As she gets in the elevator she holds it for a family and their three kids. She smiled,she always loved childern and how innocent and naive they were. But they asked endless amount of question to their parents like why could we go see Micky mouse and did they have a pool here. Now,she may have loved kids but when they asked dumb questions she got alittle annoyed. After a few more moments it goes to her floor and she gets off and walked down the hall to her room. room 94,hm. She uses her room key as it beeps opens. She smiled at her rather small victory. Walking in her room she drops her bag on the queen size bed as unzips her smaller bag grabbing her hello kitty makeup bag. After about five minutes,she leaves the restroom before grabbing her roomkey and purse.
She walks on the pool deck waiting for the ship to cast off,she looks up and sees a few couples holding hands. She couldn't help but envious. She stopped looking and started wonder what the odds are of her knowing someone on the boat. Yea,that be inpossible all the people she know are either in South Korea or wouldn't step foot on a boat not after what happened to the titanic.She shakes the thought out of her head,the movie always terrified her. She fixes her light blue dress and looks into the crystal blue ocean.
She smiled and nodded, "thank you very much" she said as he picked them up. Her bags weren't very heavy, but it was always nice to have help. He led her to the reception desk where an older looking woman asked for her name. "Haley, Haley Dolan." She said. The man stood politely next to her, waiting to help bring her bags up to her room.
"Ah yes," the woman said looking up from her brand new computer, "here you are, Ms. Haley Dolan, king room, deck five, room 96. Enjoy your stay." The woman handed her a room key and a beige folder. The man motioned for her to follow and led her into a large elevator.
"Wow, an elevator on a cruise ship?" Haley asked as the doors closed behind them. How on Earth was this ship still afloat? Surely a boat this large would need to be filled with helium or something to keep from sinking.
The doors flew open and Haley followed the man out of the elevator. "A whole lot of physics I don't understand went into building this ship." He said and laughed. The hallways were much nicer, and wider, than Haley expected. "Ah, here we are." He said stopping outside a door about halfway down the hall. She opened the door and held it as he carried the bags in and put them in the center of the over sized room.
"Thank you so much." She said, handing him some money and smiling. He nodded, gave a quick goodbye, and left. Haley plopped down onto the bed and looked around the room. It was nice, really nice. She put her key in her pocket and made her way outside to see the rest of the ship and wait for the ship to cast off.
The ship was lovely and it wasn't hard for her to find the front desk. The receptionist asked for her name.
"Reagan Corbin."
The lady smiled and nodded before telling her room number and deck before handing her her keys. Reagan thanked her and eventually found her room. It was big! Already Reagan was feeling at ease. Deciding to go up on deck, she freshens up a bit before grabbing her small purse, camera, and room key. Immediately she heads for the pool and looks out over the railing out to the blue ocean and the port. She looked around at the people and saw different kinds of people from the singles like her to families with kids. Feeling inspired by the scenery, Reagan takes out her camera and starts taking pictures.

He waltzed up to the check in area with his bags in hand. "Kieran Fairchild," he said.
The woman glanced up at him and smiled. "One moment, please." She clacked away at her keyboard and looked up again, with that same freakish smile. "Ah yes. Here's your room key and room number." She handed him a piece of paper and the plastic roomkey as he thanked her.
He went up the elevator and down the hall in search of his room. He saw a few girls leaving their rooms, and finally found his. He dropped his stuff on the floor - including, but not limited to, his clothes/necessities and his tattoo supplies. He brought his tattoo supplies whenever he left town. You never know when you're going to get inspired. He wasn't entirely tattooed up. He had a rather large piece on his back, one on his forearms, both his wrists, and on his right hip. It wasn't like he had sleeves or anything and the only one he ever regretted was the name on his hip, which he had been meaning to get removed.
He shook his head. His past was never something he wanted to think about. Hell, it was the reason he was so fucked up to people. It was the reason he couldn't form a stable relationship, or sabotage the ones he did manage to create. No. People were much better from a distance. He grabbed his drawing pad and left the room. He didn't know where on the boat he would go, but it would be somewhere. Somewhere he could hide from his own thoughts.

"Name?"
"Nick Flynn," the receptionist handed him his keys and with a small thank you, he headed towards where he was told. "-- and don't even think about calling me to bail you out again. One time Nicholas, one time." Again, Nick chuckled as he caught the end of his mothers rant. He unlocked his room and threw his stuff in, not even bothering to look before closing it and heading upstairs. He'll deal with it later. "I said I'm sorry about that, Ma. It was an -- shit." Using his quick reflexes, Nick ducked behind some beach chairs as he saw a familiar face.
