*Flashback*
(Charlotte is 13 and visiting her mother's grave.)
Charlotte walked to her mother's large grave in Babison Bones Graveyard, wearing a pink belly showing tang top with a light blue flower on it, a very short white skirt that was basically underwear, and clear jelly shoes with her hair in two pigtails. She sat down next to the tombstone and laid her head against it, rubbing her little pale hands on the part where it engraved Barbie Clarkson.
"Hi Mommy," Charlotte said to her mother as if she would get a hello back. She gave the tombstone a light kiss and continued the conversation. "How are you?"
Even at thirteen she was as naive as she was at four.
"I'm not so good," Charlotte whined, dropping her head. "I don't know who to talk about this, daddy's too busy, and Clar and Cliff are too childish to talk to. You're all I got!" Charlotte told. "I know." The way she was speaking was if it was a real conversation. "Promise not to tell anyone?" Charlotte asked her mother. In response there was nothing, but Charlotte went on. "What is love? I thought I understood, but I don't. I thought I loved Gregory, but I don't. Gregory Curtis, Mother. He was like a boyfriend to me. He would always come around to see daddy, but then came to see me when daddy was busy. We became great friends, he was so nice to me. Then we started to do stuff, stuff that people who really care and love each other, stuff like you and daddy. It just I don't feel ok about it anymore. I started high this week and taking health class, we started talking about relationships, like how to have good and healthy ones. It feels like my relationship with Mr. Curtis isn't healthy… I just don't understand! I love him with all my heart, but now whenever he comes to the house, I get sick and go to my room. I don't care about him anymore! I just don't feel the way I did before. He was my life and just deep down want him to feel pain. There's so many boys in my class that are so kind and handsome that I think I like, but Gregory would hate me. I did something bad Mommy, I thought it was ok, Gregory said that it would better if I did it, so I did, but now I feel even sicker about all of this! He said she would be in Heaven with you. Is she sweet and lovable like I hope? I named her Nevaeh even though Gregory said I shouldn't. He took me to a doctor and the doctor took the baby, I don't how, but he did and Gregory told me he was with you. Are you caring for her? I wish she was with me, I miss her. I asked my teacher about this, not using names that's Gregory's number one rule, but I'm telling you, so don't tell him! My teacher said that a girl my age isn't ready for a baby, so my friend, which is me just, did the right thing. When I went to give the baby, people were yelling as I walked in the building saying I was doing wrong, Gregory told me to ignore that. I can still hear their voices when I'm alone. I don't know who to believe about this. My teacher or the people? I tried to ask daddy, told him everyone, he told me to shush and that talking about it wouldn't help a single soul! He didn't even answer my question! Gregory told me a broke the number one rule asking my dad about that stuff, telling him our secret, but he understood that I was curious. Gregory and I don't really talk, only we when we… I think you'd be mad at me for my actions, so I broke up with Gregory. Also reason, because I don't like what we did! I did before, it made me feel nice, but now I'm sickened by his face! So we're done… I made a new friend today at school. Remember Dorothy Bennett, she really goes by Dodie? Well I met her son, Daniel Bennett, he's so kind and cool, and we're friends now. He knows about my past and he's really supportive with it all. He told me a story of when he was six and took three cookies from his mother, when he could only have one. He said he felt bad too, I told him it's not the same! Then we had a big laugh about it… Turns out he has brothers too. He has three, Dicky, Dewey, and Damon. I just have two, but we like other things together. We love movies, cherries, and apple pie!" Charlotte smiled. She looked down at her phone and saw it was getting late and that if not home soon, she'd be in trouble. "Mommy, I have to be going now, I have stupid homework! I'll try to visit you tomorrow. I just- I wish you were still here!" Charlotte raised her voice a little with sadness and hurt in her voice. She jumped up and ran to the black limousine that would take her house.
*End Flashback*
Louise fell back on the dark red, almost black, leather seat covered in sweat. She pulled Logan's jacket over herself, covering her body.
