As I struggle to roll my two heavy suite cases through the JFK National Airport, the only thing I can think of is how I let my mother actually convince me to go on this stupid trip in the first place!

"Today is the day."
I chant slowly in my head.

Today is the day our senior class takes our two week long trip to London. Even though a good portion of me feels like this trip is going to be a total bust, a tiny party of me is thrilled to have the opportunity to travel outside of the U.S. and explore what's out there.
I look at my plane ticket trying to locate what terminal I'm supposed to head to.
Then the intercom system comes on and a ladies voice plays out over the PA system saying:

"UK air, Flight 433, at Terminal 24, Destination London, England. Your flight has now begin boarding."

I look down at my ticket and let out a string of profanities. That's the flight I'm supposed to be boarding! I grab the handles on my luggage and start running. As I'm weaving in and out of the Crowd trying to hold on to my bags I'm trying to locate my terminal.

*Terminal 17*
*Terminal 21*
* Terminal 23*
"Ah I must be getting close. It has to be the be next one ov.." *ooph*

*Did I just run into a wall?*I thought to my self as Tried to realize what just had happened.

I look over and see my bags on the floor mixed in with 2 other big dark red suitcases and I look around trying to see who they might belong to when I hear a string of curse words let out from the right of me. I look over and saw a guy, He looked around my age, maybe a year or two older, tanned olive skin, hazel Green eyes, and black hair that was parted on the left and slicked back, he looked like a male model!
It took me a second to put the pieces together but then it hit me, I must have totally ran into this guy and knocked him over.
I got up to dust myself, collect my bags, and hopefully dish out a very sincere apology to the guy for knocking him over. But green eyes beat me to it. He looked at me with a look of disgust and irritation as he made his way over to me he fiercely started grabbing
His bags and yelling at me:

"HOW COULD YOU BE THAT BLIND, TO JUST RUN INTO PEOPLE LIKE THAT, HUH !?!?"

"It.." I barely made out before He cut me off,

"Save your apologies, next time just watch where the hell your going and try not to run me over again in the process. K."

He stormed away, leaving me in his wake gawking at what had just happened.

I scrambled to grab my bags and proceed to my terminal trying to hide the look of pure embarrassment on my face right now. I made it to the terminal with more than enough time to spare and gave the lady my ticket and passport and boarded the plan. I came into view with a good portion of my classmates and gave a hint of a smile as a greeting to the faces that remembered for some of my classes as I searched for my seat.

I was lucky enough to be given the seat window, thank god. I put my carry on's on the top cubby and took out my iPod and settled myself in my seat. I was so ready to get going. I plugged in my headphones and started listening to my favorite band, Maroon 5, to help me relax. Just as I was starting to clam down a shadow loomed over me. I peek through one eye trying to catch a glimpse of my seat mate. I lost all my ability to even breath when I saw who was going to be sitting next to me for the next 10 hours.

It was Green Eyes, and he definitely didn't do much to him that same look of disgust from earlier when my face registered in his brain. In stead of taking the middle seat green eyes plopped down in the isle seat and shoved his headphones in his ears. I guess that was a sign that he didn't plan on communicating with me at all.

I turned to look at the window and closed my eyes when I felt the roar of the plane engine come to life signaling that we were getting ready to depart.
"This is going to be one long flight" I lightly breathed out, only for me to hear.
"You can say that again" Green eyes mumbled with his eyes shut.
