A Brief Encounter With the Cullens
What if Austin was in Forks Washington instead of Washington D.C?
"Where are you?"
"Seattle Washington"
"I'm in Forks Washington."
I said goodbye and hung up the phone. I have to go claim my baggage. I look over and see a girl, maybe about ten, crying with a mother and father comforting her. I walk over, hoping maybe I'll be able to help.
"First flight?" I ask.
"No, she's sad." The mom replies.
"Why? If you don't mind me asking."
"We're moving to Seattle." The dad says.
"Sweetie, look up." He whispers to the girl.
She does. The expression on her face seems excited. I can't wonder why anymore. It's obviously because, well, what girl wouldn't perk up after seeing Austin Moon in the same airport?
"You're Austin Moon!" She says excitedly.
"I heard you're moving to Seattle." She starts looking sad again.
"The good news is, I'm performing in Seattle tonight!" I say, getting out a backstage pass. "I'll give you a little backstage tour." She's happy. She seems to forget she's moving.
"You don't have to." The mom says.
"I do." I pull out a photo to autograph. "Who do I make this out to?" I ask casually.
"Renesmee C. C." She says.
"Pretty name." I say. I mean it this time.
"Thanks!" She says.
"I'll see you backstage in a few hours."
She can't stop smiling. I feel really happy. I hear the airport announcer say "Flight to Seattle leaves in 10 minutes." I smile and walk to the plane with Renesmee. We talk to each other, and I ignore the THOUSAND times she says "I can't believe I'm actually talking to Austin Moon!"
As I sit down, I look over at Renesmee and her family. I smile. I close my eyes and fall asleep with thoughts about Ally and good feelings inside.
