All night Diego, Gibbs, and the rest of the crew waited in suspense, wondering what was happening to their captain. It wasn't until the sun broke over the horizon when the doctor came out of Jack's quarters, looking quite exhausted. Everyone looked up at the doctor, waiting for him to speak.
"I think he'll be okay." The doctor said to the crew. "Give him another few weeks and if he isn't walking by then, come back here and I'll see if I can do anything else."
Diego smiled slightly. "How's Jack doing?" She asked.
"Captain Sparrow is fine, though I'm not sure if he wants company right now."
"What are ya talking about Doc? I always want company!" Diego looked passed the doctor and saw Jack in the doorway leading into his quarters. He was leaning heavily on the wall but he was standing. His right arm was in a sling, to help mend his shoulder better, and he was still shirtless. A fresh scar by his heart and the bullet wound showed where the doctor had worked on him. The doctor turned around and gasped.
"What the-how did you-?" He stammered.
Jack smiled. "Told ya I'd be fine." He said. The doctor smiled at Jack. "I guess you will be…but take it easy lad, don't push yourself too hard."
Jack wasn't listening to him though, instead his eyes were fixed on Diego, and Diego was staring right back at him, both with smiles on their faces. Gibbs looked at the two, a smug smirk on his face. "Yup, there is going to be love tonight." He muttered to himself.
About a half an hour later, The Black Pearl had set sail, but Gibbs had refused to let Jack take the wheel.
"Get some rest Cap'n, just because you can get up now doesn't mean you're completely healed."
"I've been resting for the past few weeks! It seems like that's all I'm doing."
"C'mon Cap'n, be reasonable, now go and get some rest."
"Reasonable? How reasonable do I have to be?" Jack spat. "I'm a dying man Gibbs, give me what I want." He joked.
Diego laughed and grabbed Jack's hand. "C'mon Jack, Gibbs is right." She said leading him into his quarters. Jack reluctantly followed Diego.
Once inside, Diego let go of Jack's hand and shut the door. Jack slowly made his way back to his bed and sat down, his feet on the floor.
"I'm quite impressed with you Captain Sparrow." Diego said sitting on the floor by Jack's feet. Jack looked down at her.
"I must admit, I impressed myself as well." He said. "Now what are you doing down there? Get up here!" Jack said.
"You want me on the bed with you?" Diego asked. Jack nodded.
"Aye, I feel bad, me being on the bed and you on the floor."
"I'm fine down here." Diego said looking up at him.
"And fine isn't good enough." He said gripping her hand. Diego smiled and stood up, then sat down on the bed next to Jack.
"Satisfied?" Diego asked looking at him.
"Not quite." Jack said looking deep into her eyes. Diego tilted her head to the side slightly, having a confused expression on her face. Jack bent forward and lightly kissed her lips. Diego froze when he did this, it seemed that all thoughts except of him had escaped her mind. Jack pulled away from her and looked down.
"Sorreh…I couldn't help it." He said softly. Diego finally was able to move again, she reached her hand forward and tilted up Jack's chin by using her fingers so that they were looking into each other's eyes again. She bent forward slowly and returned his kiss, moving her hand to his cheek. She didn't know weather she had returned the kiss by habit, or if she really wanted to kiss him. Jack was a bit shocked by what she had just done but didn't let that ruin the moment. He held her kiss, putting his good hand behind her head and deepening the kiss. Slowly, Diego parted her lips, silently asking for an entrance. Jack noticed and parted his lips soon after she did, slowly slipping his tongue into her mouth. It only took a few seconds before the two of them were in full make-out mode. He pulled Diego onto his lap gently, only breaking the kiss for a moment. In that moment, Diego looked at Jack.
"But what about your chest and arm?" She asked worriedly.
"I'll be fine luv." Jack said taking Diego's hat off of her head and setting it by his on the floor. Diego nodded, hoping Jack was right, and straddled him. She began to kiss him again, starting at where they had left off. Jack pulled away from Diego after a long while. He grit his teeth and closed his eyes.
"Are you okay?" Diego asked Jack.
Jack nodded. "Yeah, just a little pain in me shoulder." He said through gritted teeth.
"I'm sorry, did I do that?" She asked removing her arms that were so tightly around him. Jack shook his head.
"No…you didn't do anything." He said closing his eyes. Diego lovingly stroked the side of his face. "Get some rest Captain, I'll check in on you in a few hours." She said getting off of him. Once she was off of him, Jack slowly sank down in the bed and laid down. Diego smiled at him and then left the room, closing the door behind her. Once she had closed the door she sighed happily. Never in her life did she ever think that a single kiss could be so wonderful. She reached her hand up to fix her hat but realized it wasn't there.
"Damn, it's in Jack's room." She said quietly to herself. Then she smirked. "Just gives me a reason to go in there again." She said smiling. She put her hand back down and walked to the opposite side of the ship, leaning on the railing and in deep thought.
"Diego." A voice said. Diego turned around and saw Gibbs waving at her for her to walk over to him. She turned around and walked over to the wheel.
"Aye Gibbs?" She asked.
Gibbs looked at her head and noticed that her hat was gone. He shook his head slightly. "How's Jack feelin?" He asked.
"He's okay, but when I was in there…he had a pain in his shoulder…so I told him to get some rest."
Gibbs nodded. "What were you doing in there exactly?" He asked having somewhat of an idea.
"Uh…just talking." She lied. She didn't know whether Jack wanted anyone to know about their 'social time' or not. Gibbs raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
"What?" Diego asked defensively.
"Oh nothin, it's just that I saw the way you two were looking at each other a while ago…just thought that you two would be into something other than talking by now."
Diego blushed. She turned her head away from Gibbs so he couldn't see. Gibbs noticed and chuckled lightly. "Don't worry Diego, I won't tell anyone."
"Oh, I don't care if you tell anyone, it's Jack who might care." She replied. "And plus, it might have been a once only kinda thing." She said looking back at him.
"I guarantee it Diego, that won't be just a once only kinda thing. You remind him way too much of your sister, in a good way mind you."
"But I don't want him to love me because he thinks I'm my sister, I want him to love me because of me."
Gibbs shrugged. "Then you should tell him that." He said.
"I know, I will." She sighed and went back over to the ship's railing. She leaned on the rail and looked down into the water with another sigh.
