{Los Angeles, 2nd of May, 6:00}

Claire opened her eyes upon hearing the unpleasant iPhone alarm.

She sighed as she turned it off and got out of bed. Claire brushed her hair and teeth and got dressed in comfy clothes as she had to go to the airport.

Claire was going to California for the summer. She was very excited as all her friends were also going. Her "friend" Mira was going on the same flight with Claire. Claire thought they had agreed that she was ganna take the window seat so she was extra happy.

She got her luggage and went out the door to walk to five minutes to the airport. As she was walking she couldn't help but smile as this was her dream trip. Who wouldn't love California?

She got to the airport and sat on the waiting seats. In the seat diagonal to her saw the cutest guy she'd ever seen. He had light freckles, fluffy brown hair and a cute slightly downturned nose that made his face 10 times cuter.

The airline dinged and said "Flight 209 is boarding. Please go on and take your seats." Claire saw the cute guy stand up and she did too. She got a little more excited as she realised he was also going to California.

Claire saw Mira stand up and went to her. They walked and talked until they got their seats they picked out. "Mira... you're supposed to be next to me. We agreed I'm on window seat."

"Claire, you know I also wanted a window seat. And we never agreed you have window seat! So I just picked the window seat in front of you!" Argued Mira.

When they took their seat Claire noticed the Airport boy come in. She took her thoughts away from him. What if some child sat next to her and wanted to play on her phone? That would be horrid.

All thoughts of irritating kids flew away when the airport boy sat next to her. Claire felt her checks heat up so she looked out the window. She was annoyed at her luck. "Yay this is great and all but why did he book this seat" she thought to herself.

"Hi there." He awkwardly spoke. "Uh hi I guess." Said Claire. "I- uh I'm Austin" "I'm Claire." Claire felt her face flush pink so she turned to the window. "Cool. Wanna be friends?" Austin asked in a lively tone.

"Sure, why not?" Returned Claire whilst looking at the window to hide her tomato red face. As the plane was taking off they started talking.

They were talking about lots of things like their pets, favourite colours and hobbies. Basic things pretty much. It looked like Mira was also having fun with the girl in the seat in front of Austin. Mira was pretty much an ignorant little... I'd rather not say.

As immature as Mira was, she was going to be one of Claire's roommates in the massive house-hotel they were staying In for the summer. It was a lot like a beach house but had lots of rooms like a hotel.

Suddenly the speakers said it's time to leave so Claire had to say bye to Austin. She felt a bit sad as she found a nice guy.

{A/N} Thank you so much for reading the first chapter. I'm trying to make this an enjoyable book so let's hope it is. Sorry for this being a short one, I'm trying to make this book on vacation and I'm at the beach most the time so it's difficult.
