I couldn't be more thrilled with the response I got with the last chapter. Thank you so much ;)

This one kinda explains stuff. I cut right to this setting, because I kinda wanna move along quickly, and give the NY scenes a lot of attention.

Enjoy!

N-Y-K-K! Chapter 2 (Wow, it feels so good writing that!)

"Whoa…" she said quietly, watching the clouds grow and shrink.

"I know. Isn't it cool?"

"The coolest. I've never been on a plane before." She turned away from the window, looking at Finn. "This is the best."

He smiled. "Glad you like it, Manda."

"GUYS!" they heard a voice yell.

"Yeah?""How much longer?" Maybeck asked, popping up in front of them, over the seats.

"Twenty minutes," Amanda answered. "It'll go by quick. Like your driving," she laughed.

"We were gonna be late. I needed to drive fast!" he defended himself.

"I'm still shaky," they heard Willa loudly say from behind them.

"Shut up," he muttered, and flopped back in his seat.

Turns out Finn got permission from Nash to go on a two day trip there. The parents were fine with the Keepers going by themselves. Amanda had asked Finn how he got all of the tickets, because they were so expensive, but he only replied with a nod and an "I have my ways."

They had just caught the plane in time, because Charlene couldn't find her lip gloss at home. Apparently, she needed it. But Jess was able to convince her that she could get it in NYC, so she (begrudgingly) left her house.

By then, it was forty-five minutes till lift off, and the airport was a half hour away. Don't ask how they made it…but they did.

How can this get better? My first time on a plane, with all six of the Keepers, and all on my birthday.

And…they were going to New York. So that was a plus.

They didn't know what they were doing in New York at all, but whatever it was, it would be perfect. Because they were together.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seatbelts, we are about to begin our descent."

Amanda looked over at a grinning Finn, and jumped up and down. "This is it! We're finally here!" she exclaimed, crazily happy.

"Happy birthday," he repeated, glad again that she was enjoying herself.

She fastened her seatbelt, sat back, and looked out the window again.

She was having the time of her life…and they were only on the plane!

Bleh. Filler. Review?
