Luciano made his way back to his room and changed into a pair of white trousers paired with a grey button down with the top buttons undone. A light grey vest covers the button down, and he paired it with a cardigan the same color as the vest. His leather classic shoes and straw boater hat completed the ensemble.

Walking up to the room containing the pool he found Aidan standing by a beach chair wearing a classic red and white striped swimming suit.

"That's a nice suit."

Aidan who had been staring at the other kids in the pool whipped around and smiled at Luciano.

"Yeah it's great, can I get in now? Mr. Oliver said I couldn't get in until one of you got here."

Upon seeing Luciano nod he jumped into the pool.

"You look good."

Hearing Reid speak behind him he chuckled. Turning around he found Reid in the same clothing as earlier. Plopping himself onto the beach chair he searched inside his vest pocket for his journal, but came away empty handed, cursing he scowled and threw his hands in the air.

"I forgot my jacket again."

Feeling something hit his shoulder he looked up and found his journal.

"I kind of suspected you'd forget, so I brought it up with me. Your jackets in my room, but I did bring you this."

Luciano smiled; reaching for his journal he laid his hand on Reid's. A few moments passed and Luciano pulled his hand away now carrying the journal. Reid Leaned down and crossed his arms on the back of the chair and leaned over Luciano's shoulder and spoke into the young writer's ear.

"So why exactly did we invite the pipsqueak?"

Chuckling Luciano ignored him and opened his journal and began writing. Luciano would glance up to check on Aidan ever once and a while. He found him enjoying the company of the other children, glancing over to Reid he found his sitting on a beach chair sunglasses on reading a thick book.

Hearing a mother shout to her child to leave the pool to get ready for dinner, Luciano agreed and shouted to Aidan, "Aidan, it's time to get out, we need to get ready for dinner."

Groaning Aidan left the pool and walked over to Reid.

Looking up Reid snorted. "Why don't you take this one, you've seen what I look like at dinner."

Laughing Luciano nodded and followed Reid to his room grabbing the small suit and his own jacket, and he went to his own room, Aidan in tow.

When they entered Luciano sent the small boy to take a shower. When he emerged he was giggling.

Luciano dressed his young companion in the suite Reid had provided, and slicked his brown hair giving him the sophisticated look. Dressing into his own suit, he slicked his own hair. If he had to be honest with himself he defiantly preferred keeping his hair natural. Letting it fall over his forehead and brush just above his eyes. Checking Aidan's small suite a final time, he nodded and walked hand in hand with the boy to the staircase.

They met Reid outside of the dining room near the bottom of the stairs. Luciano couldn't help but laugh at how brazen Reid acted. While all the other men and women in the room stood tall and proper, Reid leaned against a large pillar scratching his forehead. His piercing blue eyes were closed and he gave a wide yawn. The small group of people near him frowned and shook their heads.

Walking down the stair, his hand still gripping Aidan's tightly he smiled at the little boy.

"Reid is certainly the gentleman."

This earned him a small laugh from the tiny person.

Looking back to Reid he found the middle aged man looking at him with a small smile. Walking forward he met Luciano half way up the stairs. Raising his hands he brushed it over Luciano's hair.

"I like you better when you don't mess with your hair."

Blushing Luciano lowered his head and looked to Aidan. "Are you ready to eat?"

The small boy shook his head excitedly, and pulled Luciano into the room.

Laughing Reid shouted after them, "I don't think the foods that great, why can't they just make food that normal people like to eat." Luciano's laughed loudly, and was shushed by a stout woman wearing a large pink dress.

"Sorry!"

Sitting down at the largest round table they greeted Luciano's mother and father.

"Hello mother, father. This is Doctor Reid Oliver and this young man here is Aidan O' Mali."

Reid nodded his head; Aidan lowered his head and gave a small wave. Damian stuck up his nose and went back to talking to the well dress older man beside him. Lily smiled and waved back to the young boy.

"It's lovely to meet you Aidan, you also Mr. Oliver."

