"Please, let me at least put pressure on it?!"
"No! I'm not done stitching you up yet!"
"Jean! Look out!"
"Ahhhhh-!"

"We have now landed in Royal, Japan. Make sure to grab all belongings and watch after the little ones. Hope you had a great flight with Blue Airlines and have a good day!" A voice interrupts my sleep, making me groan slightly. I grab my duffel bag and wait for everyone to exit the plane.
Once the plane was empty, I stretched out my arms, yawning loudly, my back bones popping and cracking. I scratch the back of my neck as I walked down the steps to reach the luggage carrier. I found my bag off to the side, being all alone. I grabbed the case, placing it on the floor and propping my duffel bag on top. I rolled around, aimlessly, till I heard a loud voice scream. (I don't know how airports work)
"Mrs. Holmes! Uh, Scout! Um, Jean! Jean Finch!"
I look around, annoyed the person used all my nicknames. Bystanders looked shocked and slightly alarmed from this voice, and what came out of it. I finally saw a large sign that read 'Jean Louise (Holmes) Finch'. I sighed, and started to walk toward the screaming human. Getting closer, I see a girl.
Her chocolate brown hair pulled back into a ponytail, some falling over her eyes and framing her face. Her brown eyes filled with curiosity and alertness. Her leather covered arms held high, holding the large white sign with my name on it. A blue satchel hanging off her shoulder. Her blue jeans sagging slightly as she jumped, seemingly trying to see over the sea of people. Judging by her voice, this girl is Lily, the girl Boris called out to on the phone.
I walk closer to the girl till I'm standing right in front of her. With a calm voice, I spoke,"Hello Lily."
"Huh!? Who are you?" Her brown eyes widen with slight fear and curiosity.
"Well you do have a sign with my name on it." I smile slightly, tilting my head to the left, my black hair following my small action.
She seems like an idiot with a heart of gold. Her mind seems to be in the right place, sometimes.
"Wha-!" I cut her off, already wanting to change after being in these clothes for a good 8 hours. And wanting to get food as well. And maybe a nicotine patch or two or three, or a packet of cigarettes. "So, where am I gonna stay for these three weeks?"
"Oh! We rented you an apartment." My face looks blank but my stomach is bursting with happiness.
I get my privacy. Thank god. I did not want to share a room with her. No offense but she looks like she wants to stick her nose in everyone's business. I hope they're paying too.
I nod and make a hand gesture, telling her to lead the way. She nods, excitement all over her face and overflowing in her eyes.

Once she dropped me off at my new apartment, handing me the key, she drove off in a hurry. It was six in the morning. She probably has work soon. Shrugging my shoulders, I head inside the tall building and go for the elevator. Pushing the button for the fifth floor, I stand in silence, except for the quiet elevator music. I lean up against the wall behind me. Taking a deep breath.
Soon, so much is going to happen. I'm going to save lives, help with a case, and possibly make a new friend or two. Everything is happening so fast already. I just left the calm safety of my small apartment in America only a couple hours ago. Got on a plane and eight hours later, landed and meet a new person who I might risk my life for. My life is going to be slightly more packed then before.
The moving room beeps, telling me i've reached my desired floor, and interrupts my thoughts. I exit and start walking down the hall, my bag rolling and my hair swaying.
I hear different sounds that all basically lead to the same thing, waking up. The sounds, and smells, of food sizzling atop the stoves. The sounds of water dripping and hitting a persons body. The annoying sound of people chattering inside the rooms. The sound of kids rushing around the house to get ready for school. Yep, its a Monday morning here in Japan and the sweet sounds and smells of people getting up for work, school, and everyday errands surrounded me.
I walk towards a door with the gold numbers of '504'. I look at the key the brunette gave me and unlocked the door. Bringing my bags in, setting them by the now closed and locked door, I take a look around the place I get to call home for three weeks. A decent kitchen with a dinning room, bedroom and bathroom, including a small office. And a balcony!
This is so cool! I never had a balcony before! I always wanted to walk over here and drink hot coffee, the fresh air bitting my face and body, the steam from the cup rising and moving more freely. The clean scent of fresh coffee or tea beating into my nostrils. Man, I can believe this is happening.
Walking back to my bags, I drag them to my new room and start putting stuff away. Clothes in the large closet and drawers. Electronics in my office. Small pictures of my family on my bedside table and on my desk. Putting my tooth brush and soaps away in the bathroom. Finding a safe in the closet, I placed all my money and jewelry inside, writing the combo on my stomach, backwards and upside down.
Once everything was put away, I looked at the alarm clock nearby, seeing that it was 7:43 am, I decided to take a nap. Jumping onto the king sized bed, I got under the covers and blankets. My blue ocean eyes immediately got heavy, making darkness cloud my vision till my breath evened out and I let sleep take over.
(A/N) sorry im gonna go through and edit each chapter for small mistakes and even adding more details to some. Sorry for the spam.
