Stranded

Chapter 1:

The Spectacular Cruise

(AN- this randomly popped into my head. Everyone are humans. I don't own alpha and omega. Enjoy)

Humphrey's POV:

I climb aboard this private ship, wondering why I am even here to begin with. I'm not too fond of the idea of being hundreds of miles away from shore. Yeah, Garth invited tons of people from school, including Lilly and Kate. Kate gave in willingly, but Lilly said that she wouldn't come unless she can bring a friend that wasn't invited.

"For protection." she reassured me, cause Garth really liked her, and he can be forceful. Let's not get into details.

That is the only reason I am stepping on this boat. To protect my best friend. I really hope it doesn't come down to that. I really like Lilly, so I'll do everything in my power to keep her safe.

I hope that's enough.

Lilly grabs my hand and pulls me up the ramp onto the ship. "Isn't this exciting!"

I share only a portion of her enthusiasm. Being on a big boat in the middle of the ocean, normally leads to a "Robinson Crusoe" type plot.

We step into the atrium and admire the beauty in the room. The glass elevators rise fifteen floors, many different sculptures and paintings are arranged on the walls. Lilly grabs my arm with her other hand. "Isn't this spectacular?"

I take a look around with Lilly and realize that this is a full-blown cruise ship. With crew workers and many different activities everywhere. How Garth's family owns this I have no clue. Maybe I will enjoy this stay. "Yeah." I turn to her. "Thanks for bringing me."

She blushes, "I needed someone by my side to enjoy this with me."

A thought pops into my head. Even through all this beauty, Lilly is the most beautiful. Wow, that was cheesy. And how the heck did that pop into my head? We are just friends.

We take another elevator down to the luxury suites, where Lilly's room is. We walk down the longest hallway I've ever been in. Then we make it to her room. She slides in her keycard and the door opens with a click. She pushes it open and gasps.

The room is huge. There is a king sized bed, a full sized bathroom, a big flatscreen TV, and a glass doorway that leads onto a balcony big enough to fit two people in chairs. There also is a coffee maker and a mini fridge.

"Wow." she says, clearly taken aback.

"This is a sweet suite!" I say. "You got this place fixed up nicely."

"let's go see your room." she says, and closes the door.

I look at my pass. It isn't on the same hall as Lilly. Not even on the same level. "It's on level two." I say, pointing at my map. "On the other side of the ship!"

"That's too far away." she says. She looks away and says quiety, "You can sleep in here if you want."

"What?" I get excited, why I do not know.

"In this room."

"Ok, I'll ask for extra blankets so I can make a bed on the floor."

"No!" Lilly says, almost too quickly. She then blushes. "The bed is big enough for both of us."

"Really, you are ok with that?"

"I mean, we are friends, right? Nothing more to it."

My heart sinks a little. "Yeah, Friends."

Apparently some dissapointment was audible through my voice. Lilly looks into my eyes. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." I try to sound cheerfull.

"Okay, if you say so." she looks down at her map. "Come on, let's go play some putt-putt."

"Ok." Lilly extends out her hand and I hesitantly grab it.

Lilly's POV:

I drag Humphrey by the hand up the stairs onto the top level, where the mini golf course is. We walk up to the counter where one worker sits.

"Two please" Humphrey says.

"What color?" He asks.

"Purple." I say immediately.

"Surprise me." Humphrey says. He never picked a favorite color. I'll have to get him to pick one later.

The guy hands over the clubs and balls, and we each grab one. Then we walk to the first hole.

Throughout this whole time, we never think of unlocking our hands from each other.

I step up and place my ball in the spot, then try to knock it in the cup. It speeds over the hole and bounces over the little bricks surrounding it. It then makes its way all the way to the edge of the ship.

"Wow, that sucked!" I say, and I go fetch my ball.

When I make it back Humphrey starts talking. "You might want to hit it a bit softer."

I place the ball back and try again, with the same results. Once I make it back for the second time I say, "I need you to show me."

"Ok." he starts talking some random gibberish about physics that is way over my head. He is so smart.

"No, like this." I grab his arms and wrap them around my waist, then put his hands on top of mine.

"Oh, this way." he says quietly. I nod and we step up to the ball. He slowly guides my arms back, then gently pushes them forward, sending the ball straight into the cup.

"Yes!" I shout. "Let's go to the next hole."

I pick up the ball out of the cup and put it on hole two. For some reason it felt good when Humphrey embraced me to help me hit, and I want to do that again. So I swing the putter as if it were a driver on a par five.

"Lilly!" Humphrey says as I swing the club down. "Fore!" he yells as the ball soars.

The ball launches into the air and nails a person from school in the back of the head. He hits the deck hard.

"Whoops, I need your help again." I giggle. Humphrey gives me a suspicious look and wraps his arms around me. I smile and lean my head against his chest.

He helps me taps the ball in. "See? We do much better as a team. Let's keep playing like this." I say as I pull him throughout all the holes, so I can cherish that moment where I am in his arms.

The game sadly comes to an end, and I check the score card. "That was the best I've ever done in putt-putt. It was fun."

"Yeah." Humphrey says.

"Let's go eat." I tell him, suddenly feeling hungry.

"Sure." he says and I walk as close next to him as I can possibly manage.

I slip my hand into his and he looks at me with raised eyebrows. I giggle and lean my head against his chest. He slowly wraps his arms around my shoulders and I accept the warm embrace.

Is something starting here?

Humphrey's POV:

What is going on? Lilly is cuddling me as we walk to the restaurant. Do friends do that?

I don't question it and start enjoying it.
