Chapter 21.
I know it took me forever again to update, but this time it was on purpose! I wanted to wait with updating this chapter, because I wanted to post this just before I'd go on holiday, which is tomorrow!
I won't be able to write for the next two weeks, 'cause I'll be in Spain and then I can start writing after the two weeks, so the update will probably take like a month... I'm sorry!
Really anxious of what you will all think...
-X-O-X-
Angelica didn't really know what she was supposed to think of Jack's behaviour. She wasn't exactly complaining. His kisses were amazing, but still... Wasn't this all going a bit too far?
Jack had pulled her to a dark corner, and was now kissing her hungrily. He held her close in a passionate embrace and was gripping at almost every piece of her body he could lay his hands upon. His hands were rough. He wasn't as gentle as the way he had been in the past...
To be perfectly honest, Angelica felt trapped. Jack had her pinned against the wall, blocking her body with his own. There was no room for any conversation, he would just kiss her over and over again... She was starting to feel a bit uncomfortable... She felt treated like a common wench of his!
How he just practically pressed his face against hers, his beard pricking at her skin. It tickled! She tried to pry him away from her. She managed, as far as his strong arms would allow her to and would succumb to loosening their strong on hold on her body...
''Jack, be gentle...'' Angelica tried to suppress a laugh, due to the tingling sensation of his beard...
''Why should I?'' he grabbed her even tighter and closer to him.
Before she could answer he had already begun attacking her lips with kisses. Jack pushed her further into the dark corner, shielding them even more from view from the tavern.
His hands were on her back, to her neck, in her hair, and started to pull at her clothing...
''I want you.'' he huskily growled into her ear.
It was his ultimate prize. He wanted her. He would have her. He would literally claim her, like had never done before.
''Jack?'' Angelica shifted uncomfortable, trying to keep his hands from taking her clothes...
He couldn't be serious?! He wasn't referring to what she thought he was referring to, was he?! They were in a public place!
But he was... His kisses became even hungrier and Angelica had no control of where his hands would go...
''Stop'' she tried.
''You know you want it...'' Jack kissed her again.
''No, Jack. Stop.'' she tried to look into his eyes and make him see...
''It's dark here, no one will see...'' Jack ignored her and continued his actions.
''Stop!'' Angelica turned her face away.
''Come on, luv'' ''You're drunk'' Captain Sparrow tried once again.
She couldn't believe him! He was trying to take advantage!
''No, I'm not!'' with all her might, Angelica pushed him away.
She stomped on his foot and kicked him in the knee. As Jack doubled over with a growl, she felt the urge to spit on him, but thought better of it... Instead, she started to scream at him!
''You're crazy! This is crazy!'' Jack would cause her insanity some day!
This feeling that had been nagging her for days, finally came through. Jack was insane! His crazy and jealous ways! He would always want her all for himself, but in the end he would always leave her! She couldn't go through that anymore, not even one more time...
She just couldn't... She was done. She deserved better!
Angelica pushed him off, as Jack tried to approach her. She started to walk away, but of course Jack caught up with her and pulled her back by her hand.
Angelica fiercely stared at him, with a look full of hatred. But Captain Sparrow saw something different. She loved him dearly, yes, but there was agony...
She swiftly pulled her hand back, leaving Jack numbed.
Pure agony. Jack knew he should follow her, but in his mind was still transfixed on those eyes filled with hurt...
''That was not the 'Making her yours' I was talking about, Jackie'' his father suddenly stood behind him.
Jack didn't even bother to ask how he suddenly got there, or how much he had seen of the whole debacle.
''I know!'' of course Jack knew Captain Teague had referred to marriage!
He just couldn't propose, couldn't commit! He was a Pirate Captain! But he could lose his love over it...
Captain Jack Sparrow opened his hand. He looked at the object Angelica had left in his hand as she had pulled away... The purple ring had a black glow cast over it, due to the poor light in the dimly lit tavern...
The Ring Of Thieves... He quickly clenched his fist tight, the right piercing into his skin. He looked straight ahead.
''Angelica!'' Jack Sparrow rushed out of The Captain's Daughter.
Jack had quickly searched his surroundings outside the bar, before rushing back to The Pearl. It was the only place he knew she could go right now...
As soon as his boots hit the deck his Pearl, he realised how dangerous it had been to just rush back to his ship... He could have got captured!
Jack quickly shook the thought from his mind and got to his cabin.
''Angelica?'' she wasn't there...
Jack Sparrow felt frustrated. He looked around his cabin, as if Angelica Teach would miraculously appear anyhow... He had messed it all up again... He could should himself for his own stupidity!
Jack angrily got his compass out of his pocket. Hoping that the object would lead him to Angelica... He watched it spin and stop, pointing towards the corner.