"It can't be her," he mumbled to himself as he peaked over, not even listening to his mother's scolding. Hoping, desperately that it was a dream, he looked over and swore again as he saw his ex, Reagan Corbin.

Jessica Eversteine tugged tighter at the opening of her warm leather jacket fighting the cold of the sea air that rushed through her light brown hair. Standing on the first level she watched with awe at the changing blues the sea reflected over the railings, resulting in the salty water splashing in her face making her wrinkle her nose in distrust before moving away.
It was only a mere two weeks previous that Jessica had been sat in her small apartment paint smudged on her cheek, it was then that she found a letter unlike her bills envelopes chucked through her door and it was strangely addressed to her. She never received letters. With a quick shrug of indifference she tore it open delicately to inspect the contents finding herself fairly surprised with delight. She had somehow won a free holiday to an island just off the coast called âSan Valentineâ, the name struck her as something odd, but she made no further interest in it but instead with a smile rebounded back to her room and began to plan what she would need to bring.
Holidays were a rare thing for Jessica, but the fact never changed that she loved to travel; she adored new excitement and experiencing new adventures, which was probably why she got into trouble a lot of the time. She had been reported missing twice in her life already just because she had gotten lost in some forest somewhere simply because she forgot the time. That wasnât a healthy record for a 19 year old to have.
With a sigh Jessica pulled herself away from the side of the boat her bags still sitting next to her feet, she should probably go and check her room, since getting on the boat, registering her name, she had kept her room keys in her hand, she still wasn't sure why she had recieved this free holiday but she paid it no notice anyway and began to wonder the decks as she slipped inside. Maybe she should have asked for directions..
He would definitely have to pay the receptionist another visit and get to the bottom of this phenomenon. But first, he really needed to change his clothes. He turned back to the bed and fished through his suitcase for a different outfit, settling for blue V-neck and a pair of blue plaid swim trunks. He shuffled off into the bathroom to change and took a second to fix his blonde hair, which was currently windblown and obscuring his vision. After changing he splashed some cold water on his face and went back to his bag to grab a pair of navy blue Ray-Bans. Ready for the sunny weather, he walked out the door with every intention of figuring out who the mystery luggage belonged to.
Jae, thoughts full of the mess he was, turned the wrong way and started walking towards the pool deck. He was in a hurry and didn't realize he was about to run into someone until it was too late. He bumped into the stranger and immediately apologized. "Oops, sorry...-" His sentence trailed off as he saw who it was. But it couldn't be, right? The shock rendered him speechless for a moment. "Sun...is that you?!"

Today things weren't going very well, and he actually decided to put his pencil down for a while. But naturally, right as he did that, he ran into a girl. A girl who was strikingly similar to someone he had avoided for a long while, a person he shouldn't have run into here. His ex girlfriend. His jaw dropped.
"You have got to be shitting me," He said.
But,it was better than looking a the one guy that hurt her more than the ring. "I-" She didn't know what to say,it has been so long since she spoken to him. "Jae,um wha-what are you doing here?" She looked at her feet at her new wedges,trying her hardest not to let her eyes connect with his so she would become speechless more than she already was,like she used to. Why are you so nervous,you idiot?! He broke your heart,so why should I feel like this. He's the one who should feel like this,not you! She mentally slaped herself before she put a piece of hair behind her perced ear.
"Um and if you don't mind,i'm not really comfortable about you calling me Sun anymore,....so call you please just call me Sunye for now on?" She couldn't do it anymore,her wide hazel eyes connected with his for about three neverending seconds just before she looked at the ocean and then to the main lobby looking for away to just get away from him and to her room.
After a long while, Haley decided to head back to her room. It took a little searching, but eventually she got there and swung the door open. Her bags sat right in the middle of the room where she had left them. "Eh, I'll deal with those later" she said as she walked past her bags to fall back onto the bed. It was unbelievable comfortable. Big too. Probably made for couples on vacation. she thought, then smiled, more room for me.
She was just starting to doze off when her phone rang. "Meg!" She said excitedly as she answered it, "this place is amazing!" Haley talked with her friend for a while before making up an excuse to hang up. She decided to explore the ship, taking random turns here and there.

If it was possible, she was even more beautiful than the last time he saw her; more matured and ... curvy. Not that she wasn't before, but now... Nick had to shake his head and cover his eyes to stop his eyes from watching her butt as she walked away.
