Sinkable Love
The wind felt good in my hair as I gazed at the people down from the railing. The blow horn echoed through the morning. I waved to the unknown people below as my father gave my hand a slight squeeze.
"Your dream came true dad; you now have your own ship." I beamed at the exuberant Charlie.
"This is the best day of my life," He brushed a tear away from his face. His smile was so large; the skin on his cheekbones were stretched to the max, "Of course the day you and Emmett were born was also the best days of my life, but this is the one so far." He stammered as I giggled.
"It's ok, dad, I'm happy for you, and I know." My brother had his arm snaked around his fiancée, Rosalie Hale. To her left was her twin brother Jasper. A sudden pixie girl tapped me in the back, crawling up my shirt and snapping my bra to my skin. I squealed and nearly was propelled off the edge.
I glared at the girl who just assaulted me. She seemed to be at ease, smiling angelically. "Hi, you must be Isabella Swan. I'm Alice Cullen, nice to meet you. Mr. Swan or Captain Swan, whatever you like to be called, good to see you."
"Bella is fine, don't do that again please." She laughed, creating sound pulses that were as pure as a silver bell.
"I won't. You should meet my brother, Edward." She whipped her head around, "Weird, he isn't around." She frowned. "My parents aren't here either. They must be at the rooms." I nodded in acknowledgement.
E POV
I walked to Alice's room, grumbling, "What the hell? I can't believe Alice bribed me again. I'll kill her later." I slapped the suitcases onto her bed. She was sharing a room with Jasper Hale. I needed him now. He was my best guy friend, but I was angry with him for not doing this for his girlfriend. They were my neighbors. Unfortunately, they were quite loud at night, and they don't snore.
"Hey Edward, how is it going?" My dad, Carlisle peeked through the door.
"Not good," I cracked my back, flexing, "Do you think mom can…?" I trailed off.
"Not now, I need Esme to do it to me too." He grinned. "She left me too, so she owes me. You'll have to find a way to get her to do it though. You know how she is."
"She wants me to get a girl." I rolled my eyes. "I can't fall in love that quickly."
"True, well leave it there. I don't think Alice will be happy if you unpack her things for her. Good luck…. And remember, she only wants you to be happy." Carlisle chuckled as he abandoned me.
I knew he was thinking of his new duty as one of the medical staff, just in case. People always have been easy for me to read. You say I'm the odd one, wait until you see Alice. Sometimes it's like she knows things beforehand.
The loud blows of the horns were ear shattering. The ship suddenly shifted, and I knew we were taking off. Peering through the window, I saw hundreds of people waving at us. I gazed in awe until the pier was no more.
I sighed, strolling to the deck. I dodged what seemed to be hundreds of people. The deck however was so empty; I guessed that everyone was unpacking except this one girl. The wind was blowing toward me. I inhaled the aroma of strawberry and freesias. Her mahogany hair seem to glow in the sunlight.
B POV
I spread my hands out, mimicking the person in the Titanic movie. The hyacinth sea was beneath me. If only I had a Jack with me let alone the infamous Leonardo Decaprio. I loved romance stories and the movie was to my liking. The end of it was sad, but it was still an enthralling film. I loved the fact that they adored each other so much that they abandoned a precious jewel to the freezing waters. I cried every time I watched it.
Sighing, I carefully watched myself; have two left feet. I smiled at the sea, lucky; I didn't inherit my mom's gene of seasickness. My dad designed the ship to be almost the exact interior of the Titanic, seeming to keep me in mind. The only difference was that it was a little bit more modern with all the new technology. That fact comforted me- modern meant that it wouldn't sink. Hopefully.
The precautions of my father, he ordered more lifeboats, in case we crash. This was a cruise to England and it was middle in summer. It wasn't like those family cruises where people were all crazy about the pool on the deck or anything that big.
My father named it Breaking Dawn. He hoped that it would split the sea in half like the rays of the sun. I liked it. The name had meaning.
I was ecstatic when he invited Emmett and me. Of course, Emmett had Rosalie come. Rosalie loved her brother Jasper dearly, so she had him tag along too. Alice would have never allowed Jasper to come without her. Both the Hales and the Cullens were offered to come to dinner. I inhaled the sweet scent of the salty air, my eyes squinting to the bright sun.
"Hello." A man's voice surprised me. I spun around as I stared into a pair of endless emerald green eyes.
