I think I am about to be seriously plane sick. It has been three hours, and all that has happened it Alice discovering that Barneys was having a huge sale while we were going to be in New York and so had started bouncing. Kill me now. The only consolation I have is the fact that we only had four hours left. Agh. At this point, I don't even have my iPod to save me thanks to my charger breaking and me not realizing it. That's what I get for listening to my little sister when she says that the blinking red light means it's done charging. Now all I had to listen to was the fight going on between the people sitting next to me. Apparently according to a girl it's a bad thing to find your fiancée in the middle of a show with nothing but exotic dancers, poles, and a hard-on. Clearly this guy was a complete idiot. It's just too bad she didn't realize it before she agreed to marry him. He claims he was drunk but, c'mon, even I can see right through that lie. Normally I wouldn't care, but it was this or Alice's mumbling over whether it would be more practical to get the 4-inch Prada wedges or the Prada kitten heels. Ugh. I am officially stuck in hell. 4 more hours, only 4 more hours, I can get through this.

2 HOURS LATER

I can't do this. If these people don't shut up, I think I'm going to have a fit. At this point, I have a migraine, Alice is mad at me because I snapped at her for asking me which shoe I thought was more practical (after debating this herself for over an hour! Who needs over an hour to decide on one pair of shoes?!), and the couple next to me have gotten so loud that the flight attendant has come over twice with passenger complaints. Like everybody wasn't complaining. It could not get any worse than this at this point.
It just got so much worse. I was falling asleep when all of a sudden I felt something cold seeping through my pants. Apparently the brute next to me knocked his girlfriend's drink over, right into my lap. So now, I have a migraine, my sister is mad at me, and it looks like I peed myself. Seriously. When I imagined traveling to New York, I didn't think it would be anything like this. Only two more hours to go, Cullen. Just grin and bear it. Don't let yourself get away. I shook anyways. My hands tensed on the armrests. I was just about to scream when a small hand landed on my arm. "Edward, calm down" Alice said as she looked at me with concern. She knew my past. And unfortunately, she was right. If I let that get a hold of me now, there was no way I would be able to trust myself for any length of time. I just had to stay calm.

My butt hurts. I was happy, I was out of the hellhole I was in a few hours ago, but never before in my life have I had to sit for 7 hours straight. And on top of it, all I can smell is the disgusting airplane food. I may not have had the best life so far, but even I knew how to cook a pretty decent meal and boy, this is not one of them. My ears were ringing as I took off my earphones, the light above me turning red. "We will be landing in just a moment, please turn off all electronics and be sure that your trays are in the upright position. It's a gorgeous day here in New York, a cool 78 degrees with a slight breeze. Thank you for flying with us, and enjoy your time in the Big Apple!"
Finally, I was here. The nightmares were officially over; there was no turning back now. I bounced as the plane touched down, my heart racing, emotions flooding my brain. I don't know what I want to do first. Even as I looked out of the window, the sights were astounding. Light bounced off of the gleaming buildings, advertisements flashing on larger-than-life screens. The outline of the entire city stood tall against the bright blue sky. In just a few short minutes, I would be there. I could do anything; I was free. So what would I do first? "Eat a corndog" I whispered to myself, and the old man next to me turned to stare. This was my new beginning. And I can't wait to begin.

A/N: Hey everyone! Thanks for reading my story! I know it's a bit slow right now, and you're all probably really confused, but things will get a lot clearer in the next few chapters. If you read closely enough, you picked up on the fact that Bella isn't the only one with troubles in her past. Edward has a little secret he has kept for some time, and trust me; it isn't what you think it is! Message me with your theories!!
