I wake up, and I'm all sweaty. I look at the person next to me, a complete stranger, and say, "Are we alive?"
The girl just laughs and says, "That must have been a pretty wicked dream. You were shaking. Yes, we're alive. We are going to land in 14 hours. Just stay calm please.."
"I'm sorry." I put in my ear buds again and listen to some All Time Low and fall asleep again. This dream is better this time.

"WE WILL BEGIN OUR DECENT IN 1 HOUR SO WE WILL BE COMING BY TO PICK UP ANY TRASH YOU MAY HAVE AND THE TELEVISION SCREENS." I pass my trash over the person in the middle of my row to the girls boyfriend by the aisle. It feels like 5 minutes goes by and we land in New York. I am not ready.
••••••••
"BAGGAGE CLAIM TO YOUR LEFT!!" Reads a sign to my right. I grab my carry on bag and walk inside the busy airport. I ask my parents for food because I am beyond starving. They hand me $20 and I go to Nando's. Never thought they'd have that here.
When I get my food I scarf it down and call my parents to see where they are. They are at a Pizza Hut. Strange name for pizza. I walk over to a directory board and find where I need to go. I slowly walk there; stopping at the bathroom and a thrift store.
When I see the Pizza Hut I walk to find my parents. They ask if I'm ready and I say no. We leave anyway. My parents find a rental car, and we put our bags in the trunk and drive to our 3 room apartment. It is tiny and I am so not excited to live here.
1: NEW YORK IS HUGE. HOW WILL I FIND ANYTHING.
2: WAY TOO MANY BUILDINGS.
3: MY NEW APARTMENT IS SMALL.
4: Calum, Michael, and Ashton are not here.
I ignore my thoughts and ask what room will be mine. My parents tell me to follow them and they walk out of the apartment. I ask where we're going and they walk down the hall and open a door.
"Here."
"Your giving me my own apartment?"
"Yes, Luke. The apartment is too small for 4 people. And we figured you'd rather have this."
"Thank you, guys. This is amazing." My dad comes in with my bag after he leaves for a few seconds and puts it on the counter. My parents leave and I'm alone in my new apartment.
•••••••••
*buzz*
I look at my phone and see my mom texted.
"You have your first day in two days!!" I decide to ignore it but another comes through. "Maybe you'll make new friend and possibly a girl."
