Titanic!AU Kylo Ren x Reader

Without Titanic: Honor and Glory’s breadth of research and information, this fic would not have been possible -- or at least, much more difficult to write.)

                                                   ---------------

There was nothing around you, in that moment.

No ship, no passengers, no frozen water. Just him, just your husband, just Kylo. Your heart thumped wildly inside your rib cage, squeezed to a near stop at the very sight of him, for it was still astounding to you that you had found him in that maze of a ship.

You had found him against all odds, and there he was, lying on the boat deck. The lights were out, but the emergency power was still on. Someone ran past you, but you did not see who it was. They threw something on you, something heavy and cold, but you did not care to look. There was so much noise – was that music? – but you could not listen. Not with him right here, so cold and so pale.

It was by the weak light of the emergency system that your hand crashed down upon Kylo’s cheek, hoping beyond hope that the shock of it would wake him from where he was lying too still.

“Breathe, god dammit Kylo.” You demanded, teeth bared in a feral sort of anger, tears freezing on your eyelashes as you slapped his face again and again, desperation and terror clutching your soul. “You are not dying on me, not now – breathe!”

You cast a murderous gaze up to the inky blackness above you, as if threatening the very heavens themselves. For if they claimed him on this night, after everything you’d been through to get him, you’d bring hell to their front door.

Your defiance would shake the stars.

You felt warm then, as if your blood boiling was the only thing keeping you together. The Titanic creaked and groaned, a horrifying sound of steel being crushed and pressed, bending and twisting in on itself deep in the bowels of the ship. You cried, oh how you wept, hot angry tears onto Kylo’s face. You were so close, you had been so close.

The ship groaned, and your hand gave one final attempt at rousing him before you resulted to the rudimentary CPR you had once only read about.

Rose knew more than you, and she assumed the position without speaking, began pumping compression onto his chest as the ship tipped tipped tipped. You filled your lungs and pinched his nose, forced air down into his lungs, tried not to think of it as a kiss, tried desperately not to think of this as the last time you might ever feel the press of his lips against yours.

“Wake up!” You sobbed against his cheek when you had to gulp down more air, Rose not letting up with the timed compression. “Wake up Kylo! Don’t you dare die on me!”

With trembling hands you swallowed down air and forced it through him once more, twice more, three times more – when his entire body convulsed and shuddered. He rolled himself onto his side, and then onto his hands and knees as he hacked up seawater and coughed the worst cough you’d ever heard in your entire life.

You simply could do nothing but throw your arms around his waist, sob into his back.

“Lord Ren oh thank the stars – oh thank you, thank you!” Rose hugged him too, and for one short moment, everything felt like it was going to be okay.

You heard the ragged wheeze of his breath, and that alone was enough to make your eyes pinch shut, the anger dissolving. He let himself collapse back down onto the deck, and the three of you did your best to not get trampled as hundreds of people rushed from the bow.

“Is this Heaven?” Kylo reached out, cupped a hand to your cheek. It was frozen solid, completely chilled and blue in the nails. You placed your own hand on top of it, let your tears thaw him if even for a moment.

“No, not yet. Not yet Kylo, come quickly, come we must move.” You said, shuffling back enough to stand.

The thing someone had thrown on you was a life-jacket, and you quickly buckled yourself into it, glad to see someone had tossed Rose one as well. There didn’t seem to be one for Kylo, but that was alright you thought, that was alright. Between the three of you, you’d all float.

“You’re not on the lifeboat.” Kylo coughed coughed coughed, spit onto the deck and wiped his mouth. He was glad to see there was no blood, his shoulders sagged with relief. “Why are you not on the lifeboat?”

“I couldn’t leave you.” Your chin wobbled as the ship creakedgroanedsnappedcrashed around you as it listed further and further to the side, a rumble so deep that it almost sounded like a great whale’s song. You wondered briefly, if the whales would inspect the wreckage, if they’d marvel at the hubris of mankind. “I won’t leave you, Kylo, I won’t, but we have to move. The ship, she’s going under and quickly.”

You did not know how he found the strength, but Kylo stood up on his strong legs, took in lungfuls of air, and cast a glance to how the water had risen up to the railings. Just earlier that day – or was it yesterday? You did not know what time it was – you and Kylo had stood against these very railings.

Just earlier you had envisioned a life together, a grand one filled with luxury.

Now, you’d be lucky to have any life at all, you’d take anything you could get.

“Then we must climb to the very edge, for that is the only possible way to survive this.” Kylo said, determined and stubborn, always with a plan. “We cannot let the ship crush us.”

He tried taking a step, but the ship lurched to the side again once more.

The music stopped, violinists in the distance overcome with water as it rushed up the bow.

“Come, Rose is here, Rose please help.” You asked, as the chaos from the crowd began.

Everyone began running as quickly as they could tried to outrun the water. You, Kylo and Rose joined them, joined in the mass of bodies all crammed together like sardines. There was a collapsible boat of sorts that had been overturned, that a group of men were trying to flip even as the water pushed them away, dragged them down into the ocean to join the rest of the unlucky ones.

