OK THANK YOU TO THE ONLY PERSON WHO REVIEWED!!!!!! At least I know someone's reading the story. Well this is a short Chappie because it wasn't going to work out with what was going to happen next and I didn't want it to be so long. So here you go to the only person who actually read and reviews. I hope you like it aside from the grammar mistakes and all.

" Say would you like to see the bridge and meet the crew, it's the least I can do since you got a bad impression on your first day here." (A/N): bridge, pilothouse, all you need to know is that that is where the steering and controls are. I think.

"Sure that would be great."

"Great then let's go!" Captain Bangle led Jamie up two flights of stairs, went up a corridor and then opened a door to the left and walked in. Jamie followed him.

Two men were sitting in chairs that lined the front of the room next to the tiller, which was in the middle. Computer screens were set up in front of them.

A man at one computer with headphones on was jotting down notes. The other was typing on a keyboard.

"Swell view huh?" Captain Bangle walked to the tiller, pushed a button and took a hold of the tiller.

"The view is magnificent," Jamie breathed, "It makes me want to stay in here all day and look at the view."

"You can."

"Really, can I?" Jamie said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "If you want I don't have a problem with it, but make sure not to distract my crew too much from their work." Capt. Bangle said sternly. "Aye aye captain!" Jamie saluted him.

"Let's see there's Aaron the navigator over there by the computer. Nick is over there he's the communicator and handles the radio. (A/N:)Not sure about crews positions and all so don't hurt me. I really have no idea about that and the jobs that they do ssshhh...it's a secret, but this was the only bump in my story that I actually wasn't sure about. Oh well I tried now back to the story.

"Hhhhmmmm that's strange." "What?" "I seem to be missing my first mate. Aaron have you seen him yet?"

"No, sir I haven't, but you know his daily routine captain he's always late for work, he was probably off at the gym working out."

"I'm sure he'll be here soon." At that moment in came a young man rushing through the door. He fixed his hat straightened his jacket and saluted the captain. Capt. Bangle was not happy at all, putting the tiller back on autopilot. He looked disapprovingly at the young man and walked over to him.

"Your late Brian it's only the 2nd day we've been on this cruise and you haven't been on time for your shift, I hope you work on it, I don't want you to be late from now on understood. Aaron and Nick smirked.

"Yes, sir I will, but I ran into someone at the gym and forgot the time, I had to run to my cabin and shower before I came here," he said, not noticing Jamie standing quietly behind the captain.

"Well don't let it happen again. Oh yes I would like you to meet someone who will be in here with you three.

He stepped aside and said, "This is Jamie Parker." Brian nearly fell over because he was so embarrassed about being late.

"Hi Brian it's nice to see you again." Brian getting over his shock said hi to Jamie. Captain Bangle said that he must go direct the rest of the crew, and left the room leaving her alone with the three men.

"Ok well he said I shouldn't distract you guys since you're working, so I'm just going to go sit over there and read my book."

Nick, Aaron and Brian just stared at her. She sat down and opened her book and began reading. The guys looked at her out of curiosity, they had never actually had a girl in here while they worked. Captain Bangle never allowed it before because he said that women did not belong in the control room. It was not their place. They all looked at each other and went to work.

A couple a minutes later Aaron leaned over to Nick and whispered "Dude she's hot I'm going to ask her to the ball for tomorrow." "Hey, no I was going to ask her first,"Nick protested. "Not if I can help it,"Aaron said.

Of course Brian heard everything they said and tried not to burst out laughing because she was going with him. Aaron got up and casually walked over to Jamie and slipped the book out of her hands. Jamie looked like she was about to kill him.

He flashed his dazzling smile and said " Jamie would you do me the honor of going to the dance with me? I'm sure you would look beautiful in a dress." "NO, that's okay, but I would really mind if you gave me back my book." Aaron looked at her in utter disbelief. A girl before had never turned him down because he had always thought that he was charming and smart, all the women he met loved him, so what was the problem.

She took her book from him and was about to start reading when Nick came up behind Aaron and said" Hey, I'm a nice guy unlike Aaron here who can't give proper compliments to women, but that's not the point. For the ball tomorrow I was hoping you would go with me because well as you probably already know I'm a lot hotter and sexier than my brother Aaron here.

"Ummm... let me think about it Nick okay?" "Sure take your time baby because I know you won't say no to this."

"Oh, wait I think I can, no Nick I won't go to the dance with you because I already have a date and he doesn't use stupid pick up lines to get me to go out with him."

"What!" both of them said at once, "Who?" Brian who came over to them said "Hey what's up did I forget to mention that she was my date to the dance. Too bad I met her at the gym before you guys, now you wonder why I go to the gym?"

****************** I think they have rather big egos don't you think ladies? Aaron needs to get over himself. Nick needs help and Brian well I can't say anything about Brian just yet. Review if at all possible, I assure you it's not that hard.
