"I can't believe we're actually going to Colorado!" Exclaimed Danie as her short bobbed head shook.

"You act like you've never left Chestnut valley." I said.

"She hasn't been away from Montgomery street a day, without worrying that Jason doesn't have enough cat food for Sasha and Jasper." Lillie exponded.

"Well they're appetite has drastically changed over the past few weeks." Mimked Jesse.

"It has." Danie protested.We all laugh in unison.

"Flight 57 takes off in 5 minutes." Says a voice over the microphone. We all give the flight attendant our tickets. I slip into the seat behind my three best friends. Only because of the quietness the plane is engulfed with, do I realize that my head is killing me.

I lean my head against the seat, and I start thinking about why I'm even on the plane. To see my aunt Mae, I suppose. Sweet aunt Mae was my dad's sister.

I hadn't seen her since the accident. But I still had the fondest memories of her chasing me around the Christmas tree and baking the best lemon marane pie. Uncle Phil and I use to always lick the spoon after each pie was in the oven. Lost in my thoughts, I hadn't noticed that a figure was standing next to me.

"Is this seat taken?" Asked the figure.

"No." I answered, surprised by his deep voice.

"Thanks." He sat down next to me. Only then did I realized how HOT he was. His dark brown hair was slicked up. His hazel green eyes stared at my dull brown ones, and I found myself mesmerized.

"The names Jake. Jake Matthews." He stared at me waiting for an respond.

"Vivian Knight." I say. He held out his hand.

"Nice to meet you, Vivian."

"The pleasure is all mine." I state, as I put out my hand to shake his. He smiles showing two rows of perfectly straight pure white teeth.

I feel like I'm going to faint."Do you live around here?" He asks as we take off.

"Yeah, in Chestnut valley. You?" Not wanting to give to much information to a guy who I just met.

"No I'm Running away from home."

"Really? Honestly I wouldn't have had the guts too." I say, speaking the truth. I mean I have a great life, so why would I?

"Ha no, I'm just going to Ravensdale to see my grandparents." My eyes pop out of my head. This hottie could not be going the same place as me.

"Cool well then I guess I'll be seeing you around." I imply my eyebrows scrunched up.

"Oh? Why is that?" He asks, his mouth turning into a dazzling smirk.

"Because I'm going there too." I state flatly. I stand up to see Danie, Liilie, and Jesse easedropping on our conversation.

"Jake meet my friends Daniella Smith, Elizabeth Gomez,and Jessica Watson. They're also going to Ravensdale." He nods at them in acknowledgement and smiles up at me.

"This trip keeps getting better and better." He says happily.

Boy was he right.
