Ok. This is it. I finally did it! My very own and very first Fanfic! (first of many I hope) Please try to enjoy it. I personally give this chapter a six at best. I know it's short, but I just want to see how it goes first...if all's well, then the chapters will be longer, I garuntee that. If not then...well, I'll probablly start over. My writing skills are like zero so...yeah.
Anyway, enjoy! (she said hopefully) :D
Chapter 1:
Washed Up
I sat in my room with my head in my hands. A mixture of sadness, nervousness, and a microscopic feeling of excitement were all jumbling around in my stomach. All I could hear was the gentle waves that rocked the ship, It was about 5:30 in the morning. All I could think about was the horrible chain of events that had happened in the last 24 hours I had been in that Goddess – forsaken city. But that was all in the past now. It would get a lot better now...I hoped.
I had gotten on the boat at about 4:30 this morning and at about 5:00 am., it had set sail. I was on the way to my new life in Forget-Me-Not Valley. To pass time, not that I had a choice, I thought back to this morning.
I packed my things angrily and headed towards the door, throwing the diamond ring on the floor directly in front of him. "Chelsea, dear you know you don't want to do this!", he pleaded. "You know I love you! Just...just put your bags away and -"
"And what Will?", I spat while angrily wiping away my tears. ''What could you possibly offer me that could fix this? You told me the last time this happened it would never EVER happen again! I should've known better. Lily can't stand to lie, especially to me! Me, her best friend! I shoul've seen this coming...I should've known..." My tears were now trailing down my face like a river. He was silent for a minute before he spoke again, "How could you of figured it out so easily...?" , THAT was my absolute breaking point. Why would someone ask you that – especially if that someone is your soon-to-be ex-boyfriend who you happened to be engaged to?
"Will, Lily is – was my best friend. I could read her like a book for goddess' sake! And that is exactly why I wonder why I couldn't see this coming...again!" Will turned and looked at me sorrowfully. "Chelsea, please! Just one more chance! We can finally start our lives and start a family! We can live as we've always dreamed...together." He reached for my hand and I angrily jerked it away. Was he serious? After cheating on me twice with my best friend – my best friend! "Will, I don't think so. You think just because you are a prince that I will come crawling back to you again? No. Not anymore. I just thank the goddess that she saved me from making the biggest mistake of my life." With that I grabbed my rucksack, picked up my suitcase, and opened the door of the three-story mansion. "Goodbye, Will.",I threw my things in the taxi that awaited me and I was on my way to the docks.
Trying to push the thoughts away, I lay on the small twin bed and drifted off to sleep. Hopefully by the time I awoke I would be at my destination. My new home.
My new life.
