As I packed the last of my things for my new life I thought about all the adventures I'd have when in London. "You almost ready Cat?" my friend Violet called from the other room, "We're gonna be late for our train!" Violet and I were moving to London together for the summer. I stopped daydreaming and stuffed the rest of my closet into my suitcase. Half an hour later we were on our train to the airport. "This is gonna be so great! Can you imagine all the locals? Ah those accents!" Violet carried on. "I know! It's what we've always talked about!"
When we arrived at the airport we were informed that our flight had been delayed. Crap! Violet and I exchanged looks of disappointment. That means we had to wait an extra hour just to get on the plane, not to mention the wait time for it to take off. Violet decided to sit and play games on her phone, typical Vi. Half an hour went by and our flight still had not arrived. Ugh! Finally I decided to get out my tablet and sketch out some new costume designs for my next cosplay. This one was for Aelita from Code Lyoko. I bet no one remembers that show but at least I'll look cute at this years Katsucon.
"Flight 149 to London has now arrived" FINALLY. Violet and I got up and got in line to board the plane. Excitement building up in our spirits. On the plane we decided to converse about what we would do first in the land of tea and police boxes. "Boy stalking at the mall!" suggested Violet. We hadn't been boy stalking since we were 14! But I agreed anyway. New place, new chance to meet some nice English boys. A few hours past before we heard the flight attendant announce we would arrive in London in 15 minutes. Both Vi and I pressed our faces to the glass window of the plane, hoping to get our first glimpse of our new home for the summer. Nothing, we were too high up at the moment.
When we finally touched down in London we caught a bus to take us to our new apartment, after grabbing a map of the city of course. On the bus we couldn't stop gushing over all the sites we were already seeing. Finally it was our stop and we got off. "Flat number 124" I read as we took the lift up to our new place. On the way up two boys got in the lift, might I say some very attractive boys. They were arguing about some movie I've never heard of. "No I'm right, he definitely died in the end" said one of the boys. "No he didn't, they didn't show it so it didn't happen" replied the other boy. Vi and I both exchanged looks of excitement, our first time being anywhere near attractive English boys!
