Only the Truth
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Oh lordy! Johnny did not win...but he was there in his tuxedo with chain glory. I loved his new hair thing. It was very Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic. Did anyone notice that? Anyway, I was in the toilet the other day (yes I think about Johnny in the toilet) and I thought of the FUNNIEST THING! Has everyone seen the Darkness's video for "I believe in a thing called Love"? IMAGINE JOHNNY IN THAT WHITE SPANDEX GETUP SINGING! Anyone who's seen Cry Baby knows he cannot sing. Which is just as good because he could just suck helium and then hit those high notes...hehe.
I know that last chappie was a tad short but I have a lot going on right now and I can't really get a hold of time anymore.
IMPORTANT ANNOUCEMENT...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RESPOND TO ME! Am I the only one who isn't getting Alerts in their Email? What's going on?!?!?!??!?!??!
Chapter 8
PS! I am making FF.net history by introducing a new something in this chapter...can you guess what it is?????
Jack escorted you out of the pub. The night sky was very dark now. Your hiccups had worsened and you were steadily getting very annoyed by them. Finally they settled down and you looked at Jack. He turned to you and you felt a rush of emotions go through your body. "I want you," you heard yourself say to him mentally. You suddenly scolded yourself. How could you want him? He's a pirate! He wouldn't ever want you, either. You felt very self-conscious at that moment. What is wrong with you? Jack had stopped walking. You two had somehow ended up at the beach. You don't even remember walking that far.
"Isn't it beautiful?" Jack asked dreamily. You looked up. He was right. The moon was so beautiful; or rather the moons were beautiful! There were two moons, one in the water and one in the sky, both a milky white with small grooves and impressions on them.
"No" you said. Jack turned and smiled.
"Good thing I understand your problem, luv" he said. He was also right at this. You smiled at him.
JACK'S POV
"Good thing I understand your problem, luv" I said to her. What a queer curse. No being able to tell the truth.
"Your curse is a lot like piracy, you know," I said. She smiled at me again. What a brilliant smile! It spread across her face and made her glow. I'm happy I get to see this smile. Brings my spirits up, after losing the Pearl an all. I guess I have to get 'er back. Soon. Suddenly, one of my best thoughts in a lifetime came upon me ol' self.
"Luv!" She almost jumped at my outburst that broke the peaceful silence. I calmed a bit down.
"Listen! This could be a big opportunity for both you and I! Come with me to get the Pearl! Then we can go looking for the book! It'll be great! I can't believe I hadn't thought of it earlier! What you say?"
YOUR POV
"Listen! This could be a big opportunity for both you and I! Come with me to get the Pearl! Then we can go looking for the book! It'll be great! I can't believe I hadn't thought of it earlier! What you say?"
Amazing! You could go with Jack! It would be wonderful!
"What you say?" he repeated. You bowed your head down. You couldn't go. No matter how much you wanted to.
"Yes" you said finally.
"Brilliant!" he yelled. He grabbed you by the wrist and looked you in the eye. He understood, you knew.
"You don't want to come?" he asked, hurt. Knowing you couldn't answer.
"But we can rid you of the curse! You could tell the truth again!" Your head remained bowed.
"I can come. I want to be caught and killed because I'm with pirates" you say.
"Oh come on luv! You have to let go! Live a little!" his eyes were pleading as he waltzed around the beach.
"Yes"
"Yes!" he exclaimed arms flailing about, except this time there was no barmaid's backside to smack this time. He gave up.
"Alright luv" he said. "I'm not your love...yet," you thought.
"Well then, while I'm here" he said. You almost forgot that Jack wasn't going to be with you forever. Why couldn't your soul say yes to him! Why couldn't you want to go with him? Why! Why! Why!
"Why don't we have a little fun?" he asked. You gave him a questioning look.
"Come on, luv. It'll ease your soul" You wondered what could ease your soul? Nothing, probably.
"Follow Me," he said. He walked into the forest, the random sticks and twigs crackling beneath his feet. He led you for what seemed like hours, without a word. You let your mind wander. You loved the way Jack almost tumbled through the forest.
"Ow" you said. He turned around.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Nothing" you had hit your head on an overhead branch you hadn't seen since you were too busy thinking about Jack. Finally he stopped. You sort of crashed into him.
"Ere we are" he said. You looked around. There was a space between two trees and a lot of bushes on the ground. God forsaken, was he being suggestive? Did he want to sleep with you here? You blushed at the thought.
"Um, Jack? What exactly are we looking at?" you asked. He pointed at the bushes. You did not understand. He sat down next to a close bush and picks off a set of leaves. You watch him dumbfounded. What was he doing with leaves? He kept on going. He pulled out a pipe and a little leather pouch. The little leather pouch had dark green pieces of leaves. He packed the dark green dried leaves into the pipe and took out some matches.
"Sit here, luv," he said patting the ground next to him. What was going on? You sat next to him. He lit the match and put it under the pipe. The pipe glowed and he took a deep inhale. He held it in and slowly exhaled out of his nose, making him remind you of dragon's you read about in the story books you had when you were a child. He offered the pipe to you. You hesitated, but finally gave into his deep brown eyes. You inhaled, in his fashion.
[Cough cough cough]
How could he inhale this stuff? You were coughing like crazy. Jack sneered.
"You think [cough] this is [cough] funny?" you ask him.
"No, not at all!" he said. "I was just remembering my first time".
"What is this [cough] stuff?" you ask.
"The folks around here call it pipe weed" he said. He took the pipe from you and started the process all over again.
"Where does it come from?" you ask
"These bushes" he said. Now you understood. He offered you the pipe again. This time you didn't take it.
"Oh come on now! It'll soothe the soul, trust me!" he said. You highly doubted that.
"I promise" he said, stressing the promise. Those eyes... You took the pipe again. This time you didn't cough. In fact, it was quite enjoyable. You felt everything leave you, pain, worry, angst, anger...all that was left was Jack.
"Jack..." you said in an almost whisper. He leaned into you. You looked into his eyes. Those eyes... You suddenly felt his lips against yours. The time was right; you poured all your love and soul into him. Then you pulled away. You felt your eyes tear up. You got up and turned away. You started running. You didn't turn back when you heard Jack say "Wait!". You fell into eternal darkness...
Did you know what it was? I introduced marijuana into the wonderful world of fan fiction! Well, it's "pipe weed" according to J.R.R. Tolkien. It's Jamaica, for crying out loud! Of course they have it there! Well, REVIEW PLEASE!!
