I woke up a bit later than everyone since I slept late because of someone, eyeroll, I had gone to the breakfast table to find everyone there but Esther and Clover. “Morning,” I greet, “is Clover having one of her crazy morning sicknesses?” “Yep, she yelled at me three times in five seconds,” Gian says amused, “that is a new record.” I chuckled, Gian was very understanding of Clover and this new journey she is going through, I smile as Esther comes to join us, without Clover. “Where is Clover?” I innocently ask. “I left her with her in laws?” I freeze at that statement; Gian’s family is not on this ship clearly because I would have known. “Which in laws?” I asked angrily. “Some old woman claimed to be her former mother in-law, she tried to get me to stay with her, imagine,” Esther rolls her eyes before feeling arms grab her collars. “You left her alone when she clearly told you not to?” I asked angrily, I know pretty well who th
“Good morning” I am startled by a deep voice in my bed, that I even tumble to the ground. “Ugh…, that hurts.” I murmur rubbing my sore butt that I landed on, I peek to the bed to see naked Heath on my bed. Oh yeah, I did make the bad choice of sleeping with him last night. “Get some clothes on, ugh,” I say standing up forgetting I was also naked, I quickly take the blanket to cover myself, Heath starts laughing, “don’t worry I don’t mind you not wearing any clothes.” He stood up to go to the bathroom not even caring to wear clothes, what did I even get myself into? “Ugh. I feel so sore,” I mutter, making him halt, “keep walking Heath.” He chuckles at my statement, “you really are cute do you know that.” Ugh what does he mean by that, I roll my eyes as I pick up his clothes up to throw on him. “Get dressed and leave Heath.” “Ouch, I feel used now, who knew my cute Fiona could be so heartless.” “Sorry for being so heartless poor
The room is tidy like always, and there is a plethora of books on his bed, he is reading, Heath Duncan is reading. “You read?” I asked confused. “Not really, but I went around asking how to woe a girl and they recommended some good books,” he says with a smug, I roll my eyes, still at the ‘trying to woe you’ lie. “How are you finding the process?” I asked. “Confusing,” he says, “first most men have what I have you know, typical playboys a lot of money.” He says, I cannot help but laugh he is trying to get relationship advice off romance books? Like, how he expects fictional lies writers tell to be true. “Since I haven’t woe the girl it seemed I am left with a few options, I either have to be a mafia boss, a vampire, an alpha or a king.” I burst out laughing with the seriousness of his voice, “you find this funny huh? You are the one making go through this,” he grumbles. “Maybe we should research deeper into these books,
[Third POV]During the tour around the ship the group finally noticed the absence of one of their own. After Selby exclaimed how awfully quiet Fiona was everyone started panicking.“Where could she have been?” Clover asked, “I will go check on her room.”“But she was on the deck the last time we saw her,” Lucas pointed out, Heath who was not worried when her absence was first mentioned was now panicking.“You think she went overboard?” he asked bewildered.“Oh, come on she could not have fallen overboard, she is probably playing hide and seek for attention,” Carl says making Heath snort at him, he had flinched as his boss and idol didn’t like his comment before sheepishly apologizing.“I will go check the CCTV,” Heath says determined, the rest of the group had stopped the tour to look around ship to look for their now missing friend.Heath had raced to the c
[Fiona POV] After I was pushed to the sea I tried swimming to the ship, well thankful for my father who forcefully taught me how to swim, but the waves don’t seem to be on my side. Why haven’t they noticed me missing? I ask myself as I try to fight the cold heavy waves. My father is clearly scolding me after I told him how I died, by the heavy cold waves, well he would be proud as well of how well I fought. I can already see that silly man telling me “at least you died in a way that made headlines, I know there are people in the news talking about your death right now,” and my mother scolding him for encouraging me to do bad things. It wouldn’t be that bad if I died, I mean I really miss a homely feeling my parents gave me, I miss the warmth of my mom’s hugs, I miss my father’s silly pranks. I keep seeing them as I close my eyes and it motivates me to swim even harder, fight the waves and the possible sharks I might encounter, be
[Fiona’s POV] Selby still stand frozen at the door, “it is not what it looks like,” I yell at her but that makes her look at me smugly. “You did take my advice,” she smugly says making Heath look at me curiously. “No, I didn’t it, he was just helping me with…...” I tried to explain, Selby wasn’t buying it though, she had rushed into the room before shutting the door behind her. “Okay, how did it start? Did you finally take my advice and F him?” Selby asks, Heath only chuckled before looking at me smugly. “She is the one who made you sleep with me?” he asked happily, peculiar usually when people find out that someone is with them because of a dare or because someone told them to do it, they would be angry. “No, I slept with you because I wanted to,” I defended but it only dug me a deeper hole than anticipated. “Then why discard me after?” Heath asks acting sad, “is it your shtick to use men for s*x?” I hated how amused h
[Third person POV] Heath had been on the edge since the whole Fiona falling overboard incident. One because there was no footage to show who pushed her in the water, two Carl had been acting very weird since. “What has gotten to you?” Gian asks, he had worried as he saw Heath keep staring into nothingness. “Oh, it is nothing,” Heath replies still looking deflated. “Don’t blame yourself, we will find who hurt her, besides if it's the Fiona, I know she probably will not blame you too much.” Gian reassures. “You speak so highly of her.” “Of course, she is like a sister I never had, and I know my wife wouldn’t be here and happy with me if it wasn’t for her, she is my family,” Gian says. “Can I ask you a question?” Heath asked nervously, Gian nodded his head yes. “Well, did you know she and Carl were a thing?” Gian nodded with more curiosity in his eyes now. “Well, I spoke to Carl last night and might have alluded to
[Third POV] Selby stood on the balcony looking at Lucas not knowing how to answer him, wondering who even told him this, she had only told Fiona about this, and Fiona hadn’t had any time alone with Lucas to tell him this, and she wouldn’t betray Selby at all. “Who told you that?” Selby says before bursting out in laughter, “come on Lucas this is just fun why break the rules we agreed on?” “But we didn’t really agree on any rules when this started, we just did,” Lucas reasoned. “So? We both know this was casual and we will keep it that way, right?” Selby defended; but the soon she finished her sentence tears started rolling off her cheeks. “Selly? Please be honest, are you in love with me?” Lucas asked firmly. “What if I was? What are you going to do about it? Lucas?” Selby calmly says with tears flowing nonstop, “nothing, you can do nothing about it but discard me, so stop asking questions you don’t the answer to.” “I will not
