James' P.O.V

As we discussed Thomas' drawings I couldn't help but wish that I could be like him travel around the world, he gets around for someone less fortunate than myself. He went to Paris!

I've always wanted to go there..

I sigh then we continue our walk around the deck again, I was getting bored then blurted out, "Why can't I be like you Thomas running around the world without any worry or without anyone guiding me, it all sound exciting..."

"Well what would you like to do if you got off this ship with me?"

"I would love to go with you anywhere, anywhere fun, I haven't had any excitement in a long time and you seem like someone who has adventures everyday."

"Well it is fun not to know where you are going or where you are gonna end up."

".....must be nice..."

"We could do those things, I'd take you out, show you how to do all the things you probably wouldn't do."

I giggled and blushed, "Things like what?"

"Oh nothing.." he said, I saw a little faint red on his face then he looked towards the horizon when the sun was starting to set.

"Wow time flys by when I'm with you."

"Yeah." We walked together to another place where we could see the ocean, I kinda forgot what it was, if Aaron hadn't burned all my books maybe I'd remember...

My mother came behind us with three other women two where wearing white like her and another was wearing black. She insisted I got with her to get ready for dinner.

The ladies she was with greeted Thomas politely while she looked at him like if he were a bug....a dangerous one..

I waved bye to Thomas and everyone followed me and my mother except the lady in black...

If only my mother cared about my well being we wouldn't be in this mess...and if only I didn't have to marry Aaron for his money...
