Isabellas POV

Wow. January 1st 2014. I can't wrap my mind around the idea that I'm dating Ethan. I woke up from a text message from my phone. It was Ethan.

Ethan- meet me at the top deck in a few

Bella- ok what for

Ethan- can't I just see my beautiful girlfriend

That made me blush.

Bella- ok meet you there in a few

I turned off my phone and got ready. Amber was still sleeping. I guess she'll text me when she's awake. I headed to the top deck. There he was. It was early in the morning and he looked tired.

"Hey beautiful" he said giving me a kiss.

"Why did you want to see right now this early in the morning?" It was like 5 in the morning.

"I need to talk to you." He was being serious.

"W-what is it." I stuttered.

"We only have like 2 days left. I'm going to miss you like crazy. I have to go back to New Jersey and you have to go back to New York." He said in a sad voice.

"Yea. I'll miss you like crazy too." I said trying not to cry.

"Look I know we're still young but I know that in the future we're still going to be together. Even though everyone says we won't make it. I believe." He grabbed my hands. The sun was rising and it was really pretty.

"I believe too Ethan. I don't care what the other people say." I decided to make the biggest move of my life. "Ethan I love you."

"I love you too Bella. Even though we just met like not even two weeks ago." He let out a small giggle.

"Ethan."

"Yea."

"Promise me we'll talk everyday and we'll FaceTime. Also promise me that we'll go out to see each other as much as we can."

"I don't have to promise because I was already going to do that anyway." He let out a faint smile.

"Also Ethan promise me you won't be with other girls." I said in a shaky voice.

"I promise. The only girl I love is you." I smiled and looked down.

"Since we only have like two days left let's make the most of them."

"Ok, so what do you want to do?"

"Well first let's go get breakfast I'm starving." He laughed and we got up. We held hands all the way to the diner area. We ordered food and ate.

"So what now." He asked me.

"Let's watch a movie." I grabbed his hand and we went to my place. I checked first just in case Amber was in there. She wasn't. I texted her.

Bella- hey Amber where are you

She didn't answer. I waited another hour to see if you would answer. She didn't.

"Ethan Amber isn't answering my text and I don't know where she is."

"I'll text gray see if she's with her."

Ethan- hey bro are you with Amber

Gray- no why

Ethan- she's not in Bella's room and she's not answering her text.

Gray- shit

Ethan- what what's wrong

Gray- I told her I wanted to break up with her but now I regret telling her that. E I still want her. I messed up bad.

Ethan- you're such an idiot gray. Where do you think she is.

Gray- I don't know but I'm going to go look for her

"What's wrong" I asked Ethan. He looked worried.

"Gray being the idiot he is told her he wanted to break up with her."

"Oh my god." I felt sad. They seemed really in love.

"She couldn't have gone far. She's on a cruise they have cameras." I said as Ethan and I walked out the door. We met up with gray.

"I'll check the diner area." Ethan said.

"And I'll check the top deck." I said.

"I guess I'll check everywhere else. Now go before anything happens to her." He seemed really worried. I checked one side of the top deck. Nothing. I checked the pool. Nothing. I then checked the other side. Yup there she was. Crying. Her face in her hands and her long blonde hair covering her face. I texted the group chat that Ethan, Gray, and I made before we split up.

Bella- hey guys I found her

Gray- oh thank god is she ok

Bella- she's crying but she looks fine

Gray- I'm such an idiot where is she

Ethan- let Bella talk to her first gray.

Gray- alright

I headed towards Amber. She was still crying. I hate seeing my best friend cry. It makes me want to cry.

"Hey best friend what's wrong."

"Gray. He tried breaking up with me." She cried harder.

"It's ok. It's not your fault."

"Yes it is. I'm in idiot thinking that he loved me. I knew he didn't mean it. He just used me."

"Amber that's not true at all. He does love you. He cares about you a lot."

"How do you know?" She looked up.

"Because I talked to gray to see if he knew where you were. He called himself and idiot and he said he regrets ever telling you that he wanted to break up with you." I wiped her face.

"R-really?" She stuttered.

"Yea and he wants to see you. He wants to apologize for everything. Amber he's waiting."

"Where is he? I want to talk to him." I texted gray to come now.

"He's on his way." I smiled and patted her shoulder. I got up and went to Ethan. Gray went to go talk to her. They were laughing so I'm guessing they made up.

"Let's go finish our movie." Ethan said wrapping his arm around me.

"Ok." I said smiling.

We went back to my room and watched the movie. We spent the rest of the day in my room. It was nice just to be with Ethan. I see now why Amber and gray left us all the time.

It was now dark. Ethan had to leave. I kissed him goodbye. He left. Amber came back.

"So are you and gray good now?"

"Yea he apologized. The reason he wanted to leave me was because he didn't want to deal with the pain of us being in a long distance relationship." Somehow I felt like that was lie. But I didn't say anything. "Thanks Bella for cheering me up."

"You're my best friend. That's what I'm here for." We both laughed and went to bed. I still can't think of why I think that the reason gray gave Amber about why he wanted to break up with her was still a lie. It just felt so wrong. I'm probably crazy. That probably is the reason I'm just overthinking it. And just like that, I'm fast asleep.
