Chapter 12
It took less than a day to get to the island were Jack was staying. Will couldn't believe that Nicole wanted to see Jack. But he was hurt. He was lucky that he did die out here.
Will told Nicole that he wanted to speak to Jack in private. Nicole said that was fine and left the room.
"How is she?"asked Jack.
"She's doing fine. That baby sure is a kicker though."
He smiled. "Just like she was."
"Jack.what happened?"
"It was nothing Will. There was just a little fight. Nothing you or my daughter need to worry about. I'll be out of here soon. Well,hopefully before that child arrives."
"You know,I may sound crazy when I say this,but this wasn't my idea."
"I know."
"She really is worried about you."
"And as much as I hate to admit it,she hates me."
"Well,she did for a time when you were gone. And then this happened."
"You want to know why the reason I dropped her off with you?"
"Yes I do Jack."
"Because.I wanted to see her mother's gravesite one more time."
"Oh. I see."
"I wanted her to stop grieving for her mother so much,so I left her with you."
"I'm glad you did."
"You're only saying that because you're my daughter's husband."
"No Jack. I'm saying that because I have to get over Elizabeth. I needed to find someone else or was going to do something terrible."
"So that's the reason why you were in the dark alley all by yourself eh?"
"Jack,she killed herself 5 months ago."
"How?"
"Drowned. She must've done it while I was asleep. She didn't even tell me goodbye."
"I'm sorry Will."
"It's ok Jack. I have a new love in my life now. And I'm glad."
"Has she been in any pain yet?"
"Yes. A little."
"I can tell."
"She was in pain this morning. I rushed home from work early to make sure she was ok."
"Good. Was she ok?"
"She was sitting in bed reading a book."
"Those pains are going to get worse Will."
"Yes I know. I promised her I was going to take care of her. And I am."
"Good. That's what I want to hear."
"She's going to be fine Jack."
"Knowing how much strength she has in her."
"Well,I had better go. She's waiting for me."
"Oh and Will?"
"Yes Jack?"
"Make sure she doesn't drink any rum ok?"
He smiled. "Ok Jack.
