Chapter 2 - Cal.

Roses POV.

I didn't know what to do, I turned around and sat very still.

He stopped pacing after a few minutes and then walked off. I let out a long breath and shut my eyes, but I really had to stop doing that because every time I did I just got images of Jack, frozen.

"S'cuze me madam, can I get your name please?" a man asked

"Rose- Rose Dawson" I replied

"Thankyou" he wrote it down and waddled off

After a while the maid who cleaned me up came and got me to get me ready for tea, she gave me a fancy dress from the lost and found closet, obviously left in one of the first-classed woman's room, and some gloves that covered up my frost bite.

She escorted me to the dining area which was just like the one on the titanic.

At the bottom of the stairs I saw a figure, his hair was light and slicked back, he was in a expensive suit and he turned around. It was Jack!

I slipped on a stair and fell onto my bottom, the maid automatically tried to help me up, but I couldn't stop staring at the bottom of the stairs. After a while I realised it was my imagination playing the time he had met us for dinner on the titanic.

I stood up, "Oh thankyou, I am truly sorry" I said to the maid

"There is nothing to be sorry about, miss" she replied

"Thankyou for being so kind" I felt a tear roll down my cheek, she wiped it off for me

"You have been through a lot miss, I cannot imagine. Hurry please" she hurried me to the dining room and sat me down at a long table filled with first-class people.

"What a beautiful dress" one of the ladies said to me, "is it silk?"

"Cotton underneath, silk on top ma'am" I replied

"That is quite rare, what is your name?" she asked

"Rose" I said

"I am madiline, I have not seen you around here before" madiline said

"I was one of the people on the titanic" I looked as her eyes went wide

"Such a shame, I heard it was a wonderful ship, did you like it?" she asked

"I loved every minute up to the time it started to flood with water, I met a man. I fell in love with him, it was great" I fiddled with the napkin on my knees

The waiters gave us some sort of soup for an entrée with a serving of red wine.

"So where is this man now?" she continued our conversation

"He is um-" I couldn't finish, "excuse me" I got up and quickly ran to the main hallway.

I started to sob under my breath as I ran down it, then I bumped into someone.

"Hey darlin' no need to rus- Rose?" Said a voice

I looked up, it was Margaret Brown.

"Rose, is that really you?" her voice got louder.

"Yes, please be quieter" I demanded

"Your mother thinks your dead! This is a miracle, you have to come see her now!" she pulled my arm

"No!" I pulled my arm from her grip, "there are people who I would not like to see at the moment, if it isn't Jack then I wouldn't like to see anyone, I can't believe you people, you'd rather save your own lives than children's I bet, do you know what I went through? And only one, ONE boat came back. Your all selfish I hope you rot in hell" I ran to my room.
