Gravitation Fan Fiction ❯ Titanic: Gravi style ❯ Leaving ( Chapter 1 )

Scene one- Leaving

 

Shuichi took the man's hand as he stepped out of the car and took in the sight of Titanic.

“I don't see what all the fuss is about.” Shuichi said turning to his fiancé. “It doesn't look any bigger than the Mauritania. Man, and you had me all excited too.” Taki looked at Shuichi and snickered to himself.

“You can be blasé about something's my dear Shuichi, but not about Titanic. It's over 100 feet longer than Mauritania and far much more luxurious.” Shuichi now regretted commenting on Titanic, for now he had to listen to Taki's ranting. He turned and started to walk away not listening to Taki. Taki just sighed and turned to help Ruth out of the car. “Your son is naive and far too difficult to impress Ruth.” She just laughed

“You choose him so don't complain.” Ruth said eyeing him.

“Your right, sorry.” Taki said, feeling silly. Ruth shook her head.

“So this is the ship they say is unsinkable.” She said taking her place at Shuichi's side.

“It is unsinkable. God himself could not sink this ship.” A man in a ship uniform interrupted Taki. Taki just sighed and helped the man understand exactly were things needed to be taken, but in the end he naturally just told K to take care of it. Shuichi just snickered to himself and followed his mother as in the background he could here K shouting orders at terrified ship workers as to where suitcases were to be taken and what rooms they go to. Also K took this opportunity to yell at them that they were not moving fast enough and he insisted they needed a little motivation form his gun. All the while twirling a pistol in his hand and shaking it wildly and every now a then Shuichi could hear him laughing like a mad man. Shuichi wondered how he got away with such acts of gun violation and disturbing the public peace like he so often did, but Shuichi did not duel on it for too long for he soon blocked K's voice out too. Shuichi looked up once more at the ship. His mother looked at him and smiled.

“Titanic is a magnificent ship my dear, you should feel lucky that we get this chance to bored it.” Ruth closed her eyes and breathed in deeply.

“I guess, but” He was cut off by a hand on his shoulder and one on his waist, it was Taki.

“Come now, we better hurry or will miss it.” Taki said loud enough for Ruth to hear but just soft enough to say it in Shuichi's ear. Taki made to kiss Shuichi's neck but Shuichi pulled away just in time for Taki to suddenly kiss air.

“That's right, we have no time for this sort of stuff, so cut it out Taki. I would hate for you to be the reason we miss the ship.” Shuichi said turning to look at him, Taki gave him an irritated look but soon regained his composer. Taki was being more efficient then usual and this made Shuichi uncomfortable. He brushed it off as they began walking through the crowed of people saying their good byes and made their way to the ship. “Ah, I forgot my coat!” Shuichi yelled over his shoulder.

“Don't worry sir I got it.” A woman called, Shuichi could not see her face, but was confident in the woman and went back into deep thought. He hated all of this; to him the Titanic was a slave ship taking him back to America in chains. Outwardly he was everything a well-brought up young boy should be, minus the fact that he was gay. But inside, he was screaming to be free of this boring life. Find real love, true happiness and find some way to get away from Taki!
