PLANES.
I sighed as I sat staring out my lounge window, seeing the taxi pull up .It was to soon, I didn't want to leave New York, Not yet. I was 16, the prime of my life, and I was moving away from it all? It SUCKED. I could hear my family calling to me, to hurry. So I stood, and turned, nearly crying at the bare room. Everything we didn't take with us was already sold, "we can buy new, and won't it be exciting?" I can recall my mum saying to me excitedly the other day. "Okay… Okay… I'm here." I said to my mum as I piled into the car next to her, we didn't have any bags, apart from our carry ons. Everything was all ready there- in Los Angeles. - The place where I knew No one. Where I had to start a new school. Where I had to create my status of popular again. I sighed with sadness and closed my eyes.
"Hi." I heard come from the sit next to me. I sighed, this would be a bad enough flight, and I didn't need some boy trying to chat me up the whole time. I was not in the mood. I sighed and slowly turned to look at him. "I'm n-"I stoped short of my sentence, He was, gorgeous. Floppy light brown hair, sort of wavy so it added just enough volume so it sort of, Poofed. He had light highlights running through it as well. His eyes, Oh my. They where an emerald green, bright, happy eyes. They suited his smile, it was perfect, crooked, with him ever so slightly showing a small amount of tooth, which where, as expected, perfect white. "Juliet,' I continued, "I'm Juliet" I said again, because the first time had broken off. I flashed him a smile too, then turned away to do up my seatbelt. I heard a small chuckle and I looked at him again, quickly. He grinned this time, as he said. "Well, I'm Romeo" I must say I laughed. I thought he was making a joke. "Your not SERIOUS right?" I asked him, not believing this.
"Dead serious" He said showing me his passport "Romeo Clark Hyde" Yup. He wasn't joking. I laughed more. "Huh, I guess I found my true love then" I said, winking, as the plane pulled into the air."I guess you did…" He said as he threw his arm around my shoulders, and pulled me closer to him. He grinned when I didn't protest. It was better sitting close to him, then that the fat guy on the other side of me. "So, why are you going to LA?" He asked me as he absentmindedly twiddled my hair in between his fingers. Thank god, I washed it this morning, and straightened it… and put make up on… And decide to wear grey skinny jeans and a off the shoulder Bob Dylan top, instead of sweats and a hoddie like I was originally planning to. "Well, Mum got job at the hospital. So I have to move there…" I said, with a slight bitterness in my tone. "What about you?" "Oh, I live there, I was in New York to see my friend who moved there, that's why imp on the plane alone." He laughed. I certainly wasn't on the plane alone, my mum and dad and my sister- Maria- Where sitting in front of me. I was just the unlucky (Or lucky- seeming as I'm with Romeo) one who had to sit in the aisle in behind them. "Oh? Maybe we live near each other- unlikely though" I giggled. Los Angeles was a big city after all.
Romeo's POV
Juliet. Hahaha, who would have thought? A pretty girl sits next to me on the plane, and her names Juliet? Fate, man, fate. I looked down at her; she was leaning against me, with her head on my chest. She'd fallen asleep pretty soon after the plane took off, curling up to me. That made me smile, of course. I'd known her about 20 minutes and so far : She was sleeping on me, I was playing with her hair, I had my arm around her, And she was holding my hand. (Something she did in her sleep, I guessed. She certainly wasn't awake when she had.) I was pretty happy with myself. I sighed and leaned slightly back, trying not to wake her. I brushed her medium brown hair out of her eyes (Which were sparkly and brown, so pretty.) Her top had slipped just a bit more than needed off her shoulder, exposing more than she needed. So I pulled it up, careful not to touch her skin, but the movement still woke her. "How much more?" She yawned. I couldn't help but chuckle. She wakes up, I'm moving her top, she's lying on me, holding my hand, and all she wants to know is how much longer in the flight. I was about to check my watch when the seatbelt sign came on, and the PA system crackled, with the droning voice of the flight attendant telling us to be ready for decent. She yawned once more. "Guess I should stay awake then…" She mumbled, smiling at me though, when she noticed our hands. "Oh… I didn't… when you where asleep… You… "I struggled to explain how she had grabbed my hand. She just laughed in response. "Don't worry about it." she giggled, without moving her hand away from mine. "So, is your parents picking you up?" she asked, obviously moving back into her questions."Uh, nah… They are both working, I was just going to get a taxi, and I guess you guys are doing the same?" I asked her. I would have driven myself home, but my parents had dropped me at the airport last week so I didn't have a car. "That's the plan… Which suburb do you live in anyway?" she asked me, I had, of course, been wondering about that to, where she was moving to. "Um… Redondo beach…" I said, not even expecting her to know where that was, although from her face, I think she did.
Juliet's POV
"Um… Redondo beach…" he said carefully. I opened my eyes wide. Maybe LA wasn't as big as I thought. "What really? I'm moving there! Maybe our streets are close?" I wouldn't have a clue, but I knew he would. I was annoyed at myself for letting my hope seep through into my tone. He chuckled. "Miramar Drive. 407. And you?" He said, lifting the hand I was holding and placing it on his lap, although he didn't let go of me while moving it."Uhh… South Irena Street? Or something… 413" He chuckled. "South Irena Avenue." he said with that perfect smile. "And yea, we're close." I smiled. This was good. "Fates just pushing us together" he said with a wink as we felt the plane land on the tarmac. I pulled my hand from his, while still looking at his face, to undo my seatbelt. "Fate is finally going my way…" I murmured to myself. "Look, its gonna get busy out there soon, so, here." he said, pulling a pen from his bag and scribbling his number on my hand. "Text me sometime - we'll meet up." I smiled at him, taking the pen from his hand writing my number on his hand as well."Will do." I said with a smile as I got up to leave with my family."Who was THAT?" I heard my sister Maria ask me with surprise written all over her voice."Romeo" I said with a smile and moved faster to catch up to my mum, hearing Maria laugh behind me, thinking I was joking.