“We will have to fight our way through, there are too many people.” Rose shouted, for you had to shout now if you wanted to be heard, all the screams of those outrunning the water.

You were growing so tired of being chased like this, but the terror of the reality hit you that soon there would be nowhere left to run.

“We will fight then, we’ve come this far, we must make it to the edge.” You said back, prepared to do anything at that point, prepared to do anything if it meant saving yourselves.  

“Take my hand –” Kylo said then, shaking his drenched hair out of his face and offering you an open palm. You grasped it as tightly as your own frozen fingers could, and as if the two of you shared some mental bond, you reached back to your friend at the same time as Kylo commanded, “Rose you hold onto her hand and neither of you under any circumstances ever let go, do you understand me?”

“Yes sir, I won’t.” Rose said, her hand fitting in yours and closing tightly.

“There’s no need for sir here.” Kylo shook his head and did his best to offer a smile to her, before hardening his expression and asking you both, “Ready?”

“Go!” You encouraged, and off you went.

As Kylo parted a path in the crowd by his sheer size and muscle alone, you were reminded of Lord Hux’s great war machines that he had designed. A body built of impenetrable steel, bulletproof, unrelenting. But instead of bullets, people bounced away from him, shoved to the sides, scrambling in his wake. Instead of rolling wheels, his heavy feet dug into the wooden floor-planks as he hauled you and Rose across the deck.

A feat which was providing most difficult, as the ship began to plunge further into the depths. The bow was all but gone now, screams danced atop the water like waves, waves which rushed pushed pulled people all around.

Somehow, you did not know you, but somehow you made it to the edge, to the very foremost end of the ship. It was time to climb, you realized, and Kylo did so with ease. The ship was on such an angle that the railings which had once been vertical now laid parallel to the water, and became the only thing flat enough to support oneself.

You all were not the only one with this idea, but there was space enough for the three of you as Kylo climbed over the railing, never once letting go of your hand.  

“Here! I’m right here, I’m right here we’re together.” Kylo assured you, short of breath but there, pale in the face but there.

You laid on your stomachs on the railing, arms and legs wound around it for better hold. From this angle you were looking straight across into the ocean, straight down into the belly of the ship. People were falling sliding tumbling down, screaming as their backs cracked and water rushed into their lungs.

“The ship can’t take much more of this, the bow is too heavy, there’s too much water.” You panicked, you were panicking, because of course you were, of course. What would happen when the ship fully went under? What would you hold onto then?

Just then, a loud snapping sound filled the air. It was unlike the moaning of metal you had all but filtered into the background.

No, this was sharp, fast snaps in the air.

“My god what is that, gunshots?” Rose asked, as metal mixed with screams and whips cracked loud in the night. But it was a familiar sound, and after only one more crack did you place it with horror.

“It sounds like the cables, remember? From the very first day?” Your mind went back to Southampton, how the ships of the berth had broken free, how the cables had given way to the Titanic’s sisters in the harbor. “Fuck the cables are snapping!! Look – look over there!”

Just then, one of the four great funnels fell over. It whooshed on its downfall, cutting through the air before slamming down onto the water, slamming down onto people swimming for their lives. You screamed out in sympathy for them, screamed out in terror as you knew they would be crushed, pinned underneath the funnel.

And then, the second funnel went up in a great spark, a plume of smoke. It too toppled.

You suddenly felt as though you knew the answer to that old riddle – if a funnel fell in the ocean and no one was around to hear it, it still made a sound.

You wondered if anyone could hear your screams, wondered if you’d be attracting sharks or monsters of the deep from all the commotion. A hysterical laugh bubbled out of you – for that would surely be something, wouldn’t it? Sharks were the last thing anyone needed.

But then you remembered, sharks were cold blooded, and water this cold would surely kill them too.

You remembered this while watching those around you give up their place willingly, letting go of the railing to plummet into the water.

“Don’t jump,” You began to shout, tried telling anyone who would listen as the ship groaned and creaked, as the lights of the emergency power began to flicker. You would be in total darkness soon, nothing but the stars which mocked you, which watched with curious twinkling eyes. “Don’t jump, the water will freeze you to death.”

“It’s useless they can’t hear you.” Rose tried, shook her head and squeezed your hand.

“Don’t jump please! Please you are safer here!” You continued anyway, tears stinging your eyes as more and more passengers followed suit, as more and more released their hold on the railing.

“Safe?” A man only a few yards away from you laughed darkly, choked around a sob, “How can any of us be safe? We’re all dead men, every last one of us.”

“Sir please, you must have hope, we must all have hope.” Rose cried, and oh how she was strong, how she was so brave and good and strong, to even in these bleakest hours still hold hope.

“Hope? The ship is sinking dearie, there isn’t any hope left at all – ” And that was all the man had to say, before someone above him let go of the railing for some unknown reason, and her body came knocking into him, bringing them both under the water with a splash.

You huddled closer to your husband, pulled Rose closer to you as you noticed that splash was close enough for water to spot onto your cheeks.

