Lost in thought

No-one asks for  life changing events  to happen, but they happen anyway. They creep up on you and leave you with no choices.  10 minutes ago I was typing at my desk, looking forward to my wedding in 2 days. 8 minutes ago I was texting my best friend asking if she has bought me any blue nail varnish when she went shopping.
7 minutes ago I heard the humming of a plane coming over New York. Nothing un - usual, maybe a little louder but never mind. I was busy, work needed to be done. Before the wedding.  I wish I could go on honeymoon sooner, away from stressful work for a few days. 

My wedding, I had the rest of my life with my  soon to be husband. Days in the sun lie ahead of us. My fiancé was so easy to fall in love with. First day of college I walked into my business class, dropped all my stuff, being the clumsy human I am. I swear every pen that feel to the ground felt like a mini earthquake. My cheeks had flushed a crimson red- then there besides me was a guy helpfully picking the stuff up. His eyes were greener then grass, his hair more golden than the sun. He looked at me with a sideways smile and the kindest eyes. And I knew right then I was in deep trouble. And my cheeks went even more red.  Little did I know he was looking at my mud brown eyes and messy bun and thinking the exact same thing. Soon he was my best friend, we laughed together and cried together. We could talk until dawn and still need more time. He had told me more than once that our hearts beat together as one.  When he proposed my heart burst with a million cries of Yes! I could never explain the warm feeling that bubbled inside of me as he put the ring on my finger.

Lost in my thoughts and dreams I didn't​ hear the increasing plane noise. The panicked chatter by the windows.

6 minutes ago I blacked out as a load of  metal and materials poured down on to me, now I am screaming; I am trapped. All my co-workers are d-dead.  I can see Sandy, with her newly died hair 10 yards from me. James lies away from me, for the first time in history his suite is dirty. Pain shoots up and down my legs. Everything is hot and dangerous. Any subdued or tranquil thoughts have long gone. What is happening!?

'HELP!!!'
