Later that evening they all went to the last of the wedding parties.
As the band played softly, Anriette and Jack swayed to the beat, Jacks hands wrapped around her stomach and her head led against his chest. Jack was whispering softly to her. After the two had finished dancing, they turned to socialising with the others.
A few drinks later, Jack and Anriette were tipsy but not enough to loose their balance, just happily drunk. Anriette was laughing in a girlie, high pitched, teenager-in-love voice, at Jack's rude drunken actions and jokes. Anriette whispered something to Jack, giggling furiously. This made him smile, swift her off her feet and leave the party.
Elizabeth spotted this, she wasn't looking very happy about it either. Both Jack and Anriette knew that she didn't approve of them, but they didn't care! They just wanted their lives to go the way they wanted, and have a bit of fun.
'And we danced and we drank and I've seen some things you probably never got a chance to see. The song line seemed appropriate to the story there.
When you're stoned, baby, and I am drunk, we make love... (the rest wasn't appropriate)
A few hours later, Jack and Anriette returned to the party, still rather drunk, but now beginning to sober up. Jack wasn't feeling his usual self. Oh sure, he was feeling pleased and comfortable, as was normal. But, yet, he felt something else, something he couldn't describe. It was almost a good and bad feeling mixed together as one emotion. It was very strange. It was a feeling he'd never experienced before****. He wasn't really certain that he even liked the feeling.
**** And Jack has felt a lot of different feelings, he, he.
Anriette was also had a similar feeling. However, instead of just the same feeling that Jack had, she was feeling fantastic, excited and very, very impressed with Jack (in the main), but she was, also, feeling very good about herself, too. Anriette was the type of girl who wanted to tell everyone when she was happy, but she couldn't tell anyone about this, even if she was the happiest she'd ever been, because it would seem a little um...'impolite', to, so she'd have to make this time an exception.
Anriette then saw Elizabeth, and she could see that she wasn't very pleased, not like she felt.
"Where have you been?" Snapped Elizabeth.
"I went for a um... 'walk' with Jack." She replied.
She could see that Elizabeth clearly didn't believe her but she still didn't care.
"Anyway, what's it to you, Liz? If you don't like me and Jack being together, then I suppose you ought to have a little look at your life." She tormented.
"What's you and Jack got to do with my life?" She asked, very seriously.
"Well...Your father didn't like you and Will being together, to be honest, did he? No, he wanted you to marry Norrington."
To this, Elizabeth had no answer. So she turned around disapprovingly, and walked back to a group of people who she was socialising with before. There was nothing Elizabeth could do, now, to stop Anriette and Jack, whether she liked it or not. And, even though Anriette didn't think her heart could feel any better and lighter, it just rose higher. She was so glad she had just got that off her chest. Mel, however, unlike Elizabeth, liked Anriette and Jack being together, she didn't mind at all.
