Author's note: Hey, it's me. I'm waiting till 3:00 so I can watch bones so I might as well add this chapter right?
Disclaimer: I only own Abby since all the other characters are real people. I do not own nor claim to own anything to do with James Cameron or the Titanic. I also own the story that goes with "Come Josephine my flying machine."
I left the table without so much as a word to anybody. I needed to find Jack and tell him how much I loved him. I headed to the third class areas and threw open the door to his room. Morgan jumped up in surprise.
"Where's Jack" I cried going hysterical.
"Abby, Abby calm down" Morgan said grabbing my shoulders.
"What happened" she asked calmly.
"To make a long story short, I got engaged to a billionaire without my knowledge, and said goodbye to the only man I ever loved" I said quickly leaving the room only to be bombarded by the others.
"Hey, lose your boyfriend?" Eva asked.
"Yeah, you know where he is" I replied.
"The talk from the third class is that you told him to turn into a monkey" Elizabeth cut in. Everyone stopped and looked at her.
"You need to stop listening to gossip" I told her.
"Oh, that's right he said something about committing suicide" Eva said.
"What" I yelled racing up the steps to the deck.
"I was just kidding! He's up on deck" Eva yelled after me.
"You think she heard me?" Eva asked Morgan. Morgan shrugged.
I walked slowly towards him. He turned when he heard my footsteps and I found myself staring into those deep blue eyes.
"Jack, I've changed my mind" I said softly walking toward him till I stood directly in front of him.
"Will you take me back" I whispered. He put a finger to my lips.
"Give me your hand. Now close your eyes." He directed softly. I did as he told me.
"Step up. Put your hands on the railing" he whispered in my ear.
"Don't peek. Are you peeking?" he laughed.
"No, of course not" I replied.
"Okay, now climb onto the railing. Do you trust me?" he whispered.
"I trust you" I said with all my heart. I felt him lift my arms up.
"Now, open your eyes" he said softly. I opened my eyes and found myself flying. Or at least that's how it felt. It had to be better than sky diving.
"I'm flying" I laughed.
"Come Josephine, my flying machine…" Jack sang softly in my ear.
"You sing that song a lot. What's it about?" I asked.
"It's about a man that loves a girl named Josephine. Josephine loves him back, but is being forced to marry a man who does not love. Eventually, the day comes for her to be married, he promised to show up and speak up that she must not marry the man she doesn't love.
But he never showed up. She kept up hope that he would come up to the moment where it was her turn to say I do. She said I do just to make her parents proud. Josephine had a rough life and on her death bed she asked her only child to find the man she had loved all her life.
Her child went off, found him, and brought him to her bed side. By this time she was fading fast and was sure to die in a matter of minutes. She asked him one question before she died.
Why didn't you come? He answered simply. You brought it upon yourself. You're the one that said I do. She died in his arms." Jack finished.
"That's horrible" I said.
"I know" He said turning my head towards him. "But I promise I will always come for you" he whispered. He pulled me in for a kiss.
LATER
"Is this too harsh a light?" I asked gesturing to the surroundings of the main room.
"I'm not used to working under these harsh conditions" Jack joked in a British accent.
EVEN LATER
"So, are you gonna let me see them?" I joked walking over to him.
"I don't know if you'll like it or not, but…" he said handing them over. One was of both of us holding hands walking on the deck. We were laughing. The other was of both of us kissing.
"They're beautiful" I cried in amazement.
"There yours" Jack laughed.
"Really," I cried.
"Really" Jack laughed. Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming down the hall.
"Come on" I said dragging Jack behind me. If I got caught with Jack I knew that I'd be in so much trouble. More trouble than I was in when I broke my retainers! That was a piece of plastic. This was a boy. We climbed in the closet.
"Can you believe Abby just left like that?" Sam asked.
"Yeah, I haven't seen her run that fast since she broke her retainers" Ellie replied.
"Ha, I remember that. Her parents went crazy. Imagine what they'd if they found out she had a boyfriend" Sam laughed. I heard the door open again.
"Ladies, have you seen Abigail" Cal's voice asked.
"No, not since tea" Ellie said.
"Oh, well thank you ladies" Cal said as the door closed.
"Thank god" I yelled jumping out of the closet pulling Jack after me.
"What were you guys doing in there?" Ellie yelled.
"Oh, I bet I know…" Sam started. I put my hands on my hips.
"No, I can assure you Sam it is nothing that your mind can think of" I said racing out of the room.
"Hey, where are you going?" Sam called after us. We looked back in time to see that Cal was at the end of the hallway and he had seen us.
"Holy crap!" Jack yelled pulling me along as we ran. We ran down the grand staircase.
"Hey, come on you guys" Sam called from the elevator. We ran in just as the door closed. Cal got there a second too late. We all burst into a laughing fit. Suddenly, Sam made an obscene gesture with her hand.
"Sam, that's inappropriate!" I yelled.
"I'll tell you what's inappropriate! Stalking! And that's exactly what that's dude's doing!" The elevator came to a stop, but Sam and Ellie didn't get out.
"Come on you guys!" I called.
"Someone has to keep him off your trail" Ellie admitted as the elevator doors closed.
"Come on" Jack laughed as he pulled me along after him.
"Where are we going" I laughed.
"I don't know" Jack laughed back. Jack pulled me into a small room. We immediately covered our ears because of the ear piercing sounds coming from below.
"What now!" I yelled over the roar of the engines.
"What!" Jack yelled back laughing. I followed him into the boiler room. It was different than I thought it would be.
Men with dirt splattered faces were shoveling coal into the boilers. Two big metal things went around really fast. I guessed that they were controlling the propellers.
"What are you two doing down here?" one man asked as we ran through.
"Carry on, don't mind us, keep up the good work" Jack complimented the men. I opened a door and was surprised to find that we had happened upon the storage deck.
"Well, lookie hear" Jack said pulling me after him.
I have always been one for old fashioned cars. When I was little the first car I wanted was a herbie. When I saw the Back to the Future movies I wanted a Delorian. Then finally I decided I wanted a movie star car. You know how in the old movies there were those cars that movie stars always rode in.
Well, this wasn't any of those cars. It was a mixture of all of them in some way. I immediately fell in love with it. I cleared my throat indicating for Jack to open the door for me. He opened it and climbed into the driver's seat. I put the window down and leaned against the seat. Jack honked the horn playfully.
"Where to Miss?" he asked in his fun British accent.
"To the stars" I whispered. Jack laughed. That was the last time the Titanic ever saw the stars. That night the Titanic sunk.
R/r I promise if you stick around and continue reading this story you'll find that the ending will be very different than you've ever imagined! Please review!
