Alex's POV
"Now sweetie, you're sure you still want to do this? Stay here, on this boat and go to school?" mom asked
"Who wouldn't?" I said with enthusiasm
My mom laughed and kissed the top of my head.
"Make sure you're safe okay? And if you ever want to come back home, all you have to do is call. Okay?"
"I promise. I love you" I told her. This was the first time I was ever going to be away from home for more than a few days. But, my mom and dad were strong and they wanted me to go on adventures, and just have fun.
"I love you too honey."
"Make sure you tell dad I said goodbye."
Dad was off on some business trip. He left yesterday. I wish he was here to see me. I would be seeing them again until they visited in six months. Wow.
"Bye mom." I said. I watched her walk off the sky deck and down the pier. I waved one last time but I don't think she saw me. A tear slipped out of my eye.
'No crying' I told myself. 'There are people here. We do not cry in front of people."
I had already been to my cabin with my mother. This is where my many bags were staying. I wasn't sharing a room with anyone thank goodness. There wouldn't be space for the two of us!
I set my purse down on a table and laid on a lounge chair. I wanted to relax for a couple of minutes. I needed some time to myself
Cody's POV
"Zack, I'm not writing your report on Ancient Greece for you. You need to learn to do SOMETHING on your own for a change." I told my ignorance twin brother.
"Please? I didn't pay attention to anything Ms. Tuttwiller was saying" of course he wasn't.
"Surprise, surprise." I said sarcastically. "And besides, I have a dinner date with Bailey tonight. I don't have time to do anything else."
"Uuuggghhh!" he groaned as he blended an assortment of many fruits into a blender.
He poured the obliterated liquid into a cup and handed it to me. In return, I handed him three dollars. Overpriced, if you asked me.
"Hey guys." Bailey said as she took a seat next to me, and placed her hand in mine, as she always did.
"Hey Bailey." Zack, woody and Marcus all said casually
"Hey sweet thang." I said with a smile. She giggled. I simply stared at her. She was the most beautiful girl to ever walk this planet. And if we ever do discover life on other planets as well as ours, she'd be more beautiful than them too.
"So, i was talking to Ms. Tuttwiller and there's a new girl on the ship! She's going to be attending Seven Seas High!" she sounded thrilled.
I turned to Zack who was fully focused on Bailey, now that she had spoken the word 'girl.'
"Oh really? How exciting! A new member of the student body, willing to put forth the effort of learning and traveling the seven seas. A new student to share the knowledge of-" I started.
"Yeah yeah yeah. What does she look like?" Zack cut me off.
"Is she pretty? I could use a pretty lady." Marcus said. I rolled my eyes.
"I'm not sure. All I know is there's a new girl on board." Bailey told him
"Maybe, she's an alien dressed as a girl and she's here to research human behavior so her kind can take over the earth!" woody said, frightened.
We all rolled our eyes at that one.
"Well," Zack said, giving a strange look to woody. "While you four scope out the sky deck for our new little mystery, I have to use the little boys room." he said, waddling towards the restroom.
I shook my head. He was clueless.
Alex's POV
I spotted a boy as he made his way to the restroom. He was about my age, I guessed. He had long-ish, dirty blonde hair and he was probably taller than I was. He had on a bright green top and khaki pants with a blue apron in the front for collecting money. His uniform. He worked at the juice bar.
I didn't see much of him, but from what I DID see, he was cute.
I walked over to the edge of the boat and looked out at the city. We were still docked near Palm Coast, Florida and would leave soon. My home was in Jacksonville. It's about an hour and a half from here. My mother was on her way back home. I was missing her and dad already.
I looked across the beach, at the large buildings in the city, at the other boats in the water, at all the people, even at the sky. Everything just seemed so beautiful. To me, it always had.
My mom said I saw the world differently than everyone else. She told me I only saw the beautiful, happy things. I knew she was right and she said it was a good thing. But sometimes, I see sad things and it overwhelms me when I realize how sad things can be.
I don't know why this happens. It just does.
I have learned to accept the bad things while still only truly focusing on the good. That's the way I like it. I like to stay positive.
I walked over to my chair. While I walked, I noticed a young couple holding hands sitting at the juice bar. These kids were my age as well. I also saw two other boys there as well. Again, they were my age. I wanted to introduce myself. I didn't want to be alone on the enormous ship.
I grabbed my purse, slung it over my shoulder and headed towards them.
"Hello." I said.
They all turned around at the same time.
"Hi!" said the girl. She seemed very excited to meet me. I'm sure she knew I was going to be attending school here.
"I'm Bailey Pickett and this is my boyfriend Cody."
"Pleasure to meet you." he smiled and stuck out his hand. I shook it.
"And this is Marcus." she pointed to a dark skinned boy "and this is woody" she pointed to the other, very light skinned boy with A LOT of hair.
"I'm Alexis Summers. But, I prefer Alex."
"Nice to meet you Alex." Bailey said with a wide grin.
"Hey Alex" Marcus said
"You're not an alien, are you?" woody said with wide eyes. Did he act this way all the time? I sure hoped not...
I noticed them looking at my outfit. I suppose it was hard not to.
I was wearing my dark purple 'fairy' skirt made with layered fabric which gave it that extra 'poof'. It had a black elastic waist band and black lining. I had on my black 'i heart rock and roll' sleeve less top. Various rhinestones outlined all of the small words which were all different shades of purple, some of which matched the color of my skirt. I was also wearing my fingerless, black and white striped gloves that came up to about my elbow. My boots rose to just below my knee. They were platform and came up about three inches off the ground. My accessories that day were a black head back with a bow on the side and my silver necklace with a small heart charm on it. To top it all off i held my favorite purse. It was merely a clutch with a firm handle, but I classified it as a purse. It was black and had a white skull with cross bones on the back. The skull had a purple bow on the top of it so it made it 'girly' instead of 'scary'.
By looking at me, you might assume I'm more 'dark' and hate the color pink. But that's not the case. I wear pretty much every type of clothing. I like to change up my style every day.
I admit, my clothes were a little 'out there.' but, that's how I like it. I wanted to stand out and be more than average.
"I like your outfit." Bailey said
"thanks." I replied. I liked getting compliments about it. That meant I was doing it right.
"Were did you get it?"
"I didn't." I said simply. I saw the confused expression on their faces
"What do you mean?" Cody asked
"I made it."
"You MADE this outfit?" Bailey exclaimed
"Yes. I make most of my clothing."
"That's incredible!" She said. I looked over at Cody, who was staring at me with his mouth wide open.
"Is he okay?" I asked, laughing a bit
"I'm fine. That's just such a complicated outfit. It must have taken you weeks to sew." he said
"No. Just two or three days."
"Amazing!"
"Thank you"
"So I'm guessing your more the Goth type, right?" Bailey asked me.
"No. I change my style a lot. Today I look more rock and roll Goth and tomorrow I might look more fancy. Or I could be a girly girl or wear something exotic. Anything really." I'm very particular about my clothing.
"I like it." she said
"Thanks." I smiled.
"You truly are very talented." Cody told me.
"Yeah. With all the cool things and what not. It's eye popping. In a good way of course." marcus said
"You guys are to kind. It means a lot. Thank you." my smile widened.
"Hey guys. What's...whoa." the juice boy I saw earlier came back from the restroom.
He looked at me as he said 'whoa' and I wasn't entirely sure if that was a good thing or bad.
hope you like! i'll update as soon as possiable!
