Prologue: New Life

            "Oh honey, your father and I are so proud of you!" My mom said as she kissed my cheek.

"I am taking a year off of college mom aren't you scared about that? I thought you wouldn't approve actually."

My mom just looked at me and smiled. I know she's still upset about it when I told her but hey, it was my decision not hers.

"Even though I don't approve, you are a legal adult, you can do whatever you please. But forget that honey!  Let's get you to the airport." As she grabs my bags and lightly touches my shoulder.

I follow after her with more of my bags.  I kind of wish my dad was here to at least see me go. He's in the army and I worry about him all the time.
               ***

            We arrived at the airport and I started having butterflies in my stomach. Leaving New York is the most scariest thing I've done. Yeah I sound like an idiot but man, New York is basically my life.

"Alright sugar plum give me a big hug and call me as soon as you get off that plane you hear me." I hug her for one last time and tell her I would call her.

"I love you mom always." I continue to walk into the airport. Like my clumsy self I bump into this guy.

"Oh my goodness. I'm so sorry I was looking for my ticket and I just didn't see where I was going." He was really cute. 

"It's okay, don't worry." We continued walking together.

"Where are you going?" He asked

"Miami"

"Oh, shit me too" he seemed surprised.

"So I'm guessing we have the same plane flight?" I laughed a little.

"Yeah I guess so." He laughed also.

    I smiled and we kept on walking to the seating area. His laugh is so nice. He's laid back. His style is marvelous. I couldn't stop looking at him. 

"You good? as he chuckled a little, you're staring at me weirdly." I snapped out of it.

"Huh...What-" 

"I'm just kidding you good, your name is?" I still couldn't stop looking at him, I completely zoned out again why does he have to be so cute. Earth to Amelia I said in my head and I finally told him my name.

"It's Amelia. Amelia Thompson and you?" Why do I sound like I don't know how to speak ugh.

"Let's keep that a secret Amelia" i looked at him and wondered. But it was cool that he kept me guessing.

We were soon on our way to Florida. The flight attendants showed us the procedures of what would happen if they plane was to go down. I always got scared about that.

 "The flight time is 2 hours and 37 minutes. Sit back and enjoy the flight." Said the flight attendant. 

When I'm on planes I fall asleep quickly. I ended up falling asleep on his shoulder, he is a good pillow. I'm sure he didn't mind.
