the small group of new friends had turned to one and talked one on one for a while.

"so why are you guys headed to atlanta?" finn asked, enjoying looking over amelia's face.

"well, lily and i had met online, but we also have another best friend from online. the one we're setting up with gaten. he lives in atlanta." amelia explained.

"i think that's so cool that you met online and are best friends." finn told her, amazed by the two.

amelia reached to her friend and squeezed her hand.

"the best," amelia agreed.

lily turned back to noah, after smiling at her friend.

"so," noah started, looking at the cheerful girl before him. "tell me about yourself."

lily scoffed.

"god you're cliche. what do you want to know?" she placed her chin on the palm of her hand, while her elbow was propped up, holding up her head, bringing it quite close to noah's.

"everything." he said, doing the same as she had previously done, and causing her to smile.

"i was born in canada, moved to new york a few years ago and lived there ever since. my parents are divorced and my
mom still lives back in canada. i have one stepsister, one step brother, and three blood sisters. i am an anxious little shit and very sarcastic." she told him barely grazing upon her life.

"wow." noah said, amazing by the small of her life.

he really was enjoying his mystery girl. everything about her amazed him. it was as if she could talk for hours about things that could bore someone to death, but he would be more entertained than if he were scrolling on his phone.

"so what about you?" she asked him, then quickly corrected. "other than all the actor shit."

noah let out a short laugh.

"i dunno." he sighed, thinking hard. "i'm a very soft and sensitive person. i have my twin sister, chloe. there's not much about me."

she rolled her eyes.

"noah, i know there is." lily told him. "maybe you don't. but i do."

he blushed at her words, while right beside them, finn was doing the same.

"no, really," finn admitted to amelia. "i'm not as good as everyone make me out to be."

"i've known you for less than an hour and i already don't hate you!" amelia complimented. "and that's pretty rare."

finn giggled at her compliment and glanced out the window.

out of the window, he spotted a certain something that caused him to jump up and press his face near it.

"look!" he shouted, pointing at the uncovered window. "there's land!"

with those words, each one of them jumped from their seats, including noah, who failed to realized there was still a seatbelt strapped against his legs.

everyone began to laugh. and they didn't stop, until noah's face had returned to its normal pale colour, rather than the red from embarrassment colour they'd seen moments before.

once they had calmed after the small accident, they peered out the window, huddled close together.

they examined the nearing island with great focus. as if they had to memorize it.