“Kylo – Kylo we’re moving faster, the water is coming up faster oh god what do we do what can we do?” Your voice grew high, your breathing came in fast pants, shallow breaths which made you dizzy as you screamed and screamed, the ship lurching crashing breaking – it was breaking beneath you.

“Hold onto something, everyone hold on to anything you can! The funnels will crush you if you’re in the water.” Kylo barked out at the passengers. There was that commanding voice again, you thought as your husband’s military time came rushing up to the surface.

“Do you think anyone sees the ship? Do you think anyone is coming for us? Kylo what if no one comes for us?” You frantically looked around as the stern went higher higher higher, the propellers now lifted fully out into the air.

The lights flickered, and you could not see anything on the horizon, nothing at all.

The ship groaned, the stern rose, water water water, so much water. The funnels were giving way, flares exploded in the sky like great fireworks.

And then the emergency power began to shut off.

“They’re coming, they have to be. Someone has to be.” Kylo said, his own voice betraying him, for he was unsure, you all were.

“There’s not much of the ship left!” You shouted, and oh what an awful sound! What a bone-chilling noise, the ship going under. There was that deep rumble, the cables snapping, the screams the awful screams – were you screaming? You had to be screaming.

And then the emergency power went off entirely, and with it, so did any last restraints the ship had against crumbling completely.

You were plunged into darkness, complete and total, as the stern was now nearly ninety degrees in the air, the bow filled to the limit.

“Kylo!!” You clung to him, as Rose clung to you, as you all clung to the vestiges of life that you could.

“Hold on!” Was all Kylo warned, and the three of you braced yourselves for the unthinkable.

It was silent, for a moment. Or maybe it wasn’t, you didn’t know. You couldn’t tell. Terror washed through you as the ship collapsed in on itself entirely, and there was nothing.

No noise, no screams, no music, no groaning of the Titanic.

There was not a Titanic, not any longer, not with the way it split into two pieces, snapped right in half.

You held on as tightly as you could as the ship tossed and flung you around, the last two funnels sinking down into the depths of the ocean.

“I can’t – I can’t, (Y/N) my hands, I can’t feel my hands.” Rose sobbed, her hold on you slipping as the ship rolled over to one side, began to sinksinksink rapidly, went under you were going under.

“Rose no please,” You begged, tightened your grip, refused to let her go. “Please Rose we’re right here, you have to stay with us.”

“I’m not strong enough, I can’t – I can’t -- !” Her hands slipped out of yours and she fell, screaming until her body smacked against the water.

“Rose!” You reached your arm through the railings at her, your entire body paralyzed with fear.

The ship was moving too quickly, was moving so fast, the water was rising and you began to scream and cry uncontrollably because what else could you do?

“She’ll be alright, (Y/N) I need you to listen to me, she will be alright.” Kylo rambled, talked and talked and talked because the water was coming and you knew he did not want to drown a second time, you didn’t want to drown oh fuck you were going to drown, but Kylo held your hand, and Kylo kept talking, “I have a feeling, I know she’ll survive and she will find us when she does but for now I need you to take a deep breath when I tell you, okay?”

“Kylo I’m so scared.” You sobbed and hiccuped frozen breaths, your lungs surely crystallized with ice, your face numb.

“I know, me too.” Kylo admitted, and you looked at him, took one long last look at him as he kissed you briefly, “We are going under and the ship is going to drag us down so you are going to have to swim, alright? Hold your breath and swim to the surface.”

“Not without you.” You shook your head, tightened your grip on him.

“I’m not letting go of your hand ever again. You’ll have to chop me off.” Kylo held your joined hands up and your chin wobbled as the water came higher only a few yards away – no a few feet away.

“Okay.” You nodded, trusting him implicitly, trusting him with your life as you cried, “Okay – fuck Kylo – okay on the count of three?”

“One,” Kylo said,

“Two,” You looked down into the ocean,

“…Three!”

You expanded your ribs and took in as much air as you could, and braced yourself for the slam of water as it rushed over your heads, as it dragged you down, as it pulled you and the Titanic under the water completely.

                                            ----------------------------

You resisted the urge to scream, somehow. Tossed around upside down which way was up which way was air where were you it was so dark so cold you were so cold.

You and Kylo let go of the railing immediately, but not each other. You weren’t sure if you had the ability to uncurl your hand from around his even if you wanted to – not that you ever did, not that you’d ever let him go again. It was almost surreal being under the water. There were no lights except for a million miles below you, where explosions bloomed from the ship hitting the ocean’s floor.

In this freezing weightless darkness, you wondered if this was what it was like to be up there among the stars. Your body was knocked around and around by waves and people alike, Kylo’s hand yanking you around with him as he too was caught up in the suction.

You could not see the surface, it was too dark. How much further would you have to swim? Were you swimming? You could not feel your body, had no idea if you were kicking your legs, moving your arms.

Your lungs burned burned burned, and you began to panic because which way was up? What if you were swimming deeper, what if you were making it impossible?

