Later the same day James had woken up for his next shift. He let out a yawn and stretched his arms and smiled when he thought about Flick.

He had a bath and changed into his uniform and placed his cap ontop of his head. And proceeded to leave his little cabin and join Charles Lightoller and Henry Wilde who he would be on watch with.

He arrived at the bridge and shook both gentlemen's hands.

"Afternoon Charles,afternoon Henry" James smiled cheerfully.

"Well aren't you chipper this afternoon James?" Charles smirked at the young lad.

"I am as a matter of fact" James exclaimed happily.

"Well come on spill!" Henry smirked. He always enjoyed teasing naive James.

"There's a girl i like" James stated blushing.

"Oh nice one James. What's her name?" Charles asked.

"Flick" James stated.

"How odd, Will has been talking about a girl with the same name" Henry remarked.

"It's the same girl" James said glum. "Me and Will like the same girl".

"Oh" was Henry's response. "What a predicament" he then said.

"Yep. And i know Will will probably get her heart"James said glum.

"How do you feel about her?" Charles asked wanting to help James but he was not going to take sides because James and Will were both his friends.

"I like her a lot. I enjoy her company" James stated. "We like the same books".

"Well that's a good start. Maybe you could arrange to meet her in the library?" Henry suggested.

"We already went to the library. I left her there earlier to get some sleep" James stated.

"Well i can't take sides James. All i can say it do your best to make her see you are the right one for her and go from there. And i'm going to give Will the same advice" Charles said.

"I understand and thanks guys" James smiled. "And i would never expect either of you to take sides".

Meanwhile

Flick was still in the library and decided she had better be heading back to her room to get ready for her dinner with Will and tell her mum how things went with James.

She put the book back on the shelf and left the library and walked back to her mum's room and knocked on the door and went in,where her mum answered.

"Well i did what you told me mum i spent some time with James". Flick stated.

Rachel smiled "And how was it?" she asked her daughter.

"He's really nice mum but there wasnt anything there,you know. No spark. I can see him being my best friend but romantically,nope. I want to date Will and see how things go from there" Flick answered.

"I understand sweetheart aslong as you have thought things over and you are sure Will is the one you want. He is a lot older than you and will want different things like marriage and children" Rachel said.

"He is mum and maybe i want the same things,i am 25. I plan to kiss him at dinner" Flick said excited.

"Well we better make you up then,he won't be able to resist you!" Rachel exclaimed excited as they walked next door to Flick's room and picked out a dress for her to wear. Flick chose a yellow dress which was bright,a pair of matching yellow shoes and Rachel did her hair up in a bun and applied some makeup.

Rachel admired her daughter "Beautiful".

"Thanks mum" Flick smiled,she then looked at the clock,it was almost time. This time she didn't feel as nervous.

There was then a knock so Flick went to the door and answered. To her surprise it wasn't Will but James."Hey James,what are you doing here?".Flick asked surprised.

He looked her up and down admiring how beautiful she was. Rachel smirked watching him. He has the hots for my daughter no doubt about it. Rachel said in her head.

"I just thought i'd come and say hi. You look beautiful by the way. Are you going anywhere nice?" he asked stepping inside.

"I'm waiting for Will actually,we're going to dinner" Flick stated happily.

James's happy mood went down "Oh,i didn't know. I can go and come back tomorrow if you'd like?".He suggested trying to hide his disappointment.

"Yeah maybe that would be best" Flick said hoping to not have upset him.

"OK" he replied feeling as if she was brushing him off and trying to let him down gently. "Well i'll see you tomorrow and maybe we could go to the library?".

"That sounds nice James" she smiled as he left the room.

"I'll come by in the morning. Good evening to you both" James tipped his cap at them both.

"Night James" Flick and Rachel both said as he saw himself out and closed the door behind him.

"FLICK! OMG! He's totally into you" Rachel exclaimed at her daughter.

