

"OUCH CHARLIE" I scream

Laura is laughing hard and it makes me laugh.

"You said ouch Charlie" she says out of breath from laughing.

"You always used to say that" she says and starts laughing again

"It just slipped out I don't even know what it means, who's Charlie?" I ask and scrunch up my nose.

This makes Laura laugh even harder.

"C'mon Charlie lets go get this plane"

I grasp her hand and she pulls me up off the ground.

We have some food, she calls it breakfast. She pours me a glass of orange liquid and calls it orange juice. Then we make 'toast' it's really fun. When the toast pops up I jump a little, wasn't expecting that.

I think about how it's weird that I know some names of things, but not others. Anyway once were full we grab our suitcases and put them in the lounge room.

Matt starts to wake up, he looks up from the couch with his eyes squinted.

He looks down at his watch and his eyes widen.

"We have to be at the air port in half an hour!" He says and jumps up from the couch running to have a shower.

Laura and I sit down next to each other on the black couch, she turns on the t.v and we wait for matt. An advert for a tv show comes on its called "hot30 countdown" a snippet of five good looking teenage boys are singing. There on the beach and there really good, well I think they are. This must be a music show I think to myself. Laura looks at me like she's expecting something, but all I do is give her a questioning look. She sighs slightly and we go on watching some mindless television.

Soon after matt comes out with a fresh shower smell. He gets my suitcase for me and we go to the back door locking it as we go out. Laura opens the back door of the car for me and i hop in. the car is a faded blue with rust it looks really old. it has a big red P on the windscreens and is pretty squishy inside. Laura gets in beside me and matt is driving. I honestly have know idea where were going, all I know is I'm going to London wherever that is. I think about how things would be different if I still had my memory, but I guess I have to put up with it for now.

The drive goes by in a blink. In no time we arrive at the airport.

"Wooow" escapes my lips.

I look around with wide eyes.

It's huge I've never been to an air port well at least I can't remember. There are cars, busses, taxies and people every where. We walk over to the entrance in big letters across the building it says Sydney airport. I go to open the huge glass doors, but before I can they open by them self.

"MAGIC DOORS" I scream.

I get a few strange looks from the people walking past, but I'm so excited I don't care. I run through the magic doors followed by the others. We come to some stairs, but there MOVING.

"Magic stairs too" Laura chuckles, she must of seen the excitement on my face.

We go up the moving stairs, it was much fun. There are so many people at this place though, I feel like a tiny ant.

We then arrive at a counter after waiting in a line. The counter is orange and white with a small plump woman sitting behind it. She had this black laser thing in her hand and she points it at our suitcases that are on a black table thing. Then there's more magic! It flashes red and beeps, she beeps the tickets matt gave me and then our bags disappear into a room by the moving table. This is pretty cool I think to myself.

Finally matt takes us to a large room with lots of people on small black seats. He turns to me with a smile.

"Shayna have the time of your life" he says and places his hands on my shoulders,

"And be safe in London, don't go to wild"

"Wait," I say "this isn't London? I thought this was it, I mean there's heaps of cool stuff here."

Both matt and Laura laugh

"London better be better than this" Laura pipes up

"Anything is better than the Sydney airport" matt adds

" any way you two have a great time and ill see you when you come home"

He hugs both of us and wave goodbye as Laura takes me down a corridor. It leads to a metal doorway with a pretty girl in a fancy uniform standing at it.

"Hello welcome to Qantas airlines have a nice flight" she says in a confident voice.

She looks at our tickets and gestures down what looks like a massive bus. I mean MASSIVE I can't even see the back it's that big.

"We're seat 34A and B it's down the back somewhere" Laura explains

I follow her down the narrow passage way. We finally come to our seats, I'm on the window side. I look out wooow this is a high bus. The same lady who greeted us starts taking through a microphone. I don't really listen I'm too busy looking at the booklet that's in a pocket in front of me. It's has instructions about life jackets and gas masks which is really weird for a bus.

We start moving and it gets faster and faster I start to panic. What if we crash? We're going a lot faster than a bus should go. Then as it peaks it's speed I feel us going up and the ground go beneath me. I look out the window panicked, then it hits me were flying!

Laura's laughing her head off, I'm squeezing her hand and I must have a really shocked look on my face. She tells me all about planes how there safe and hundreds of people fly every day. I begin to relax, the trees and buildings are getting smaller and smaller. we start to get really high above the clouds, its like another world. A place that you dream about, they look so soft and cuddly. I yawn, it's still very early and I realise how tired I am. Laura tells me we still have over a day untill we arrive, so I let my tiredness get to me. I begin to think maybe London isn't as close as I thought.
