I wake up by the sound of my alarm. I groan. It's 5 a.m.
My plane leaves at 9 a.m. but my train already leaves at 6 a.m. because it will take 2 hours to get to the airport and I have to be there in time.
I quickly dress and eat a sandwich for breakfast.
Then I hear the doorbell ring. I smile. Mark will bring me to the trainstation. I quickly take my stuff and open the door.
I grin when I see Marks broad smile. 'Good morning sis! Exited?'

'Morning! And yes, you have no idea.'
He grins. I grin too.

'I never thought you would be an actress' he admits grinning.

'Believe me, me neither' and we both laugh.

After Mark dropped me at the station I was completely alone. But I didn't mind, I was used to be alone. I plugged in my music and started the song 'Get up' by Epic Rock.
I listened to the music while I looked for an empty compartment.
I sat down and started to read, I decided to read The Hobbit again, because I loved it and because I felt like I had to.
The 2 hours passed quickly and soon I arrived at the airport. I thought about my horse, Zorro, others would bring him to the airport, and I hoped everything was alright, Zorro wasn't very easy to handle....
I walked to the gate at a quarter to 8. I walked through the 'tunnel' that leaded to the plane. I smiled, I liked flying. I look for my seat and look out of the window. Soon the plane is of the ground and I decide to watch a movie. I started with the last Harry Potter movie, because I hadn't watched that one yet. After that I watched War Horse.
With still 10 hours to go I decided it was best to get some sleep.
After watching the clouds for a while I dozed off.
I woke up and when I looked outside I saw Los Angeles. I smiled, it has been a long time since I have been in the US. It felt good to see it again.
After getting my suitcase I walked to the 'shopping centre' and walked to the starbucks, where I would meet Peter.
As soon as I entered the starbucks I saw Peter, I knew him from interviews I had seen on tv. I saw he was accompanied by a very tall man, and a girl, who I guessed to be like 16 years old. Peter saw me and waved. I walked towards them smiling.
'Hi, I am Jeanine Evans' I said smiling, as I shook Peters hand. I then looked at the tall man.
'Lee Pace' he said with a little smile 'nice to meet you'.
'Nice to meet you too' I said smiling, I felt very small compared to him. I wasn't really small, but smaller than average.
At last I turned to the girl.
'Amy Pace, I am Lee's adopted ' she said quite nervous.
'Nice to meet you, how are you?'
I asked her, hoping she wasn't nervous because of me.
'She is nervous because this will be her first flight' Lee said, putting a hand on her shoulder.
'I am sure I am going to hate it!' Amy exclaimed.
I chuckled, I liked her already.
'I was scared too when I was about to fly for the first time, but it really isn't that bad, I really like it now, actually'
I said with a smile.
She seemed to relax a little more.
'How much time do we have left until we have to go to the gate?' I asked Peter.
He looked at his watch. 'About 40 minutes'
'Great, then I still can have some hot chocolate, do you guys want something too?'
I walked away to order the drinks smiling, I liked those people.
I walked back with two coffee and two hot chocolates.
While we were drinking we discussed things about the cast, and I discovered I would be an elf, and Lee and Amy would also be elves. Suddenly a thought occured me.
'Peter, is there some kind of soccerfield or something near the set, because I still have to train, the team will be coming to New Zealand too, because the world tournament will be there, so I have to join them sometimes too. Is that possible? And our matches, can I go to them too?'

'Of course, I already took care of that.'

I sighed relieved. 'Thank you.'

'It's time to go' Lee suddenly said.
And I saw how Amy grasped his arm nervously. It reminded me of how I grasped my dad when I had my first flight.
I bit on my lip sadly. Those memories where still painful, even though it has been such a long time.

'Is everything alright?' Lee said, and I noticed he was looking at me worriedly.
'Yeah, I am fine' I faked a smile. But he didn't seem convinced. He didn't ask anything else though, and I was grateful for that.
