"Paloma"
Jack just stared at her.
Paloma just rolled her eyes.
"I'm out of here" she turned to Jack, "Thank you"
Jack just stood there trying to figure out what to say. He didn't realize that she had said something. He barely realized that she was walking away.
"Wait!" he said, grabbing her wrist.
Paloma tried to pull away. "Let me go! What the hell do you want?" she asked.
"Don't ye recognize"
Paloma looked him over carefully.
"Its me! Its Jack! Don't you know your Jack?"
Paloma turned away, tears building up. "The only Jack that I knew was killed 10 long years ago" she said bitterly.
Jack put his arms around her and pulled her close.
"Get away from me!" she growled and tired to push him away.
Jack didn't let her go. "I didn't die, I am alive and well."
"No, your not Jack!"
"Listen too me, Paloma." He whispered into her ear. "I made it off the island, you have got to trust me."
His voice was so soothing. Paloma started to relax, this wasn't a dream. This was Jack, the one that she thought about every day since they had parted almost 10 years ago.
"I trust you" she said tiredly.
"You can't stay here, this no place for someone like you. I am taking you back to the 'Pearl'."
She gave him a look of uncertainty.
"Got me self a new crew"
Before Paloma could protest, Jack picked her up and carried her to the ship.
Paloma rested her head on his chest. It felt good being cradled in his arms again. She could hear his heart beat. He still smelted like salt and rum. She looked up at him. He still looked the same. Paloma for the first time in 10 years smiled. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
So uh ya that's it for now. The next chapter won't take as long as this one…
This would of come sooner but I have a been putting it off cause a) of writers block – b) I have school to worry about- C) I didn't really want to write.
