Chapter 2
I woke up with a light headache. & I splash water onto my face.
That couldn't possibly happen..
It's impossible, these are professionals running this cruise ship.
I get a knock on my bedroom door.
This is going to be fun, they said.
You'll remember this till you die, they said.
The greatest adventure ever, they said.
"Hey it's Emily, I hope you have clothes on."
"Oh wow, of course I do."
She walks in with her white gown and she looks so perfect.
"Hey my mom asked me to ask you to tell your family that you're going to the banquet with us tonight."
"Alright, that'd be fun."
She leans closer and pushes my chest onto the bed. GODDAM
"Hey remember what we talked about over the phone?" she asked me.
I show a big ass grin and of course I had to say,
"nope".
"What do you eat rice with?" LOL I could tell where this is going.
"My hand because I am a Filipino.. don't judge me."
"Oh ok."
I hop underneath the covers and she follows.
"Hey I'm still tired from that phone call though." she laughs.
Her laugh was so cute, I would love to hear it all day if I could.
She crawls underneath the blanket, "Can we take a nap together?" She asks.
"Oh yeah, of course. Because I didn't just wake up from one."
"WOW, you can leave then."
"Naw, I'd rather stay."
We face each other and we look into each other's eyes, we'd been waiting for this moment for a long time.
It was until that I had realized that I wanted to...
KNOCK KNOCK
"OH SH-"
"Hey Ian you forgot to cook rice.. Oh my god."
WOW, I hope she doesn't kill me.. T_T
"I'm going to pretend I never saw that." I could tell my mom felt really awkward walking into her son's bedroom with him and his girlfriend in the bed.
She walks out and closes the door gently, but leaves a crack just to watch over.
"Oh god, I better leave." Emily says.
"You know, there's always next time."
And in a flash of my eyes in an instant, she grabs my neck and gives me the slightest kiss ever, as if she planned it to keep me wanting more.
"Yeah you bet."
She leaves the room and says bye to my mom in the kitchen.
My mom walks into my bedroom.
Oh please..
"Hey Ian, I don't want to be a grandmother yet!" she complains.
"MOM, I WAS NEVER EVEN GOING TO.." She cuts me off.
"She can't be in your room anymore." She leaves the room and closes the door.
Oh God, If she can't be in my room then....I guess I'll be in hers. ;)
I put a SpongeBob bro tank on with orange swimming trunks. It was then that I decided to hit the pool.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The pool was huge, it was on top of the cruise ship with the sun beating down on us.
I could use a tan.
There were beach seats set around the pool with moms and their kids putting on Sun Screen. I then see a group of people my age swimming at the end of the pool.
They seem to be having fun with the beach ball. I seem intimidated by their looks as they can be deceiving.
I find a spot to lay my stuff and I text Emily.
Meet me by the pool. ;)
I'll be there in 30 minutes.
I sit down by the pool.
"Hey heads up!"
The beach ball is rolled towards me.
I pick it up and toss it back to the people and give a smile as I GOTCHU.
"AYO hop in the pool."
I get confused as I cannot tell who this person is talking to and I sit back down.
"Yeah you!"
I smile and I said "Alright."
I take off my sandals and shades and toss them aside. I run towards the diving board and all I could hear was
"NO RUNNING!" from the Lifeguard. But I didn't care, I was too young to care.
I splash into the pool, and it was the most refreshing feeling ever. I have never been in a pool in such a long time.
I swim over to the group.
"Hey what's your name?" this kid asks me. He had his dark hair back and had brown skin. He looked like a piece of bacon left out in the sun for 18 hours.
"My name's Ian. You?"
"They call me Jerimiah." Somehow I couldn't believe that his legit name was Jerimiah it didn't fit, he seemed more like a Jasper than a Jerimiah. Doesn't make any sense at all.
And out of the corner of my eye I see Emily walking down her way towards my stuff.
Then after a while, a man walks up to her.
She slaps him.