"It's Doctor Oliver."

Lily was taken aback by the irritation in the older man's voice.

"I'm sorry- Doctor Oliver."

Luciano frowned at the rude man, and received a shrug in response.

Sighing he turned back to his mother, her eyebrow was raised, Luciano shook his head and laughed. "Sorry about that, he is adamant about his title."

"Heck yes I'm adamant. I worked hard to become a doctor."

"What kind of doctor are you – may I call you Reid?"

Giving an indifferent shrug, Reid answered her question. "I'm a neurosurgeon." Seeing Lily's confused look he explained again in simple words. "I'm a brain surgeon."

"Oh so you mess around in peoples brains?"

Reid gave her an annoyed look but looked to Luciano and found him shaking his head rapidly. Sighing he gave a fake smile and answered.

"Something like that."

Luciano smiled to himself and sighed, he had helped avoid a catastrophe. He knew his mother was dense, and Reid as he said before he didn't suffer fools. Looking to Aidan he bit his lip. The small boy was fiddling around with his silver ware; an older woman from another table looked on indignantly.

Seeing his mother conversing with Reid he stood out of his seat and walked over to Aidan.

"Hey bud, I'm gonna give you a quick tip. Think of it as a game; let's see if you can remember, ok?"

Nodding Aidan sat back and intently listened as Luciano explain the right etiquette of dinner. Swallowing after Luciano was finished he nodded in understanding.

"But what if I mess up?"

"I'll tell you what, just look at me if you need any help."

Smiling the small boy hugged Luciano around the waist.

His father looked over and frowned, "Luciano, I do not understand where he came from, who are his parents."

Backing away from the boy he politely answered his father. "His mother is Anya O' Mali."

The grey haired man sitting next to Damian spoke with curious eyes. "I've never heard of the O' Mails."

Looking to the ground he answered, "They are traveling aboard the Titanic to America, they are third class sir."

The older gentleman and Damian both gave repulsed sound, "Steerage!"

Sighing Luciano continued. "Yes, Reid is treating his mother; she was denied treatment by the doctors on board."

Lily who had been listening to the exchange between her son and husband turned back to Reid.

"Oh that is awfully lovely of you Reid. Is that who you treat back in the states, people with limited income? If that is true, I have to say that it's very giving of you. They need doctors too."

Narrowing his eyes he retorted, "I help those that need help, Rich, poor it doesn't matter, and about my status as a doctor I'm very well know back in the states."

Dinner continued much like this, Reid became a source of amusement to them. They would ask him questions about his practice and then rudely make fun of him. A few times throughout dinner Luciano had to calm Reid down. He would entwine their hand below the table and stroke the slightly larger hand with his thumb, and Reid would relax until the next snooty comment.

Dinner was exhausting the young heir. He would have to keep Reid calm and also help the small boy with his etiquette. Aidan had for the most part been overlooked. Every now and again Damian would look at the child and scowl, but never insult the innocent youngster.

After what felt like eternity dinner had finally ended.

"Doctor Oliver, why don't you join us in the parlor?"

"Father-."

"Its fine Luciano, I'll meet you on deck tonight." Looking around Reid saw no one looking so he leaned forward and softly kissed the young blonds lips. Reid made to pull away but was stopped by a small whisper from Luciano.

"I love you."

"What?"

"I felt like I needed to say it, like if I didn't I wouldn't have another chance."

Frowning Reid ran a hair through his hair, "Luciano we will have plenty of chances, when the ship docks I will finalize all my dealings in America and I will travel to Italy. Where we can be together."

Laughing at himself Luciano shook his head, "your right, I guess I'm just a tad bit paranoid."

"Dr. Oliver we're going to the parlor now."

Nodding Reid smirked at Luciano, "well I do believe your charming father is expecting me."

Luciano watched the confident man walk away from him he felt his heart ache. He had opened himself up, told Reid he had loved him and had received nothing in return. He was a silly boy infatuated with someone who would probably never love him.
