Sinking Hearts
Chapter 1
"Bobby," Linda rushed in the restaurant with 17 year old Louise and 18 year old Gene behind her. Gene in his normal blue shorts and yellow t-shirt. Louise in black jeans and a green tee.
Teddy was at the counter, eating a burger with Bob behind the counter in front of him.
"What?" Bob asked.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"Guess!"
"Lin, I'm not going to guess, just tell me."
"Mom said guess!" Gene yelled.
"Gene, shut up!"
"Ok well anyways, I won us five tickets on the Seaic," Linda told him.
"Yeah, mom won them on the radio, she was the 101st caller on the Michela radio show," Gene said.
"What? What's that Seaic?" Bob asked.
"On the Seaic is a large cruise ship," Teddy answered.
"Yeah," Louise said as she and Gene sat in a booth.
"Lin, why would you get them? You know how I feel about ships. Remember what happened with that crazy captain."
"Bobby, we need a vacation and it was free plus this cruise is safe."
"She's right. The Seaic is the safest ship ever made, unsinkable," Teddy said.
"An unsinkable ship that sounds like another ship that sunk its first time on the water."
"Yeah, the Micotic," Gene said.
"No Gene, the titanic, you know that," Bob corrected him.
"No! It's the Micotic!"
"Gene, that's not a real ship."
"Yes it! You don't know!"
"You don't know!"
"No you!"
"Gene, shut up!"
"Wow that was rude. I'm hurt dad, so hurt."
"Gene!"
"Dad!"
"Both of you stop it!" Linda snapped.
"If Dad's not going I'm not it sounds dumb," Louise said.
"We're all going!"
Both Bob and Louise groaned.
"I don't care! Now go pack, the boat leaves tomorrow at 3."
"Wait 3? In the morning?!" Louise raised her voice, surprised.
"Yes."
"So I have to wake up at 3 in the morning?"
"No at 1, I said it leaves at 3, so we have to wake up at 1 and we'll get there at 2 and have time to check out the boat before it sets off."
"Fuck!"
"Watch your language Missy and pack nice clothes, it's a fancy cruise."
"Yeah, the tickets are crazy expensive, almost all the people going are rich," Teddy said finishing his cheese burger and paying his bill. "Well I have to fix a roof, have fun on the cruise guys." He waved and left.
"Lin, please no one wants to go," Bob said.
"I do, Bobby."
"I don't." Louise jumped in.
"Gene?" Linda asked.
"I want to."
"See! Bob this is once in a lifetime experience."
Bob groaned.
"Ugh fine."
"Yay! Now let's go pack."
"Fine, just help me close up."
After ten minutes of closing up, they locked the restaurant and went upstairs.
Bob went in his room to pack, Gene his, Louise complaining to her room, and Linda called Tina, who was now 21 at Eiden University which was two hours away from the house.
"Hey Sweetie," Linda said into the phone.
"Hi mom," Tina said.
"I need you to drive as fast as you can and come home."
"What?! Is everything ok?!"
"Oh yeah, we're fine. We just got tickets for the Seaic cruise!" She cheered the last part.
"What?! Really?!"
"Yeah, I won them on the radio. Can you make it?"
"I guess, I did finish all my classes and exams for the rest of the month. I can get there by midnight if I leave now, since it's only 10."
"Great and pack dresses, fancy clothes."
"Okay, bye mom, love you."
"Love you too my tiny Tina," Linda ended the call, then went into Louise's room which was Tina's old room. "Hey sweetie," she said closing the door behind her.
"Mom," Louise said.
"Are you that mad?"
She tuck up her pinkie finger, which was her way of flicking her off.
"Ok Missy well, maybe you'll have fun, like it'll sink and for some reason you'll laugh."
"Its unsinkable mom. I don't want to go."
"Louise you're going on the family vacation, so let's pack."
Linda opened the black suitcase on her bed, and walked over to her closet.
After Tina moved out, Louise painted the walls dark purple and re-decorated.
Linda picked out every dress Louise had and put them in the suitcase. She had only five so she would only need one suitcase. Linda packed all her stuff as Louise laid on her bed playing games on her phone.
"Oh and no phones," Linda took her phone. "Its family time not phone time."
"Noo!" Louise screamed.
"Oh calm down. Now get some sleep."
"Ugh!"
"Goodnight sweetie," she turned off the light.
"Ugh!"
Linda closed the door and went into her bedroom Bob was already asleep. She spent twenty minutes packing her fancy clothes, then went to bed at 11.
xXxXx
Linda woke up to Tina calling her. It was 12:52 a.m.
"Hello?" she answered sleepily.
"I'm home," Tina walked in her room, smiling.
"Oh, Tina hi sweetie. Go in the living room and let mommy sleep."
"Umm ok."
"Good girl."
Tina left and Linda went back to sleep.
xXxXx
"Wake up!" Wake up, we're late, its 2:54!" Linda yelled. "Let's go!"
They all rushed to the car, throwing their suitcases in the trunk.
"We have five minutes!" Tina said.
