Chapter 2-First Sights

Bella's P.O.V.

Alice stilling sprinting down the corridor with the slightest touch to the ground "No," she persisted "We have to look at the room."

I shrugged, "Fine." I followed behind her watching each step she took.

I walked down the corridor, looking for the big brass plaque indicating the room of 103. I followed the signs as they lead me to the most beautiful staircase. The railing and stairs of a mahogany color, and the ceiling made of a glass dome. An angel statue separated two aways up the twirling staircase. He held a torch of light to the right side of the staircase. It welcomed me as I walked up the right staircase. the steps were rimmed with gold, the wood was carved with flowers, and herbs. The metal that separated the railing from the ground was the same with gold outlining parts. As I took about the first ten steps, I glanced up noticing a clock with more cravings and gold sprouting out of it. This area of the ship was covered with this design I noticed, as I glanced all around me. I walked again, following the staircase till I spotted a hole, and stairs with gray light coming out. I climbed up the stairway. I came across the first deck outside of the ship.

I found a balcony leading out into the ocean, towering over the second and third class deck. I gazed out to watch the violent waves of the ocean while the crisp air moved my hair from my face. I gripped my fingers onto the frosted railing, my hair was rising and falling as the wind blew.

I then caught the eye of a man, staring at me from down below, sitting in a bench, facing me, with the bench right in front of the ocean. His hair was bronze, and appeared to be tousled with by his fingers numerous of times. His golden eyes were having me become lost in them, sending an electric shock rush through my body. I began to study him, I then realized he was moving on from gazing at me face to my dress that Alice designed. It was sky blue dress, the bodice was exquisite with lace aligning the font, and sleeves just reaching my elbow. I looked down at my dress skirt, there was a hole just big enough to fit my shoe. I forgot that I fell out of my car. Alice is going to be so mad once she sees that, I'm surprised she hadn't already. I became lost in his eyes again, he looked into mine.

I drew my sight away from his eyes to a piece of paper on his lap, the wind blew it from all of the sides that hadn't had his arms resting on. The paper had rows of lines on them, a big space was left at the top. Most of been for a title I thought to myself. I returned to watching the violent waves hitting, and tumbling with each other. I looked down again with a quick glance, he smiled, a crooked smile even better than Jacob's, as he wrote something onto that piece of paper. I peered up towards the sky, it was twilight, my favorite time of day.

Jacob's voice came from behind, "Bella, come on, love!" I turned around with a twirl. I walked with him down the grand staircase, as I interlaced his hands with mine. Jacob led me to our room, with our hands connecting us, my pace wasn't as rapid as his. He showed me the door that I've been looking for, the brass plaque with the number of 103.

I found mother sitting on my bed, right next to the clothing Alice must have laid out.

She stood up seeming to be in distress, grimacing at me "Where have you been? You were supposed to be with your sister, she came back alone. She set out her clothes and yours, then escaped to go find you. Couldn't you at least have told her where you were going?"

"I'm seventeen, mother. Besides she sprinted down the corridor, I followed the plaques for about 10 minutes. Then I found the grand staircase with the stairs that led out onto the deck, the misty air on top of the waves were gorgeous. How was I supposed to take my eyes away?", I remembered that man while I spoke to her. I continued on," Then Jacob found me, peering over the edge of the deck as twilight began."

She pierced me with her eyes, they opened wide and stared," Well get ready quickly, thirty more minutes till' dinner." She handed me the dress, I could feel fury surrounding her and within her voice. What was wrong with going off? I'm almost an adult, shouldn't I be a little more independent.

As fast as mother stormed out, Alice came in twirling as she turned in through the doorway with her dress changed. Her dress was extensive like the one I was wearing but with a light green, and thin straps holding it into place.

"There you are, Bella. Time to get ready, come on." she said in a hurry. She grabbed a new dress that she designed over the week while preparing to leave. The maroon dress was clothed with sparkles that covered the bodice while it shaped my curves, and the dress skirt was layered with more sparkles. I believe it is one of my favorites now, I gave her my smile.

I undressed, leaving my corset on and so with all of my undergarments. Alice lifted the dress over my head, and I slipped right in, appearing right through the collar. I turned around, facing the mirror behind me. The dress looked stunning on me, Alice did it again like with every other dress she created. I blushed a red scarlet color. She rapidly put on my makeup, and fixed my hair from the tangled mess it became from the breeze blowing it. My hair was pulled back into a bun as my face was flushed with powder. I grabbed my handbag and then we strolled out the door.

We entered the staircase, the angel statue was still their welcoming us with its torch of light. I stepped on each step trying to match Alice's footing. I hit my foot against the step, I reached my hands out in front of myself, I caught myself before hitting myself against the stairway. Alice held out her hand, I took hold of it, lifting myself up.

"Come on, Bella. Mother will be upset if we're late." Alice started to jog up the steps as I grabbed her hand. I followed after her, making sure I didn't lose my footing. We located the restaurant, and taking the first step in.

