Truth But No Logic-2
Disclaimer: I don't own these people!!!!
Thanks to Pepsi baybee for her review. I know Jack died, but I like to ignore this when I write about Titanic. Your review was really sweet! Also thanks to all who reviewed my other story and this one.

Jack looked down at Rose, as she lay peacefully in his arms, and his heart swelled with love for her. In his head he reviewed the events of the past week. It was all so surreal; finding Rose, asking her to marry him…….Jack remembered how he had watched with bated breath as she teased him. Rose had stood in mock deliberation for half of eternity, it had seemed to Jack at the time. Now, looking back, he realized it had been only a couple of minutes.
She had thrown her arms around him, smiling happily. Jack loved how when she smiled it always lit up her whole face, and this time was no exception. Her voice was low, and soft in his ear when she whispered "Of course I will." He had hugged her close, gently kissing her cheek.
They had been married two days later, and were currently living in an apartment paid for by the money Cal had left in his coat. Jack hadn't wanted to use Cal's money, but Rose had pointed out that they had no other means by which to live without it. He had grudgingly conceded to Rose's reasoning.
Rose stirred slightly as she awoke. A small smile was on her face as she sat up beside Jack. "Good morning," she said. Her voice was slurred by her long sleep, but nevertheless filled with love. "More like good afternoon," Jack replied. Afternoon? She thought, How can it be afternoon? I couldn't gave slept that long. Jack grinned at the confusion written on her face, and kissed her lightly. "Rose, honey you slept for a good deal longer than you think."
"I did?" "Yes, why is that so surprising?" "I'm not really used to sleeping late and it just…." Rose's voice had more than a little desperation in it. "Rose?" Jack prodded gently, "Are you ok?" He cupped her chin with his palm, forcing her to look into his eyes. "I wasn't sure if you'd be mad," Rose said softly. Jack shook his head; why would she think he would be mad if she slept late?
He smiled down at her. Oh, she was so beautiful! He knew this was a serious moment, but he couldn't resist pulling her into a kiss. If Rose minded she didn't show it in her response; she kissed him back, deepening it.
A moment later, Jack ended the kiss, fearing that if he didn't do so soon than he wouldn't be able to. "Rose," he whispered, "what would make you think I would be mad?' Rose looked sheepish. "I don't know, I just can't stop thinking about Cal, and how he would react to things." Her voice was low, little more than a whisper.
The hatred Jack had felt for Cal on the ship came back with a vengeance; that someone could hurt Rose, or would even want to was baffling to him. "Jack? What is it?" Rose touched his cheek gently. Jack snapped out of his reverie; in his mind he had been on the ship once more, but this time he got to tell Cal what an asshole he was for treating Rose the way he had. "Sorry, I sorta drifted away I guess. " "That's ok. Jack, I'm sorry about thinking you would react like Cal, I wasn't thinking." Rose looked at him, her eyes apologetic. "Rose, I love you, and it doesn't matter, as long as you know I'd never do anything to hurt you." Jack smiled as the apology in Rose's eyes was replaced by love. She mischievously in return. "You know, I'm not all that tired anymore," she whispered. Jack kissed her again. "Me neither."

AN: I know that was sort of fluffy and pointless, but I want them to be happy. Next chapter things get more difficult with the return of our favorite villain, and ice queen. I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Luck to all in writing! Review!
