Ch. 37 Now What?

Everyone stared at Jack and Rose after the big quarrel. 'Were they ok?' they thought. The passengers didn't know what to think. The man with the gun had been disarmed and arrested and Jack and Rose were left out in the opening. People looked at each other and whispered certain things. Should they go talk to them? Was everything ok with them? All of a sudden, different passengers began to slowly approach the couple and ask them if they were alright and other questions.

Jack and Rose felt like they were being interviewed, but they didn't mind. Now that Cal was out of the picture, everyone could relax again. Jack and Rose looked at each other like 'now what?'

"So now what Jack?" asked Rose smiling at Jack feeling relieved that Cal was gone for good.

Jack looked at Rose, grabbed her face with both hands and just kissed her. "Why don't you by my fiancée?" He looked her straight in the eye.

That one statement made her heart melt. 'Your fiancée? Of course I'll be your fiancée! As a matter of fact, I'm already your fiancée!' Rose thought to herself. "Why Jack, I'm already your fiancée!"

The two laughed together.

Cal was gone for good. He may not be dead but he certainly wasn't going to be in their way again. It was "the end" for Cal.
