Regular POV
The plane gained altitude quickly; hitting turbulence that caused Patricia Williamson's to be knocked into the seat in front of her. Normally she didn't mind plane rides, but this one made her nervous because of her destination: America. She was spending a few weeks of her summer vacation with her boyfriend Eddie Miller who insisted they needed to spend some time away from the mysteries that plagued them at school. The part that worried her was meeting his friends and his mom. Instead of dwelling on what she would say when she got there she put her ear phones in, blasting music and waiting for the plane to touch down.
Meanwhile Eddie was getting ready to go pick up his girlfriend from the airport. His mom was fussing over the fact that he wanted to pick her up in a cab himself rather than her driving.
Eddie's POV
"Honestly Eddie it's no big deal if I drive."
"Mom please I don't want her to feel overwhelmed the moment she gets of the plane. You can deal for, like, an hour, can't you?"
"Alright, alright. I'm just excited to meet her."
"Thanks mom." I said giving her quick kiss on the cheek before I stared out the door to the cab. I didn't need my mom to make this into such a big deal, even though it was. I couldn't wait to see Patricia again. It had been almost a month since school let out and emails and calls just weren't good enough.
Patricia's POV
Finally! I thought this plane would never start its descent. I thought as the flight attendant made the announcement. As soon as she said we could get off I was already ripping my carry-on out of the overhang and to the stairs to avoid getting stuck behind the obnoxious tourists. My first impression of America getting off the plane was that it didn't seem all that different from England, except that it was a little brighter.
I quickly made my way to the check in desk and then started to look for Eddie. It looked like one of those cheese movies where everyone had a sign with their name on it. There are way too many people here I can't even get a glimpse of Eddie.
"Hey, Yacker!" I heard Eddie's yell from the middle of the crowd. I strained my neck to see him. That's when I saw a sign high up in the air that said "Yacker" in Eddie's handwriting. I smiled and looked up at his face as I made my way towards him. I stopped right in front of him.
"I can't believe you put that on a sign for everyone to see, slimeball!" I said with a chuckle.
"Good to see you to, Yacker." He said giving me a hug.
