Hey guys I'm sorry this chapter is REALLY short, but I needed the end of the scene to end in a new chapter. I hope you enjoy it anyway and chapter 4 will be coming out in a couple of days!

The plane lifted up higher and higher as it pressed me against my seat. After a couple minutes, we had passed through the white blanket of clouds, and were high up in the air. The highest I've ever been in my whole life. My stomach started to feel weird, and I wished I hadn't gone on the plane. I thought about mom and Noel, and about how much I was going to miss them. I tried to ignore the uncompfortable feeling in my stomach, and told myself that it was completely normal.
The person next to me was a definitely overweight man, probably around 60, who took up half my seat.
Great.
You know that loud, heavy "old-people-breath"? Well that guy had it, and it was exremely annoying. Especially when he coughed that "old-people-cough". But I felt bad, so I tried to ignore it, which was almost impossible, since his big hip kept reminding me he was right next to me.
After about and hour and a half, a flight attendant came and served breakfast. A breakfast burrito with a roll and butter, and cherry cheesecake. As people had told me before, it eally wasn't the best food in the world. I didn't eat a lot, because mornings aren't really my time to eat, especially when I had to wake up at 4 AM.
After I had about a third of my burrito, half of the roll, and two bites of cheesecake, I watched a movie, The Other Woman. It was so funny, I kept forgetting that I wasn't alone, so I laughed out loud several times, followed by the awkward stares of other passengers.
After The Other Woman I watched Heaven Is For Real (Spoiler alert: He doesn't die). After that I was actually able to sleep for one an a half hours, and when I woke up there were 15 minutes left till landing. I put my shoes back on, and gathered my things together in my backpack.

At the baggage reclaim it took about 30 minutes until I hd my 2 suit cases together. One lady accidentally took mine, and if I hadn't put two green stickers on the top o it, I would have never found it. Then I walked out the doors, where dad was supposed to meet me. Oh god it's going to be so awkward!
All of a sudden everything felt weird around me. I didn't know what made me feel this way, until I realized that I was alone. No one had walked through the doors from the baggage reclaim, and no one was waiting behind the doors. I panicked. When I turned around, the suit cases were still going in circles round after round, but no one was waiting for their own. Everyone was gone. I ran back to where we had come from, but all the halls and lines where empty. As if it was the end of the world, and I had been the only one to survive. I ran around like a crazy person, and thought to myself that everyone would make fun of me if they saw me, when I remembered that non one could see me. Hopeless I sunk to the floor and cried my eyes out, yelling for someone to come and help me out of here.
