Chapter Three

My nose hurt.

I touched it. I was bleeding. This was so not cool. My lip stung. Ouch.

I rolled over, noticing that someone's knees were under mine. Immediately I looked up and saw that I had ran into a famous model from the Hylian Modeling Company.

Oh, goddesses...why do you hate me so?

I quickly jumped to my feet and dusted off my knees. "I'm...so sorry. I didn't see you...I didn't mean to knock you down." I offered my hand to the woman before me but she slapped my hand away.

"You digust me. You're so indecent. Watch where you're going!" She fiercely said as she came to her feet. "You inconsiderate being."

Oh, yeah. So I'm a digusting, inconsiderate, "indecent" being. According to her, I'm not even a woman. Who the hell did SHE think she was. If only I could give her a piece of my mind. Ohhh, I oughta...

But instead, being the genius I am, I said

"Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Zelda Harkinian. I don't think I've ever seen you before. Are you new to this whole rich-people shindig?" I said, trying to make small-talk. She was my age, I could tell. But she seemed so...so much more sophisticated than I was.

"Excuse me?" was all she could say as she arched an eyebrow at me.

"Hey...You've got a cut on your nose. We should go see the doctor." I said, gentley taking her arm. Not like I knew where the hell I was going, anyway.

She slapped my arm away. "Don't touch me," she said. "Where is the doctor?"

I wish I could have told her. Right then I felt completely helpless and, my nose hurt. A lot. Oh, my lip did too.

This trip was getting worse and worse by the minute.

"I don't know.." was all I could conjour up to say. "But maybe we can go look for him together...Actually, I have some bandaids and disinfectant in my room and we can use tha--"

"I will not use such products on my delicate face! Especially those from you."

Ouch. I felt burned. I was getting a little ticked with this girl...but, I guess I should try as hard as I can to make friends with her. I mean, she's the only girl I've talked to all day besides Marin. The girl barely had a scratch on her nose.

"Okay, then, I'll accompany you and we'll look for the doctor together...what's your name again?"

"It's Malon Taydal." She said curtly as we walked side by side in silence. I had heard that name before...Taydal...It's familiar. Why, though? I mean, yeah, she's a famous model but...there's definitely more to the story than that. There has to be.

Well, I'd gotten her to tell me her name, this was great. I made my first friend. Except, she kinda hated me right now...but that was okay.

I reached into my purse and pulled out Kleenex and dried the blood from my lip and nose. I offered her one but she declined, commenting that there was more germs on the Kleenex than that already had entered her cut. I retorted that I had just opened the case but she didn't seem to want to argue over the fact of who was wrong or not.

I wish I knew where I was going. My sense of direction absolutely sucks.

Malon and I continued to make our way down the halls until we made our way to the deck. 'This was good', I thought. The closer we were to the deck, the closer we would be to people and we could find the doctor.

Why we were doing this? I have no clue. I think Malon has a bloody finger. I didn't get a chance to see.

After about ten minutes of searching and gaining valuable knowledge where everything was located on the boat, Malon and I found the doctors office.

And, though I couldn't see his face, the nurses were squawking that the doctor is a drop dead sexy HUNK.

Maybe this trip wasn't going to be that bad after all, like Lianus had said.

Oh, but my lip and nose were still killing me. Malon pretty much hated me and I was completely lost on this big ship.

It couldn't get any better than this.

Not.

Review, please :) Next chapter should be up sometime this weekend! (Jan 28th-29th) I'm going on a vacation to California from February 10th to the 17th. I'll be bringing my labtop but the chances of internet are small, depending on where we're staying. I'll work on the story while I'm out, so don't worry about lack of updates because they'll come full throttle when I get back!

REVIEW! NOW!

Love,
