PROLOUGE
Rose's body swayed back and forth with the water. The sun shines directly in her face as she opens her eyes. She lay still recalling the horrific events from the previous night. "Jack... Jack... Jack..." echoed in her head so much it made her skull throb. Rose finally got the energy to sit up. She took in her surroundings. She saw nurses and other people walking around. They all had the same expression on their faces. Faces with no names. Sad, lonely, angry. "Jack... Jack.. I'LL NEVER LET GO... THIS WHERE WE FIRST MET... I LOVE YOU!" these memories floated around in her head to the point of making her vomit.
"Are you alright, miss?" A nurse looked at her with caring eyes and a concerned expression. Rose just nodded her away. "Jack... Jack..." replayed in her head until she finally said his name softly, feeling so much better...lighter. She felt a wave of determination and despiration wash over her. She began to frantically search the boat for him, picking up speed. "Jack! Jack!" Rose felt she was screaming but she was only making tiny squeaks. Her head was spinning and she began to sob hysterically. She couldn't go on searching. She wouldn't find him even if she searched the whole Atlantic Ocean. Dazed, she turned to walk away but ran into a man.
"Excuse me, sir! Watch where you're-" It was Cal. The one man she loathed most. His eyes were red and puffy and his his face was drained of all color leaving him pasty white. His lips were chapped and pale. This wasn't the man Rose once knew. This man was broken.
"Rose?" Cal whispered hoarsely, his voice cracking. He was so glad to see her. He wanted to kiss her, touch her soft face and never let her go. But, he also wanted to slap her. That slut.
"Cal, have you seen-"
"No,I haven't seen Jack." he replied sharply. His expression stone hard. Rose's face drained of any color that had been left, if any. The memories of him swirled in her mind, making cry once again. Cal couldn't stand seeing her this way. So... misrible. He opened his arms embracing her lightly, stroking her matted hair. Rose struggled to get away, but Cal held her tighter.
"I'm sorry Rose." he murmured softly in her ear hoping Rose would forgive him at least to some degree. Then all of a sudden Cal tensed up. Astonishingly enough, Rose was hugging him back. She was clinging him for dear life. After all, Cal was all Rose had left. Rose began to stop sobbing and her blue, puffy eyes sparkled. A smile tugged at her lips. Cal wanted to say he loved her. Just whispering those words to her, they could make her believe. But, juat before he could, she collapsed to the ground. Cal picked her up off the hard, cold deck laying her on a blanket. He stared at her colorless face talking to himself saying "Oh god, please don't let her die!" He stood guard over her and prayed a near by doctor would come by. While his eyes searched of a doctor he spotted a man with blonde hair and puffy blue eyes. "Couldn't be." thought Cal. " PLEASE LISTEN! I NEED TO FIND HER! I NEED TO FIND ROSE!" Cal's eyes widened as the nurses took Jack away. Rose made a whimper sound. Cal made sure she was still asleep. Cal vowed to protect Rose and treasure her, without Jack Dawson's help.
