Authors Note:
Trial Run for this story. I'll see how people like the first chapter or two…this is an idea I've had for a while…and I decided I'd see how it works. All of these are going to be in simple letter format between Davey Jones and his love…before he went all fishy…(I'm sure you all know who his 'love' is, and if not, you'll find out later.)And I apologize for the shortness…they should get longer with time.(492 words…XP Bah.)
My Dearest Love,
I am sorry I have not been there to hold you in my arms. How many times I have longed for the warmth of your touch, and how many times I have closed my eyes and seen your face; they have been uncountable. I miss you dearly, but every night I play the music box you gave me. It helps me to sleep…and I dream about you.
I tell the rest of the crew stories about you. Many of them wish they could see you as well. I tell them they will see you once we make port, and all of this helps to ease the loneliness all of us feel. Most of us have love's that we left on land to be at sea, and most of us regret that decision—but I doubt any of them regret it so much as I do. The pain of heartache is nearly unbearable. I miss you more than I thought I could miss anything else.
The captain says that we should make port very soon, within the next few months of our journey. We have set a course and are on our way home now. The sky is clear and bright, and the crew's spirits are very high. Each and every one of us look forward to seeing those we left behind. The thought of seeing you once more makes even the gloomiest day bright again. I cannot wait to see you once more, and to hold you in my arms.
You have been my love for so long, I believe it's been four years. Four long years, yet I have only been there to see you for three. But even in this year that we have been apart, our feelings grow strong. My love, I believe it is a sign of God himself that we are able to keep our love strong throughout my period of absence. My dearest, I wish for you to marry me.
Four years and we are still as deeply in love as when we first met. If you would agree, you would make me the happiest man to have ever been born. In the stories I tell them, I've spoken about asking your hand in marriage. Some of them voice their envy. Some of them are happy for me. Most of them are happy for me. I only wish I could be with you in person to make my proposal.
I miss you greatly,
Davey Jones