Kylo, always Kylo, oh your darling Kylo, pushed your stomach up up up. The life-jacket, you remembered, you were wearing the life-jacket! The air inside it sought the surface! All you had to do was swim in its direction.

Your lungs burned and your throat closed up and the saltwater stung your eyes and froze them over until – until! Your head crashed through the surface and you screamed out a gasp, filled your lungs with air sweet air and not water.

Kylo followed a second after you, pushing the hair out of your face, gasping and laughing laughing laughing. How you wished you could have seen his face, wished you could have looked at those dimples which graced his sweet smile, but it was too dark, and so all you could do was press your forehead against his and laugh with him.

“Holy shit, holy shit we’re not dead!” The utter joy of that statement – of having life in your bodies enough to say it filled you with hope, and you though of Rose, wondered where she might be floating, for she had a life-jacket too.  

“You’re brilliant! Absolutely brilliant, my gorgeous girl.” Kylo laughed as he cupped your cheeks in his hands and kissed you kissed you a thousand times, lips trembling from the cold against your own as your legs kicked keeping you above the surface. “Come, we have to find something to get out of this water.”

“I can’t see anything, it’s so dark, what is there to float on?” You swam with him, blindly in the night.

It was just then that you realized how everything you and Kylo brushed up against, was not a something at all, but rather a someone. People, so many people filled the ocean. With the ship gone, bodies rose to the surface just as you and Kylo had. Some were dead, their weight lolling facedown in the water – but some were not.

You felt a pair of arms wrap around you, push you down so that they might use you as a floatation device for themselves. You choked and sputtered, tried your best to get them away, to get yourself away.

“Hey!” You shouted, your head dunked under the water, gasping when you shoved yourself to the surface, “Get off of me – get the fuck off!”

“Don’t touch her.” Kylo did something to him then, you didn’t know what it was, you couldn’t see. But he did something and you were freed, the arms gone, hands desperately seeking elsewhere.

“I can’t swim!” The man gargled water, but Kylo only yanked you closer to him, fiercely protective of you.

“That’s why you have a life jacket don’t you fucking touch her.” Kylo hissed, and you could only imagine the way the veins in his neck protruded with the effort.

“Kylo please, it’s not worth it, please we have to find something.” You pulled him away from starting an all-out brawl in the ocean. Now was not the time or the place, you didn’t know how much longer you’d be able to stay in water this cold.

                                           ----------------------------

Swimming was not easy while holding hands, but neither of you could bring yourselves to let go, and so you struggled together as your limbs cut through the water. There were too many bodies, too many people clogging the sea, too many thrashing around and screaming and crying, praying to gods with deaf ears, begging for those who would not come.

It felt like days weeks months years that you swam, your limbs so heavy, legs made of lead, arms made of steel, the same which pulled the Titanic down however long ago. But eventually, eventually you brushed up against something that was hard and made of wood, for it floated in the gentle wake of the disaster, and Kylo let out a strangled sound of joy when he slapped a hand atop it to measure its size.  

“Here, look see? See I knew it, I knew it.” He said wetly, throat thick with emotion as he pulled you to the edge of it, “You first, please.”

You grasped across the other edge, and with tremendous effort from your exhausted muscles and the help of your husband’s strong hands on your back, you pulled yourself up onto a long strip of what had to have been paneling. You assumed it was from the explosions which had gone off below you, assumed it was lining of the ship underneath the hull plating, but you had no idea, not really.

It was pitch black still, what time was it? How long had you been in the water? You panicked then, reaching reaching reaching for Kylo.

“I’m up, come there’s room for you too.” You patted the wet wood to illustrate your point.

“No there isn’t, my weight will displace it, the panel will flip.” Kylo was doubtful and you wanted to scream – now was not the time, not the fucking time to be doubtful, not after you’d survived so much.

“Bullshit! Try again, we must try again.” You ordered, and you were sure you’d cry if you had any tears left.

“(Y/N) – ” Kylo started but you were having none of it.

“Try again!” You shouted, voice carrying across the sea as you took matters into your own hands and began yanking him up. “I am not letting you freeze to death in these waters. Try again Kylo, I’m begging you.”

“Wait, I have an idea, do you trust me?” Kylo struggled against your efforts and your face pinched up, exhaustion and blind terror and freezing cold water in the dead of night all creeping into you at once.

“Always Kylo, always.” You said, nodded though he could not see it.

“Give me your life jacket, I’m going to strap it underneath the panel of wood, the buoyancy will help us.” He panted, and you worried, you feared for him.

“Here, here take it, take and hurry, please.” Your hands shook terribly as you undid all the buckles, all the straps. He could not stay in this water any longer, he would die, the hypothermia would kill him and then you – you didn’t even know what you would do.

A weight lifted off your shoulders, both physically and metaphorically as you handed Kylo the vest. You waited with bated breath as he shoved the lifejacket underneath, pulling it across the width of the panel and offering you one of the longest buckles.

“Alright if you hold this strap, and I hold the other, this should keep us afloat.” Kylo said, and you grasped around for it, held it and shuffled over to one edge of the panel to give him room.

