Author's note: Can you believe were already at the sinking? I know I can't! But after the sinking is where the real story starts. This chapter is dedicated to Jenny. She has supported me ever since I started this story on a long bus ride. Were both eccentric people so the bus driver didn't pull over when we were jumping up and down with excitement at the idea of writing such a story. I know that I promised her to put a part in for her. She has always had this dream to be the one to yell "iceberg!" Well, Jenny this is for you.

IN THE CROW'S NEST

"I can't believe I took this job" a girl groaned. She was with two other men and they weren't making her job as supervisor any easier.

"Then why'd you take it Jenny?" one of the men asked.

"I won't tell you why. But I'll tell you I wouldn't have if I knew it's be this dang cold" the girl named Jenny replied coldly.

"Sorry, honey but I don't think any of would have taken this job if we knew it would be this cold" the other one said in a thick Irish accent.

"Hey, by the way buddy did you get those dang binoculars from those girls" Jenny asked lighting a cigarette on the wood.

"No," the man admitted. "They said that they dropped it over the edge when they were trying to find their friend in the crowd."

"I don't know where you got it into your head to let those girls borrow them" Jenny muttered.

"It won't matter if we have them or not. Jimmy here says he can smell icebergs" the Irish man said.

"Oh, and that's supposed to settle my nerves? I don't know where you learned how to smell icebergs boy, but it better work. This whole ship is counting on one man's sense of smell" Jenny yelled. Suddenly, she heard laughter beneath them. She looked over the edge to see a happy couple falling over in laughter.

"Look at them. My oh my, if I wasn't working on this ship that's be me down there" Jimmy said. "Well, you are in fact, need I remind you working on this ship! And on your salary there is no way any girl would fall for you" Jenny barked.

Suddenly something caught her eye. She moved closer to edge of the basket at the looming figure just below the horizon. The men followed her gaze.

"Is that what I think it is" the Irish man whispered.

"You bet your britches it is" Jenny cried.

"Iceberg!" Jenny yelled pointing dead ahead at the white figure that was closing in quickly.

"Get on the phone now!" she barked to Jimmy.

"Pick up, pick up" she muttered under her breath. The Irish man began to ring the bell.

"I'm going down to them" Jenny yelled as he began to shimmy down the pole that the crow's nest was connected to. She landed perfectly and began to run as soon as her feet hit the ground. The ship was not going to sink if she could help it. She ran into the steering room.

"Iceberg! Turn right!" she screamed. The steering man turned it as soon as she finished screaming.

"Grab the phone and say to have the boilers stopped! Tell them to reverse the propellers!" the steering man barked. Jenny did as she was told then raced outside. The iceberg was close. Too close for comfort!

"Turn, come on turn" Why aren't they turning!" Jenny muttered under her breath. Finally they started to turn.

She could hear her employees cheering from the crow's nest. But something could be heard over the cheering. Jenny stopped.

"God this can't be happening" she whispered. But sure enough the sound was of the iceberg scratching the hull…

ABBY'S P.O.V

"Did you see those guy's faces?" Jack laughed as we made our way back up to the deck. We were in a huge laughing fit. I knew then it was now or never. I had to tell him. I put a finger to his lips to silence him.

'When the ship docks, I'm getting off with you" I whispered softly.

"This is crazy" Jack smiled.

"I know! I was always told not to follow my heart because it would lead me down the wrong path. But now I know." I laughed.

"Know what?"

"That there are happily ever afters" I replied softly.

Jack pulled me in for a kiss, but stopped. I heard it too. The sound of cracking wood. We turned. There was the biggest piece of ice I had ever seen. We watched as it slid past us in shock. Then the sound came again. I said the only thing that came to my mind.

"That's no ice cube."

Soon the iceberg drifted away and disappeared from sight, but I knew the damage was already done. There was no stopping it now. The Titanic was going to sink and people were going to die. So, much for rewriting history…

R/r This chapter was originally much longer, but I decided to break it up so you can expect to have the next chapter by tonight!