"I told you i don't see him that way. I like Will." Flick retorted.

"Well you need to be honest and tell him so he doesn't go on believing he has a chance with you. You're being unfair by stringing him along" Rachel said,her face serious.

"I know mum" Flick said.

There was then another knock on the door "This should be Will" Said Flick excited.

Flick walked over to the door and sure enough it was Will dressed in his sexy uniform and wearing his greatcoat over the top.

"Hey Will!" She said kissing his cheek making him blush.

"Evening to both of you ladies" He said smiling.

"Have fun both of you!" Rachel exclaimed.

Will and Flick said bye to her mum and walked arm in arm to the restaurant where they both sat down. They both ordered the roast beef and potatoes and orange juice.

They both ate the meal in silence and once they finished Will spoke up " I have something to tell you Flick".

Flick smiled and said "What's that Will?".

Will was feeling shy but he needed to confess to her especially as he knew James was also interested in her "I think i am falling in love you".

Flick smiled but said nothing instead she leant across and met his lips in a passionate kiss. Her lips felt warm against his and it felt perfect. This was their special moment.

Flick then broke their kiss and said "I think i have fallen in love with you too Will".

His face lit up when she said it and he then said "Are you sure? Please don't feel pressured into saying it if you're not sure. I know James likes you and you have spent time with him today".

"How did you find it out?" Flick asked.

"Charles told me" Will answered "I'm not cross or anything. You have the right to spend time with whoever you want. And James is a great guy. I can understand if you have feelings for him".

"He's just a friend Will. When we spent that time together discussing books it made me see there was no spark,well at least not from me. I told mum that i can see him being a best friend but there was nothing romantic. Don't get me wrong,he's lovely and sweet and nice on the eyes." Flick said.

"I'm so happy to her you say that. I was worried you'd chose him over me" Will said happily.

She leant over and kiseed him again and said "Not in a million years. I love you William Murdoch and when this ship docks in New York i want to be with you".

"But how will this work with me living in Scotland and you living in New York?" Will asked realising he had not thought about the future but then he didnt realise he would stand a chance with this beautiful woman sitting infront of him.

"We'll figure it out when the time comes. Let's just enjoy now. Besides we still have days until we are arrive in New York" She smiled gazing into the warm eyes of her new boyfriend. No man had ever made her feel this way before. To her he was the most handsome,kindest,sweetest man she had ever met.

They talked and finished their meal and then Will stood up and said "Would you like a moonlight walk on deck before i escort you back to your room?".

"I'd love to Will" She smiled standing up and taking Will's arm and leaving the restaurant.

They walked up on deck and looked up at the sky "Wow a shooting star! Look Will!" She exclaimed as they both looked up at it.

"You're meant to make a wish" Will said.

"Well let's both make a wish but not tell the other" Flick said.

I wish you were my wife and mother of my children Will said in his head.

I wish that we are together for the rest of our lives. Flick said in her head.

Uknown to them both they had pretty much wished for the same things.

"You look freezing ,put this around you" Will said as he took his greatcoat off and wrapped it around Flick.

"Thanks Will" Flick smiled as she started to feel warmer and could smell Will's cologne on his coat.

Will faced her and put his loving arms around her waist and brought her in close to him where their lips were only an inch apart. "I could hold you like this all night Flick" he said.

She put her arms around his waist and said "So could i".

"I love you so much" He said placing his lips against hers and kissing her gently.

She broke the kiss and said "And i love you too".

"Let's get you back indoors beore you catch a chill" He smiled as he took her arm and they walked happily back to her stateroom.

When they got there he kissed her again and said "I'll see you tomorrow. And remember i will always love you".

"And i will always love you. Do you want your coat back?" She then asked.

"You can keep it until i see you tomorrow" He smiled as he pecked her cheek and left.

She then went back into her room and collapsed on her bed in absolutely took off Will's coat and snuggled up with it.

Will Murdoch is all mine!. She said in her head.