"Bob, go!" Linda yelled and they quickly drove to the boat docks.
"How did this happen?" Louise asked rolling her eyes.
"I over slept," Linda answered.
"Ha!"
"Shut up!"
They arrived at the docks and hoped out the car.
"Come on its 2:57!" Linda yelled.
They grabbed their suitcases and ran.
"Wait! Wait! We're coming!" They all yelled.
The ship was getting ready to leave.
They ran through the giant crowd of people waving goodbye to their friends and family. Linda was the first one up the railing to the boat.
"Wait! We have tickets!" she said to the black haired man in a suit at the ship door. She pulled out the tickets and handed them to him. Linda was in a long black dress that she slept in. Tina in a short navy blue sweater dress. Bob in his pajamas, Gene too. And Louise in the same clothes from yesterday.
The guy checked the tickets nodding as he looked at each one. "Okay, you guys got any diseases?"
"No, clean as can be," Linda smiled.
Gene started picking his nose and the man made a disgusted face.
"Just go," he said.
They joyfully got on and gasped at the beautiful ship.
"Wow…" Gene said.
There was a glass chandelier that shined on them.
"This is amazing," Tina smiled.
"It's okay," Louise groaned.
"Don't be a party pooper, not let's put our stuff in our room. Our room is in… the basement what?" Linda said confused.
"We're with the lower class?" Bob asked.
"Ha!" Louise said.
"We are lower class," Tina said.
"Yeah, no doubt about that, but we won these, you'd think we'd at least get middle class."
"Well, I'm going to put my stuff in the room then never see you guys until this shit is over," Louise said. "What room?"
"G24," Linda answered.
"Ok, bye!" Louise walked off.
"Oh I wanna go!" Gene cheered running after her.
"Guess it's just us three," Linda said to Bob and Tina.
Louise and Gene ran to their room, putting their suitcases away. In their room was four bunk bed inside a closet size room with a bucket as the toilet and a small circular window. Louise changed into a pale dress that stopped midway to her ankles, and wore matching color flat shoes. She wore a pink necklace with bunny ears on them. Her old ears got too small for her, so to protect them she put them in a black shoe box on the floor in her closet. The necklace was away to hold on to her childhood ears that Bob got her when she told them about her small non-fitting ears. Her hair was free to be seen down in curls, her hair stopped at her armpits. She was too old for her pigtails when she turned eleven, then she tried a single ponytail, but didn't like that, so she wore it down.
Gene changed into the outfit he packed. It was a brown shirt that looked dirty and tan pants and black shoes with black suspenders.
"Ready?" Louise asked.
They were going to run around the deck, playing tag and daring each other to jump off the boat, but backing out at last minute.
"Yep," Gene answered.
Linda, Bob, and Tina came just as they left.
Louise and Gene were running on the deck. Louise running from Gene, who had a bugger on his right index finger, trying to put it on her.
"Gene stop! That's gross!" she laughed.
As she was looking back as she ran, she bumped into someone, making her fall.
"Oh sorry," she said.
Louise looked up and saw a familiar blonde face.
"Oh, I'm so sorry," he reached out his hand and helped her up.
"No, it was my fault."
"Do I know you?" He asked.
"I don't think so." It didn't look like he recognized her, guess without her ears she'll look like a completely different person. She knew him though.
Logan Bush, that mean, annoying older kid who stole her ears, made her cry, hurt Gene, and messed with the restaurant, smiling at her like she wasn't the same Louise.
"Logan!" Cynthia, who was in a big fluffy yellow dress with a large ugly yellow hat with ribbon shaped like flowers, hissed. She had a peach paper fan in her right hand." Let's go!"
There was Tom in a black suit next to her and three women. One in dark green dress and hat similar to Cynthia, another in purple, and one in light orange. The one in purple walked up to them and wrapped her arms around his left arm.
"Honey, come on, my daddy will be mad if we're late," She wined.
'Honey?!' Louise thought. She hasn't seen him since she was ten, but till… This was a surprise.
"Charlotte, sweetie wait a second," he said calmly.
"Honey bear."
His face turned pink a little at the name, and Louise almost laughed.
"Logan! Let's go!" Cynthia hissed again.
Logan huffed.
"I'm sorry again, I have to go," he said to Louise.
He looked at her like she was an angel, like a prefect good girl. This wasn't the Logan she remembered. Everything was different expect his look. He was kinder, a little better looking if she was just saying, his smile was a good smile not evil I'm going to kill or hurt you and you'll need a doctor smile. But his eyes, they were different. Not the color, they were the same blue-ish grey, but the soul in them. Back then he had a light, like a firework shine in them. That evil star that showed in the prefect moment, that's one thing that they both couldn't deny they had in common, but now it's gone. No star, no light at all, it was a dark emptiness. Hopeless.
'Is he okay?' she thought.
"Bye Miss," he smiled.
"Bye," Louise came back to reality and said goodbye.
Gene went back to chasing Louise, but he was getting tired.
"All this breathing is making me hungry,"
Gene complained, and Louise laughed as she stopped running and started walking.
