Hey, everyone! So, I know I haven't posted anything on here in a LONG time! And since then, I have become obsessed with Leonardo DiCaprio and I had inspiration to write a Titanic one-shot. I hope you don't mind and that you love it! -BubblePenguin

Heartbroken

Rose's POV
Heartbroken. This is how I feel now. The worst feeling in the world. The kind that makes you want to give everything up and just stop life as you know it. But then I remember those words of hope that my dear love said to me. He made me promise him that I would survive and continue on with my life. I loved him so much, too much, to break that promise. I told him that I'd never let go. Little did I know that those would be the last words I would ever say to him.

Now, here I am alone on the Carpathia watching as young children and their mothers frantically search for their fathers and husbands. My heart goes out to them because I know that the majority of the men they are looking for are dead. As I sit, freezing, and feeling more lonely than I have ever been in my life, I begin to think of the only man I've ever loved - the one who gave his life so that I could live.

I think of how he kept pursuing me and wouldn't give up no matter how many times I tried to get rid of him. I think of the day that we spent together walking around the ship talking about dreams and our lives. I think of him showing me all of his drawings that could never be topped by any famous artist. I think of when he taught me to spit like a man and how carefree I felt in that moment.

I think of the dinner we shared and how he impressed everyone at our table, except for my mother, of course. I think of the third class party below decks where we danced and I finally got to have fun in my life. I think of the way he looked at me when he told me how amazing I was. I think of that beautiful sunset when he and I were at the front of the ship and we kissed for the first time.

I think of when I asked him to draw me wearing only the heart of the ocean and how nerve-racking it was, and yet how strangely comfortable I felt around him. I think of us being chased by Lovejoy and running through the boiler room. I think of what we did in the Renault and how I'd never felt so in love with someone more than I was with him in that moment.

Now I start to tear up thinking about the ship hitting the iceberg, then Cal getting him arrested and me going back to save him. He stayed with me to the end and never gave up on me. This is the hope he gave me, the purpose I live for, the reason I'm alive here on the Carpathia. With the strength of his love to hold onto, I know that I can make it. Though I am heartbroken, I know I have to keep living for him and never, ever let go of the promise I made.

The End.
I would love some feedback from you guys, so feel free to leave a review and tell me what you thought!
