Chapter Two
Jack POV
I never thought a sinking ship would save me from getting shot. It if wasn't for the panicked passenger that ran into Lovejoy I wouldn't have been able to trip him into the water and getaway. I threw the gun into the water leaving Lovejoy scattering to get up. Someone would've probably shot him if they were in my position, but I don't have the heart to shoot someone.
Now I was laying across a wooden door in the middle of the ocean. The screams had finally died down, and I thought I wasn't going to make it. I cold, tired, and my body felt so frozen I could barely move. It if wasn't for me counting the stars I probably would be asleep by now. A flash of light crossed my face, so it was surprising to see it. I havn't seen anything brighter than the stars for the last half hour. I turned to face where it was coming from, voices were shouting. I couldn't make out what they were saying; I just knew they were the rescue boats.
I forced myself to roll off and swim to them. One person flashed the light in my face and they rowed toward me. When I was pulled onto the boat and wrapped tightly in a blanket. I could only think of Rose, and that we'll soon be together.
Rose POV
"Come Josephine in my flying machine going up she goes... up she goes..." I sighed. Almost crying thinking Jack isn't going to make it there was no way he was. The screams of the passengers were gone. They were all gone, and they probably took Jack with them. I layed my head down on a bench closed my eyes and fell asleep. I thought of the last two days I had with Jack, and that I will treasure them in my heart. It was just yesterday he was escorting me back to first class deck; after we had gone to that party. This evening he drew that beautiful portrait of me, and the best moment of my life right after it happened. We were just two young kids on a enourmus ship.
"Miss," someone poked, "are you okay?"
I opened my eyes a little to a woman with two duaghters. I nodded, "I'm fine; just tired."
She nodded back, "aye we all are."
I sat up when I sae Officer Lowe return I opened my mouth and asked, "how many did you find?"
Lowe looked sad, "only six."
I looked at the bodies laying around the boat; I couldn't recognize anybody. I layed back down, there was no way Jack was in there. There were only six people out of all those people that went into the ocean. What were the possiblities that Jack would be one of them. I closed my eyes, I shouldn't have left him there with Cal. He probably did something to him.
I hugged the blanket tightly, I hope I never see Cal again. I let out a loud sob, and the woman next to me rubs my arm. "Its alright miss everything will be alright." I open my eyes and thank the woman. When I close them again I don't open it for a long time.
Jack POV
When morning comes I look up to see a ship much like Titanic. Only it was the Carapathia. We've been rescued, and soon we will be on dry land. Soon I will be able to see Rose. Once I'm on the ship I'm handed a bowl of hot soup like every one else. I take it and look around for Rose. Someone grabs me by the shoulder. "Were you one of the ones in the water."
I nod my head, but not to fast I stll felt dizzy.
"Well we need to take you to get checked."
"Can it wait I need to find someone," I say. I need Rose to know that I'm alright, and that I survived just like I said I would. I promised her I would, and I don't want to break it.
The doctor lead me away without much effort, since I didn't have enough stretgh to fight. "We'll let anyone who asks for you know that you're alive," he promises.
"Let Rose Dewitt Bukatar know I'm fine."
"Is she your wife?"
I grin despite the pouding in my head, "I would love her to be." I look over to him and also tell him, "oh and my friends Thomas Ryan and Frabrizio De Rossi please."
The doctor nodded and lead me into a room. I saw a few more people in there, "they were also found in the ocean." He cocked his head, "we just need to know who is fine and who isn't."
I nodded and layed in a warm bed, I close my eyes feeling the comfert of it. "Once you're done may I go?"
"That depends if your well enough."
