Chapter 4: Love Returns

Will and Elizabeth were sitting at each end of the long table. There were two more people sitting there, one on each side. Captain Jack and his son both looked at Kaitlin and smiled, admiring the lovely woman she had become. Jack's son stood up and ran over to her. He touched her cheek, but she back-handed him in the face. "Ouch.I think you almost broke my jaw!"

"Captain Sparrow, who do you think you are? You have no right to touch me!"

"But I'm not-OW" Kaitlin smacked him again and he touched his red cheek.

"Don't you dare give me that attitude, Mr. Sparrow!"

"I'm Captain Sparrow, Miss Turner. That's Jack.my son." Kate's eyes turned to the man who had spoken those words. He looked like an older, but charming Captain Sparrow and Kaitlin realized that she really had hit someone else. She looked deeply into the dark eyes of the man that stood in front of her and cupped his face in her hands. She then realized who it was and ran out of the room. She ran down to the docks and sat down. Jack's son ran after her and saw her sitting on the dock. He quietly walked over to her and sat down beside her. "Jack."

"Yes.it's me."

"I'm so sorry that I-" Jack's lips met hers in a passionate kiss. He pulled her on top of him and his arms caressed her back and ran down to her waist. Immediately, she pulled herself off of him and stood up. "Where.how.you look."

"Calm down, Kaitlin. You know that it's me.don't you?"

"I can't tell, to be quite honest with you. I mean, you look just like your father did when I last saw him.same face.same hair.same type of clothing."

"Shh," he said as he put his hand over her lips and brought his lips to hers. Kaitlin then realized that it was the Jack Sparrow that she knew. His eyes were filled with that same love and courage they had always held. "Jack.I thought you would return sooner. I missed you so much and my parents even tried to get me to move on to another man."

"They did?"

"Yeah.they told me that you weren't coming back, even though I knew you would." Jack raised his hand to Kaitlin's cheek and the wind started to blow, causing their hair to fly in their faces. Kate gave Jack a gentle kiss and walked back up to the house with him.

The next morning, Kaitlin woke up and went downstairs. She found Jack's son sitting alone in the sitting room. His father was nowhere in sight and he was facing the fireplace. She crept up behind him and put her hands on his shoulder. "Kaitlin!"

"Did I scare you?" He looked deeply into her eyes and touched her cheek. "No.you could never frighten me," he said as he flipped her over the back of the chair and she landed in his lap. Kaitlin started laughing and she smiled as Jack looked her over. Her long white nightgown was almost skin- tight and a white robe flowed over her shoulders and down to her ankles. Jack brought her lips to his as the front door to the house swung open. The two paid no attention to who it was, but when the figure stepped into the sitting room, he stood there with a surprised look. "Miss Turner!" Kaitlin let go of Jack and looked at the man in the doorway. "DAVE," she said as she jumped up and Jack stood up next to her.

"Kaitlin, who is this guy?"

"Jack.this is David Norrington," she whispered, "He's the guy my parents tried to get me to like."

"The guy they 'tried to get you to like'? Miss, you're in love with me," Dave said as he walked over and put his arm around her.

"Get your hands off me!"

"That's not going to happen.you're MINE!"

"SHE BELONGS TO NO ONE!" Dave turned toward Jack and took his arm off Kate. "And you are.?"

"My name is Jack Sparrow, son of Captain Jack Sparrow."

"You're a pirate?"

"Aye.is that a problem?"

"Yes, as a matter of fact it is. You don't deserve a woman of Kaitlin's status.go find yourself a whore!"

"What did you say?" he replied as he took a step toward the Commodore's cousin. Kaitlin stepped in between the both of them as Jack put his hand on her shoulder. "Kate, move.I've got to take care of this pretty boy!"
