AN: I'm trying my hand at drabbles. I've never done one before. This will be a series of drabbles with movie titles from A to Z. Still working on my other projects, too.
Amistad
Amistad. In Spanish, it means "friendship." At least that's what the DVD case said.
But what was happening on that ship was anything but friendly.
Freddie tried his best to pay attention to the movie. He knew his history teacher expected him to come to class prepared to discuss the movie's portrayal of events compared to the historical record—basically, how Hollywood got it wrong.
But Freddie couldn't focus on the movie. He was too distracted by the beautiful brunette beside him. He studied her profile as she gazed at the screen. She turned from the screen and hid her face in his chest when the fighting got too bloody for her. He wrapped an arm around her and sighed.
Amistad. Friendship. Devotion. Obsession. Love.
Some words just weren't strong enough to describe what one person can feel for another.
