Chapter 20
Dis: I own nothing!...............sad but true *tear*tear*
As Angeline sat by herself for sometime she heard the sound of footsteps descending down the creaking stairs. She looked up and saw Alex's figure coming towards her. She smiled and got up from her place on the floor. "Jus' couldn' resist me, could ye Xander?" Alex smiled and shook his head, "A beautiful lady like you shouldn't be left alone."
He smiled and gave her a kiss through the bars of the cell. "I hate to see you caged up like this. Its not right."
Angeline shrugged, " 'S not that bad. Leaves a lot of room for thinkin' I guess."
"And what do you think about?"
"Oh, loads of things."
"Like what?"
"Like what will happen to this ship and to you once the noose it tied and pulled."
"Your already resigning yourself to the gallows!" Alex said in a shocked voice.
Angeline shrugged, "There's nothin' I can do about it."
"I won't let you be hanged. You don't deserve it."
"No one deserves it. But I can't change it, believe me, I could if I would, but I can't so I won't." She added shrugging.
"I don't know what I would do without you?" Alex said looking into her eyes which were so full of pain yet her face was calm and serene.
"Don't make this harder than it already is, Alex." She said. She felt the familiar lump in her throat that usually resulted in crying. But she kept her inner walls up strong and didn't let the tears fall, the walls had never crumbled before and she liked it that way, it made her feel safe and secure.
"But I love you. More than anything. I would do anything for you.'
Angeline turned away the walls slowly crumbling down. A tear stung the corner of her eye. She hated the feeling she had in side when he said things like that. It made her feel all mushy and stupid. She liked being strong and smart and she usually was, around other people.
'Angeline? Are you okay." She turned to him and he saw a single tear roll down her tan cheek. He had never seen her cry before. Although he hadn't know her for that long she had seem to be the type that didn't cry that easily. She wiped the tear away and took a deep breath.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Listen Alex, you can live without me. You've done it before, haven't you?" She said her voice shaking with each word.
"That's not the same. I didn't know you then, now that I've found you, I don't want to lose you."
Angeline sighed, "Oh Alex, you won't lose me. When you feel the oceans spray on your face, I'll be there softly kissing your cheek' She brushed his cheek with her cold hand, "and when you feel the breeze on a warm day, that'll be me tellin' ye everythin' will be all righ'. I won't be with you physic'lly but I'll be in your heart." She took her hand from his face and placed it on his chest. She could feel his heart beating under it, fast and strong.
"That's not good enough." Alex said his voice cracking. Angeline smiled. He took her hand off his chest and held it cradled it in his hands.
"It'll have to be because I can't do anythin' better."
"I'll save you, I'll fight, I'll do..." Angeline put a finger to his lips, silencing him.
"Its not worth you gettin' hanged as well.' He kissed her finger. "Dyin' won't be so bad. 'N I'll be wit my dad." She took her finger from his lips and let it fall to her side. Her other hand was still in Alex's, it's heat keeping hers warm.
"Aren't you scared? Even a little bit? Don't you want to live?"
"I've lived. I've been almost everywhere on this Earth. Don't you call that living?"
"Don't you want to be able to love somebody to grow old with them and share your life together?"
"I do love, I love you. And growing old wasn't something I was looking forward to anyway." She added with a shrugged.
"Angeline, I love you too, more than anything. That's why I cannot stand here and let you die innocently.'
"Not that innocently, actually." Angeline added in a low whisper.
Alex ignored her comment and continued, "I'm not going to sit back and let them take you away from me." He said in an angry whisper.
"You've got to move on Alex.' She said her voice shaking even more. 'There are plenty of other girls out there. Better ones. Ones that are proper and have a squeaky clean past." She looked down at her feet ashamed for once in her life of not being one of those girls.
"I don't want them, any of them."
"Why not?"
"Because they're not you.' Alex said. His voice cracking again as tears streamed silently down his face. He cupped his hand around Angeline's chin and tilted it up so that their eyes met 'I want you. And only you."
Angeline was now crying, her tears freely streaming down her face. She didn't try to hide it as she usually did but just let them fall onto Alex's hand. She breathed in a shaky breath and smiled.
"You will always have my heart, Alexander Turner."
"And you mine, Angeline Sparrow."
There was a knock on the door upstairs. Alex turned quickly and looked at the door. Mad that the knock had ruined the moment. He ran a hand through his hair nervously. "That's my father, he was keeping watch. I guess it means I have to go."
He stroked her cheek through the bars of the cell softly brushing away some of the fallen tears. She put her own arm through the bars and brushed the tear away. She let out a shaky laugh and said, "Ye better go before Norrington finds us both crying here like sissies." He forced a smiled onto his face and kissed her quickly. "I love you, Angeline Sparrow." He said backing up the stairs. Angeline smiled as she heard the door creak open and shut.
She let out a breath. 'Where did I go right,' she thought to herself, 'How did I find him? And why must I lose him?'