Logan watched as she walked from him.
He actually knew it was Louise, realized when he saw Gene and put two together. She looked even prettier than before. He did miss her ears, but she looked like an adult.
"Logan, is everything okay? Did that trash hurt you?" Charlotte asked.
"No! Charlotte I'm fine."
"Ok, I just hope you didn't get dirty."
"Charlotte, shut up!"
"Logan!" Cynthia snapped.
"Ugh what?"
"Stop it!"
He rolled his eyes.
They all walked into the fancy upper call dining room. They went up to a able with three people already there. A man with two women, all in nice fancy clothes. Charlotte sat down next to the man, who was her father Sullivan Clarkson. Logan next to her, shaking hands with her father before sitting down.
Cynthia next to Logan and Tom to her. The lady in dark green was named Aubrey Livingston next to Tom. The woman in orange named Dodie Bennett next to Aubrey. The two women, one in a light blue fluffy dress named Estelle Cunningham next to Sullivan and the other in light pink named Rosemary Cunningham next to Estelle.
"How is my angel?" Sullivan asked his daughter.
"I'm amazing daddy, Logan and I are planning the prefect wedding ever, thanks for paying for it daddy," Charlotte smiled.
"Anything for my princess."
"Mr. Clarkson, I can't wait for our families to become one," Cynthia gave a fake friendly smile.
"How many times have I told you? Call me Sully, we're family."
Cynthia giggled.
"Yes yes, Sully."
"Prefect," he smiled.
Logan stared out the window, looking at the beautiful Atlantic Ocean water, shining from the sun.
He was unhappy. To sum up the seven years, his family was losing money since Tom made a mistake while treating a patient which caused him to die and now no one trust him, so the family was getting poorer and poorer, and Cynthia refused to work. So Cynthia changed the bad boy skateboarder into a fancy gentleman, so he could find a nice rich lady and that's where Charlotte came in. Her father was loaded. She was using her and yeah that sounds awful, but it was his evil mother all he had to do was marry Charlotte and waste his life with her. He couldn't get out of this even if he tried, he needs his parents as much as they need him. Logan was trapped. He hated all of this, Logan wasn't one of those wealthy people who didn't care for this money importance and fame of a last name. He lost his friends, Scotty and Jacob, because of this shit, so he was stuck with Charlotte's douchebag brothers. The two, Clarence and Clifford are horrible.
Logan sighed sadly.
He missed his old like, but he forgets his problems by drinking. Seeing Louise reminded him of his fun life.
"Logan are you okay?" Charlotte asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine," he answered, lying.
"He's prefect," Cynthia fake smiled.
Logan did the same lying smile.
Charlotte kissed his cheek, smiling.
She had no idea about this, she loves him, walking blindly into Cynthia's money take trap.
They ate and laughed with Logan still missing his freedom.
He sighed again
xXxXx
After the breakfast, they spent the rest of the day talking about how much money they have, Cynthia faking numbers, and about the Seaic.
It became dark and they said their goodbyes and went to their rooms.
Logan and Charlotte went to their private suite.
"Wasn't that fun, honey?" Charlotte asked as she sat down on the king size bed, taking off her gold earrings.
"Guess," he answered, shrugging untying his tie.
"My father loves you."
"And I love you."
"Aww, I love you too, sugar cakes. Do you want to, you know?"
"Sex? No! Don't want to break that rule, you can wait until we're married."
"Oh," she sighed.
"Let's stay clean."
"Okay."
"Can't believe you'd think of that."
"I'm sorry."
"I need a drink."
"You just had five total today."
"And?"
"Honey, you're been acting weird since that thing bumped into you."
"Thing?"
"What else do I call her?"
"A person."
She laughed.
"Poor people aren't even people," she smiled.
He huffed, he could have another meaningless fight with her, but he already has one with her every day and they already had their fight before getting on the ship. Yeah, a fight at 2 a.m., they did, that's their relationship.
"I need some air," he said.
"There's air here."
"I need some fresh non-smoke from fiancé air, gosh," He raised his voice and left.
The second he slammed the suit door, she pulled out a cigarette and lit it.
"Ugh," she sighed.
xXxXx
Logan went to the back deck. The cool wind hitting his face. The beautiful night sky shined on the ocean. As he went up the steps to the deck, very few people were out and about. They were probably asleep or loving their wives.
Once he got up the stairs he noticed someone sitting on the metal balcony bar. He looked closer and realized it was Louise.
xXxXx
The End of Chapter 1.
a/n: I decided to write this because I've just been interested in the Titanic and my love for Bob's Burgers Louigan, I thought if they were in the Titanic and how it would look, so I'm writing this Fanfiction. And just because I'm writing this doesn't mean I'm done with I'd Give Everything for This. I may try and post this story once a week. And this story is Louigan as Jack and Rose of the Titanic, but I'm adding my own style and twist to it, there will be the Titanic conflicts and my own to make this Louigan and not just the Titanic with different names. Thank you for reading this, I hope you liked. Please Review.
