My mother and I recently had the supposed privilege of traveling on the world's largest cruise ship, on a first class trip from Southampton to New York City. I was raised in a very wealthy family, but this trip really redefined opulence. Everything started out relatively uneventfully. My family and I were staying on the first class deck of course. At the time I thought this is where I belonged. I mean a girl of my breeding should basically live this way right? My life up until this point was just an endless string of parties, balls, socials, box socials, dances, socialite dances and box socialite dances. I figured this is the way it would always be and it was a life not worth living. Here I was on a trip of a lifetime and I found myself standing on the railing of the ship, getting ready to take my own life by jumping overboard. And then I heard his voice. His name was Keith and all it took was a little convincing for him to talk me down and save my life. It was love at first sight and I didn't realize it at the time but me and Keith were about to share a lifetime of memories in just a few short days on that boat. It's funny. With all of my fancy boarding schools I had never really learned anything about life until Keith. He taught me so many things. He taught me that the best parties could take place not by having the best help, but by partying with the help. For some reason Keith taught me how to spit which was kind of disgusting, but most importantly he taught me about love. When I would lay naked for him to finger paint me it was like we were the only two people in the world, alone on the expansive ocean, floating together. We were so in love I didn't want to be apart from him for a second but I had no choice but to attend a fancy dinner with my mother without him. I rushed through the meal and immediately went to find Keith. I made my way to the lower deck and started asking where he was. Some of his friends told me he had gone for a walk towards the bridge of the ship to see the captain. I didn't understand what business Keith would have with the ship's captain but I didn't care. We just needed to be together. I ran as fast as I could. When I got close I noticed a crew member lying on the ground knocked unconscious. It was the third mate! I bent down to take a closer look in the dark and I heard a groan coming from a few feet away, "Hellllp, stop him". It was the second mate! I tried to ask what happened but he quickly lost consciousness. Before I could register what was going on I caught out of the corner of my eye 2 men lynched, hanging from a banister. Horrified, I realized who I was seeing. The ship's chief mate and captain dangled there before me, gently swinging back and forth. It was an eerie calm that was soon replaced by a shattering cackle that sounded remarkably like, like ...Keith! I ran towards the sound to find Keith alone at the helm of the ship cutting the wheel completely to the starboard, with a crazed look in his eye. I ran up to him screaming "What are you doing!". He quickly backhanded me across the face knocking me down. Dizzy, I got on my feet, only to be knocked down again by another shattering jolt. But this on had not come from the hand of Keith, but through his crazed steering. I would soon come to realize that Keith had completely changed the course of the ship and turned it into a nearby iceberg! I scrambled to make it to a lifeboat as I watched the ship start to sink. I was safe, but couldn't believe what had just happened. Such a whirlwind of emotions. Who was this man. What was his motivation? The questions ran through my head. As I was pondering this I watched the boat start to sink as the stern rose high into the sky. It was so massive, but I could almost make out a man standing at the very top standing calmly as the ship did a slow nosedive into the ocean. Just the he leapt off and started gliding towards my lifeboat at an incredible rate, wearing some kind of "flying squirrel" suit and holding a knife in his mouth. It was Keith! He landed on my lifeboat and started throwing my fellow passengers off into the icy water. Soon it was just me and him. He pulled out an old style, hand crank drill and quickly drilled several holes in the lifeboat. I tried to stop him but he was too powerful. He then threw my off and jumped into the water himself. I guess he didn't think this out very well because when he hit the water he looked pretty alarmed. We both made our way over to a scrap of wood and hung onto it for dear life. Keith then did possibly the most dispicable thing of all. There was only enough room on the piece of wood for one of us to float on top of it and the other to stay in the water and cling to the side. Keith insisted on flipping me for it, to see who could stay on top. He pulled out a coin and asked me to "call it". I was so delirious with cold at this point that I just played along. "Tails" I said. He flipped the coind and caught it in the air. "Sorry, heads, you lose". At this point Keiths hand was shivering so badly he dropped the coin. I snatched the coin and examined it to see Keith had used a double sided, with both sides heads. I tried to bring this to his attention but Keith just pushed me off. The next thing I remember is washing up on shore and finding a computer, so I can tell my story. I think the worst part about this whole mess is, deep down, I still have feelings for him. And everytime I eat at a nautical themed restaurant
