Katie's POV

When I woke up this morning, I did not plan on anything bad happening. How did I know that heading to California to meet up with Travis for his family reunion he invited me to would make a slight detour that would change my life? Sometimes when I think back to this day, I wish I would have went back to bed. Or maybe I should have used a different route to California. Anyway you probably are wondering why I have all these thoughts, well let me start from the beginning… It all started when I got a call from Travis a few days ago.

*a few days ago*

I picked up my phone to see my best friend Travis calling. I quickly slide to answer the call and put the phone to my ear. "Hi Travis, did you get to California yet?"

"Yeah I did. So what's up?"

"Nothing, I mean it's the start of summer break, I don't even have anything planned yet." I answered.

"Oh, so what I hear is you're not busy," He said. I was curious what he was thinking.

"No,"

"Do you want to fly over to visit?" I stood for a moment wondering why he would want me of all people to join him at his family reunion, I mean we are best friends but why me.

"But it's your family reunion, and I'm not part of your family." I answer.

"Yeah but your my best friend, and I told my mom about you and she wants to meet you."

"Okay, but it might take a while to get a plan ticket,"

"No worries, I already bought you a plane ticket." I paused for a moment; he bought a plan tick before he knew I would say yes.

"But you didn't even know I would say yes."

"I was kinda hoping you would, and I bought it before I left, it put it in your bag."

"Okay, well thanks, when is the flight set for?"

"Friday. Four days before the reunion. I got to go so I'll talk to you later. Bye Katie-kat."

"Bye Stoll," I hung up and dug through my bag and found the plane ticket. As soon as I found it, I realized today was Wednesday, and the flight is on Friday. I only have two days to pack. I start to walk downstairs and hear hushed voices in the kitchen, I sit down on the steps, lean my head on the rail and listen to them.

"She's not normal." I hear my step-mother's voice.

"She is completely normal." My father argues.

"I don't like her, she always argues with me. I don't want her around when we are raising Daniel."

"She's almost 18 and will be heading for collage soon," My dad answers. A wave a sadness comes over me, I quickly push it away. Who cares what that wicked bi—I mean witch thinks about me. I walk into the kitchen I look at my step mother and shoot her a mean look and turn to my dad.

"Hey dad, I have a question."

"What is it Katie dear." He responds.

"Um, you remember my friend Travis right? Well he called and asked if I wanted to join him in California, I was wondering could I go?"

"Sure, a trip to California sounds great!"

"Thanks dad! He already bought me a ticket before he left," I say holding it out for him to see. He takes it and examines it. "It's set for Friday at 12:00pm." Dad hands it back to me and smiles.

"Well, I hope you have a great time." With that note, I turn with one more dirty look towards my evil step-mom and leave the room and head towards my room. I sit the ticket on my dresser and I sit in the window seat in my room and watch the stars, I didn't even I fell asleep.

*Friday(Day of the flight.)*

I wake up and jump out of bed. I look at my phone and check the time. It's 7:30am. I decide to take a quick shower and put on my normal outfit that consists of simple blue jean shorts, and a plain green tank top with a simple white blouse over it. I grab my suit case and back-pack and head downstairs. My dad is awake and meets me at the bottom of the stairs.

"Hey dad," I said as I hugged him, I sit down for a quick breakfast that my father made for me. After I finish eating I read the time on my phone, it's 8:30 and I shoulder my backpack, my dad takes my suit case and puts it in the truck of the car, we head to the airport. When we get their my dad walks me into the building, before he leaves he hugs me and kisses me on the cheek.

"I'll see you when you get back." He tells me. "I love you Katie."

"Love you too dad." I hug him one last time before turning around and heading for the check-in.

Once I get through all the security check points and finally get seated on the plain before it takes off. I ended up siting on the end buy the walk way. Next to me sits a young boy about 11 or 12 and next to him his mother. As soon as were in the air and the flight attendant allows us to use electronics I turn on the music on my phone, I only put in one ear bud. The boy next to me pokes me and I switch the ear bud and turn to face him.

"Hi," I say.

"Hi, I'm Thomas, what's your name?" he responds.

"My name is Katie," I answer. "So where are you headed?"

"Me and my mom are going to Disney Land."

"Sounds fun,"

"How about you?" he asks.

"I'm heading to meet up with my friend."

"Cool," he takes out his IPad and goes to a game, it's a tic-tac-toe app. "Would you like to play?"

"Sure," I look up at his mom who smiles at me and then goes back to reading her book. As we play the game, we both laugh as we both take turns winning, I lost track of how many times we play. What snaps me out of the fun time is when the plane starts to shake a little. I hold on to my seat.

"Dear passengers, we are experiencing some minor difficulties, we will be landing at the closest airport, please relax and remain calm." The flight attendant says through the speaker. I turn to face the boy, he looks at me with a frighten look. I put my hand on his.

"It's okay, You don't need to be afraid." His look lightens up a little bit

"Want to play another round—" he stops in the middle of the sentence as the plane shakes a little more violently then last time. This time, I don't even try to hide the fact that I'm scared. I terrified.

"Dear passengers, please buckle your seatbelts we are preparing for an emergency landing." The flight attendant announces, she has fear in her voice, and I don't blame her, wouldn't you freak out if your knew the plan you were on was going down. I buckle my seat belt and help Thomas with his. He holds on to my hand. I look over to his mother who is asleep; I close my eyes as the plane shakes violently and rapidly, not releasing Thomas's hand. I think about my dad and then think about Travis, I think about how I didn't even have my first kiss. I hear screaming from the passengers and close my eyes tighter as I feel the plane going down. Thomas is crying and nothing breaks my heart more when I hear him yelling at his mom to wake up as the plane gets closer and closer to the ground.
