My heart stopped. He promised! I ran back up the stairs and threw on a dress. I raced back downstairs and almost collided with the butler who was trying to open the door for me. I rushed through the town, calling his name. "Jack! Jack where are you?" I bumped into a woman dressed quite embarrassingly. She smiled at me as I rushed past her.

"Are you lookin' for Jack Sparrow?"

I turned around. "Yes! Have you seen him?"

"Seen him, I have not, but you can check over there." She pointed to a building with a sign over the door with the words "One Stop" on it.

"But how do you know where he is?" I said, puzzled. She laughed.

"Dearie, when Jack Sparrow's in town, everyone knows!"

"Thank you." I started to walk away but she grabbed my arm.

"Wait! Why do you want Jack? He ain't in trouble, is he?"

"He's my husband."

She looked surprised. "Huh, I bet you're not the first one neither."

"The first one?" She smiled and walked away. I shrugged it off and ran to the building. I shoved open the doors and held my nose. The stench of rum and beer filled the room, along with smoke and body sweat. Blah! I pushed past a few drunken men, carefully checking their faces, and walked to the bar. A man with a crooked smile stood up from behind the counter and addressed me.

"Well, well, what have we here? Can I help you miss?" I ignored his staring eyes and looked around the room.

"I'm looking for Jack Sparrow. Have you seen him?"

He laughed. "Of course I have. He's over there." He pointed to a table surrounded by women who were gushing over someone I had yet to see. Tears fell from my eyes as I stared at the group.

"Are-are you sure?"

He nodded. "Yep." My feet moved slowly towards the group until I was a few feet away from one of the offending females. She turned around and stared at me.

"What do you want?" She smirked and looked me over. Through my tears, I managed to say something.

"Jack." She moved aside and the sight made my tears fall faster. Jack was sitting with a glass of rum in his hand with two women on his lap. He didn't notice me first off, but he looked up and his eyes bulged out.

"Amanda," he managed to get out. My lips formed the word "no" but the sound didn't come out. I started to back up. My tears swelled my throat up and I could hardly see. I backed up into a stool and tripped over it. I saw Jack's outline get up from the table and drop his glass. I got up fast and ran out of the building with the word "no" falling out of my mouth as fast as my tears were falling from my eyes. I ran to the Captain's home, up the stairs, and to my room. I locked the door and flung myself on the bed.

In the midst of my tears, I heard Jack banging on the door.

"Amanda! Open the door!" No Jack, I've made my choice.

[Dun, dun, dun! What is she going do to? The person with the best answer gets to name the sequel to this story! Only one more chapter left!]
