Mistake At Sea


I made a mistake on the last night of my cruise vacation once, back when I was about 15 or 16. My parents told me to come to the room around 11-12:00; they also told me not to go into anyone else's room either. So my friend Taylor and I went to the club then got sick of it ad went to chill with our friends in one of their rooms. Taylor left me and went back to the club, but I was sick of it and stayed in the room. We were chilling in the room talking and joking and what not and lost track of time. I finally got service back in my cell phone after not having any from being out at sea. It was beeping like crazy telling me that I had about 9 voicemail messages. I realized they were from my parents telling me I would be in big trouble when they found me. I quickly left the room and ran back to mine and I ran into my dad on the way back who looked worried and then furious when he saw me. Apparently they thought I was kidnapped or killed or something and thrown overboard because I was MIA (to what I thought was only 1:00) but in reality it was 5-6:00am. They sent out my picture and had the whole cruise staff looking for me, and Taylor wouldn't tell them where I was because he was mad that I didn't want to go back to the club. I made the mistake of not caring about my rules and curfew my parents set for me. I was grounded for 2 weeks after we got home, but they were more happy that I was alive and safe rather than being mad that I didn't listen to them.
