"I think I'll be headin' up to bed, Mom," James mumbled sleepily. Again, he and his family were congregated in the living room. As James retreated to his bedroom, a slightly rumbled mumbling could faintly be heard from upstairs, coming from the bathroom.
The walls of the bathroom were an ivory-greenish color, and little pink flowers dotted the tile. The water of the bathtub was running hot, while bath-time bubbles were cascading over the top of the tub.
Amidst the suds was (Captain) Jack, cowboy hat still atop his head. His legs were too long for the bathtub, and his feet poked out of it on the sides. As he played with a nearby rubber ducky, he sang to himself.
"Yo ho, yo ho, a ducky's life for me! I'm yeller, I'm savvy, I'm a wee bit fat!
Drink up me hearties yo ho! I've sailed the world, I've sailed it again, never without my hat!
Yo ho yo ho a ducky's life for me! We swim and we dive and we stay on the sea! Drink up me 'earties yo ho! Yo ho Yo ho! A Ducky's life for me!!!" Jack smacked his arm into the water as he got more enthusiastic.
"Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
We extort and pilfer, we filch and sack.
Drink up me 'earties, yo ho.
Maraud and embezzle and even highjack. Drink up me 'earties yo h-" He was interrupted suddenly when the bathroom door opened. It was Becky. Her cheeks blazed.
"I, erm I'm sorry Jack! I'll go now! Sorry to disturb you," she said so quickly that Jack could barely understand what she said. His eyes remained on the door for a few more lingering moments as Becky left, then he returned back to his rubber ducky.
It wasn't until the next morning that anyone realized that Jack had never left the bathroom-he must have fallen asleep during his bath.
"Oi!" he half-yelled as he woke up to find himself still in the bathtub, surrounded in a bit of soapy water. Leaping up for a towel, he made his way to Jame's room to get his clothes. Once he was properly dressed, he again found the family waiting for him. He stared at them, eager to hear their next destination.
"We're off to the mall again," Judy explained. Jack had a blank expression on his face, but after a moment, he caught on, remembering that this "mall" place was where he got his hat. They all headed towards the car.
By this time, Jack was an expert on seatbelts, and happily clicked his together without even being told to. With a broad, cockamamie grin, Jack stared out the window, enjoying the view.
An hour later, the Carson family and the Captain were sitting down on the top floor of the mall, at the food court. Enjoying some McDonald's French fries, Jack looked down at the floors below. A guy in a red suit was sitting in a big chair, and some little unpleasant child was sitting on his lap.
"That's 'Santa'" James clarified, noticing the perplexed gaze upon Jack's face.
"Santa.." Jack repeated, cocking his head. Before anyone could stop him, Jack bounded down the stairs to Santa. The Carsons watched from above, unable to prevent the spaz attacks of Jack.
"SANTA!" Jack full on screamed, pushing some screaming children out of the way. No one was currently on Santa's lap, so Jack made a running start. He leaped onto Santa's lap and put his arms around Santa's neck. "Santa.." he muttered.
But some security guards, dressed up as elves, angrily removed Jack from Santa before he could even tell him what he wanted for Christmas. By this time, the Carson family was on the bottom floor with Jack.
"Jack! What do you think you were doing?" James raged.
"I just wanted to be tellin' Santa what I be wanting for Christmas..." Jack looked up with his puppy-dog eyes.
"Just ter be with someone durin' the holidays, that be all..Be someone like you," Jack said. "Aw, Jack, come here," Becky whispered. She hugged Jack, and pretty soon, they were all hugging. After an extensive day at the mall, everyone was back to the car.
"Hey, Jack...When you do leave, we'll all miss you, ya know that, right?" James asked.
"Of course, I just be a bit over-" But no one heard the last few words of Jack's sentence. A loud THUD interrupted him.
"What was that?" Becky wailed. Judy's eyes went big as she realized she had hit something with her car.
"Kids, get out of the car, I must have hit something," Judy said.
"Mom, you probably just hit the curb, that's all," Becky protested. But everyone got out of the car anyway to see what was hit.
And there, lying on the pavement was, was the black-haired, pirate-clothed, handsome-looking Will Turner.
Everyone looked at each other, as Will grunted and opened his eyes.
