Sorry that it is a bit short but just deal with it for now please. For future reference, Saturdays are the busiest days of the week for me so I won't post up very long chapters but maybe medium sized ones depending at what time I get home. As usual... may have spelling/grammar errors and PLEASE REVIEW!

I felt myself laying down on something cold and hard which was the exact opposite of what my bed felt like. Yawning and stretching at the same time, I turned around and ended up bumping into something that was too rough to be my wall. Wondering what I had bumped into, I opened one eye and then another and immediately sat up in shock.
Oh… my… god… PLEASE don't tell me what I think it is!
I looked around and my fears were confirmed. That dream I had was not a dream at all. It. Really. Happened. Being led by true fear, I hurriedly stood up and walked around as quietly as I could, not wanting to be caught by any of the sailors on the ship. How disgraceful it would be to be caught as a stowaway!
I jumped into the air when I heard a few people yelling at each other close by. For a second, I had thought they had discovered me but thanked the gods above when I was wrong.
"Emmett Cullen! You better not have lied about this! I swear that if you were lying, you-"
"Rosie, please! I really wasn't kidding when I said that I saw a stowaway!"
I thought I felt my heart skip a beat.
Dang! I thought I picked the perfect place to hide from the ship's crew. I guess I was wrong.
"Rose, let me handle my dear friend, Emmett!" yelled a woman.
"Alice! Don't do something you will regret soon," said a calm voice.
"I'll be calm as soon as I toss Emmett into the ocean! He had deprived me of some much needed sleep!"
"Whoa, Alice! You know that you don't really want to do that! Think of Rose over here."
"Don't drag me into this, Emmett! Even you know that a mad Alice is unstoppable once she has a target!"
Soon, there was yelling and screaming among them and I sought it as a chance to find a better place to hide. Carefully placing one foot in front of the other, I tiptoed towards the door that led below deck.
I don't even want to know what's down there but it beats nothing at all I guess.
My luck seemed to have run out then and there. Just as I decided to quicken my pace a bit, I tripped over my own two feet and landed face flat on the wooden deck.
"Ow!" I squeaked but immediately covered my mouth when I realized that the people a few feet behind me could hear it. I grew so nervous during the long silence that I became a little restless.
"Did you hear that?" a guy whispered, "I told you that I was serious when I saw a stowaway. But nooo you just had to doubt me and threaten- OW! Alice! What was that for? And why is everyone hitting me today?!"
"Sheesh, Emmett. Don't get your nerves worked up into a bunch! That was for getting sarcastic on me and Rose. How else do you think we should react to someone who had poured vinegar into my famous beef stew?!"
"Or for the time you had purposely hid my necklace thinking that it was Alice's!" whispered a woman in a shouting tone, "I had torn the house apart looking for it! Besides, YOU were the one who had given it to me! How could you forget that?!"
"Hey… um… shouldn't everyone just calm down for a minute? You do know that while we are pointlessly arguing with each other, that stowaway is getting away as we speak?"
"THAT REMINDS ME, EMMETT! WHAT IS SO GREAT ABOUT A STOWAWAY THAT MAKES YOU THINK I WILL BE HAPPY ABOUT IT?!" a woman shouted not even bothering to whisper anymore.
"Alice…"
"QUIET, JASPER! I HAD ONLY GOTTEN ABOUT FOUR HOURS OF SLEEP BEFORE GETTING TOSSED AWAKE BY THIS BUFFOON RIGHT HERE! I NEED MY SLEEP YOU KNOW!"
I laughed nervously to myself. It seems that out of everyone on this ship, I wouldn't want to be caught by the girl who was shouting right now especially since she got such little sleep. Maybe I should get out of here while I still can…
Walking backwards with my face looking towards the very furious looking people, I made sure to make as little noice as possible. I froze when I bumped my head into something that didn't appear to be any one of those crates on the ship. I rubbed the back of my head with my hand but soon stopped when something grasped my wrist. Being in denial as to what had happened, I tried walking forward but with no such luck. I felt something come close to my ear before whispering: "I wouldn't move if I were you especially since you have been caught, my little stowaway."
The voice sounded like velvet and caused me to shiver. My eyes widened at my realization.
Drats! I was caught! This is definitely not going to be good.

I was grasping the wrist of the fragile girl not knowing whether I should be angry at the fact that she was a stowaway or be in awe at her beauty. This woman was a goddess compared to all the other beautiful ladies in the world. Her frame was tiny and only came up to my shoulder but wasn't as short as Alice. Long brown hair was cascading down her back and I could tell that she was terrified at the inevitable judging the way her deep brown eyes widened at the sound of my voice. She wore no makeup which brought out her beauty even more and was wearing a very ragged green dress that seemed to have been torn. I instantly wondered why someone as radiant as her was doing on my ship.
Before lust could take over my mind, I called out two of my most trusted crew members and told them to lock her in Alice's room for the mean time. I shook my head trying to rid myself of thoughts I had never even thought of in my entire life. Why was a stowaway like her having such an effect on me?
I sighed and headed towards my very "loving family" who were at each other's throats trying to kill one another. I was a little shocked at the fact that Jasper had trouble holding Alice back from murdering Emmett. That little pixie had a lot of strength.
"Let go, Jasper!" Alice exclaimed, "I have to kill Emmett! Rose...! Why aren't you helping me?!"
Rose brushed her blonde hair over her shoulder before standing right in front of Alice.
"Sorry, Alice. But no one, not even my best friend, can murder Emmett. Jasper, help me out a little please!"
I stepped in before the dispute could go out any further. We had enough in our hands as it is.
"Alice," I said placing a hand on her shoulder, "You need some rest. Take Rosalie with you and go to Rosalie's room and take a nap while me, Emmett, and Jasper take care of the... stowaway."
I spit out the last word since that wasn't something we should call someone as angelic as that woman. Not noticing the way I spoke the last word, they marched off into Rosalie's room as everyone else including me headed to the room where the only person that has ever made my heart tug was waiting.
What do you think? Once again I apologize that the latest chapters are a bit short but don't blame me because I had so much homework and tests this week. XD
