I walk into the airport, looking around almost lost. Only a suitcase I’m dragging behind me and a duffle bag holding my stuff. I’m still in my dress and heels from earlier and still a little drunk, probably not in my right mind, but I won’t be regretting this anytime soon. Maybe in a few years I’ll look back on this and ask myself why the hell I did it, but I’m not thinking about then, I’m thinking about now.
I walk up to the counter that says they have flights to London and approach the lady behind the counter.
“Hello, do you have your ticket ready?” she asks and I shake my head
“I need to buy one, how much are they?” I ask and she smiles telling me the price. I hand over the almost absurd amount of money. Maybe it’d seem more absurd if I hadn’t been saving this money for a while and had enough to sustain me for a couple months, hopefully.
“Thank you,” I reply picking up my carry on and walking to the terminal I was supposed to go to. My flight left at 4:30 AM and it’s currently 3:40. Mom wakes up at about 5, Dad at 5:30 and then Leah at 6 to get ready for school. I want to quit calling them mom and dad, but they’ve always been my mom and dad, but at the same time it doesn’t seem right anymore. I never felt like a daughter to them, and I never felt like they were my parents.

“Flight 128 to London boarding now,” the announcer says over the intercom. I take a deep breath and stand from my uncomfortable airport chair. I’ve only flown twice, and both when I was littler. I’ve never flown alone; I’ve always had my sister and mom. I remember the last time I flew, 6 years ago, we were 9 I believe and it was when we were flying out to see my uncles Harry, Louis, Liam, Zayn and Niall. Also known as One Direction back in the day
Niall has always been my favorite uncle and I don’t know why. My mom said that when she first met them Niall held me and I immediately stopped crying. I’ve always gone to him before anything else and he feels more like an older brother. A few months ago, my boyfriend broke up with me and I didn’t even tell Destiny, I called Niall and his son answered, I never really talked to any of their kids, never had a reason to.
I hand my ticket over and the lady doesn’t even question my age or anything, she lets me right on by and I walk through the tube thing that leads me to the airplane. I pull out my phone, checking the time once again. 4:20. In 40 minutes my mom will be calling me, asking me where the hell I am and I won’t answer. I’ll block their numbers and forget about them, I won’t talk about them or to them I can’t do that. That will only make me want to go back. Although I don’t regret this, leaving, I will miss them. I honestly will. I don’t know how it’ll be living on my own, but I guess I’ll find out when we get to London, and that scares me.
I walk through the small aisle of the plane; 15A is the seat I’m looking for. 13A, 13B, 14A, 14B, 15A! My seat buddy, if I have one, isn’t here yet. I slide past the empty seat and into the window seat shoving my bag under the seat in front of me and pulling out my headphones sticking them in my ears. The soothing music calms me to no end and I lean my head against the window and slowly fall asleep.

“This is your pilot speaking; we will be landing in about 15 minutes into London. It’s 2:30AM here in London and about 46 degrees. Please put our trays in the upright position and shut off all electronics as we prepare for landing, thank you for flying with us and enjoy your time in the beautiful London,” the ding-dong sound is played and I pull my headphones out of my ear pausing my music. My seat buddy never showed up so I slept sitting across both seats.
After we landed, which gave me massive ear popping, I leave the plane and walk towards where I’m supposed to pick up my suitcase. I turn on my phone and immediately see 20 voicemails total, from my mom, dad and Leah mainly, one from Destiny and one from Uncle Niall? I decide to listen to the first one that’s from my mom.
“Kathryn where are you? You need to get back here you are grounded you aren’t supposed to be out of the house get back here!” She says hanging up angrily. I move on to the rest, slowly getting closer to Uncle Niall’s, the one I’m most excited for. I finally pass getting yelled at from mom, dad and Leah and then I get to Destiny
“Hey, babe, pretty sure you’re on the plane now, but whatever anyway just thought I’d tell you I’ll miss you and I can’t wait to see you again love you,” I smile at her message. I think I’ll miss Destiny out of all of them; I smile to myself and tap the voicemail I’ve been waiting for.
“Listen Kat, I think I know where you are, but-erg-c’mon kid really? Just left? Ah whatever if you ever need help just give me a ring aight? Love ya, kid,” I smile at his message and his nickname for me. I don’t even know how I got it, just something he came up with for me. I see my plain black suitcase coming my way and I grab it off the roller and then grab my duffle bag and walk off with my stuff.
It’s 2 in the morning, freezing cold, in London and I’m on my own
