\\Michael//
Today was the day. I get to go on the cruise. My mom saved up all this money that we don't have, just to put me on this cruise. I have a fear of ships. One thing goes wrong, the ship sinks. I guess my mom just wants me to face my fears. She already paid for it so it's not like I can stay home.

I already have all my clothes packed, so I grab all of my brushes out of the jar I had them set in, and grab my notebook and paint. My mom talked to my friend Calum's mom; Joy and it turned out he could go with me. So I guess that's a plus.

"Michael! Your going to be late, come on get going to Calums Hun!" I roll my eyes and meet her down stairs. "I love you mom. If I die make sure my art gets famous." I say while hugging her. "Oh Michael, stop it. It will only be a few months."
A/N: I don't know? Can cruises be this long? They can now./   
"I love you too Michael. Have fun." I pull away and kiss her cheek. "Bye mum. Again, I love you." I say quickly. Once I'm out the door, I start walking to Calums house.
---------------------------------------------
"Mike stop shaking jeez, you'll live I promise." Calum says, chuckling. I turn around to face him and look at him with a straight face. "Don't promise things you can't keep mate." I mutter.

"Okay boys, this is as far as I can go. I hope you both have a great time, and be safe." Joy says in her usual cheerful voice. I open the car door and when I try to stand, I almost collapse due to my wobbling knees. "T-thanks Joy. Thanks for the ride." I smile at her and wait for Calum to be done saying goodbye.

As I'm waiting, I look up at the huge ship I'll be going on soon, and notice all the people look rich and fancy. I look down to my ripped skinny jeans and paint-stained white T-shirt, along with an old flannel I threw over it. Great. I'm not going to blend in. I look back at Calum's outfit. His mom always dresses him up so he was currently wearing a black classic suit with his own signature black converse. He'll fit in at least.
Maybe he has a suit I could borrow. "Ready Mike?" He asks while nudging me. "Nope. But let's do it." I say loudly.

As we walk to the doc, I sense someone looking at me so I turn my head to the right. I feel a huge impact on my chest. I look down to see a boy in a suit. He actually looks about the same age as me. "Watch where your going sir." He says rudely. He then stands up, brushes himself off, and eyes my outfit. As he does that, I glance at his facial features. He had blond hair that was in a quiff, beautiful bright blue eyes, a slim button nose, a very defined jawline and a mouth that looked like it had been stained with rose petals. He was a beautiful sight. "Sorry mate. Didn't mean to piss you off that bad." I say chuckle. "I'm Michael." I stick my hand out for him to shake. He just scoffs and walks off to two more stuck up people that are probably his parents.
Calum laughs and pats my back. " don't get too hooked on him, he acts like he's got a stick up his ass" he continues to laugh but I just keep watching the boy. "Okay come on Mike, we gotta go." Cal nudges my arm and starts walking to the ship.

A/N: okay this isn't going to be exactly like the titanic. Because YES I know the titanic was not a cruise it was for getting mail, and passengers safely to another destination. But I decided to make it a cruise. Also, fun fact; my step-great, great, great (I don't know how many 'greats' grandad was in the boiler rooms of the titanic, so he would've died earlier. Ash will be in this.
