Chapter Thirty-two
Pearl skipped along happily to her home as Jack and Elizabeth followed behind her. Jack walked while studying her face. She had a cute round face that still had some baby fat. She did look a lot like him. He knew for a fact that it was her...who else could it be?
It only took a few minutes until there reached the ally. Pearl then stopped to wait for them. She looked up at her "friends" with a scared look on her face. Jack knelt down next to Pearl. "What's wrong love?" he asked.
"It's dark." Pearl said while pointing to the ally. She had a point. For daytime it was still pretty dark. Jack smiled. "Tell ye what. How's about ye hold me hand while we walk down to ye home. I swear on pain of death that I will keep all of them monsters away from ye." He said with a gentle smile.
Pearl smiled and nodded. Jack then stood up and Pearl grabbed hold of his hand. She looked behind her shoulder every few moments to see if Elizabeth was still behind them. She was.
When the reached the door Pearl tugged on Jack's coat, "This one?" he asked. Pearl nodded her head yes. Jack walked over and opened the door. Inside there was a little bit of light, but not much.
"Mamma! Father! I'm back with some friends I want you to meet!" she shouted. Elizabeth's heart sank when she heard HER daughter call those people her parents.
"No need to shout child. This is the only room in the house." A tall slender woman said. She walked over and looked at Jack. She held out her hand. "Please to me you. I'm Pearl's mum Grace."
"And I'm Robert...Pearl's father." A deep voice said while walking over to Jack. Jack smiled and shook their hands. He had a hard time trying not to punch them both.
"These are my friends mamma." Pearl said with a grin.
Grace turned around to face Pearl. "Pearl, honey, go play over by your bed. Me and your father would like to have a word with your friends."
Pearl nodded. Before Grace was out the door she turned around again. "Honey if you need us we will be over by the ally where it is light, alright?"
Pearl nodded again as they all walked out the door. The four all walked to the end of the ally where it was light. Once they all stopped Jack cleared his throat to talk.
"Grace if ye don't mind me asking...did you adopt Pearl?"
Elizabeth rolled her eyes and hit Jack. "Great way to start the conversation Jack!" Elizabeth shouted.
Robert laughed and then answered Jack's question. "Yes...she is adopted, but why does that matter? She is our daughter and we love her. The woman that had her before said that her mother abandoned her only a few minutes after she was born."
Elizabeth glared at Robert. "I did not abandon her!" she shouted holding back tears. Grace and Robert's eyes widened. "You're Peal's mother?" Grace asked a little unsure.
"Yes! As a matter of fact I am! But obviously neither of you ever told Pearl that she was adopted! If I were you I would have told her!" Elizabeth shouted.
Jack looked a little surprised. He had never seen Elizabeth this angry before. "Calm down love." Jack mumbled to her.
Elizabeth ignored the comment for she was still glaring at Grace and Robert. Robert knew what they wanted. "So I guess you want her then?" he asked.
"Yes actually we do." Elizabeth said.
As Robert was about to say something Grace stepped forward. "Well that won't be happening. Pearl is ours and it is not our fault that you gave her away."
"I WANNA MAKE THE CHOICE!" Pearl screamed as she ran over to the four people standing there. "I heard the whole thing! Mommy it is my choice I wanna decide!" she whined. "I wanna live with Jack and Elizabeth!" Pearl shouted.
Jack and Elizabeth couldn't believe what Pearl had just said, They had not even spent the whole day with her and she already wanted to be with them. Elizabeth looked over at Grace and Robert who both looked heart broken.
Grace knelt down next to Pearl and held both of her small hands. "Then the choice will be yours. We will come back in the morning to discuss what you have decided. Pearl sniffed and smiled. As Grace and Robert began to walk away Pearl pulled away and ran back to Elizabeth and Jack.
Elizabeth leaned down and Pearl ran into Elizabeth's arms. "Bye...mum." Pearl said. Elizabeth looked up with tears in her eyes. Pearl didn't know how long she had waited to hear her call her mum.
Pearl then ran over to Jack and hugged his legs. She couldn't reach his upper body since he didn't lean down. So she hugged his legs. "Bye...daddy." She said. She then let go and ran back over to Grace and Robert. Jack and Elizabeth watched them walk away until they were out of sight.
"Tomorrow." Elizabeth whispered to herself.

Jade laid there in bed resting her head on Will's shoulder, and her arm stretched across his chest. Will laid there next with Jade running his fingers through her short, brown hair.
"Jade I know it has only been a short time...but I just wanted to say that....I love you."
Jade looked up and smiled at Will. "I love you too." Will smiled, happy that she was not freaked out by him saying this to her.
Jade then sat up with her legs to her chest as she looked at Will. Will hoped this was the right moment. He sat up as well and pulled a small box out from a dour from his nightstand. "Jade as you know I love you very much and well...I was thinking...."
"Yes" Jade said before he could finish. "Yes I will marry you." She said.
Will looked confused. "How did you know?"
Jade smiled and pointed to the nightstand. "Will I am not stupid I saw you grab that box out from your nightstand.
Will laughed. "So you'll be my wife?"
Jade's smile grew bigger. "Gladly." Jade then leaned in and kissed him passionately on the lips. Will then opened the small black box and inside was a silver ring with a blue diamond in the middle.
"It made me think of your deep blue eyes." Will said as he placed it on Jade's finger.
Jade starred at it in awe and the leaned forward and wrapped her arms around him. "Thank you." She whispered.
A/N: I know the chapters keep getting shorter, but they will get longer eventually. I promise! Well The next chapter should be out soon! Please review and tell me whatcha thought! Thanks!
