Riley
I get to the airport and sit in the driver seat. I start to shuffel things around to find my phone. I move all the things in my cup holder until I see my black Iphone 6. I roam through my contacts until I see Eliot's name.
"Come on Eliot. Pick up"
"Hello?"
"Eliot. It's me"
"Riley. You sound like you been crying"
"Cause I have. Eliot I need to get out of here and fast"
"Riley calm down. What happened?"
"Eliot can i just go live with you."
"Yea. Um we moved to California actually um I'll pick you up at Lax "
"See you in a few hours then"
I hang up. I drive to my house and grab everything that I need. My passport, my clothing, eletronics, and call someone to take my car to California.

"Already"
"Yea I still have to visit my dad and then I have to catch my flight."
"Alright."

When I'm back at the airport I bought my ticket and go through security and head to my seat in the plane. I sit down and see this guy around my age. I look down and start taping my feet. Never thought my first time flying would be when I'm kind of running away.
"First time flying"
I snap out of my thoughts and turn my h w ad into the direction of the voice. It was the guy sitting next to me.
"Oh uh yea"
"It's not that bad actually. "
I look at him with confusion.
"Oh sorry. Let me introduce myself. Isaiah "
"Riley. Well you seem to know a lot about riding planes. "
"Yea well when you travel a lot you get used to flying "
"And why you travel a lot if you don't mind that I ask"
"Well you see my friend was down and I came to visit him and my father is stationed here and I came to visit him also "
"You're father is in the ..."
"Army"
"Army. I was going to guess the Navy. Either way our country is lucky to have him. "
"Yea"
We kept talking on the plane until we landed.
"Well Riley I guess this is goodbye. "
"I guess so. "
I go get my luggage and walk towards the exit. I see my big brother wave his arm standing out in the crowd. I drop all my luggage on the floor and run into his arms.
"Thank you so much for letting me live with you" I muffle into his chest.
"Anytime. So what happened?"
