I walk back to where mum and dad are and wait in the line to board the plane
The three of us make our way outside onto the plane.
My parents take their assigned seats next to each other as I take mine, a window seat across from their seats.
The first half of the flight is pretty slow as I don't have anyone to talk to.
A girl my age walks down the middle aisle, stopping when she sees that the seat next to me is empty. "Is this seat taken?" She asks.
"No." I say, with a friendly smile.
"Sorry, it's just my idiot brother-"
"I understand." I say, cutting her off. I remember my brother, a sad smile rising to my face.
"You have a brother too? They're so annoying."
"Had." I correct her. "You learn to appreciate them."
"Oh. I'm sorry." Her smile is wiped completely from her face.
"Thats the whole reason why we're moving."
"Your moving? So am I." She says, almost completely forgetting about our last conversation.
"I'm Jessica," I introduce myself. "But you can call me Jess." I smile.
"Gemma, nice to meet you, Jess."
"Pleasure to meet you."
We continue to talk the for the rest of the trip. I tell her about the idiot who hit me with the door and didn't apologise.
"Really? What a dickhead," she says. "Tell me what he looks like so I can kick him right in the baby maker."
"Curly brown hair, green eyes, husky voice-"
Gemma lets out a long laugh, tilting her head back in amusement. "Trust me, I'll make him pay."
"Okay," I say, confused. "So you know this guy?"
"Yeah you could say that" she says with an amused smile.
"So why are you moving" I ask trying to change the subject.
"My dad has just been promoted, and head office for the company is in Australia" she explains
" thats great who does your dad work for?" i ask letting out my curiosity.
"He works for cgu insurance" she says starting to look a little tired.
"Do you think we should get some sleep we still have a little while until we land" I suggest
"Yeah I think thats a good idea" she says happily
We both get comfortable In our seats, and put my headphones on As she does the same. I look out the window and start to fall asleep to the beautiful view that is in front of me.
Maybe moving won't be so bad after all.
