Beside You (A Luke Hemmings fan fiction)

Chapter 5

"Amelia. Amelia, wake up!" I nudged Amelia. She grunted and rolled over.

"How the fuck does Jason know I'm moving?" I sharply whispered. "What do you mean?" She muttered.

"He just texted me saying that he knows in moving" I whispered. "How the fuck am I supposed to know" she grunted.

"You're the only person I've told" I snapped back.

"Well I've been with you all week and I don't text him, now let me sleep" she rolled over and ended the conversation. I sat up all night, paranoid. I felt like I was being watched.

The clock read 5:03am and I was still awake.

Maybe moving would be good. I would get away from the past and start fresh. Meet new people and move on from Jason.

I got about two hours of sleep when I was woken up. "Come on Jess, the truck is here". The truck that was delivering our stuff to the airport was here.

My dad managed to get a delivery way for a stuff, I'm not sure how but I just went with the flow. I met all of my friends in the park one last time. Everyone was crying. I can't believe I'm leaving all of them behind.

Soon after our final get together, my parents collected me. We had our final group hug and I got into the car. I tried holding in my tears, but it was way too hard. I got a message from Amelia.

Amelia:"Text me before you take off and when you land. Miss you loads already :( x"

It broke my heart leaving her behind.

My mum handed me back my passport and my ticket.

I examined the ticket and thought to myself "I've got a ticket to another world".

I tried thinking positively about this whole situation as there was no point on dwelling on something I couldn't change. I put my earphones in and fell asleep.

I roamed around the airport for a while. Our flight wasn't until another 4 hours.

I shopped in a few stores and ate some food. It was hard to take in that in less than 24 hours I'll be in a new place, a new world. I knew nobody there, that scared me the most. I don't have any siblings or family in Sydney.

What happens if I don't make friends? What happens if I meet someone like Jason? Many questions ran around my head.

My thoughts were cut short when a woman spoke over the intercom. "Flight 765 London to Sydney direct is now boarding". This was it.

I texted Amelia telling her I was now boarding. Just before I turned my phone off, I got another message. I expected it to be Amelia but I was wrong. It was Jason.

Jay: "have a safe flight babe ;)"

"What a fucking creep" I muttered to myself. My mum looked at me and I just shook my head.

How does he know? I questioned myself again. When we were seated, I put my earphones in and looked out the window. "This is it" I whispered to myself.

It was about 11 hours into our flight when I was awoken by shaking.

I thought we were landing. I was in mid-stretch when the plane went dark. People began to panic.

"May I have your attention please, we are experiencing some technical difficulties. I ask for all of you to remain ca-" the pilot was cut off by the plane dropping.

People panicked even more. I didn't panic. "Maybe those people back in England will be happy now" I told myself.
