Sorry about the Hiatus thing. School started and I've just been not thinking about writing at all.
Jack had been gone from Port Kim for three months now and Lillian was taking it hard. She was lonely without Jack. She did, however, make friends with the new girl in town, Amy. Amy was outgoing and had blond wavy hair that went to the middle of her back. Her eyes were brown and she was petite. Amy was perfect for the job of always taking Jack off of Lillian's mind. Lillian had told Amy everything and though Amy thought it was all very sweet, she would not let Lillian mope around. It wasn't until one warm day in June that Amy could no longer keep Jack off Lillian's mind.
Lillian and Amy were climbing on some rocks by the ocean when the mail boy Nathaniel came running towards them.
"Ms. Brandon! Ms. Brandon! I have a letter for you!" Lillian looked at Amy surprised and jumped off of her rock. Nathaniel gave her the letter and waited to see her expression.

Lillian gasped and beamed at Amy.
"It's from Jack." Amy smiled at the news and watched Lillian open her letter.
It read:
Dear Lily,
Now that you have gotten this letter I will estimate my return time is one or two days. The first thing I will do when I get to Port Kim is find you and give you a big kiss. I will see you when I get there.
Love,
Jack Sparrow
Lillian inwardly screamed in excitement and told Amy everything. She was going to be ready for Jack. That day she bought herself a new dress, some powder for her face, and lip stain.

It was the day Jack was supposed to be returning and Lillian jumped out of bed with a smile. In her nightgown, she skipped downstairs happily but stopped suddenly when she saw her Aunt, her Uncle, and Amy sitting at the kitchen table quietly.
"What happened?" Her smiled faltered a little. She hoped that one of her relatives hadn't passed. Amy was the first one to look up at her as she slid Lillian the daily Gazetteer. There was a drawing of a burning ship on the cover. There had been a shipwreck. Lillian looked into the eyes of her family and knew it was Jack whose ship had wrecked. Lillian plopped sadly into a chair and immediately put her head in her hands as sobs rocked her body. She felt arms wrap around her, trying to comfort her but nothing could comfort her, her love was gone, forever.
I know it's short but review anyways!