He hoisted himself up with impossible strength, and collapsed down onto the panel. It rocked and it tipped but it did not turn over, it did not flip. The life jacket had helped and what a miracle that was! What a fucking miracle.

“See? Do you see? You fit, there’s room for you, you fit.” You beamed, thrilled, laughing, exhausted. “You’re here, and I am here and we are alive, and you fit.”

You reached for him, wondered where his face was. It seemed as though you were lying in opposite directions on the panel, his feet were by your head, and your feet by his. Your hands sought one another immediately, your right clinging to his left.

“You’re right, you’re always right. I should not have doubted you, forgive me.” Kylo laughed too, gave your hand a squeeze.

“Kylo I would forgive you for anything in this moment, but you have nothing to apologize for.” You said sincerely, the joy of his ingenuity dying down from the reality of the situation.

“That’s not true, not when I brought you here, brought you to this nightmare.” He shook his head, turned his face to rest his cheek against your ankle. “If it weren’t for me, you’d be in a comfortable bed somewhere after enjoying a hot cup of tea and perhaps a biscuit or two.”

You sighed then, let out some of the tension you were harboring in your shoulders. It felt good, to relax for a moment. Not that you could really relax, not really. But you were out of the water, and that was something to celebrate.

“When we are out of this mess, I will order the softest bedding and the most expensive tea and we will enjoy it together.” You said, swallowing around a hard lump in your throat, “And we will stay up to watch the sunrise over the countryside, and I will kiss you and all will be well.”

Kylo was quiet then for a moment, a terrifying moment where you feared the worst. But he was still with you, you knew because his hand shook against yours, he trembled and you realized he must be crying quietly. He sniffed and gasped out a sob, and the sound broke your heart.

“I love you, so dearly. Ardently, I adore you.” He said, squeezing your hand, gasping and shaking around the admission. “You must know this, but I’m not sure, I may have not said aloud yet.”

“Don’t do that, don’t say your goodbyes to me, not yet.” Your voice cracked on its own, the hot sting of unshed tears from no water left brimming around your eyelids. How could that be possible, you wondered, there be no water left when you were surrounded by it? “Don’t tell me you love me until we are rescued, do you hear me?”

“I hear you blossom.” Kylo said, laughed at your stubbornness, squeezed your hand and nodded against your ankle, “I hear you.”

                                           ----------------------------

Much time passed.

The screams around you had begun to silence themselves, the shoutscriespleasbegs fading into nothingness. Had you drifted away from the wreckage? Had the current taken you a thousand miles away to shore? You hoped so, hoped that you’d open your eyes and there would be land.

But you knew that could not be, not with New York another three days away at top speed. But the alternative was too chilling to even entertain the thought of. Still, there were people alive out there. You could hear them, though they were far away. Could hear the splashing, the calling for help. Someone blew a whistle. There was not much left to do but wait.

You did not know how much longer you could wait, how much longer this could go on.

Kylo’s breathing had evened out and you wondered if he had fallen asleep. His hand twitched against your own occasionally, and your hand twitched in his, silent reminders that you were both there, you were together.

You thought to yourself, if this was how you went, at least you went together.

“Talk to me blossom.” Kylo said then, awake and alive and needing to prove you were the same.

“It is so d-dark Kylo, and I am so cold.” You shivered, for it was the truth, and you could not lie to your husband, not now, not ever. He valued honesty, and so you told him the truth, “I cannot feel my feet.”

“Wiggle your toes for me, I know you can. Just wiggle them the smallest bit for me.” His voice was soft, and you sighed, because you knew it would be a fruitless endeavor. Still, he nudged your foot with his face, bumped it with his nose to get you to retaliate. You did, nudging your foot against his cheek then, a very small smile tugging at your lips. He kissed your ankle, “Thank you. Thank you, you’re going to be alright, see?”

“Now you, your turn.” You whispered, teeth chattering in the cold the freezing cold. He tried and after great effort, did you feel his foot nudge your cheek too. “Not so easy, hm?”

You lifted yourself up the smallest bit, careful not to disturb the wood paneling which had been doing such a good job of keeping you afloat, and lowered your torso across his legs, trying to warm him, trying to give him any bit of help that you could.

“Must everything be a – ” He shuddered, the cold aching his bones, “—a competition?”

“Only w-w-when I’m winning.” You replied, and he huffed out a little laugh.

Or was it a sigh? You didn’t know.

You were just thankful for it at all.

“It’s starting to grow quiet, can you tell?” You didn’t know if your eyes were open or closed, it was so dark. Even the stars seemed too far away now, they seemed to have lost their shine. “The cries are stopping.”

Kylo’s thumb rubbed soothing circles across the back of your palm.

“It has been a long time, but the lifeboats are doing what they can. They’ll come to us.” He said, believed his own words so much that you almost, almost believed them too.

“What if they don’t?” You asked, because the thought had been plaguing you for some time.

“(Y/N).” Kylo said, a warning.

