S.S. Queen's Holiday Cruise [2]

Chance

I hesitate before shaking my head and looking away, "I have no freaking clue who I am beyond you, and being told by some stranger that I have this whole other life is not my idea of a honeymoon."

Katie

I turn his head back to mine and kiss him quickly. "Chance, I know that this is hard because I am in the same boat you are. We are going to get through this though, together." I say

Chance

I look in her eyes and bite my tongue. You're not going through the same thing. You remember your whole life. I don't. I remember bits and pieces that don't add up, and I'm expected to be okay with that.

Zane

Chance bargs back into the room, I jump up from where I was laying down, "Whoa, Chance, what's got you hot headed." I said.

"I went to see my parents." He said.

"Your parents are board?!" I ask angrily.

He sits down with Katie in his arms, "yea, why?" He asked.

"I'm staying away from them." I said.

Katie

I was about to ask Chance what he was holding back, knowing he was thinking, but he just pulls me back into the room. I listen to the two talk and the look at Zane, confused. "Why are you staying away from them?" I ask

Chance

I shake my head and look down, not caring enough to listen anymore.

Zane

"They tried to kill me, probably to protect Chance from me, I still have a scar from when he stabbed me in the stomach with a sword. Dude got me from behind." I said.

Kaite

I close my eyes and shake my head. "I am not asking anymore questions." I say. I move to the top of the bed and lay down. "I am done for the night." I cover up and lay my head against the pillow.

Chance

I stay where I am for a moment before kicking my shoes off and lying beside her without another word.

Zane

"See ya'll in the mourning." I said.

Katie

I lay my head on Chance's chest, feeling a little weird that Zane is in here. I shake it off and soon fall asleep.

Chance

I fall asleep as soon as I close my eyes, not allowing my thoughts to keep me awake any longer.

Katie

I wake the next morning not wanting to see what the day has in store. I sigh and kiss Chance's cheek. I hate seeing him like this. The only thing that keeps me moving is going through so much more than I can understand.

Chance

I open my eyes to a kiss and, for a moment, forget everything that went on last night. When I remember, I close my eyes again and hold Katie closer rather than curl up and turn away like part of me wants. I need her, and I made that clear yesterday at the alter. I'm not turning my back through our first trial.

Katie

I smile as his arms wrap around me and he holds me tighter. "I want you to know that I was wrong yesterday. You are dealing with so much more that me and I am sorry that you have to. I also want you to know that I am not going to let this affect out relationship. I am going to stand by you the whole time." I whisper.