The corner... Jack frowned. He would have seen her in the corner, she couldn't be there... Still, Jack walked over.
In the corner he found several bottles of rum.
Right. Rum. That was what he needed right now!
Captain Sparrow eagerly took two bottles and settled on the ground, pulling a bottle to his lips. Drowning his sorrows seemed the best option to deal with this situation, as he was waiting for Angelica to return...
Jack had a feeling that she would still return to him. Like she always did... In the morning she would be here, ready to curse him to the high heavens.
Still, The Captain had his doubts...
Captain Edward Teague casually strolled along the dirty streets of London. Enjoying the light cold drizzle of rain that had started to fall, drink in hand, humming a Pirate tune...
He had left The Captain's Daughter soon after his son had done. He could believe how ignorant his boy was... Captain Teague had hoped he had taught his son to do better with the ladies than he had done himself... After all, things with his own wife hadn't ended well...
Unfortunately, Captain Teague started to feel like he had failed to teach his son that lesson in life...
His son had everything, if he could only see... Angelica Teach was good for him. Why couldn't he keep her?!
It seemed as if his thoughts about the girl had made her appear... He saw her silhouette across the muddy street, shielding herself from the rain, hiding away in her coat...
She was lost in thought, because she was unresponsive as the older Captain approached her.
''My boy loves ye, ye know...'' Captain Teague said.
Angelica looked up, seeing Jack's father standing before her.
She shook her head. She didn't need to hear this right now... Now, that she had decided to leave him. To finally never look back. Hearing that Jack loved her was the last thing she needed to hear at the moment!
''You know, he's a fool! That why needs you, to help him...'' Captain Teague tried again...
''I can't help him... He's a lost cause!'' Angelica answered bitterly.
Captain Teague had to admit the Spanish beauty had made a point there...
''You're leaving him?'' still, he asked.
''I have to'' a silent tear rolled down her cheek...
''I know ya, Angelica... My Jackie will always be on your mind, and in your heart!'' ''Ya want ta live like that?'' he truly felt sorry for the girl.
''I would like to start over, now I still can... If I still can...'' ''I love your son, but I deserve better.'' she sounded determined.
As much as Captain Teague wanted to send the girl back to Jack, he knew there was a truth in what she'd said... She did deserve better and she could do better than his lazy Jack!
The Captain sighed. He needed to let it go... Only fate could sort this out, maybe they would end up together some day in the end after all...
''T'was a pleasure to meet ya all those years ago, Miss Teach... You're the best Jackie's ever had'' The Captain tipped his hat.
Angelica smiled through her tears. She quickly hugged the man, but swiftly let go and took off. The man was surprised, as he watched her go...
She needed to go now! Before she would give in and go back.
This was it. On her own again. Starting her new life...
A new horizon, without Jack Sparrow.
I've got to walk away
While there's still hope
Learn to erase the love I know
And let you go
Because what I thought was love
Was only lies
Taking what you want
Left me behind
As my heart dies
Here we are again
Knowing this will never end
I will not begin
A fight that we can never win
So I'm letting go
This is my last goodbye
Leaving all the memories of you behind
I will not wait here
And waste my whole life
From a love never meant to be
-X-O-X-
I feel kind of bad for leaving you with this now without an update for like a month!XD
I guess you all could have seen this coming...
Don't get me wrong, Angelica loves Jack dearly, as we all know, but every woman has her limits!
Anyway! I loved how many reviews the latest chapter got! Keep 'em coming!

Lyrics: My Last Goodbye – Trading Yesterday
'I've got to walk away'
'While there's still hope'
'Learn to erase'
'The love I know'
'And let you go'
'Cause what I thought was love'
'Was only lies'
'Taking what you want'
'Left me behind'
'As my heart dies'
'So here we are again'
'Knowing this will never end'
'So I must let go'
'This is my last goodbye'
'Leaving all the memories of you behind'
'I will not wait here and waste my whole life'
'And waste my whole life'
'I can see you now'
'With opened eyes'
'When you come around'
'And realize'
'That I don't need you to survive'
'I will not begin'
'A fight that we can never win'
'So I'm letting go'
'This is my last goodbye'
'Leaving all the memories of you behind'
'I will not wait here and waste my whole life'
'And waste my whole life'
'My passion, my poison'
'The life and death of me'
'I can't take you taking everything'
'From a love never meant to be'
'This is my last goodbye'
'Leaving all the memories of you behind'
'I will not wait here and waste my whole life'
'This is my last goodbye'
'This will be one final tear for love to die'
'I will not wait here and waste my whole life'
'With my last goodbye'
'With my last goodbye'
