"We will shortly be arriving to New York City. Please stay in your seats and have your trays in the upright position. Thank you, and thanks for flying AirTran."

The flight was almost over. Serena sighed with relief.

She was glad she had brought her notebook, and she was already starting on a story.

*******************

Darien scurried out of the office in a hurry. He had just been in a board of directors meeting, that took 2 hours. He was glad it was over. Running out of the office to the safety of his home, a new girl had tried to stop him.

"Darien, my name is Mina, and I would like-"

"I'm sorry, I really don't have time right now. Make an appointment with my secretary, and I would like to talk to you."

He left the girl speechless as he ran down the stairs (elevators were too slow) and into the parking lot, where his BMW sat in the reserved spot.

*******************

Serena's plane had landed, and she had gotten her baggage. There was this really cute guy on the plane next to her, trying to grab her attention as she wrote. He had actually looked over and read some of it and complimented her.

She was now leaving JFK, passing through the clear glass doors. When she got outside she looked up into the tall skyscrapers and the smog that covered New York City. The sun was trying to peek through the grey clouds.

Someone bumped into her with a faint 'Watch where you're going' and knocked her down. Thankfully she only had two suitcases, or else everything would've scattered. She hadn't realized how crowded New York was until she had fallen.

Women with buisness suits and stylish black boots passed her in a hurry. Men with suits and ties stepped over her. One kid jumped over her suitcase on a skateboard. She tried to pick herself up when she realized she had spreained her wrist. THIS SUCKED!

She picked up her suitcases tenderly and jumped up, wobbling for a second. She had alwasy been clumsy. Sammy used to tease her when she had fallen when playing soccer of cleaning the barn. She had even once feel off of a horse, which had been a near death experience. She remembered how her parents had been all teary eyed, even though nothing was wrong.

******************

The traffic in New York had alwasy annoyed Darien. He was near JFK, where his penthouse was. He honked his horn repeatedly so he would actually move his car. He saw an opening and sped up. What missed his eyes was a girl walking across the street.

****************

Serena had found an opening in the traffic and ran across. She heard a honking horn and turned to look. A car was speeding towards her approaching rapidly. She shielded her eyes......and suddnely she blacked out.

OOOOH, I know. =] Sorry I never update. I'm trying to get over this humongous writers block. Sorry if this chapter is horrid. =[
