Chapter 1; All calm before the storm


Marie's POV

It was June 22, 2013 meaning as of today, I was finally 18 years old. The year where I was an adult, made my choice at free will. For my birthday this year, I promise my best friend Samantha. A.K.A Sam to throw it for me, since she begged me the last time. She planned the party to be a yacht party, she did this because she knew how much I actually loved the water.

Me and her invited some people who we thought would make the party fun or we close with them. It was five people including me and her so basically three other people. We also brung along the one friend who had his boating licence and he agreed to drive the yacht. We lived on the Carribean islands and decided to travel across seas to the islands near Thailand. We were heading near Rook Island. Same found a pamphlet that showed the beautiful island and it was the main place to have vacation. I loved the idea of celebrating my birthday on an island.

When we arrived there, the next day our party began. For my birthday outfit, I wore black bra with a cream cross netted top, jean shorts, and sandals. Sam helped me pick the outfit for me. When the party began the boat was at least 50 ft away from Rook Island. It cast perfectly as a setting. On the boat we were on the deck dancing and laughing. Me and Sam were grinding against each other to the music. Me and her felt like we were still in highschool giggling like little girls.

"So how you like your 18th birthday!" Sam yelled over the music.

" I love it!" I yelled back giggling like a little school girl.

The song changed to ' I don't care ( I love it) ' and it was exactly the perfect mood for this party. I sang along to the song with Same and soon one of our close friend Josh walked to us with two shot glasses in each hand.

"Hey you two relax before it gets too heated." he teased

"Oh shut up, you're just jealous because it's not us grinding on you!" I giggled.

"Pff! You wish you were grinding on me." Josh winked.

I rolled my eyes playfully and laughed again.

"Birthday shots, for the birthday girl!" Josh shouted over the crowd

The small crowd whoo-ed and cheered. Yes, I know I was under age , actually we were all kinda were. We just graduated highschool, me and Sam been underage drinking since were 16. We never drank till we passed out or ended up in the hospital, but just enough for us have that 'little' buzz going. Me and Same took our shots of liquor that had us enough to be tipsy and get our words slurring at bit. As of that happening to us.

Nothing could change this moment.


It was already night and the party died down. It had to be around 2 a.m. Everyone was inside of the boat, I could hear the music still blasting inside to those songs you listen to when you were high. I was still outside with Sam and were giggling about what took place today.

"So? How you like it?" she asked me for 3rd time this night.

"Once again, I loved it. Best night of my life!" I cheered

"See? And you said you didn't want one. You owe me." she teased as she playfully pushed me.

"I got you." I said smiling.

"remember when I took you to your first party?" she asked.

"I got so drunk." I said laughing. " But I'm kinda tipsy now."

"Me too, but I'm good to drive. Trust me." she giggled.

"Whatever." I said rolling my eyes laughing.

I looked over at the island which wasn't the far now from us. We got closer because we might get off this boat soon. I inhaled deeply to the smell of the fresh waters.

"I can't believe you found this place." I said.

"I know right, Rafael recommended it to us. " she said.

"Well I gotta thank him when I get inside." I said.

I felt a rain drop hit my nose and I touched my nose to fell the drop.

"I feel rain drops." I said.

"Me too." Sam said as she felt her arm.

"Do you think it's gonna be bad. " I said looking up at the sky.

"Well you wanna go inside before it starts raining harder and messing up your hair." she said.

" Yeah." I said leaning off the edge and heading to the side of the boat where there was a door. We walked inside people sitting down or talking. I walked over to Rafael.

"Hey thanks for recommending the island." I said.

"No problem." he said giving me a side hug.

"By the way it looks like it gonna rain. Is it safe to be out here?" I said concerned.

"We'll be fine, just- " the boat cut us off shifting to the left a bit.

"Whoa," I said grabbing onto the wall for support to stand up straight. " I think we should do to land."

"Yeah we should." Rafael said dashing for the door.

As he opened the door water came crashing through making him fall backwards and pushing him back. Josh ran to the door and tried to close it, but it was no use. More water was pouring in.

"We gotta get out of here now!" Josh yelled over the pouring water.

Every dogged over the water trying not to get trampled with the pouring water. As er were trying to push out, I caught myself on the ledge. I looked up to see what seemed so perfect and beautiful was just complete disaster. Soon the yacht rocked again where it just fell on its side. Causing everyone to fall into the water. I was under water for a bit and I swam up again gasping for air. All I could was screams and waves crashing. I tried my best to get my head afloat and swimming to land, but when I got closer a wave hit me again causing me to be knocked out unconscious.
