you.

chapter 2

*i see him walk into the room and our eyes meet. i smile and wave. he waves back and sits down next to me*

ivy- hii, nice to meet you kinda
joey- hey

*we laugh and hug. we talk about a bunch of things, getting to know each other for awhile before others started to coming in. i didn't think it would be easy to just click with him since i have anxiety but it just happened i guess. the movie started and the lights dimmed. i could feel him looking at me and my cheeks started to heat up. i looked up at him, since he's taller than me even when sitting, and we smiled at each other. a few minutes into the movie i heard him fake yawn and put it arm around me. i giggle softly and lean into him. we just met but he makes me so happy. as the movie went on, i felt my eyes shutting as i lay my head on his chest.*

joey- hey sleepyhead, wake up the movie is over.
ivy- what? huh? what time is it?
joey- only 11:30, what time do you need to be back?
ivy- my sister said no later than 1:00.
joey- well should we walk around the ship then?
ivy- that sounds nice.

*i smile and look up at him. we stand up and walk out of the movie room as we are the last ones out. we walk into the hallway and look around.*

joey- where should we walk to?
ivy- all the stores on the ship are closed so let's go outside
joey- i'm down

*i smile at him and start running outside. i get outside and i feel arms pick me up from behind. i blush and laugh as he throws me over his shoulder.*

ivy- joey whatever you do! you are not throwing me in the pool unless you go with me!
joey- so i can still throw you in?
ivy- no no no
joey- what if i do?
ivy- you're coming in with me and i'll call you hoey

*he laughs and puts me down. i immediately feel cold and shiver. he wraps his arm around me and we start to walk around the perimeter of the boat. after walking around for awhile, i check the time and see that it's 12:45. i look up at joey and pout as he pouts back.*

joey- i have to bring you to your room huh?
ivy- yeah, sadly.
joey- we still have 12 more days.
ivy- true.
joey- so let's go to sleep now and tomorrow we can hang out some more, maybe even breakfast or lunch together.
ivy- lunch would be better for you because i'm not something you want to see in the morning.
joey- oh shush i'd let you get ready, not like you even look bad.
ivy- yeah yeah let's go before i get in trouble birlem.
joey- how'd you know my last name?
ivy- your table at dinner said reservation for birlem on it.
joey- ohh yeah i forgot about that.

*i laugh and run with him to my room. we slow down. well, i slow down which causes him to slow down also. we reach my room and stand there silently, not wanting to say goodnight. we lean in for a hug and stay there for a few seconds.*

ivy- thank you birlem.
joey- for what?
ivy- hanging out with me, i had fun.
joey- so did i, that's why we are hanging out again tomorrow.
ivy- who said i agreed?
joey- oh i'm sorry, ivy do you want to hang out tomorrow?
ivy- joey i'm kidding, of course i'd hang out with you even if you didn't ask me.
joey- oh thank god.

*i laugh and say goodnight before walking into the hotel room. i smile to myself and lay down in bed. i wake up the next morning to skylar hitting me with a pillow*

ivy- what the hell do you want? i'm sleeping.
skylar- ouch someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. anyway, your little boyfriend is here.
ivy- i don't have a boyfriend. joey is a friend. we literally met yesterday.
skylar- yeah yeah get ready, he wants to take you to breakfast.
ivy- okay.

*i put on some high waisted shorts with a long sleeve shirt. i rinse my face before putting mascara on and putting my hair in a messy bun. i quickly put some black vans on and walk out the door, seeing joey standing against the wall.*

ivy- good morning early bird.
joey- it's 10am.
ivy- exactly, early.

*i laugh and we start walking to breakfast. we sit down and i look at the menu. i glance up at joey and see him looking at me.*

joey- sorry, you're just really cute.
ivy- nooo.
joey- uh yeahhh.
ivy- fine.

*i order a crepe with hash browns and he orders some pancakes with bacon. i attempt to take a sip of water but joey makes me laugh and i spit it out.*

joey- awe your laugh is cute.
ivy- you're cuter.
joey- look who's flirting now.
ivy- not flirting, just saying the truth.
joey- but saying it in a flirtatious way.
ivy- whatever.
joey- ms attitude is here.

*i burst out laughing as our food comes. i start eating and see joey take a bite on my hash browns.*

ivy- you are so dead. give me bacon.
joey- but it's mine.
ivy- the hash browns were mine.
joey- open your mouth.

*i open my mouth and he feeds me a piece of bacon. i take it out of his hand and eat it slowly. after we ate, i offered to pay but he insisted. we stood up and he walked me to my hotel room.*

ivy- we're already done hanging out?
joey- no you're going to get ready to swim.
ivy- fine then after we are going to your room so you can.
joey- of course love.

*i blush and he kisses my forehead softly. i walk into my room and change into a bathing suit in the bathroom then putting a big t-shirt over and go back out to him.*

joey- oh my gosh
