I was in bed and I just fell asleep when I heard someone come in. "jack, is
that you?"
"Yes, it's me." He said as he sat in the chair next to the bed. He looked
so tired. "Jack come here, lay down you look tired." I said as I moved over
to the other side of the bed. Jack got up and lay down next to me. I lay
there quietly until I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer. I woke to the
soft snore of jack sleeping. I looked at his boyish grin. He looked so
sweet. I lay my head on his chest and drifted off. I faintly heard him
whisper, "Love, will you marry me?" and I tried to reply but I was too
tired. I woke up again and he was gone. I climbed out of bed and walked out
to the deck. There he was standing commanding the ship. "Jack, what did you
say earlier about marrying me?" I asked as I walked over to him. "Oh, yeah,
I asked if you would marry me. Will you?" "Well, jack what about a church
or a ring?" "We will go to France and get married and I will acquire a
ring." He said as he held me close. "Can you see it? The sweet smell of the
sea, the sunrise in your window, me holding you close." He said while
staring at the horizon. "Yes, I can see it." I replied looking at him. Will
came up to ask jack about something and saw us together. "Oh, I'm sorry.
I'll come back later." "No, Will. It's alright. Please ask away or whatever
it was you wanted." "Yes, how do the pirates fight?" "Fight? Bloody hell,
you're a pirate you should know!" "I AM NOT A PIRATE!!! I am a blacksmith."
"Ah, yes but you were born the son of a pirate were you not?" "Yes, but
what does that have to do with anything?" "Well, since your father was
William Turner, I do believe I have to show you how he taught me to fight."
Jack said as he walked over to Will. He drew his sword, "Fight me you lazy
landlubber!" jack called out tauntingly. "Lazy?! Who are you calling lazy!
I don't see you winning over the woman of your dreams, jack. Or is there no
lady in your heart to woo? Tell me jack, do you just love all women and not
just one?" "Why you bloody.. If you weren't William turner's kid I would
slice you to pieces!" jack yelled as he struck his sword along the blade of
will's. I screamed as Will's blade nearly cut jack's arm. "It's alright
love, I am ok. No blood shed for captain jack!" he called out to me. Not
yet, I thought. Jack backed will onto the plank, "now, tell me again,
William, how was it that your dear father died?" "By sinking into the
depths of Davie Jones' locker!" will said as pushed jack off the end of the
plank. "Jack!" I screamed. He surfaced, and cursed. "The waters freezing!"
he said as he climbed the rope will threw to him. He made it on deck and
lie in a wet heap. I ran to him, "god, jack you're like ice! We need to get
you warm before you really freeze to death. Will help me carry him below."
I called as I tired to lift jack by myself, an unsuccessful attempt I might
add. Will came and took hold of jack's legs as I carried him down by his
chest. We lay him on the bed and will ran to get some dry things. I
hurriedly unbuttoned his shirt and stripped him of it. As I did this I
thought how to get him warm as fast as possible, what to do? I removed his
gun and sword, he had forgotten to remove them before jumping, but he
couldn't have then, could he? I reach for his belt, and paused. My hands
shook, I very well didn't want him killing me for touching his "goods" but
I very well didn't want will doing it. So I did it myself, I took a deep
breath and removed his trousers with little difficulty. Jack was somewhat
conscious, and talked to me while I was stripping him of his clothing. It
was quite bothersome. I was trying to warm him with a quilt from the bed,
which wasn't going well when will came in with more blankets. We wrapped
jack in them and made sure all his wet clothes were put out to dry. I sat
with him and wrapped my arms around him to keep the heat in. he leaned
against me with a heavy sigh. I tried not to fall over, he wasn't very
light. We sat there for awhile and I began to get tired, it had been an
eventful day. I lay back and jack wriggled over so as not be lying directly
on top of me making me suffocate. I was cold so I got up and brought over
another quilt, I wrapped it around him and I before falling asleep. I woke
to hear jack muttering something in his sleep. "Bloody pirates! Sinking
William to davey jones` locker! I am glad you're bloody cursed!" "Jack,
jack. You're talking, wake up." I said softly to him. "What, huh?" he
replied sleepily. "You were talking in your sleep about davey jones`
locker, and curses?" I said questioningly. "Oh, twas just a dream about the
pearl, nothing to worry about. Unless we run into those bloody pirates."
