MOST OF THESE IDEAS ARE NOT MINE. THANKS TO THE TITANIC WRITERS AND DIRECTOR I GATHERED SOME IDEAS!

"Guess what darling?"
"What?" My mother had some news.. I could tell it in her voice.
"Your father, before he left, he left money in the cabinet so I bought tickets for the titanic!" My father left 3 years ago, he took most of our money, mainly his, and just left. I've heard about the titanic recently. Apparently the ship of dreams... Not to me. Just another ship taking me to an unknown place, well at least for me it's unknown.
"You are so excited because?" I was questioning my mother seeing what she knew about this ship.
"Because darling, I have 3 tickets"
"You only needed 2." I said with attitude.
"So you and Russell can get married." Argh great. Now it's a ship taking me to my wedding.
"Oh! Yes mother! What a great idea!" I said trying to keep my sarcasm from leaking.
FLASH BACK...................
"now you must look nice Victoria." My mother said pulling out a dress.
"for?" I asked
"This dinner we've been planning for months" oh yes the one with Russell. So here I was being escorted into a cart pulled by horses. At the restaurant Russell was the holding his arm out. So I put mine around his arm to look normal and polite.
"Hello gorgeous." He said as we linked elbows.
"Straight back!" My mother whispered loudly. My mothers name is Edith. A nicer proper lady who was, well, very proper. She was always correcting me. So I stiffened my back straight.
"Here madam" a wait or directed me to my seat.
"What can I get you? Madam?" I wasn't listening.
"Oh... Yes. The chefs special please." I said. I was staring out the window on to the sea. Oh boy! I thought it would be nice to be a bird, free spirited, free, can go where ever I want.... My thoughts were interrupted by Russell's voice.
"Vicki! Isn't that right?" My nickname was Vicki. I just nodded.
"Vicki, come with me." Russell said pointing outside. My mother was giving me the eyes. Go! Go, you must. I gave her the eyes back. Fine! So he escorted me outside to the area with chairs and tables. The sun was beautiful, just about to set.
"You know, the sun is beautiful, just like you." Russell said. I'm pretty sure he was flirting.
"Aww thank you!" I replied.
He knelt down on one knee and said.
"Victoria mesitt-smither, will you marry me?" He pulled out a giant beautiful ring. There was a bit of a pause. Then I saw my mother giving me the do it! Eyes. So I did... I said yes. Soon after I said yes the whole entire restaurant started clapping.
END OF FLASHBACK-engagement.
" We leave on the 10 of April!" My mother was excited.
