Disclaimer: As always I don't own anyone you recognize from the original movie.

I dedicate this story to MusicalLife17 because without her I wouldn't have a title.

Claire: Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. You shall see. This chapter is a little...uhm....what could you call it? Different. Hope you like it.

M-Anne94: Your reviews always make me happy. A million stars? Yay! I feel good now. Anyways, here's the next chapter. Tell me what you think.

Here you go. :) Enjoy. R&R.

It was my friend who thought he could just waltz on back and cure everything. He was wrong. I couldn't even count the number of times he had tried to do that. He was a selfish bastard. All he wanted was to be able to say that he had a friend like me. I could feel my body turning around to face him. My eyes never met his, my hand just whipped up slapping him across the face. As I stormed off into Jack's cabin he followed me. It was as if he couldn't get enough of me; almost like I was his fix. Couldn't he just leave me alone?

A year would be nice. I was getting sick of him. His coming back was just making me feel worse. He was reminding me of my past, which was reminding me of my daughter. I slapped him across the face again as I rushed past him back into Jack's cabin. There was a knock on the door as it was pushed open. Jack sat down on the bed and took my hand in his.

"I'll have Anamaria take care of him. Ye don't worry love." Jack explained as his other arm around my waist.

"Don't let her hurt him."

"What? I thought ye wanted to get rid of him?"

"I do. But not right now, okay?"

Jack nodded holding me tighter. It was weird. I had slapped him. I should have been mad at him. I wasn't. I had the sudden urge to leap out of Jack's arms and hug him. I needed somewhere to go, a way to let go. He seemed like the perfect option. My face turned to Jack.

"Can we dock somewhere? I need to get off this ship."

"Of course love. Where do ye want to go?"

"Anywhere, just get me off this ship."

Jack nodded leaving the cabin. I fell backwards onto the bed in deep thought. What was I getting myself into? What was I even thinking? Why did Sam seem like the perfect option? Why did this even cross my mind? My feet jumped onto the floor and made their way over to the door. Pushing it open I saw Sam standing against the edge of the ship looking out at sea. Slowly I walked over to him and rested my arms on the edge.

"I…uh…I'm sorry I slapped you." I said not even looking at him.

"No, don't apologize. I deserved it."

"No, you didn't. You were always here for me I just never realized it."

"Bryn, I betrayed you, how does that make me always here?"

"You always came back, that's why."

"I came back because I loved you. I wanted you to forget about Jack and be with me."

"I know."

"Then what's your problem?"

"I asked Jack if we could dock somewhere so I could get off the ship. Will you take a walk with me?"

"Of course."

I smiled and looked up at Jack. He nodded as he pulled the ship into the nearest dock.

"Gents, we're docking here for a few hours. I need to get me some rum." Jack shouted at the crew.

The crew all smiled and rushed off the ship. I gestured for Sam to follow me. He did. We snuck off the ship before Jack could see. I wanted to take Sam to a bar, to sit and talk. There were two in the area; The Green Spice Cat and Purple Flamingos. Jack was most likely to go to the Green Spice Cat; it was closer. I took hold of Sam's hand and pulled him into the Purple Flamingos. There weren't many people in there, but at that moment it didn't matter to me.

"Want a drink?" I asked Sam smiling.

He nodded and I ordered two rums. We drank our drinks slowly as we talked. I wasn't sure what we were talking about exactly, we changed topics every few minutes. Putting the mug on the bar I smiled. Sam placed his next to mine and tilted his head sideways wondering why I was smiling. He smiled back hesitantly. I took hold of his hand and dragged him over to the other side of the bar.

"1 please." I said to the woman standing at the doors.

She passed me a key, I unlocked the lock and pulled Sam inside with me. The door was then locked and the key thrown to the ground.

"Bryn, what are we doing here?"

I didn't say anything. I just pushed him up against the wall and trailed my finger down his arm.

"Bryn, what are you doing?"

I put my finger on his lips and giggled. Leaning in forwards I pressed my lips against his. He pushed me away forcefully.

"What are you doing?"

"Kissing you."

"You do realize you're tipsy right?"

"Yeah, just shut up and kiss me."

Sam didn't say anything to that. He just pulled me back towards him and crashed his lips against mine. His arms were around my waist immediately pulling me directly up against his body. His tongue caressed my lips begging to be let in. He was granted it intertwining his with mine. My hands were around his neck and in his hair. He smiled into the kiss as he walked back towards the bed pushing me down onto it. He broke the kiss and began fumbling with my sash knot. My hands were up at his chest unbuttoning his shirt. As I pulled it off I giggled pushing his hands away from the knot. I untie it and threw it on the floor along with his shirt. My hands traced his stomach while he pulled off my vest and shirt. His hands were around my back untying the knots in my corset and my hands down at his pants pulling them off.

After pulling my corset off he fumbled with the button on my pants finally yanking them off throwing them on the floor with all the other clothes. He leaned down kissing me forcefully again before entering me. His lips never left mine as he trusted in me. I began moving with him deepening the kiss letting my tongue explore his entire mouth. He moved gently trying not to hurt me. I let out a loud moan making him moan as well. He continued to move as I kept in time with him kissing his lips and neck hungrily. He pulled out and laid next to me breathing heavily.

"That's what I've been missing? You've got to be kidding."

Sam laughed, "Come here."

I grinned moving closer to him kissing his lips lightly. Snuggling up to him made me feel safe. I had my escape. He was there for me when I needed him.

"I told you."

"You told me what?"

"You would be here for me when I needed you."

"Indeed I am. Now be quiet and kiss me again."

I nodded crashing my lips on his as he rolled on top of me again entering me slower this time. The room was filled with groaning and moaning giving me the escape I finally needed. Neither of us wanted to stop, neither of us had the willpower until there was a knock on the door. He stopped moving in me and turned to face the door. Quickly he pulled away and sat staring at the door. He looked back at me, worried.

A cliffhanger... Hehe, as always. Sorry, I had to do it.
