The Island

Chapter 2: Beautiful Name

'Awww man' was loudly heard as Jake needed to earn his journey, 'Man can't I buy a ticket' he said a bit begging 'sorry it is only pre-sale' (so did I answered your question?), how does he needs to earn it? Well it's by doing chores…dirty chores.

Jake's POV

'My name is Drake and I am the captain of St. Bermuda, I am not a bad person so only one chore a day is enough' his loud and low voice bellowed. He stepped aside and revealed a closet in it is a bucket and a towel, I let out a heavy sigh before I took the bucket and began rubbing the floor. 'Man this ship is BIG' I thought to myself as I was rubbing the 120 feet long, 3 stores high and 40 feet wide ship. After I did the lower and middle floor I stood up to look around, I stretched out and looked around 'Wow this is Lame' I thought to myself as I saw everyone being snobby, rich and Lame. I sighed; I sat down again and thought of that girl who saved me from a high fall.

Suddenly I felt a knee to my head, my head landed into my bucket. Shocked by the suddenness I couldn't manage to pull my head out, but I felt two soft hands on the side of my head pulling me out. I gasped for air and violently shook my head, 'so that is how you treat someone who helped you?' a voice said while water in my ears caused me not to recognize who it was. 'Yes actually I do, with someone who caused it' I said grumpily while I whipped off my face with my hands. As I opened my eyes I saw two Celeste blue eyes looking sad they were her eyes, shocked by the thought of I made her sad I could only think of one thing. 'Oh I am so sorry, I didn't mean to say it like that, I was only grumpy by the fact that I needed to scrub the whole damned ship and.. Ouch' I said it so fast I bit my tongue, as I rubbed my tongue I could hear her laugh again. Hearing her angelic laugh my tongue didn't hurt anymore.

'Hey Jake' she said with her beautiful voice. 'Hey R… Euh, I haven't caught your name yet.' I said sheepishly as my right hand rubbed my neck. 'My name is Rose, nice to meet you' she said as she pulled out her hand, I gratefully took it and stood up.' Rose that's a nice name; I managed to say before I left the stations with Rose express, Destination: Roseland. 'Rose, Rose what a beautiful name' I thought to myself. Suddenly I woke up due to a hand waving in front of my face, 'What, Who, huh' I uttered surprised. Seeing her confused face 'on I was…Euh…thinking yes thinking about...Err…shoelaces…yep' I panicked. 'Really great now she thinks you are a shoelaces maniac" I thought to myself as I wanted to slap myself. But to my surprise she giggled 'you are really funny' she said, suddenly she put her face an inch from mine and looked straight in my eyes with her big blue questioning eyes. 'Now what were you thinking about?' she asked with a deadly curious tone. 'You really have beautiful eyes' I said on a low voice, 'aw thanks, you have beautiful eyes too, why do you need to rub the floor actually?' she asked concerned. 'Ah to make a long story short, I lost my ticket' I said while rubbing my neck with my right hand. We both laughed. 'Oh I need to go; Brad doesn't like you very much. So bye' she said in a hurry. As she quickly left I could still feel her warm breath on my face, 'Awww man I'm in love, but damn she's blazing hot'

After she left I was so high in the skies I didn't paid much attention to anything, I took my towel out the bucket and continued while I still thought about her. As I was still in Roseland I rubbed the rest on the deck, until Drake came along' Jake what have you done?' he screamed about an inch from my dreamy face. I woke up shocked, 'huh, what, uh I rubbed the floor?' I sheepishly said. 'Just take a look at it' Drake said pointing to a gross spot. 'Oh wait that is the floor, wait everything is dirty…. Shit' I thought to myself. Drake's kind smile returned 'don't worry, here's another bucket. Clean it up and I'll guide you to your suite.

(Flashback)

As Rose was talking to Jake, they both were unaware of another person; we can only see a quite broad person approximately 6 feet high changing the buckets.

So what do you think of this one, I liked writhing scenes where Jake and Rose haven't met yet. One question: who is this mysterious person and why does he sabotage Jake. Enjoy and review.