“I know, but.” You sighed, shivered and froze froze froze in the cold air, your body wet and freezing. Your clothes were stuck together, stiffened from ice. “Kylo…what if they don’t? What shall we do? I cannot fish.”

That got an unexpected laugh out of him, and you were grateful for it. You would have smiled, but you could not feel your face.

“I will teach you when we’re home.” Kylo said, his voice strained as his breath came in puffs. “I’ll teach you how to fish and hunt. I’ll teach you anything I know that you wish to learn.”

“C-can you play any instruments?” You asked, just to keep talking to keep you both talking.

“Yes.” Kylo’s hand shook in yours, his fingers tapped notes onto your palm. “I can play piano and violin and you can sing and we’ll entertain guests and you’ll dazzle them with your charm and I will love you so much.”

“I cannot imagine being without you, my Kylo, my dear Kylo.” Your tears returned, speaking no louder than a whisper because after all the screaming, all the shouting, all you wanted to do was whisper. “I didn’t even hesitate to jump off that lifeboat, you know? I could not bear the thought of being without you.”

“Really?” Kylo asked, and you nodded.

“When I saw Dopheld up on the top deck and you were not with him…something came over me and a fierce protectiveness clawed its way through my very soul. I don’t want to live in a world where you are not there to stand beside me.” You realized then that he did not know Dopheld was alive, that he had gotten on one of the lifeboats.

He reached down down down, bent his body and contorted it in a way that he could press his hand to your cheek instead of tapping the notes out on your palm. He cupped your cheek and warmed your frozen face with blue fingers.

“I have seen god and she wears your face,” He whispered, a secret just for you and the ocean, “That is how much you mean to me.”

“I wish I could kiss you, but I –” You tried to reach for him to, but to your panic your arms would not respond. They were too heavy, they would not lift, and you leaned into his hand, eyes pinched tight, “Kylo I c-c-cannot move.”

“You don’t have to, not right now.” He replied, carding his fingers through your hair, “Just stay alive, stay with me, keep breathing, wiggle your fingers, your toes.”

“I’m so cold.” You wanted to whine, wanted to complain, but the words came out devoid of any emotion, simply a fact stated. You were struggling to put together real sentences, the cold sapping away all ability for anything other than breathing.

“They’re coming for us, I swear to you (Y/N).” Kylo mumbled, his words slurring together with great difficulty too. “You know, when all of this is over and we are in our nice soft bedding with our hot tea, I’m going to call my lawyers and we are going to sue the White Star Line blind. How does that sound?”

“M-m-m-marvelous.” You laughed together, trying desperately to stay together, to stay sane. Had that already flown out the window?

“(Y/N) darling I need you to talk to me, okay?” Kylo continued to card through your hair, the chunks of ice melting underneath his touch. “I cannot see you, it is too dark, you must keep talking to me so I know you’re alright.”

“W-what shall I say?” You whispered, voice raspy, throat shredded up from the crying, the screams, the cold.

“Anything, anything at all, please.” He said, nudging your foot, “Wiggle your toes for me.”

“Are – ” You struggled for a long while to get the words out around your chattering teeth. Your tongue filled your mouth but was so heavy it would not cooperate, you felt like you were made of an anchor, wondered how you managed to stay afloat. “Are we going to have to board a cruise ship back home?”

“No, I’ll charter a private plane for us.” Kylo said straight away, “We won’t ever go on a boat again, after we are rescued.”

It was a promise, and Kylo, oh your Kylo. He never broke a promise.

But then, then you remembered the estate. Remembered how beautiful it was with its yellow brick and sprawling gardens. You remembered flowers, memories of peonies, irises, lavender, delphiniums, edgings of bergenia, and foxgloves filled your vision. You remembered the sun shining and sparkling on water.

“Perhaps,” You were delusional, you had to have been, “Perhaps we may get a small boat, one for the lake.”

“The lake?” Kylo asked, confused as he hugged himself around your legs in the same manner you did his.

“P-p-pond, the pond at home.” You corrected, did your best to explain, did your best to keep talking. “When I saw it, I thought oh how nice it would b-b-b-be, to have a rowboat.”

“Tell me about the pond, (Y/N).” Kylo sighed against you, and you swallowed, swallowed again, tried to get the words to come.

“There were swans, and a willow tree. The branches cascaded down into the water, leaves rippling the surface. Oh I’m so cold, Kylo.” You whispered, eyes closing slowly.

“I know, I know but you will be warm soon.” Kylo combed your hair away and cupped your cheek, pinched and prodded at your flesh so blood could rush there, could keep you alive. “There will be blankets and hot beverages and I will kiss you until the blood returns to your cheeks. I will wash away the frost from your eyelashes with my very hands, but you must tell me more about the pond first.”

Before you could though, something knocked against the side of the panel. It was small and light, rocking atop the water.

“What is that, that noise?” You were curious but terrified at the same time.

“I don’t know, I cannot see. Can you reach it?” Kylo replied, his body mostly on the other end of the panel, leaving it up to you to lean over and fish around for the small object.