Logan laid his head down on her chest, panting and sweating.
Louise pat his moist hair, starting to laugh.
"Can I say that was amazing?" Louise smirked, her eyes on the roof of the car.
"I will take compliments," Logan answered. He lifted his head to her face, bent down and kissed her.
Louise put her hands on both sides of his face.
"It was ok…" Louise smirked.
"Didn't seem like that when you were screaming my name!" Logan shot back smiling.
Louise burst into laughter.
"You were my first, so that automatically makes you the best."
"I can't just get a good job?"
"Nope! But if you were willing to do exactly what you just did, I would scream even louder. Maybe then you'll get at least a wow," Louise grinned.
Logan laughed at the comment.
"Well if that's what it takes." Logan started to give light kisses on her neck, then deeper kisses, until he's sucking her neck. This making Louise moan. Her moan almost being louder than the sound of the door they came through opening and closing. Logan stopped what he was doing and grabbed their wet clothes.
"Well I saw them come in here!" one of the dirty coal workers told the three crewmen in their navy blue uniforms, leading them to the storage room. One of the crewmen held a walkie talkie and the other with a flashlight.
"Thanks," the man with the walkie talkie said. "Come on," he said to his partner and they began their search for the two trouble makers.
The two men quietly walked around, looking behind every crate and under every luggage to find the two everyone are looking for.
The man with the flashlight walked past the vintage car and just as he was about to keep moving, he noticed something on the window. A handprint in the foggy back window.
"Caden!" he called to his buddy. "Look at this." He shined the light to the hand.
"Well what do we have here?" Caden smirked as he walked to it. They walked to the door of the car.
"1...2...3!" The guys said together, then on 3 opened the opened the door.
"Shit!" The other man named Bruce yelled.
It was empty.
Louise and Logan ran out the only other exit in the large room. The exit led to a stairway. They ran up it laughing at how they tricked those men. The stairway was a very very deep stairway, but the ran the whole way, trying not to get caught by the men, so it only took them six minutes to get to the top.
"Did you see that one guy's face?!" Louise laughed as they reached the front deck.
"They looked so mad!" Logan laughed. He grabbed her hand and pulled her into him.
Louise laughing into his chest.
He hugged her tight.
"Hey!" A man who was on the watch job up on a tall pole in a metal box stand with his partner said to him. "Look! Down there! Those two kids!" He pointed to Louise and Logan.
"Aw! Man he's totally banging that!" His partner laughed.
The other man laughed too.
"Now come on! We have to focus on the sea!" His partner snapped.
The man groaned at his partner's comment and turned back to the sea.
The two men screamed at the view. Not the beauty of the ocean color at night, but the view of an iceberg the size of half the Seaic.
"Ahhh!" The two screamed in terror at the top of their lungs, but their height, the screams were weak and nothing that would catch an eye by the noises of the sea.
*Flashback*
(Charlotte high on drugs wandering around the ship)
Charlotte was all doped up and everything. She could barely stand as she wandered the hall, hitting the walls and people as she past. As she past people, some tried to help, help she wouldn't take. She spat at a person who tried to grab her hand.
"Do you know who I am?!" Charlotte would yell. "I'm a princess! You trash! Don't touch me!" she screamed.
Charlotte was on a mission. She needed someone. Yes someone. That someone was hard to find, but up high you can find anyone even someone you're not trying to find. She found the place where that someone would be, knocked on the door ever so lightly. It took him awhile to know someone was there. He walked to the door and opened.
"Charlotte?!" Dicky said surprised.
"Daniel, don't you act like you don't- don't know- what was I saying?!"
"Are you okay?"
"Daniel, I need my help! Yourself to help!" Charlotte didn't know what she was saying.
"Come in, I'll get you some water," he offered her.
She started in, but fell into Dicky's arms.
"I need you now!" Charlotte cried.
