My Story: R.M.S Titanic [Completed]

50: Idiot

After the tour, Scott and I returned to our suite and seemed very shy suddenly. I grabbed my drawing stuff because he had asked me to draw him so I figured that the private promenade would be the best place.

"Come on. The flowers and ocean would be-" I started. He grabbed my arm and shook his head.

"I didn't mean that type of drawing," he said. I smiled at him and looked at the bedroom. I put my stuff down and held his neck.

"You don't have to pose for me, Scotty," I stated. He looked at the ground.

"It would make you happy and I want you to be happy," he whispered. I laughed and shook my head.

"It will only make me happy if you want to do it. I am happy with you around," I stated. He laughed and looked behind me.

"I guess you got a new book," he said. I turned around and looked at the new book I picked up from the reading room on the tour.

"Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare," I stated. He walked to my book and picked it up to open it.

"Two households alike in dignity, In fair Verona where we set our story," he said. I smiled as he continued.

Three hours later, Emma and Robert were reading with us as we acted out the whole Romeo and Juliet play. It was actually fun to read the play out loud and play out the scenes.

"It's such a sad play!" Emma exclaimed. I laughed as she sat down on the couch and joined her.

"Thank you for letting us join you," Robert told Scott. I smiled at Scott and he sat down on my other side. He kissed my forehead and I smiled.

"Look at the time," Emma stated, "We need to get you two ready for dinner." I smiled and looked at Scott.

"Lead the way Emma," I said and she stood. I followed, realising that what Scott and I did was considered out of line and Mr Ismay could have everything and ruin us.

"That was very entertaining to do with you and Mr. Sire," Emma said. I smiled at her as she pulled out a dress that was a light weight purple silk and a light pink bow at the waist.

"This doesn't seem like an evening gown," I stated. She smiled.

"Mr. Sire ordered Robert and myself this morning to show the youthfulness of you two through your evening wear tonight," she said. I laughed and smiled at the gown.

When Scott and I finished dressing, I looked at the way Scott was dressed and it was like falling love all over again. I couldn't help but to notice everything good about him and smile, knowing that he was my fiancé. He was perfectly perfect in everyway.

"Mae," he breathed as he noticed me standing at the doorway. I smiled and walked towards him. I felt overly comfortable in my flats but it was weird that we were going to go out with our actual height difference.

"Good evening, Scott," I stated. He walked closer and I took his hand. He rubbed the top of my hand with his thumb and I smiled at our hands.

"I wish we could skip dinner," he said. I smiled at him and looked up through my eye lashes.

"What if we did?" I asked. He studied my face and I held it still.

"Robert, Emma, if anyone asks you where we are tell them that we left for dinner and you haven't seen us since," Scott said as he held my hand. I laughed as he pulled me out of the suite. We ran down the hall, getting dirty looks from several of the people in the hall.

"Scott!" I exclaimed as he ran out on the deck. He spun in a circle, pulling me around him. I went into his chest and I put my hands against his chest as he ran his fingers through my hair that was left down.

"I think you have the best ideas," he stated. I smiled and he laughed.

"Mr Ismay is going to kill us," I told him as we stood on the deck. He shook his head.

"How could he? We have leverage on him," he said and I smiled at him. I laughed at him and he held me closer to him.

"Does that make us terrible people?" I asked. He shook his head.

"He blackmailed you and your father which technically forced us to become engaged," he said. I looked at him and he moved my hair as the wind whipped it in front of my face.

"That is true. However, our engagement is the best thing to ever happen to me in the eighteen years that I have been alive," I stated. He suddenly got a very weird smile that made my smile disappear. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"You are turning nineteen in four hours," he stated. I smiled again and moved his hair that was on his forehead.

"That is a fact. I will nineteen in four hours," I agreed with him and he kissed me, in public where everyone could see. "Scotty!" I exclaimed, pushing him from me as I stood still.

"What's wrong?" he asked. I dropped my head and played with my hands.

"Everyone could have seen that," I whispered. He tilted up my head and laughed.

"Then let them see. Let them see that we don't care if they are looking at us while we are kissing. I love you, Miss Mae Morgan!" he yelled to the stars that were starting to shine down on the world. He was acting like a third class man but I couldn't help but to laugh at the behavior of Scott.

"You are an idiot," I told him and he moved my hair that I had hid behind.

"I am your idiot," he said and I hugged him.

"That you are," I said.
