Sav's heart raced as he looked out the window and gazed upon the unsinkable ship of dreams.
Titanic.
She was beautiful, truly a beauty, much like the woman seated beside him. He loved her, of course he did, but platonically. They'd been friends since childhood, and once his father left, he'd been forced to marry into her fortune.
As if that would work, he'd scoffed internally. But now it was real.
And staring upon the magnificent beast before him made it ever clearer.
The second he stepped off that ship and onto American soil, he'd be whisked off to marry his childhood friend, Dara Corcoran.

The squeaking of the door zapped him out of his thoughts, and he stepped out of the car to give his fiancé a hand out of the cab.
"I don't see what all the fuss is about. It doesn't look much bigger than the Mauretania." Sav muttered, following her out.
"You can be blasé about somethings, Rick, but not Titanic," Sav cringed internally at the use of his given name, something everyone knew he hated. "It's over a hundred feet longer than Mauritania, and far more luxurious. It has squash courts, a Parisian cafe... even Turkish baths."
Dara turned to face Sav's mother, Sally. "Your son is much to hard to impress, Sally. Mind your step."
Sav watched as his mother gazed up at the ship waiting to take him to his doom.
"So this is the ship that they say is unsinkable,"
He commented.
"It is unsinkable. Even God himself couldn't sink this ship." She said it proudly, as if she were boasting.
As if the ship were hers, not belonging to the captain, or the crew, or the team of people who'd built the ship.
No, this apparent unsinkable mass of iron belonged to Dara.
It was taking her on a journey to marry the love of her life, what more could she wish for?