"Nicholas, is everything okay?" Nick lifted the phone to his ear and let out a small sigh as his eyes wandered back to his ex leaving.
"I don't know Mom, I don't know."
"I'm fine Ma," Nick rubbed a hand over his face before pushing himself up. "I just saw someone I haven't seen in a while." His mother was silent on the other line which made Nick get a little nervous. He stopped walking and was about to call out to his mom, when she said something that made his blood run cold. "Is it a Corbin?" Nick stayed silent, but mother instincts told Silvia she was right. "Is it Reagan?"
"Mom," I broke Silvia's heart to hear Nick's strained tone. She knew he really liked that girl, but he never told her what went wrong. She heard around that he broke up with her, but Silvia didn't want to believe it. Why would her son break up with the girl Silvia was convinced he'd marry? It made no sense to her. "Can we just drop it?" Silvia sighed, but Nick could practically see her nodding. "Alright. I'm going to go lay down, love you Nicholas."
"Love you too Ma," Nick said before ending the call and shoving his phone deep down in his pocket. "Maybe I was dreaming," he mumbled as he approached the bar. He knew that he was dreaming, but thinking that made him feel a bit better. "Scotch on the rocks please."
Pushing the button she could feel moments of her and came come back to her. Like when he would surprise her and the wide smile she had in her face before giving him a quick kiss on his lips and a sweet hug. When she was with him,she feel head over heels for him in a short period of time but she didn't care. Once getting off at her level,she walked to her door. She stopped right as she was about to open it and shook her head. "You're over him,Sun. You've been over him." She exhaled and opened the door. Once walking in she saw a bag on the queen size bed. She walked over to it reading the name tag,her eyes went wide and her face turned pale like she saw a ghost. "Jae? No,...no this can't be happening!" She poked the bag with one of her glitter painted nails.Sunye couldn't take it,she unzipped it seeing male clothing,a few pieces of clothing she remembered from the past. She put it all back away and zipped it back up before grabbing the bag by it's strap and could feel how heavy it was,at least to her. She tossed it to the carpet and didn't know what to do.She didn't know rather to go find Jae and see if he knew what was going on or to act like she never saw it......It was a pretty eay choice. she chose neither,she exhalded and started to think of what to do.
So she decided to do neither,she pulled out her sleek red phone and pushed number two,Jae's number. She typed a quick text before pushing send. Jae,We need to talk. Can you come to room 94 please?,SunyeShe looked at the text after sending it and forgot to take off the signature of all the text she sent which was,Sun loves You <3 God,she meant to change that signature and now who knew what Jae was going to think of that. She turned red at the thought.
She sat down on the bed with her legs crossed waiting for the knock on the door. Boy,was she in a surprise.
((Hey People,you guys can keep writing. Don't let this die young!))
Inside there were people bustling around in all directions, little kids screaming and men in uniforms helping people find things. The invitation had come at exactly the right time. The guys had just returned form their first tour and they were taking some downtime. After about two weeks of nothing, Grey was starting to get pretty bored, a cruise was just what he needed.
"Greyson Devlin." He said as he walked up to the desk. The woman sitting behind the desk forced a smile, it looked like she'd had a pretty rough day. He made sure to really thank her before walking away. Judging by how few people there were waiting outside, he assumed the boat would be casting off soon. As he walked down the hallway he read off the numbers out loud until he reached 96. Swinging the door open wide, Greyson walked in. It was a big room, with an even bigger bed.
A few feet into the room Greyson tripped over something and landed flat on his face. His feet were lost among a pile of luggage. Someone else's luggage. There weren't tags anywhere on it. How had this stuff gotten here? It didn't matter, he would deal with it later. After being up late packing last night, all Greyson wanted to do was sleep. He leaped onto the bed, lying sideways across it on top of the covers. It didn't take long for him to doze off.
Haley's eyes widened as she saw a large sign that read 'buffet'. The door was wide open and she could smell the freshly cooked food within. She hadn't realized just how hungry she was until she saw another cart full of food roll past into the room.
"Well are you just gonna stand there, or are you going to go in?" A girl said in a strong English accent. Haley turned to see the tall blonde girl to her right. Where had she come from, and how long had she been standing there? It didn't really matter, she was entirely right.