My legs became weak and tangled and I teetered near the edge. I felt unexpected tears coming as I realized with icy terror that I was leaning way over the side. Suddenly, two long pale arms reached and grabbed my left arm, towing me back to the safety of the ship. I lay trembling in his arms. "Are you mad? You almost fell over!"
"I-I-I-," I was quivering too much to talk. After a few minutes, I tried out my voice. "Um, Thank you." I peeked to get a better look at my savior.
He was gorgeous. Auburn hair and shimmering green eyes where his key points. His angular nose was perfect, and his square jaw was astonishingly handsome. I felt his muscular chest under my palms as my cheeks flared up.
"You're very welcome." He gave me a breathtaking crooked smile.
E POV
She was beyond beautiful. Her chocolate eyes were huge as she studied me. Her skin was silky and alabaster white. Her full pink lips were invitingly tempting. Her cheeks suddenly became scarlet as she looked away. Her luscious hair fell to her shoulders and I got a good whiff of her delicious scent. I let her go even though my heart told me to hold her longer.
"My name is Bella Swan…. My father Charlie calls me Isabella behind my back."
"Edward Cullen," I took her hand and kissed the back of it. "The pleasure is all mine, Miss Swan." Her lovely blush became even more pronounced.
"Edward! Bella!" Ugh. Leave it to Alice to ruin the moment. "Oh, did you two already meet?" Her face was confused. She was looking forward to introduce us. This time, I actually hoped that she was planning another blind date. The only problem is that the blindfold over the date has already been pulled off.
"Yeah we did. How did you know we were here Alice?" Bella walked over to my elder sister.
"I felt an urge to come here as quickly as I could. Then for some odd reason, I felt a wave of sadness wash over me. Now I know why." Bella looked more perplexed as she said this.
"Alice is like a psychic, always setting me up on mindless blind dates." I rolled my eyes. I paused, hoping that I wasn't being too forward. "Come to think of it, would you like to accompany me to dinner?" I wanted to learn more about her. Bella wasn't like other girls. I felt it in my bones.
"I would love to," She answered without hesitation. My heart soared.
B POV
"Bells!" Oh boy, my personal teddy bear Emmett came storming down the deck. I loved him, but I was his baby sis. Therefore he was also my bodyguard. "Oh, hey Alice, I'm Emmett, her big brother. And you are…?" He gestured to Edward..
"Edward Cullen, Alice is my sister. I'm taking Bella to dinner, do you mind?" Edward was a straightforward guy, I noticed with amusement.
"Bella," He said calmly, "Did you agree to this?"
"Yes, I did." I replied. I was worried with Emmett's next move. I swear if he punched Edward…
Emmett was taking deep breaths. "Very good Emmett." Rose popped up literally from thin air. "Let her go, she's not a little girl anymore. She's twenty years old." She soothed him by rubbing his well-built arm.
"I'm twenty-one." Edward shot me another uneven smile. I think I stopped breathing.
"Breathe Bella." Emmett reminded me. Emmett's hands were balled into fists. Blood rushed to my face as Edward chuckled. Rosalie was whispering something to his ear. Emmett was suddenly gauging his decisions. "Okay, well, I'll tell dad for you. Be careful…." He turned away and stalked off. It took me a while to realize my mouth was on the floor.
"What did you do?" I gasped at Rose. She shrugged and sent me a naughty grin. "Maybe I don't want to know." She nodded.
"Smart choice." She commented, hiding a laugh.
"Bella, come on, I need to get you ready for dinner. Rose, you come too!" Alice was jumping up and down so quickly; it was nearly a blur.
"Should I be frightened?" I squeaked silently to Edward. The expression on Alice's face was indescribable.
"Terrified," Edward said curtly. I realized that he was staring at me, looking up to meet his gaze. The knuckles of his hand brushed lightly from my chin to my temple, leaving a trail of fire in its wake.
"C'mon." Alice's voice was masked with a speck of annoyance. She dragged me with Rosalie casually roaming next to us. "So I was thinking of you wearing blue because well, you seem to be the blue type of girl. I'm sure Edward would approve. Don't you think Rose? Wait don't answer, that we'll see." Alice babbled on, but I heard nothing.
All I could think about was the man I was going to dinner with.
Edward Cullen.

OK, so there. Review and tell me if its good or bad. I felt like I needed to do a quote from Breaking Dawn. Well, it's pretty close. I hope you enjoy this and if you don't then help me a little by PM-ing me or reviewing me. I need a few suggestions, so save me a little pain by saying a few options. Thanks and hope you like it. D
