Part 15
"NO YOU CANNOT HAVE ANY RUM!!!" Will yelled at Jack. "Besides, if you want to be a gentleman for Lorilie you're going to have to learn to live for at least 3 seconds without rum. You are more natural when you're sober."
"Well, she liked me when I was drunk.why can't I just be a drunk gentleman?"
"Shut up Jack."
Jack was too sober to argue. "Yes sir."
Meanwhile, in Jack's room, Lorilie and Izzy were talking. "What do you see in Will anyway? He has no lips!"
"Yes.but it's what's below the waist that counts." Izzy giggled.
"What do you think they're doing in there?"
Izzy shrugged. "Talking about manly things?"
"Like who has the longest toenail?"
They laughed. Then Jack walked into the room and for once in her life Lorilie hadn't seen jack sway as he walked. He had clothes on too! That couldn't have been Jack! His hair was in a ponytail and he bowed as he approached Izzy.
"Good after noon ladies." Jack said in a deep yet intoxicating voice.
"Why hello, captain." Izzy said approaching Jack.
Lorilie pushed Izzy out of the room and locked the door. "Jack?"
"Yes, lu.I mean miss."
"Is that really you?"
"Yes, it's the new me." Jack held his hands up as if he were going to say 'Taa Daa!'
Lorilie inspected him. He was clean!! He smelled different; she couldn't detect any rum at all. "What happened to you?"
"I have come to send my ape.apple.appear.apollo.apologies."
"Still having trouble with long words?" She said slowly approaching him. She looked into his eyes and they looked different. They had no smudges of charcoal around them.
"I'm working on that." Jack put his hands on her shoulders, trying as hard as he could to fight the urges that were consuming his insides.
Lorilie laughed and said, "Apology accepted." She pushed him onto the bed and kissed him, but he didn't return the kiss.
"You don't want to be doing that, luv.bloody manners! I can't take it anymore!" He took his hair out of his ponytail and put is bandana back on (I did that for you Lori).
"I like the old Jack better," she said. "Although you look cute with that ponytail." She started to kiss him again, until he interrupted her again.
"Wait!" Jack got off the bed and lifted the mattress. He pulled out a bottle of rum. "Never again!" he said as he looked at the bottle. He bit the top and pulled out the cork with his teeth.
Two bottles of rum later, and one room away Will and Izzy were listening to Jack and Lorilie. " I suppose he didn't like my lesson." Will said to Izzy.
"I'm surprised he actually lasted that long with out his rum."
"Yes, but it wasn't easy." Will remembered when Jack was sober; he didn't seem like himself.he seemed somehow, incomplete. "I suppose Jack and rum go together like.like.like me and you."
"Flattery will get you no where, Mr. Turner." She giggled.
In the morning all was calm.well until they brought up the subject of where they should go.
"I'm going home." Said Teresa.
"I'll go with you!" Said Jarell.
"Where's Michelle?"
"She wrote me a letter," Adriana said. "Basically, she ran away to be with Kilolo and the cat."
Everyone laughed, but until Adriana said, "Sam and I want to get married!"
Silence.
"Are you sure?" asked Teresa.
"As sure as.I'm sure!"
"Okay.so then where are you going to stay?"
"With Sam, we will plan the wedding here, and you are all invited!"
"O a wedding? I love weddings. More rum for me!" Jack said.
"Will there be a bachelor party!" Jarell asked.
Sam looked at Adriana for approval, but she shook her head.
"Some one is whipped!" yelled Jarell.
"Indeed." Said Teresa with a wicked smile.
Teresa and Jarell left later that day, and Adriana and Sam were packing their things.
"Pity you can't join us." Said Lorilie.
"I know, but we'll see each other at the wedding!"
After they left, Jack set sail for nowhere in particular humming a very catchy tune. "Now bring on that horizon."
THE END?