"Uh, yeah, I'm going in." Haley said. She hoped she didn't sound too surprised to see the girl. The girl smiled as she walked in and Haley followed. The room was enormous, with endless tables filled with endless amounts of food. The girl disappeared quickly, loading a plate with food and walking out. After eating a few random bits of food, Haley decided to go back to her room.
After some fumbling unlocking the door, she walked on it, closing it behind her.
He opened the bathroom door just a crack and peaked through, but all he could see was the reflection of brown hair in a mirror. The humming started to get louder as the intruder moved towards the bathroom, apparently unaware of his presence. He backed up away from the door as it swung open. In the darkness of the bathroom Grey couldn't make out any of the girl's features. She flicked on the light and screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Please" Grey said, gently putting his hand over her mouth, "don't scream." Why was she screaming? She had broken into his room. As his eyes slowly adjusted to the bright light, the girls features slowly came into view.
"Haley?" he said looking down into her soft brown eyes. It couldn't be. It wasn't possible. This girl, who had known him better than he knew himself. This girl who he had left behind. The last thing he expected was to run into her on a cruise.
((Don't worry, me and Dea talked this over before hand))
When she bumped into the table while taking her leave, Jae covered his mouth to suppress his laughter. She was cute whenever she was embarrassed. He stood there in the same spot after she left for a moment. What had he gone to do in the first place? Oh yeah, figure out who left their luggage in his room. He'd almost completely forgotten about that. Seeing her had that effect on him, and now he was starting to worry. 'That was all in the past, there's no sense in thinking about it now.' He thought resolutely, but somewhere in the back of his mind, he knew Sunye would be in his thoughts again. His phone vibrated in his pocket and startled him back into reality. He looked at the screen and was utterly surprised to see a message from Sunye. She still had his number? It shocked him, but he never erased hers either. The first thing he noticed was the signature at the end of the text and another rush of memories distracted him again. "Get it together idiot." He said it under his breath but that didn't stop people walking around him looking at Jae like he was crazy.
Wait. She wanted to talk? And how did she know what room he was staying in? Slowly he began to realize what that meant. The luggage in his room, it belonged to her.The initial shock left him glued to his spot, but then he started jogging back to his room. The entire time he was feeling anxious. Was she going to think he'd stalked her and purposely booked the same room or something? He stood outside the door, took a breath, and entered his room. "Y-you're here, I mean, this is your room too?!" He held up his room key with the room number on it. For a second he glanced over at his bag, which had been tossed on the floor, and felt a pang of hurt. "This has to be some sort of mix up, we can just go to the front desk and clear this up." The funny thing was, deep down, in a very small corner, he was sort of hoping they wouldn't be able to switch rooms.
She swallowed the knot in her throat before speaking softly. "Um,y-yea. That has to be it because I would never try to get the same room as you......Not that any girl wouldn't want to share a room with you it's just that I haven't seen you in awhile and I not really ok with sharing a room with anyone. You know? She looked down at her feet and exhaled. "gaejasig-a" She said it under her breath before walking towards him and grabbed the key softly out of his hand,not wanting to be rude. She looked at the nmber and saw it was the smae number as the room. She could feel her face turn a bit pale before handing it back to him. She exhaled and grabbed her key,forgetting all about her ring and her purse. She walked past Jae hitting his shoulder softly,she could have swore that she felt a very small,very faint tingle once they connected. She walked out the door and down the narrow hallway not even seeing how far Jae was from her. she didn't need him to come with her anyway,she could deal with it on her own but even through she would never say it out loud,he did know how to deal with a problem better than she did.
She walk down the hallway and could help it,she looked back at Jae and stopped once they hit the elevator. She pushed the button and looked at him. She knew not talking wouldn' help anything,besides she liked talking to him for some reason and seeing him again was like seeing an old friend.She cleared her throat and messed with her nimble finger nails,watching her silver nail polish chip off. "So,how have you been? I mean how are things with your girlfriend and school and all that." Anyone could hear how hard it was for her to say the dreaded word,girlfriend. she never had to ask him that seeing she was his girlfriend,but that was the past and if to make things less awkward between them meant talking about his gorgous girlfriend and beond fabulous life,then so be it. she couldn't help but feel jelous of his life,he had everything she dreamed of. Parents who loved him,a sister who adored him,and as far as she knew a girlfriend who was a hell a lot prettier than she ever could be, At least how she saw it. Honestly she knew Jae didn't care about her,she knew that or if he did then he wouldn't have left her the way he did. she wasn't looking for a wedding purposal or anything,just someone who gave her the love and care he parents took away from her.
