21st Century Titanic Chapter 4: Magic

"Who on earth are you!" Cal shrieked. "Wait a minute, I remember you two."

Cal looked at Christina then Johnny.

"You're the troublemakers I met on deck. Why on earth would you come barging in my room!"

"Your room?" Johnny asked. "We were given a key to this room. It's our room."

"Yeah! John-- I mean Jack's right. This is our room so—

"Oops," Dark's voice interrupted her. "Hey guys this is his room. Remember how you gave me the key you got from the officer? Well, I used that key instead of the one I stole. I forgot I had two keys, so this other key," Dark said as he reached into his pocket, "must be ours."

"Your right," Christina whispered. "What excuse can we give as to why we went in his room?"

"Don't worry. I've got you covered," Dark replied.

Suddenly, Dark transformed into Daisuke.

"I'm sorry mister," Daisuke said to Cal, "but I thought this was my room. You see, Mr. Sparrow and Ms. Winslet were kind enough to help me because I'm lost, and I told them that this is my room. I guess I'm wrong because you obviously aren't my father. Now, if you'll be so kind as to let us go on our merry way and search for my parents."

Cal just sat there then finally stood up and walked towards them.

"Wasn't there another gentleman with you?" Cal asked. "He had purple hair."

"Another guy?" Johnny said. "No, besides who do we know with purple hair? Who does anyone know with purple hair?"

"I guess you're right. After all, purple hair does sound absurd. I suppose you can leave, but next time don't barge in my room."

"Next time?" Christina replied. "What makes you think there will be a next time?"

Cal started blushing, and Rose appeared just in time to see it. Rose didn't think it was possible for the man to blush, but there he was doing it.

"I…uh…didn't mean it like that. I just meant…well…"

"It's okay Mr. Hockley. I think I understand what you mean," Christina replied.

Then they left.


Johnny, Christina, and Dark were settled into there new room, which was gorgeous. It looked like an upscale hotel room. Christina was lying on the bed, and Dark and Johnny were slouching on a couch. Dark suddenly got up and laid on the bed next to Christina.

"What are you doing?" Christina asked.

"I'm going to bed."

"Not with me lying here."

"What's the big deal?"

"Actually, you can just stay here. This whole Titanic thing has been kinda hard to take in. I'm gonna take a walk out on deck to clear my mind."

"Do you want me to come with you?" Johnny asked.

"No thanks."

Out on deck, Christina felt relaxed. She had been walking around for awhile and had reached the end of the ship when Christina noticed a woman standing on the opposite side of the railing. She looked like she was going to jump! Christina quickly ran over to her. As she got closer, she realized it was Rose, Cal's fiancé.

"Don't do it!" she yelled.

Rose turned around surprised.

"Look, just go away," Rose said.

"Are you crazy? I can't just leave you here to kill yourself."

"I'll do it anyways."

"I don't think you will."

"How would you know? You don't even know me."

"I know your name is Rose."

"How-?"

"We met remember? Your fiancé's name is Cal."

"Oh…forgive me, but I don't remember your name."

"It's Christina. Look, you don't want to do this. Trust me, I would know. One of my good friends and I used to go to Montauk beach in New York all the time during the winter. We went during the winter because there are less people, so it gave us a chance to unwind. Anyways, one snowy, freezing day, my friend jokingly dared me to jump in the icy water for twenty dollars. Well, for some insane reason I did it and that water was beyond freezing. There isn't a big enough word in the dictionary to describe how cold it was. I got the twenty dollars, but having pneumonia for two weeks is not worth twenty dollars."

"What does this have to do with me?"

"Well, that water you're about to jump into is just as cold or even colder than Montauk, so if you want to endure a slow, painful, and freezing death, go ahead jump"

Rose just stared into the ocean, thinking. Finally, she turned around and faced Christina, tears filling her eyes. Christina let out a sigh of relief as Rose slowly climbed over the railing. She landed on the deck with a thud.

"Thank you," said Rose.

Christina barely knew Rose, but she gave her a big hug. Once of those hugs you give to your girlfriend after her boyfriend just dumped her. Rose just started crying. They were both surprised to hear a voice.

"Are you two okay?" a man asked.

They both turned around to see a very attractive man, probably in his early twenties, who was tall and had sandy brown hair.

"We're fine," Rose said while wiping away tears. The man didn't look too convinced.

"She," Christina said, pointing to Rose, "almost fell over the railing, but I was able to save her. She's still shaken up a bit."

The man nodded slowly and then said, "It's a good thing you saved her; otherwise, I would've had to jump in there after her."

Rose smiled nervously.

"I'm Jack Dawson by the way." He extended his hand out to Christina and she shook it.

"I'm Christina Aguilera."

It was a simple gesture; people shake each other's hands all the time when they first meet, but with Jack it was different. The moment Christina touched his hand, it was like…magic.

"I'm Rose Dewittbukater," said Rose, breaking Christina out of her trance.

Christina continued to stare at Jack. She had never believed in love at first sight. She felt it was something left for movies and storybook romances, but the moment she met Jack, she believed in it. Christina felt like she was floating on air.
