Un-Expected Truths
Chapter One: Going Home
Shyla watched the ocean as it passed the ship. Leaning against the railing, she had a smile plastered on her face. It was her favorite thing to watch, the ocean hitting up against the ship spraying her, and letting her soak the waters, and the smell in.
It had been one whole year since she had last seen her father or Port Royal for that matter. Jack was a great lover and a protective man all the same. He wouldn't really let her out of his site for fear of losing her. She knew that that would never happen, but yet it was fun to watch him go on like he did.
She felt a pair of arms encircle her waist, and she smiled. Leaning into the man's chest she felt the arms tighten around her.
"You know, you look beautiful standing there." He said. She smiled.
"You always tell me that, Jack." She said. He chuckled.
"Yes, but I can't help but want to tell you more, and more every day, love." He said. She turned around and looked up into his dark orbs.
"I know." She answered.
"Is something wrong, Shyla?" he asked. This caused her to sigh and look back out at the ocean.
"Jack…I-I don't know if I should keep running from them. I mean, maybe I should go visit them. Aye?" she asked, and looked up into his eyes. He had his eyes narrowed and looked to be thinking.
"Aye…if you say so, love." He said, his voice a little, unknown, and undecided. She looked away from him knowing where this was going to go. They had talked about this more than once, and it always ended with him being upset, sometimes he would be more than upset and get absolutely drunk.
"Jack, I won't go if you don't want me to." She said, looking down then to him. He smirked.
"Then it's settled, aye, we won't go." He said walking away. She rolled her eyes.
"Jack! It's my family. Can you honestly not want me to see them?" she asked, while looking and yelling at him. He stopped mid-step rolled his eyes, you could tell by the way he was standing.
She rolled her eyes at his antics. He turned around; the crew members that were around them knew not to watch, thanks to last time. Jack walked back over to her and opened and closed his mouth.
"Don't even Jack, I don't want to argue about this. All I want to do is go see my father and my sister. How hard can that be?" she asked, he sighed.
"That's exactly it. It's hard, unbelievably hard. If I get caught, I'll get hanged, and if you get caught, then you'll get hurt. I won't have you getting hurt, not again." He said. She rolled her eyes and stomped her foot. This was the last straw.
"We are going to see my family, weather you like it or not. Or else…I'll get rid of the rum." She said. His eyes widen and his mouth opened.
"You wouldn't?" he said, daring her with his tone. She nodded.
"Oh, but I would."
"Fine…fine…" he said and paused. She smiled; he had a not so happy face on.
"Get rid of the rum. I don't care, I wont have you getting hurt, Shyla. Not again!" he yelled. Her smile faltered, she blinked. Did he…he just…Oh. My. Gosh! That stupid, pirate! She thought and looked at him. Even his crew members were looking at him surprised. (Hmmm…way OOC for Jack, but…hey my story, my…well…rules…mwuahahahaha! cough, cough)
"What? Why is everyone looking at me like that? Yes, get rid of the rum if we don't go. It's not important to me as much as you are, Shyla." He said, looking to everyone then to her. She blinked.
"Jack, Please. Take me home. I want to see them." She said quietly looking down at the ships floor…deck thing. She heard him sigh, and felt his hands on her shoulder.
"If it's that important to you, love. Then we'll go." He said, she looked up at him and smiled, with a nod. He turned around and gave orders to go to Port Royal.
(In the Cabin)
It had been a couple of days since then, neither Jack nor Shyla talked to each other. Shyla had begun to get sick to her stomach, why, she didn't know. Maybe it was from being nervous, excited, anxious, who knows. But her stomach was flipping every five seconds. Sighing she walked into the Captain's Cabin, and laid down on the bed. She wasn't feeling so well. Lying down, she pulled the covers over herself and snuggled into the pillow, falling asleep.
Jack walked into the cabin, thinking about the whole Port Royal thing. He walked in not noticing the woman lying on the bed. He looked at the desk he got out his handy dandy bottle of rum. (Handy dandy…reminds me of BLUE'S CLUES yay! .;) Taking out the stopper (is that what it's called?) he took a drink. Setting the bottle down, he looked around the room, until his eyes landed on the little lady that plagued his mind.
He just looked on and watched her as she slept. A smile coming to his lips. He got up and walked over to her, swiftly moving a strand of light brownish-blonde hair out of her face. He sat down on the edge of the bed and lent down and kissed her forehead.
"Sorry, love. I just don't want you to get hurt. I promised you that I would protect you, and I shall." He whispered to her, causing a smile to come to her lips.
He took off his boots, jacket, vest, and shirt then crawled in behind her. After all he told the boys to wake him when they arrived at the destination.
(Next Morning)
Opening her eyes, Shyla tried to turn but found the task impossible. Reason why, a warm arm was around her waist. She looked down and seen the tanned evilness, and smiled. Looking next to her, she saw the man that was taking her home. Giving it her all, she turned to face him and watched as he slept. Which it wasn't long until he opened up his eyes.
"Hey." He said, groggily.
"Hey, back." She answered, with a smile.
They sat, well laid there looking at each other. He brought up his hand and traced her jaw line with his forefinger. She only smiled. He brought his hand up and moved the brownish/blonde strand of hair out of her face once more. Tucking it behind her ear, she just laid there, letting him, waiting to see what he would say.
"Sorry about the fit. I just don't want you to get hurt." He said, looking her in the eyes. She just smiled and nodded.
"I understand, but, what makes you think my father would let them hurt me, Jack?" she asked. He shrugged.
"Never know, love. You never know. Now, come on get dressed, we might be close to that dreadful lovely place, aye." He said getting up and putting the cloths he took off last night back on.
She followed, putting on a simple pair of gray/blue pants, boots, a shirt, a purple vest, and a hair tie to hold her hair down. Walking out of the cabin and onto the deck, she looked out at the ocean and smiled. She noticed the city of Port Royal just off shore. It wouldn't be long until they got there now, she knew it.
I know this is a short chappy, and I sorry so no killy...kay? kay. But, now here is the good thing! YAY! Ok, I'm going to be holding a voting, or a race sort of thing. The FIRST person to write to this gets to be the surprise person, who will be falling madly in love with William Turner and him with her! So, what I need for you to do, if you want it to be you, is I need to know what your like. (personality, looks, favorite things (a few), yea...you get the idea!) So, the first person to reply to this, is who gets to be the surprise character! Have fun and good luck!
Until next time (which will have the surprise character in it)
