If it didn't have to be this way
By Jacksrumrunner
Author's Note: Ack! My Internet is down due to foul weather so I'm writing this on my computer, but posting from my dad's laptop. I really am looking forward into writing this story. It's really fun. Maybe when I'm done I'll finish the rest of the other ones. But just maybe. I don't own Pirates of the Caribbean!
Note on this Chapter: This takes place way before last chapter. I thought maybe if I sort of added some suspense more people would like it. Yeah so.pay attention!
Leaf Two:
"I love you, Isabel"
"I love you too, Jack," The couple whispered into each other's ears the night before their wedding. Isabel turned over to Jack in the small bed they shared in the little rented room by the sea in Port Maria. She was hoping after the wedding they could by a little cottage. However, "cottage" and "Captain Jack Sparrow" didn't go together smoothly at all. She almost laughed out loud at the thought. How on earth had she let herself fall in love with this womanizer?
"Jack?" She looked straight into his dark eyes. Jack gave her a questioning look.
"Are you sure you want to give up piracy?" This was obviously a hard subject for Jack. After all, before he had met Isabel he was the man everyone thought least to settle down and get married. He was Captain Jack Sparrow. The sea was his life, as so was the Pearl. Amazingly though, he knew the answer every time he set eyes on Isabel. He knew it had to be this way. After all, this was love.
"Yes" he said so sincerely as if the topic meant nothing to him. It had meant everything to him.once. But now that was all over. He had handed the Pearl over to his first mate Joshamee Gibbs, whom he knew would keep the Pearl in good condition. A few days back Jack and Gibbs had a really important discussion of this matter:
"Are you sure, Captain?" Gibbs was amazed at his luck, but sad that Jack had to go. Jack loved the Pearl, but a bonnie lass had taken his heart away. Gibbs knew Jacks way with women. Jack was a dirty scoundrel. Always promising a lass one thing, and another a different thing. He had broken many hearts, that Captain Jack Sparrow. But even Gibbs had to admit, the way Jack looked into Isabel's eyes.there was no falter. It was true love. And who was Joshamee Gibbs to interrupt?! He had to give the lad up, no matter how good of a Captain, or friend he was to him.
"Yes, I'm sure Gibbs" Jack responded with a sense of sadness in his voice.
"Well then, we'll be missin' ye"
"I'll be missing the Pearl too. But before I leave this beauty, can I ask you a favor?" Jack asked.
"O course Captain!"
"Will you wed me n Isabel on this ship?"
"O course Captain!" Gibbs was excited now. He knew this would be the greatest event to take place aboard the Pearl ever. " The preparations will take place immediately! Hey you scabrous dogs!" Gibbs called to the crew on deck. "Start cleaning this here ship up a bit! Captain Jack's getting hitched!"
"Gibbs, you know you're the captain now?" Jack asked with humor. He didn't want to give the title up, of course. But the truth has to settle in.
"I know, but as long as you are on the ship, mate. There ain't no other captain!" The two men started laughing.
"Goodnight Isabel"
"Goodnight Jack" And with that, the two drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