“It’s a whistle, it’s come up onto the paneling.” You noted, raising it to your lips with numb fingers. You could not muster your lungs to blow and handed it to Kylo with a sigh, “I-I’m afraid I haven’t the breath.”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry I’m right here.” He raised the whistle to his lips and blew, took in a deep breath and blew out a long steady tone that carried itself across the water, out to lifeboats far far far in the distance. And then, then he struggled to prop himself up just enough to point, “Look – (Y/N) look, do you see it?”

You could see nothing, nothing at all, until – until!

“Are those…?” You gasped, pushed yourself up enough too, disbelief and shock and the thrill of adrenaline and excitement giving you this much, giving you that much energy to prop yourself up just a few inches off the panel.

“Lights, in the distance. We are saved -- oh blossom, we are saved.” Kylo thudded back down onto the wood, blew and blew and blew the whistle.

“Tell me now, tell me how much you love me now.” You demanded.

“You’re so…” He blew into the whistle, took all the strength he had and blew into that damned whistle, signaling the ship, your savior, your rescuer, “Bossy.”

“I am bossy, and you love me.” You coughed and wheezed, your teeth chattering bones rattling. It was so cold, but you were saved, the ship was coming, it was only a little while longer now.

“I do,” Kylo agreed, his stomach rising and falling rapidly, trying to blow the whistle harder, make the sound louder. “I love you more than anything in this whole world. Do you know, my entire life I dreamt of someone like you? In my darkest hours all I asked for, was someone to love me for me.”

“I – I daresay there are no darker hours than these,” Your body trembled, shock taking over you. “And you have me. I love you Kylo, and I am more grateful for you than for the air in my lungs.”

“There was a little girl, her name is Ruth.” He said apropos of nothing, his voice soft. “You should have seen her. She had her eyes.”

“She can come back with us, if she’s got no one left.” You let your eyes close, for there was little to worry about now. “She can come with us and Rose and Dopheld, when we find them. We will all pile into a plane and fly home.”

                                           ----------------------------

The next time you opened your eyes, it was not to darkness.

“The sky is pink.” You whispered, for you had no more strength than that, nothing left in you than that.

Kylo had blown the whistle for what seemed like an eternity, and the sounds of a ship had grown louder and louder. You could hear sailors now, could hear the slap of oars of lifeboats heading towards you. You could hear them shouting, calling, begging for survivors to make themselves known, and Kylo had blown his whistle, and they had heard.

You opened your eyes to a pink sky, the night finally over.

Dawn, a sunrise, a new day.

“That it is.” Kylo agreed, and you struggled to open your eyes, struggled to do anything at all as he continued, “The sun has risen, and we have made it. We just have to wait a little longer. We have waited this long, we can wait a little longer.”

You took in the sights around you, and nausea washed over your brain.

“Kylo…Kylo there are so many people.” You watched as their bodies bobbed like buoys, held afloat only by the lifejackets which in the end, did nothing to save them. A sea of white jackets, a sea of bodies carefully being nudged aside, pushed and pulled by the gentle wake of water, water which claimed them.  

“Keep your eyes up blossom, keep looking up.” Kylo insisted, tried to comfort you, “Look at the sky, watch the sunrise.”

But you realized, if the sun was up, and you could see the bodies and the sky and the water surrounding you, then you could see him too, and you much rather would see him too.

“No, no I want to look at you. I haven’t seen you in so long.” You shuffled around on the piece of wood, which now in the light of day you saw to indeed be a piece of the ship’s side paneling.

“Move a little to the side, and there we are – ” Kylo said, as you both moved yourselves enough to be in full view of the other. He smiled at you, his lips were cracked and his skin was pale but he was smiling at you. “There you are.”

You drank in the sight of him, of his proud nose, his big ears. How you loved those ears, you began to cry, began to cry just at the sight of him smiling at you, looking so young. His suit was dark with water, and his cheeks were sallow, hair clinging in little strands against his forehead.

He was the most magnificent thing you had ever seen.

“You are so handsome, darling.” You whispered, resting your head against his legs and offering him a smile.

Kylo reached down to you, tucked some of your hair behind your ear in the way you had always done for him, looking at you – really looking at you.

“And you are beautiful, beloved.” He whispered right back.

You laughed then, laughed and cried with tears of joy as the sun rose and the lifeboats of the Carpathia made their way to you, pulling survivors out of the Atlantic water. So many had perished, so many would be lost to the sea forever, but somehow, somehow somehow somehow, you would not be one of them.

And while you wait for your rescue, as the sky bloomed into the pinks oranges yellows purple blues of sunrise, all you can do is laugh and smile at your husband, this man who had once been a stranger now seemed the most important thing you held in your heart. Before all of this, you had met three times; the first, an introduction. The second, a lunch. The third, your wedding.

Could such strong bonds be made in such short a time as a honeymoon aboard the ill-fated Titanic?

Yes.

Yes they could.

