Skyla's P.O.V

"Flight 763 from Atlanta Georgia to Sydney Australia, now arriving."

This is it, today is the day I meet my bestest friend. I've imagined this day for so long now it doesn't even feel real. I pinch myself to make sure that this isn't a dream. I wait near the exit with my sign with Britney's name. I check the time, 1:34pm, anytime now, I lock my phone and place it in my back pocket. I look up and I see her, my best friend, I've skyped her, messaged her, communicated with her anyway possible while living on the other of the world. But this, this was different.
Before I realized what I was doing I threw my sign to the ground and running to her. I jumped and surprisingly she caught me. I let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding. Britney places me to the ground, I wipe the tears from my eyes and look and see her, it still feels so surreal. Britney wipes the tears from her eyes and I couldn't do anything but hug her. I hug her for what seems eternity. I could never have asked for anything better, ever.
We gather ourselves and belongings and head to the taxi.
