I never in my whole life thought my parents would let me fly by myself. We were in the car driving to the airport, which is two hours away from my house and that is a pain when you have two twin seven year old brothers Johnny and Jose screaming in both of your ears. I was going to Charlotte, North Carolina to visit my aunt. My dad has to stay and keep guard on my mom because she has brain cancer and my brothers are “too little to travel” not that I want them to go anyway, man that would be a pain. “Man that’s a Monster plane” my dad said, and Johnny climbed over me to see which hurt my legs like crazy! We were arriving at the airport and honestly, I was scared I have never traveled anywhere without my parents I have never been to any overnight

My Dad, Johnny, and Jose already left, so I am all alone with my blue tag around my neck waiting. I don't know how or when I fell asleep, but I woke up to the copilot shaking my shoulder. He helped me with my bags and found me a seat not next to the window I found out his name was Jeff Skiles. He told me if I needed anything just to ask the nice flight attendant Doreen Welsh, I guess I was the only teen who was flying by myself. There was a nice lady next to me with her grandson who was five years old. They closed the airplane doors and the pilot, Chesley Sullenberger made an announcement on the speakers “good afternoon ladies and gentlemen we are traveling from New York to Charlotte, North Carolina it is going to be roughly a two hour flight so sit back, relax and enjoy the flight”, he then chuckles but nobody looks like they think that's funny.

I managed to slip through a crack and made it on the boat. There was no sign of the little boy or his grandma I hope they are ok. My first time on a plane by myself and this is what happens. We are traveling back to land now. I have no clue where we are now but i was shaking next thing you know my parents are calling me turns out they called me twenty times, I guess they heard about what happened. I answered “hello” “Lexie oh my gosh” my mom said “are you ok” “I’m fine.” Then my phone cut off no signal great. We had a ride to the nearest airport and all of the people on the plane got on another plane ,headed to Charlotte, North Carolina the flight was a few hours and It was finally over I am glad it is. I saw the little boy and his grandma leave, they were traveling to go see his mom and dad who were both waiting for them outside the terminal “Bye Lexi” he called to me I don’t know why but somehow that made me feel good inside “Bye Mykel” He turned smiled at me and left with his parents I scanned the terminal lots of parents, grandparents crying. My Aunt was waiting for me and she heard about what happened too, she hugged me so hard my head hurt. I was so happy because my cousin, Maddy came up here all the way from Alaska, was with her too, I was so excited, she is a week older than me we hugged and I caught up on all of her information and I shared mine
