I woke up. I am on the Disney Cruise with my family. My stepmom, Tamara, my two sisters, Taylor and Mercy, and my brother, Christopher, accompany me on this vacation. It was the second day on the cruise. Last night, my brother got my stepmom drunk and we ordered everything on the room service menu. Well, at least everything that was free. Bowl of fruit, sandwich and chips, cookies and ice cream, you name it, and it was in our room. We ate most of it and some was left on the counter in the morning. There was still two cookies left. We left them there, as we embarked on our journey through the cruise. I took my Key-To-The-World card and left. I walked Mercy to her kids group, "I'm perfectly capable of going on my own!" coming from her every once in awhile.

After I left her in her group, I went to the schedule for today. As I looked, there wasn't anything fun going on in the teen group. I was 17 at the time and wasn't allowed to do the adult exclusive activities on the ship even though I would be 18 in two weeks. I looked at the theater, and Thor was showing in a few minutes. I decided since there was nothing else to do, I'd go weatch the new Thor movie.

Once the movie was over, I walked back to the room and found that everyone was there. Even Mercy was there. They looked at who opened the door. Christopher was the first to talk.

"Oh, it's just Ray." I scowled.

"Nice to see you missed me too, c***-sucker!" I said sarcastically. Tamara looked at me stern.

"Ray, this is a Disney Cruise! You can't just start cussing!"

"Oh, relax! It's just us in our room." I tried to calm her down and it worked. Taylor spoke up next.

"We were waiting for more room service. We thought you were room service."

"Lunch?" I asked. She nodded. Mercy smiled.

"Look!" She pointed to the balcony door. She wheeled her way over and Chris opened the door for her. "Look how many seagulls there are!" All of us were out there now except for Tamara. There was a Carnival Cruise right next to us and the seagulls were crowding around certain people that were feeding the birds. "I want to feed them!" Mercy shouted. Taylor went inside and came back out with a french fry from last night. She held it out but not a single bird came. I rolled my eyes. Those birds were not going to come over here for one french fry. Finally, Taylor just tossed the french fry into the ocean.

"Taylor! Why'd you throw it?" Chris asked. Taylor looked at him.

"Incentive. If they get it from the ocean, they'll come for more." We looked down and eventually, two birds ate the french fry. Then, as Taylor predicted, birds started coming to our balcony. Taylor looked around. "Oh, crap." I looked over to her to see her looking at all the birds with an expression that didn't mirror Mercy's happier one.

"What?" I asked her. She faced us.

"That was the last french fry. We have nothing to feed to them!" Chris went back into the room and me and Mercy just stared at the birds. Chris came back out holding something.

"We don't care if they die, do we?" My eyes shot open.

"What are you doing?" I faced him and he was holding a chocolate chip cookie with a bite in it. He broke the cookie into peices and gave one to me, Mercy and Taylor. Taylor quickly let her peice fly into the beak of a seagull passing her then she went back inside. I looked at her retreating form wondering what she was doing. She came back out with her (expensive, might I add,) camera and told him to hold out my peice further so she couuld get a few photos. A bird snatched the peice from myt hand and Taylor got a few shots. We finished feeding them and walked back inside. I shut the door when a thought came to me.

"That was so much fun!...Wait a minute, was that my cookie?"
