"Dammit" I whispered to myself as I looked down the plane aisles. I scanned all the seats. Each one was taken except one that was seated close to the back. I cursed at myself again as I walked down the aisle. I prayed no one had that empty seat. As I moved closer I started to notice the gentleman that sat next to the empty seat. He looked very handsome with dark long curly hair that fell to his face. He was reading something and I didn't want to disturb him. I contemplated just sitting somewhere else but there were no seats left. I stopped myself in front of him and brought up the courage to speak.

"Excuse me, sir?" I asked quietly but loud enough for the gentleman to hear. The moment he looked up at me, my heart got caught in my throat. His brown eyes were deep, but with the lighting, they looked bright and vibrant. He had nice full lips and a soft,  gentle face to match his eyes. I almost forgot what I wanted to say to him.

"Umm, uh...sorry...is-is anyone sitting next to you? I didn't have a seat and was wondering if I can sit next to you" I felt like running away after stumbling on my words, but the handsome stranger gave me a small smile. My heart almost completely melted.

"No one sitting next to me, you can sit here" he moved his duffel bag out the way for me to have a seat. I took my own messenger bag and placed it in the compartment over us and sat down with my tote bag in hand.

I said thank you to the cute stranger and took my seat. I sat and listened to the flight attendant give out the usual instructions for the plane and I buckled my seat belt. From the corner of my eye, I watched as the man sitting next to me did the same and looked at the flight attendant intently.

I fully looked over at him and gave him a small smile which he looked at me and returned right the gesture. The plane did its usual take off, which made me feel nervous.

"Scared of flying?" The cute stranger asked me. His English accent took me out of my concentration and I kept my full attention on him.

"Yes, I don't like flying," I said looking down at my shaking hands.

"Are you scared of flying?" I asked him back.

"Yea, I'm petrified of flying, I wasn't like this when I was younger," he said. I noticed how light his voice was and deep his accent was.

"My name is David" he introduced himself to me. He extended his hand for me to shake.

"I'm Catherine, it's nice to meet you," I said giving him a warm smile. Once the plane reached its altitude, the seat belt signal turned off and we both unbuckled our belts.

"So, you're heading to LA?" David asked me as I pulled my long and puffy hair back into a messy ponytail.

"Yes, I'm heading there for a modeling audition...and you?" I asked looking at him. He gave me a small grin.

"I'm going for a movie role, and practicing with a voice acting coach" this made me curious about him.

"Really? You're an actor?" I asked wanting to know more. He gave me a nervous laugh.

"Yea, I've done theater work in London, I just finished doing a pilot TV show, now I'm heading to LA for this movie role I've been cast in" he excitedly went through his duffel bag and took out a script book and handed it to me. I looked at it and it read "Vampire Heart" my eyes widen at the title.

"Oh wow! I loved the book series. Which character are you playing?" I asked excitedly.

"I will be playing a character called Vincent...I have to work on my physic though..." he said with a small chuckle. I giggled with him.

"That's why I need to head out to LA" he explained with a smile.

"So, you're from London huh?" I asked turning my body to face him.
