TITANIC- How I met the love of my life., chapter 1
*1912- Ireland*
I was looking out the window of the horse buggy as it was slowly approaching the dock where the legendary ship awaited us to board it. I knew that as soon as I boarded the ship, all my chances of a happy life would slip away. But it was a legendary ship indeed. It was the biggest ship I had ever laid eyes upon. It was the Titanic. This ship would make history and I would be a part of it. It had made headlines, and was hard to get tickets, as they were being sold quickly. They had become sold out in the first week that they were out for sale. This was an honor to be on a ship this legendary.
"Isn't it a marvelous vessel, dear? It must of cost a fortune to make." My fiancé Henry said. He held my hand in his, and I shuddered inside. My mother had set me up with him because he was smart and rich. Money is all people cared about these days. I didn't like living in a first class society. I would have been ok living as a poor person.
"Yes, it is legendary, indeed" I said with sadness in my voice. Soon we would be boarding the ship, and it would sail far away from Ireland. Then it would dock and I would have to marry Henry Wright, and become Juliet Wright. It sounds horrible. I would like to keep my maiden name, Bouvier-De Louvre. But my mother won't allow it.
The buggy stopped, and the driver opened the door for me. I stepped out and looked at the Titanic, my slave ship. Henry came out of the car followed by my mother, and we boarded my slave ship.
*Meanwhile at a bar*
"Deal!" I said. The suspense was killing me. I picked up my cards and looked at my hand. It was a really good hand. Royal flush to be exact. My name is Billie Joe. I am the lead singer and guitarist in a band called Green Day, with my friends Mike and Tre. My friends and I are at a bar playing cards against these three strangers for three Titanic tickets.
"So, somebody's going to the USA." Tre said.
"I got nothing." The first guy said.
"I got nothing." The second guy said.
"Two pair." The third guy said.
"One pair." Mike said.
"One and a half pair" Tre said.
"You can't have half a pair, Tre" Mike and I said in unison.
"Ok, well Mike, Tre. Kiss Ireland's ass goodbye. We are going to England, baby!"
I exclaimed.
We grabbed our tickets and did a happy dance. We had got to be the most lucky sons- of- a- bitches in the world.
"Well the Titanic is leaving for the USA in 5 minutes!" One of the men said.
As soon as we heard that, we rushed through the bar doors and through a crowd of people saying goodbye to the Titanic. We got on the ship, with Tre lagging behind and went to the ship's deck to wave goodbye to Ireland. I was going back to my home country, and I couldn't wait!
