Ming sighed as he took his seat on the plane. He was going to miss his friends and more so Kit. Though he wasn't sure how Kit would feel or act he knew he would still miss him. Kit was his first boyfriend. The first guy he ever showed any interest in. Ming looked out the window that he sat next to. He didn't want to talk to anyone on the plane, he just wanted to get to Shanghai and that was it.

He put his headphones wail he waited for the rest of the passengers to bored. He jumped when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned and saw a guy setting next to him. He was young and tall. Also cute. Ming slowly took his headphones off.

''Yeah?'' he said to the guy.

''Hi, I'm Bo.'' The guy next to him said with a warm smile and stuck out his hand.

''Ming'' he said shaking Bo's hand.

''You visiting Shanghai or going to stay there?'' Bo said as he settled in for the flight.

''I'm going to stay with my aunt and uncle'' Ming said as he went to put his headphones back on.

''I'm going to study there myself'' he said. ''I'm excited about it. Hey, maybe we can hang out If you aren't busy that is. It would be nice to at lest just know someone there.''

Ming didn't say thing at all. This guy was a bit weird. They just meet and yet now he wants to hand out and everything. Ming shook his head and turned back to the window. Finally, the plane started to take off. For the next eight hours he was stuck having to listen to Bo talk about how excited he was and everything. In a weird way Ming started like this funny acting person.

Ming couldn't help but start to talk with Bo and get to know him. They spent the whole fight talking about everything they could. Ming even told him about the real reason he was going to Shanghai.

''Dude, that's crazy'' Bo said. ''So why did he agree to date you to start with if he wasn't sure how he felt and everything?''

Ming shrugged ''I don't even know myself. After Christmas he just started to pull away and that was it.''

Bo looked at Ming with a sad expression ''I hope you can move on or whatever you are doing here.''

''Thanks man'' Ming smiled. Other then Forth and Yo this was really the first time he had ever talked about this with anyone. Ming gave a side glance to Bo who was now talking to the flight attendant. Maybe having a friend in Shanghai wouldn't be so bad after all. He had wanted to go to just hide and try to forget everything, but now maybe going our and having fun would be better.

''Hey, Bo'' Ming called out to him.

Bo turned and looked at him ''Sup? Want something drink too?''

''Yeah, just water though.'' He smiled ''But about when we get to Shanghai, maybe when you aren't busy with classes we can go out and grab drinks.''

Bo smiled and took the drinks ''Why not later when we get off the flight?'' He hands Ming his water.

''My aunt is picking me up at the airport.'' Ming took the water and opened it.

Bo grabbed some paper from his bag and a pen ''Here give me your Line and I'll message you later after I get settled in the dorm.''

Ming agreed and wrote his Line down on the paper. The rest of the flight they slept till the plane finally touched down in Shanghai. After gathering their bags they walked to the front of the airport. Ming's aunt was waiting for him. The moment she saw him she ran over and hugged him.
