Dear readers, this is my very first story and it is meant to be a series.

*****
Courtney bid goodbye to her family and friends in the morning. Her mother was visibly emotional as she knew that her
baby
would be far for a while traveling and seeing the world. Her father, on the other hand, was trying to hide his emotions not to burden Courtney before her departure. She tightly embraced both her parents before taking her travel backpack and walking off to the train. She only heard everyone wishing for her to have fun before leaving.
Courtney found her seat and sat down, happy to see that she'd be alone for the ride as there was no one next to her. The excitement she felt was great, it was the first time she would be travelling so far and so long. She kept thinking of all the marvels and adventures she'd experience during that year in front of her. With those thoughts in mind and her imagination running, the short train ride was over quickly.
Seeing the airport just a few minutes away, she jumped off her seat, grabbed her bag and headed out of the train. As she got out, two handsome men in their thirties turned their heads and admired her beauty. Courtney was a petite girl appearing to be in her early twenties, her long and full red hear was shining in the sun and although she had made no effort to emphasize on her body that day as she wore comfortable clothes for the travel, it was clear that she was beautiful. She smiled at the two men who were getting in the train and walked to the airport.
After having passed through all lengthy and boring procedures, she was finally boarding the plane. She looked at her boarding pass once more: Los Angeles - Shanghai - Seat 36A.
As she got to her seat she took note that her neighbour had yet to be here and sat near the window, the seat was comfortable, and the plane seemed quite new. Observing the queue of people, she noticed a guy in the line. He wasn't any Casanova, yet she found him some kind of unique charm, he seemed taller than her, but not by a large margin, a strong build, broad shoulders and what she imagined would be a very nice chest, short black hair. He seemed about the same age as her. The young man was quite some distance away and didn't notice her gaze. Courtney kept running her eyes through the crowd of people, but nothing picked her interest after that young man.
A few moments later, the crew broadcasted a message asking for people to find their seat and sit down so the plane could take off on time. Courtney bend down to her feet to grab her phone in her bag, she then sent a message to her dad saying she was in the plane and it would take off anytime, she'd send a message when she got to her hotel but that would be after some 14 hours of flight. Her text sent, she switched her phone to airplane mode.
"Hi." she heard from her right.
Looking up, Courtney was surprised to see that it was exactly that young man she had seen just before.
Her eyes lit up and she smiled "Hi."
He was lifting his bag up to the overhead compartment when he saw her smile, he had noticed her striking red hair when he found his seat, but she was looking away and hadn't realized that his neighbour was such beauty. He blushed slightly but returned the smile.
Courtney was actually equally surprised; she had missed the boy's eyes the first time, from a distance away she had not noticed his clear green eyes that radiated intelligence. She feigned calm and turned her gaze towards the seat in front yet she couldn't not think how sexy and cute at the same time that guy was, his strong manliness paired with that devastating pair of green eyes was definitely very attractive to Courtney and she liked how his eyes showed some kind of smart side to him.
He finally sat down next to her, he seemed to look towards the other people in plane, but he kept throwing glances to the pretty petite girl that was seating next to him, he had rarely seen such beautiful hair, they had ample curves falling to her shoulders, her skin was fair and seemed like it would give the best smooth and soft feeling to the touch. She had stunning ocean blue eyes. Her face was definitely very pretty but the young man also couldn't help checking out her body, she was petite but with perfectly sized breasts from what he could imagine, probably a B cup he thought.
The plane was soon taking off an ascending which took a few minutes. After some time, the flight attendants came to serve some drinks.
One of them asked looking at Courtney "Hello, what would you like to drink?"
"Do you have wine? White if possible."
"We have two white wines one French Bourgogne and a Spanish one."
"Ugh, I don't know, what do you suggest?"
The attendant seemed hesitant, but it was Courtney's neighbour who answered with a smile:
"Take the Bourgogne."
It didn't make much difference to Courtney as she knew little about wine anyway, so she nodded to the attendant who then passed a small bottle and a glass to her.
"What about you sir?"
"I'll take the same, thank you." he got his bottle and filled his glass, then he turned to Courtney pointing his glass towards her. "Cheers?"
She smiled "What are we toasting for? Any special occasion?"
Smiling back, he said "There is nothing
yet
to toast for, but we might find a good excuse later, if not then we'll just say we celebrated traveling."
Courtney laughed "Seems fine to me, I'm Courtney."