"Oh my god, this is stunning." Alice was struck with bewilderment. The restaurant was filled with white large tables, on top were gold embroidered plates, utensils, table-cloths, candles, and a snow white bouquet in the middle. The walls and ceilings were hazel with indented gold designs. We stood in disbelief, understanding why this ship is called "The Ship of Dreams". It was luxurious, with only objects I could find in my dreams.

Alice came across my mother's table, Jacob was sitting next to her. People I didn't even know I saw there. Alice, and I ambled to the table, Alice sat on the other side of mother, while I sat right next to my Jacob. He kissed my cheek, while he intertwined our fingers together.

"So you must be Isabella?" said a man with a commanding expression on his face.

"Yeah, just call me Bella please. So-"

" Isabella don't be so rude, you should let Captain Smith call you by your name, Isabella is your name, right?" Mother glared at me with intensity. I glared back, but not with the intensity she surrounded me with.

"So umm.. Isabella, what do you expect out of life?" I turned my head to see the architect of this ship, Mr. Thomas Andrews. I pulled back a piece of loose hair behind my ear.

Jacob answered for me "Well, I was planning to travel around the world with Bel-, I mean Isabella." Everyone began to laugh, what was so funny? His eyes were gazing down at his plate of caviar. My mother glared at him with her piercing eyes, now she wanted me to be Isabella?

"No Jacob, her plans are to marry you, and stay home." Mother was making me uncomfortable, I didn't want my future being decided now. She continued," Isabella would be the house wife, taking care of your children."

"So, Jacob is that what you plan to do with Isabella and you, travel around the world?" Mr. Andrews said without really paying attention to my mother's saying. I heard more chuckles and giggles.

We nudged each other,"Yes, we would lo-." Jacob and I responded it simultaneously. The laughs were still continuing.

My mother's voice came in,"Don't be silly, you'll have to have children one day, or another. They need a stable house. I've already picked out a house and everything." She continued on to the rest of the table about her grandchildren will be, Jacob's and my wedding, and our family being the most perfect family ever. I touched the top of my cheek, tears were running down my eyes.

" Excuse me." I said while pushing my chair under the table. Jacob was trying to hold me back, he grabbed my hand, I pulled away.

" ISABELLA! Come back here or god so help me!!" my mother's voice was pounding through my skull. I ran off, I wondered what everyone thought of my pushy mother now. I heard silent footsteps follow me, I turned around. No one was there, maybe it was just my mind.

I was sobering now, I found myself running down the stairs of the third and second deck. This was my time to leave the earth. Each step I took to the back of the Titanic. The memories I've had with Alice, Jacob, and that man who I saw this evening rapidly flew into my mind. Would it hurt them? Would they sincerely miss me? Tears were streaming down my face, I clutched my fists together. I reached the railing, the frost bit my hands as I touched it. I glanced down below, the waves were violently crashing, it was dark and murky. I felt the breeze on my skin, it was frigid. I stood on the railing, goodbye! I sent my mental note out everywhere, wishing someone would answer.

Alice's P.O.V

I stared at Bella's face as eyes fell on her face. She was getting uncomfortable. Oh, mother why the hell do you have to do this to her?

"Excuse Me." Jacob gripped her, she pulled away running.

"ISABELLA! Come back here or god so help me!!!" my mother's voice was filled with anguish, and hatred. I hated when she did this with her supposed "friends".

"I'll go with her. She's crying, you don't know what could happen to her when she starts." I began to get out of my seat.

Mother glared at me, " Um.. fine, make sure she won't do anything damn stupid." She really needs to think about what she says. I ran after Bella, I followed her to the deck. She disappeared, I flashed my head both ways. I ran around the first class class, she was no where to be found. I dared myself to walk down the stairs to the second and third class deck. I did, I ran up to the front of the boat, no where. I strolled on the right side of the boat. A young man walked in the opposite direction of me. His hair was gold, so with his eyes. They were gorgeous, my desire was to just stand and stare. He glanced back at me. His face looked as if it was chiseled from an amazing artist. An electric rushed through me.

"Umm.. hello?" It felt as if he got lost in my eyes as he said that.

" Oh, um… sorry. I'm Alice Swan." I got lost in his eyes while I just stood there without any movement except for my lips. I scanned his whole body, it was beautiful. He can't be human.

" I'm umm… Jasper Cullen, pleasure to meet you." So he was a gentleman. I kept getting lost and lost in his gorgeous eyes. My heart was beating unevenly, it kept on skipping a beat.

A vision fell into my sight, it was Bella. It was a little bit blurry though, she was standing on the railing on the back of the boat. Her arms at her side, her knees bent. She was going to jump! She stared down at the water, her cheeks were still strained with tears. I started to run, I forgot about Jasper. I turned my head back to him.

" I have to go, no time to explain. I hope to see you soon," A whole area of my heart started to disappear. I felt lonely inside. I ran as fast as my body would let me.

Bella was there, still standing on the railing. No, I thought mentally projecting it at her, don't do it!
