Dear you,
It's not easy being me. Mom and dad are sending me to a boarding school. It's called Kadic Academy. They're telling me it'll rock. But now I have to leave my friends and family. And that's not cool. I don't even know why they're sending me there. They just said, "Kiva, you're going to go to boarding school. Now I know you're upset, but blah blah blah..."
At least I'll meet new people.
I hope.
Stay strong, Kiva
Kiva closed her diary with a large sigh. She had written that back home, and now she was reading it on the airplane to pass time. She had the window seat, which was okay except when she had to get up. The person next to her was quiet, and nervous looking. He was listening to his i-pod with a distracted look on his face. Kiva was so bored, she decided to get his attention and have a conversation. "Excuse me." she said, nudging his shoulder. "Scuse me..." She said, louder. "HEY DUDE! Wake up!" she screamed in his ear. He jumped a little, and his eyes darted around expectantly. Kiva gave a little wave. He took out the earbuds in his ears.
"What?" Kiva flinched. This guy must have major jetlag to be so crabby sounding.
"Hi. I'm Kiva."
"And I'm Odd."
"Oh. Okay. Hi there." He was more to the point then she thought.
Odd's POV
Goodbye America. It was nice knowing you. Actually, not really, because I had to stay with Aunt Halie. Why couldn't I just go home for the vacation? "HEY DUDE! Wake up!"
I looked around quickly. A girl about my age gave a tiny wave. "What?" That did sound a little jetlagged. Oh well. I'll never see her again anyway.
"Hi, I'm Kiva." She smiled reluctantly. Her light brown hair was slightly messed up because she had taken a nap earlier. Which must have been hard, with her head against the window. Not that I noticed or anything.
"And I'm Odd."
"Oh. Okay. Hi there." For the first time I noticed her lovely eyes. Slightly green, lots of brown. A nice mixture. "Tired?" she asked, looking at my half-closed eyes. I nodded slightly.
"Uhhuh."
"It's hard to sleep here, isn't it?"
"Uhhuh." I could feel my eyes shut slowly. I felt her tilt me slightly, and put my head on her lap. She's so kind. I wonder why. But it doesn't really matter, because-
Kiva's POV
I watched him drift off to sleep. I figured if he was so cranky tired, maybe he would be more pleasant when he woke up. I played with my own i-pod while the plane kept flying, and flying, and flying...
Authors note: Not too horrible for a begining, eh? Well, do review. This is my first story. Remember your first story? It was hard, wasn't it? Want to talk about it?
