A/N: YAY! You're back! Thank you so much!

"Bye guys!" James, Sami, Jessica, Matt and I were about to board the airplane to London with my parents. Teddy, Shar, Steven, Mal, and Paul unfortunately had to stay behind due to their parents being overbearing totalitarian weirdos. I was so excited for the plane trip! I hadn't been on a plane since I was eight and unlike Sami I love heights.
"All passengers for Chicago to London please board terminal L-12" the intercom gave yet another warning to those coming in late. We were walking down the terminal hall to the plane.
"Lets see. Our seats are right here." Sami was pointing at a group of five seats in a row. I immediately grabbed the window seat after shoving my carry-on bag into the compartment overhead. James sat next to me and pulled out his ipod, handing me one of the ear buds. Sami sat next to James so she and I could talk. In the aisle over Matt sat with his sister Jessica. My parents had gotten seating away from us in a feudal attempt to give me some more private time with my friends.
The flight attendants went through the emergency flight procedures. Jessica and Matt fly a lot so they knew the procedures by heart. Matt made everyone laugh by mimicking the women speaking. Once or twice we laughed too laud. One of the flight attendants glared at us. All we could do was laugh more in response.
The plane began to take off, I grabbed James' hand extra tight. He gave my hand a slight squeeze. My ears started popping. Finally we were up in the air. I looked out the window and all I could see were the puffy, white, cotton ball clouds. Our eight hour nonstop flight had began.
James turned on his ipod and passed me a bag of pretzels. We began to sing along to Angie Aparo's song Spaceship, bobbing our heads to the music. We looked at each other and laughed. Sami was reading "The Book Thief". It was a book that Teddy suggested, I've actually read it and it was extremely interesting, it was now one of my favorite books of all time. Jessica and Matt were deeply enthralled in the movie playing in front of the airplane, "Madagascar" occasionally chuckling out loud.
An hour later we ordered some food. Considering we didn't have breakfast all five of us were famished. The food quickly vanished, and we began to talk about what we would do once we reached London.
"Well mom and dad got us a hotel to sleep in for the next two weeks until I get moved into Kent. it's a two bedroom, one bathroom suite. They're getting their own room." I was telling everyone our housing arrangements and requested that Sami pass me my book bag from the overhead compartment. I pulled out a packet of the hotel information showing it around.
"An all inclusive spa and resort?! We get massages and stuff?" Sami was looking intently at one of the sheets of paper, this statement also caught Jessica's attention.
"Yup yup. Is that what you want to do first?" I was looking at Sami and Jessica, knowing that James and Matt didn't really have a choice.
"So no say from the guys eh? What about that two story arcade that looks amazing?" Matt had taken the hotel papers from Sami, the arcade caught James' attention.
"How about we go get some massages and pampering, then go to the arcade? 'Cuz I know I can beat your butt in DDR." I gave James a playful shove.
"Ok so first we check in, then get a little settled, then massages, food, and the arcade right?" Jessica was already planning stuff out, as usual she kept us straight. "What all are we gonna do the rest of the time though? We use up all ideas in the first two days, make it last."
"Ok so this week we explore London and next week we explore Kent prep campus?" I suggested looking around to see my friends reaction.
"Sounds great to me, man this trip is gonna be a hell-o-fun!" Sami reached over to James and landed a high five that was so loud it resonated around the plane cabin.
Everyone went back to murmuring amongst themselves or watching the movie. I laid my head onto James' shoulder, closed my eyes and let the music from his ipod pulse through my veins. James hummed along with the lyrics and I began to feel consciousness slip away. My eyelids felt heavy and my head disjointed from my body. I could faintly hear Sami talking to Jessica and Matt about plans for London. Whatever they plan I'd go along with it, as long as I'm with my friends I'll be ok.
