I stumbled out of the door hearing him subtly laughed to himself smirking whilst he locked the door as we made our way to the main area of the cruise. It was filled with people and loud jazz music played by a live band, the cruise had champagne lighting and extravagant golden chandeliers. The floors were the whitest marble and at the end of the cruise was an elegant looking white gold bar that had bottles of expensive liquor perfectly arranged on shelves.

I glanced over and noticed a tall man wearing a suit with the most chocolate hair and piercing green eyes standing by the window with a glass of liquor that looked like a whisky of some sort. I gave him a smirk and watched as his eyes follow me to the bar where I sat and waited to be served.

"I'm going to be back soon I want to go speak to the workers and ask what other bands are playing. Is that okay?" He asked in a gentle tone

"Of course just don't be too long" 

"Also do not order any drinks until I come back" he ordered

"Just water for her please" He instructed the bar tender who nodded in understanding

About a minute after he walked away I heard a glass being placed down and sensed that someone sat on the stool next to me. I turned my head and was met by the green eyed man in the suit who was fixing his tie next to me. His hair looked slightly unkept as it was sticking out in every direction and looked like it was due for a cut and maybe a wash.. his eye bags were extremely prominent and his once expensive looking shoes were scuffed and untied. 

"Oh it's you"

"Haha 'you' has a name, Zayne" he smirked

"You don't look like much of a Zayne.." I wasn't quite sure what I was going on about I was probably too drunk to form a sentence properly 

"And what do you mean by that" 

"I'm not sure why I even just said that" I murmured

"Can I get you a drink?" he gestured at the bar tender

"Oh no my boyfrie-"

"Fuck that's your boyfriend? I though that was your brother.." 

"Jesus do we really look that alike.. no he's my boyfriend, I think... long story short yes my boyfriend" I rambled

"He's cute, he's uh got nice eyes"

"You're cute too and your eyes are mesmerising they remind me of a forest with moss and vibrant leaves everywhere" 

I paused the second I heard that sentence leave my mouth and threw my hand over my mouth I faced the wall trying to stop myself from splurging anything else out.

"Huh are they? I didn't mean to get you all flustered you can look at me again"

"Shit I'm sorry.. I'm too drunk and my boyfriend will be back any second. Please don't mention this too him" I said as a jumped of the bar stool and went to find him

"Baby I told you to wait at the bar.. I haven't been gone that long have I?"

"No I just feel sick can we please go back to the room I need to shower and lie down." I complained rubbing my head as a fell into his arms.

I had a quick shower and washed my hair then put on a emerald green slip dress and crawled into the sheets resting my spinning head on his chest.

"Shit I haven't told my mum we're safe can you pass me my phone please" I remembered even though my brain was so foggy

"I don't have your phone is it in your bag?"

"FUCK" I sat up so fast making my head spin a hundred times worse. I must have left it at the bar.. I hobbled out of bed and made my way to the door

"What's wrong? did you loose it?" 

"No I know where it is i'll be back in a minute"

"Yeah no get back in bed I'll go get it, you're in literal lingerie there are creeps out there" he said in a demanding and assertive tone

I chucked on a bath robe and walked towards the bar trying to locate my bag.

"Excuse me have you seen a black and silver handbag? It has my phone and wallet in it I forgot it here about 20 minutes ago I was sitting at this stool right here" I asked slightly panicking

"No I'm sorry nothings been handed in but i'll take down your room number in case it's found, write it down here" he said handing me a pad of paper

I ran my hands through my hair slightly yanking It as a dragged my feet down the hallway back to our room

"Did you forget something..?" a familiar voice asked causing me to freeze and widen my eyes as I slowly turned around

"You looked so worried" he said in a husky voice

I attempted to yank the bag out of his hand when I felt his hand wrap around my wrist making me subconsciously loosen my grip

"A thank you would be nice" he said smiling whilst looking down at me

I batted my eyes and him and said nothing pulling my hand back as his grip around my wrist loosed

"I can keep this for the night and we can try this again tomorrow, you look like a well mannered lady why don't you use them" I could feel my stomach starting to fill with butterflies at the alluring tone he was using

I opened my mouth to try and speak but instead his hand fell on my cheek and his eyes were locked with mine as I struggled to speak

"Manners?" he whispered

"Please.." I whined

"Huh? I meant thank you?"

I slapped his hand of my face in embarrassment and quickly thanked him sarcastically and sped back to the room. I didn't mean to say that it was just like a reflex, a second nature or natural instinct I mean he was cupping my face staring straight into my soul.. I got distracted or flustered or something like that I ran into the room checking down the hallway before I shut the door behind me, he was still standing there scratching his neck whist smirking and shaking his head at me.

I'm sorry for not writing in so long.. I'll try and make more chapters since i'm on holidays again :)