                                           ----------------------------

                                                    The End.

editta sima relkin ( b. 1896 - d. 1931 ) ; yoysef-yona relkin left impoverished conditions in belorussia in 1886 , at seventeen years old , winding up in austria , working whatever manual labor jobs he could find. a job exporting textiles to neighboring italy allows him to meet elena lissitzkyi , an uprooted artist informally studying the trade , at a marketplace. when the rest of his crew leaves , yoysef decides to stay. he and elena are married in 1890 , yoysef 21 and elena 19 , and six years later their first child , Editta Sima Relkin , is born. editta primarily grows up in an italy in crisis – following it’s unification , there was a very large debt, few natural resources, and almost no transportation or industries , as well as high ratio of poverty and illiteracy. editta herself was taught by her parents , mostly how to work with her hands , to cook and to work with the land , how to sew and to smile her pretty smile like she’s not so keen as to cut , should you try her ; despite their determination , because of living conditions , yoysef & elena , like many others , are unable or unwilling to stay where they are , and make the decision to travel north , towards verona , through where yoysef hoped to return to austria the way he came. however , in july of 1918 , editta meets young soldier jim barnes stationed near lake garda. they were married there , and quickly – she youthfully endeared by his rickety italian and roguish smile and a desperate want to leave.

james barnes , sr. ( b. 1899 - d. 1934 ) ; jim barnes has had his feet firmly planted in the US his entire life – born in greenup , kentucky , he was raised by his paternal grandmother , maighread barnes [ née MacNuyer ] , his father gone off to northwestern canada like many others , and his mother too young to raise a child , really ( she comes around , though , off and on , like a friendly neighbor and he only really knows she’s his mother at all much later ). at his grandmother’s behest , he attended a boy’s school, where he left at age 13 , uninterested , his father’s spark in the back of his head. he’s 18 in 1917 , and he’s eager to the join the military , enlisting where he lands , fresh off the train. he finds himself at camp sherman for training , and then off to europe in june of 1918 – liverpool to southampton to france and turned around to italy. his regiment was first stationed near lake garda , where they were to train in methods of warfare suitable for the difficult mountain terrain. it is here , while her family is rounding the eastern bank of the lake on their way to verona , that jim meets editta. war brides were hardly uncommon , and he wouldn’t call her that , even if she fit under the umbrella. he can hardly speak italian , but she’s caught him , and though her parents are weary and wary , more than anything they want their daughter out of italy , so they smile and approve , and it’s no time at all before she’s off on a ship with so many other girls from across europe. — 01. When Editta comes through Ellis Island with all the other soldier’s girls ,  the first thing she does is westernize her name. Editta Sima Relkin becomes Edith Barnes – Eydie , if you’re a friend , and she smiles with her mouth closed , even though it’s a struggle to pry herself away from New York at all. see , Jim has got his daddy’s mind for bigger and better , and he’s got this whole idea about traveling westward , like something out of a novel , but mostly this means that they’ve ended up in the dusty foothills by 1919. 02. Jim doesn’t leave the army. he could have , but the fact of the matter is he’d only been in for two years , and it doesn’t feel like enough. it’s not that he’d enjoyed the fighting , exactly , but he’s only ever done odd jobs his whole life , and now that he’s got – that he’s hoping to have – a family to support , he’s not going to give up a steady pay. ( a decision they both would come to find as a relief , soon enough , when the army starts handing out pity jobs to struggling men during the Depression. ) 03. Eydie mostly refuses to speak English – she knows it , sure , being exposed to it on all sides , but it’s a little bit of pride and a stubbornness she’d learned from her own mother , like Jim was her hard limit. smiles sweetly at the Catholic church ladies that knock on their door , No, mi dispiace , ma non lo parlo. Jim mostly tells her to play nice , but she knows better – he likes well enough when she speaks italian. they’ve got their own sort of lingo , a back and forth mismatch of languages. 04. While it would maybe be easier to allow their family to wholly assimilate , the fact of the matter is Jim hasn’t been especially interested in the church since before he left home , and is more than content with the Barnes’ being a generally Jewish household. not that it would have mattered because that’s something Eydie wasn’t very willing to budge on. Jim primarily remained a more passive participant but was never wholly uninvolved. 06. Jim had an expansive imagination – he was always dreaming of going somewhere. something of an optimist , which Eydie found endearing , if sometimes frustrating. he was always half - way invested in the concept of simply travelling their entire lives – let’s pack up to California , to New York , to Texas or Arizona or Mexico , we could raise the kids in the backseat. Eydie was always a little more grounded , craved a stability that she’d never quite had when she was younger , wanted guarantees that her children would have , so they stayed , even if it wasn’t quite where either wanted ; Portsmouth was something of a middle ground. 07. Eydie’s death was both sudden and unexplained – no illness or known conditions as a precursor – and all the heavier on the family for it. while Jim had been toying with the idea of pulling out of the service , finally , almost 14 years under his belt , he instead turns to using it as a retreat. while he was never cruel to his children , or intentionally cold , his demeanor had noticeably shifted after his wife’s death. just three years after , Jim is killed during a parachuting exercise at Camp Lehigh.
