Slicing through the Clouds
A story about a boy who was always afraid of flying, a girl who never wanted to touch the ground, and how they somehow found each other in the midst of their most vulnerable moments.

Mikan eagerly walked into through the airport, watching different fleeting faces walk by. To Mikan, the airport was one of the places where you could see bits and pieces of culture from around the world. From how a person dressed, smiled, and talked… it was something she loved to seek and learn. With her suitcase wheels rolling about, she strolled towards her waiting area. In just two hours, she would be up in the air again… that's what Mikan lived for.
Natsume grunted as he finally sat down on one of the grey leather seats in the waiting area, the chair was cold, just like his expression. He simply just hated airports and he hated airplanes. It was something Natsume could never get used to, which was why he preferred his feet on the ground and his head out of the clouds. Crying babies, turbulence, throbbing ears… he loathed it all, and yet here he is in this bland airport. In two hours, Natsume could only hope that this flight would be better than all his past experiences.
"All passengers for flight A13 going from Tokyo, Japan to New York please start boarding. May I repeat, all passengers for flight A13 please start boarding."
This was it, in 30 minutes or so his feet would be off the ground. Natsume never really admitted it out loud, but he was afraid of flying. Afraid of all that could happen up in the sky, it made him uncomfortable and nonetheless scared.
Mikan almost fell from jumping out of her seat too fast, however she smiled ecstatically. In a few minutes she'd finally get away from all the past Tokyo, Japan held. In moments like these, Mikan finally felt as if her world was now free and anew.
Hey guys! This was an introductory chapter so it wasn't much, but I promise the next chapter will be a bit longer! This is my first time uploading a story onto the internet so I'm a bit of a newbie. I know I'm not the best writer out there, but I always strive to become better! As much as I love encouraging and lovely comments, I wouldn't mind helpful criticism to help me along the way! So keep those eyes busy by reading, and keep those fingers busy by typing!
Anyways, have a lovely day. :)
