To meet, to know and then to part is the saddest thing in a human heart.

April, 1912

The RMS Titanic was a splendor. And it was on its first ever maiden voyage from Liverpool England to New York. It was said that it was the ship of dreams and that is was unsinkable and those who were about to travel on it where extremely lucky. It was a busy morning as passengers of all classes flocked the docks to board the Titanic on its voyage to New York in America.

On this beautiful day, the Titanic was ready to host on board His Royal Highness Prince Harold II. As the Royal party made their way on board the vessel, the Prince was treated with all the royal splendor the Titanic offered. The Prince was young. He was only 23 and the next heir to the British Throne. It was being whispered that the Prince was on his way to America to meet a possible match for a future wife. As he came on board he greeted the staff of the ship individually. He was a pleasant young man, tall and lean, with long brown, curly hair pulled back at the nape of his neck by a leather thong. He had the most mesmerizing green eyes and a smile that blocked out the sun. He was friendly and gallant, dressed in a black suit and white dress shirt.He shook hands with everyone who dared to approach him and he smiled a lot. Everyone could tell that he was kind and the people loved their future sovereign.

The Prince was shown to his quarters and once he was inside away from the public eyes, he exhaled slowly and the smile slipped off his beautiful face. He sat down heavily in a damask chair while his servants bustled in with the luggage and set up his rooms to make the Prince comfortable for the journey ahead. Prince Harold just sat in his chair, watching them go by until Thomas, his personal Valet approached him.

'Your Highness, the ship is about to set sail. Would you like to be accompanied up on the deck to see it off?' Harry looked up at Thomas and gave him a tired smile.

'No Thomas thank you. I think I will take a nap.' Thomas bowed slightly.

'Whatever your Highness desires.' Thomas clapped his hands and a few servants, who were all male, came rushing to help Prince Harold out of his clothing. Harold thanked them and settled into his bed. Thomas closed his curtains and informed him that he will be in the parlor should his Royal Highness need anything. With that, Thomas bowed and left the room, leaving the Prince to his own thoughts, thoughts that took away much of his happiness. But soon the dull thrumming of the engines and the swaying of the ship lulled him to sleep.

It was some time later that Thomas entered the Prince's dark room and gently woke him up informing him that he had dinner to attend to with the captain of the ship and some other nobles that were on board. Reluctantly, Harold got out of his warm bed and let the servants dress him and groom him.While they attended to him, Harold let his mind wander to a life he desired other than the one he was born into but knew he could never have. Still, inside his mind, he lived the life he wanted. A life where he was free.
