The next morning Rose woke up on top of Jack. When she saw Jack an instant smile came upon her face. His arms were tightly wrapped around her body. Rose felt so comforted in his strong arms. After Jack had asked her to marry him they had gone straight to her bedroom. They were both tired and had fallen asleep holding each other. When she was with Jack, she felt like she was the most special girl in the whole world.

She laid her head back upon his shoulder and snuggled closer to him. At some point she felt like she was sorry for Sally, but on the other hand she was glad that Jack had chosen for her. She didn't have to hold back anymore when she felt the urge to kiss him. She could do that because she hold his heart again. It was not that she didn't hold his heart when he was with Sally, but it felt different this way.

Rose heard Jack yawn. She looked up to see his face and saw that he had opened his eyes. His beautiful blue eyes.

''Good morning, Jack.'' Rose smiled.

Before Jack got the chance to say the same to Rose, she gave him a soft kiss on his lips.

When Rose broke away from the kiss, Jack began to laugh. ''Well, that certainly is a good morning.''

Rose leant on her shoulders as she looked at him. Jack was caressing her hear and put it behind her ears. ''You're beautiful, Rose.'' Jack said.

Rose started to blush. Nobody had ever called her beautiful, but of course, Jack would. They were so in love with each other. She sighed. ''I still can't believe you chose for me, Jack.''

''I would do it again if I had to, Rose. I just couldn't let you go again. I lost you once, I wouldn't let that happen again. I've never stopped loving you in all those years, Rose. Not once.''

''Me neither, Jack. Me neither.'' Rose shook her head.

''Did you…Did you ever…had a relationship with another guy?'' Jack asked carefully.

Rose shook her head instantly. ''No, never. I couldn't, Jack. I just couldn't. I knew that I made a promise to you, but it was just too soon… There was this one time… No, never mind.''

Jack looked her in her eyes. ''Tell me Rose, I want to know. I want to know what you've been through the past years.''

Rose hesitated for a while. ''There…There was this one time that I went to a pub. One guy came to me and we talked a little bit. He asked me to dance. He looked like a nice guy, so I accepted it. But when I was in his arms, I just…I couldn't do it. All the time I was thinking about you. About how you danced with me on the Titanic. I knew then that I would never stop loving you.''

''Oh, Rose…I'm so sorry. It must've been so hard for you when you heard that I was about to marry Sally.''

Rose nodded. ''It was…but that's all in the past now, Jack. We found each other again and I love you so much.''

''I love you too, Rose.'' Jack leaned forward and kissed her long and deep.

After the kiss Rose had come up with an idea. ''Jack?'' Her eyes sparkled.

Jack smiled. ''What is it, sweetie?''

''I thought that maybe we could ride horses today, right in the surf. Like we talked about. Do you like that? If you don't, we can do something else, but I just thought that maybe…'' Jack put a finger on her lips.

Jack laughed. ''That's alright, Rose. I would love to do that.''

Rose nodded and smiled. ''Okay.''

Rose hadn't talked to so much people the past five years. Most of the time she was travelling, so she hadn't really made any friends. Because of this she was still a little bit used to what her mother and Cal thought. They did never like her thoughts…but Jack did. He respected her for who she was and he was willing to do everything for her.

''I'm sorry, I'm still not totally used to the fact that I can say what I want when I'm with you. That my thoughts will not be laughed at.'' Rose sighed.

Jack instantly felt sorry for her again and his face turned sad. ''Was it for you like that with…you know…your mother and Cal?''

Rose nodded.

Jack wrapped her up in his arms again. ''I'll never do that to you, Rose. I'll always respect you in every way.''

Rose looked in his eyes and saw that he meant every word he said. She was so glad that they had found each other again. There had been some good times when she had been travelling. She had seen beautiful places which she will never forget. But in her mind she was always thinking about how it would have been if Jack had been right there with her.

Jack disturbed her thoughts. ''Shall we go out of bed, then and get ready for the day?''

''Okay.'' Rose said.

Jack kissed Rose her nose and went out of bed. Rose did the same. Jack took off his pyjamas and showed off his muscular body. Rose was wondering about how it would be to make love to him again. She had thought about it the night before, but she had sensed that he was tired, so they had gone straight to bed.

When they were almost done with getting ready, Rose had some difficulties with her dress. ''Jack, could you button this up for me?'' She asked a little bit shy.

Jack turned around and smiled. ''Of course.''

He walked over to Rose and started buttoning up her dress. When he was done his put his arms around her. ''I love you, Rose.'' He whispered in her ear.

Rose sighed happily and leaned in his embrace. She was so happy to hear Jack say those words. ''I love you too.''

…

Once they were out of the house Rose thought about something. ''Jack…?''

Jack turned his face to her. ''Yes?''

''What…What happened to Fabrizio after the sinking, if you don't mind me asking?''

Jack's face turned sad in an instant. ''He wasn't on the survivors list and I haven't seen or heard from him since five years ago. He died on that night, Rose and it was all because of me. I insisted on winning those tickets for the ship. He didn't even want to play poker that day.''

''Oh Jack, I'm so sorry for your loss. I don't know what to say.''

Jack shook his head. ''Fabrizio was my best friend. I know he wouldn't want me to be sad about him. He wants me to be happy of our memories together. Maybe he sent you back to me. Maybe it was him. Maybe it was because of him that we are back together again.''

Rose nodded. ''Maybe it is.''

The rest of the was in silence. It was a comfortable silence. Both thinking about Fabrizio and how lucky they were to be in each other presence again.
