(this is my first story sorry if there are some cringy or messed up parts lol)

sorry if this is a really long first chapter let me know if i should make shorter ones or keep them the same 


Mum I promise ill text you when I land!" I have told this to my mum for the hundredth time this minute

"ok, just have fun and I don't want you to leave your grandmother's site," my mum hugged me so tight I couldn't breath.

I walked over to the gate where my grandma was standing

"Does she realise its only three days? she will survive three days without you," I giggled as my grandma walked into our gate.

I sat down at the gate chairs and plugged in my earphones. It was the first time I was traveling alone with my grandma even though it was only to Sydney. I was really excited to go and relax by the beach whilst my grandma was catching up with her friends, but, of course, I was not going to tell my mum that she would freak out. I am 17 now I don't know why she is still so protective over me i am capable of walking down to the beach and walking back, or going to a cafe for breakfast one morning by myself. I guess she is just worried about other people in our world

"boarding gate 307 flight from Melbourne to Sydney now"

I turned down the volume of my music during the announcement, grabbed my bag and walked to my gate. I got onto the plane and my grandmother asked to sit on the aisle so I said I would  sat in the middle.

"looks like no one else is going to sit own the window so we could stretch out" my grandmother looks at me grinning and winking excessively 

"lets just wait to make sure, we don't want to be rude," I told my grandmother watching her roll her eyes, she as the type of person that would stretch out on the seat even if a celebrity was sitting there

"fine" My grandma pulled out her magazine and I could tell that she was praying that no one was going to sit next to us so Iwould let her stretch out and sleep 

I turned the volume back up on my earphones  and looked up to see a man walking closer to our row. I glanced over to my grandma who was eyeing him to make sure he was not sitting in our row. I kind of wished he was going to sit with us, he was cute. He got to our row and stopped. 

"um sorry i just need to get through to my seat," he said,my grtandmother reluctantly stood up and i jumped up to let him through. I couldn't take my eyes off him he was gorgeous.

I soon got knocked out of my stare my my grandmother

"of course he had to sit here out of every seat if the plane,"

"i know right" expect I wasn't saying it because I was angry he was sitting here, I was more then happy for him to sit next to me.

"Aye shawn are you sure you don't want to sit back here with Andrew and teddy I can move forward? " someone from the row behind was talking to the man next to me, shawn.

"yeah its all good don't worry bout it," shawn said turning back to face the row in front of us.

I tried not to turn to him and stare so I thought of the beach and then attempt tan I was going to get. The plane took off and my grandma fell asleep, It was only a 1hour and 30minute plane ride. I decided to change the song to a John Mayer one,i was in the mood to listen to his songs and  i loved his music. He just sounded like he was floating when he sang and I could tell he loved the music reproduced.

I put on 'slow dancing in a burning room', it was my favourite one.

"That's a good song," Shawn said looking over at my phone
