Chapter 1~The Beginnings
Jack Sparrow watched the setting sun as he steered The Black Pearl through the open ocean. He was thinking.Will and Elizabeth had ended up perfectly, why couldn't he find that special someone? He had tried, honestly, he did, but they all ended up being one night stands that turned horribly wrong.
Annamaria knew him well enough to not sleep with him as he attempted to succeed in his search, Jack did try, being drunk all the time didn't help either though. Neither did the fact that he had mostly slept with the prostitutes in Tortuga who never heard of the word "faithful".
"Well, Jack.There's someone out there for everyone so keep a sharp eye and you will know when you've found her." Will Turner had once told Jack when they were together on the search for Elizabeth 2 years ago. Captain Sparrow hung on to those wise words dearly for he believed in them.
Although most thought Sparrow and his crew raided the seas searching for lost treasure and destroying towns for the sheer joy of it, but Will, Elizabeth, Gibbs, and Annamaria knew that secretly Jack was searching for that girl.the girl that would take his breath away at the sight of her, the girl that would make his hair stand on end when she touched him, the girl that..
"Cap'n!" Annamaria Yelled from the port side of the Pearl.
Jack snapped out of his thoughts and looked in the direction of the call.
"Aye?"
" The Royale Navy ship "Majestic" is gainin' on us! She's not a fightinh' ship Cap'n, we can send her down to Davy Jones Locker sure enough!"
"Alrigh' then. Come on you lot! You 'eard the Lady, Run out the cannons! Hoist the flag! We're in for a sinkin'!"
*** (present day) Megan Daniels dropped her bookbag on the floor by the bed. Grade 12 was harder than she had expected. Finals were in 3 weeks and her college applications were due in 2. She turned up her music (Linkin Park) and took out her notebook.
Her friends and relatives always envied Megan's skill of lyric writing, she didn't know how she did it really, the words just kind of popped up in her head. As she was writing the very last line of her latest headbanger song called "Rebellion" here little sister Amy barged in her room.
"Sissy. Mom says you gotta go talk to her" the 9 year oldsaid looking around her room.
"Amy tell her I'm busy" Megan said not looking up.
"She says now." The kid answered matter-of-factly.
"oh god" She soon 18 year old mutters as she put her notebook under her mattress getting up.
Her mother had probably found out about her belly. Two weeks ago Megan got her bellybutton pierced behind her parent's back. Her Dad wouldn't mind, he was cool, but her mom acted like Megan was still 12. This is going to be bad she thought as she slowly came down the spiral stairs into the kitchen.
"You wanted to see me mom?" Megan asked trying to look innocent.
Megans mother, named Meredith, was a goodlooking woman for being 45, she had long sandy brown hair that fell just below her shoulders, and a good looking body that had helped begin home lots of guys half her age since she and her husband Andrew had been divorced. But today, Meredith looked her age, her hair was frazzled, her makeup was almost all of and her face was sagging.
"Explain." She said through her tight lips.
"Explain what?" Megan questioned dully.
"Explain THIS." Her mother raised her voice as she walked over and pulled up Megan's "antiprep" tank top, revealing the bellybutton ring that had a sun hanging off of it.
"Oh. Explain that" Megan answered crestfallen. She had hoped that her mother had not found out about the piercing.
"Yes. Please. Do" Meredith looked as if she was about to explode.
"well you see mom."
After a half an hour of the two women screaming back and forth to eachother, Megan stomped off to her room and plopped on her bed. It wasn't fair. Just because she did something so small that EVERYONE was doing, her mother had grounded her for a month.that meant no phone calls, no sports.that meant that she wouldn't be able to go to her first month of soccer season, no friends over. She had to come home RIGHT after school and do her homework and be watched by her mother for 30 friggin days. This SUCKED.
Amy knocked on the door ever so lightly.
"Go away Amy" The angry teen snarled.
"Mom told me to say that no birthday party tomorrow either" The child said quietly.
"GOD!" Megan screeched and threw her pillow at the wall.
She was so pissed off that she ididn't noticed the little girl sneak into the room until she was standing right beside her.
"Sis, I'm sorry." Amy said sadly, tears brewing in her eyes.
"no , Amy it's not you it's my god forsaken mother"
"sis..in your notebook there's a song called "The One".what does it mean?"
Megan thought for a second. Oh yeah, she had read the song to Amy once she had finished writing it.
"well, Amy. Once you get a little older, and have your heart broken a few times, you set out on a search. A search for that perfect guy who you were destined to be with." Seeing the confused look in the little girls eyes, Megan quickly added, "destined means meant to be. I'm in the middle of that search right now. I always say There's plenty of fish in the sea and out there is one for me"
"oh. Well im going to help mommy make some cookies. Bye" the little girl wandered out of the room.
Megan sighed and layed back. Her long,wavy black hair spread across the pillow. Megan had written that song when she was heartbroken when she found out her boyfriend was cheating on her. She HAD to find that one special guy. She knew he was out there..but where?
