Hi! So I'm super excited about this! I've never written a fanfic or story before, so this is all super new. Sorry if it sucks but feel free to give me any ideas or pointers!!

*beep beep beep*
Your eyes slowly open to the sound of your alarm, the sun is painfully bright this morning. Today was the day you were flying out to LA to find the apartment you would be living in for the next four years. You had just recently been accepted into UCLA and couldn't wait to have a fresh start in California. "Y/N are you awake?" you hear your mom shout from downstairs. "I'm up mom! I'll be down in a few!" You roll out of bed and stumble to the bathroom still half asleep. You turn the shower on and stand there for a while letting the water hit you letting your mind wander and think about all of the crazy changes about to take place. You finally snap out of it and shampoo your hair, wash your body, and hop out of the shower. You throw on the outfit you laid out the night before, did some light makeup, and went downstairs for breakfast. "Good morning college girl!" your mom said excitedly.
"Are you ready for the apartment hunting to begin?"

"Yeah I'm stoked! I can't believe this is actually happening and I'm moving all the way across the country." you say with a hint of fear in your voice.

Your mom picks up on this and give you a reassuring pat on the back as she sets your breakfast down in front of you. You both eat and talk about your big college plans and head out the door to the airport.

Y/N's POV
This is so crazy. I can't believe today is the day I find my new home and in one week I'll be living 2,000 miles from home, from my family. We get on the plane and I can't lie... I'm terrified. I've never flown before. Mom finds her seat up front and I make my way to the back of the plane to find my seat. I find my number and throw my carry-on in the bin above me. I take a seat by the window thinking about all of the things that could possibly go wrong on this flight. My thoughts are completely interrupted when someone plops down beside me. I look over and see a guy around my age with the most defined facial features and most beautiful blonde hair I've ever seen.

"Oh hey sorry, didn't mean to startle you, I'm Duke." He chuckles.

"Oh hey I'm Y/N" I smile back.

"So you're headed to LA. Very cool. What's out there for you?"

"Oh I just got accepted into UCLA, so my mom and I decided to go and look at apartments before I start school in a couple of months."

"That's sick! I'm moving out to LA too, in fact I'm going to sign my lease today, I hope you find the perfect place".

Talking to him takes my mind off the fact that I am terrified of heights and the fact that we're 30,000 feet in the air. We start talking about future plans and hometowns, but I'm finding it harder and harder to focus on the words he's saying as I'm looking at his perfect face and lips. "Snap out of it Y/N... you literally don't even know this guy" you think to yourself.

Duke's POV
I can't believe I got lucky enough to sit by someone like her. I know I should be focusing on what she's saying to me, but I can't. I can only think about how perfect she looks with her baby curls framing her face and her smile, my god, her smile is so bright. "Snap out of it Duke... you just met this girl she's not into you." Is all you can hear in your head.
