CHAPTER 7
Picking up where we just left off…And then something you didn't expect happened, Jack opened his mouth and said something you would've never imagined him to say-"I…I love you".
You
opened your eyes slowly.. you saw the ceiling of your cabin. You sat up
quickly, then the truth hit you… It had all been a dream! You hit
yourself on the head lightly. "damnit" you said to yourself softly. First you
couldn't stop thinking of him, and now you were dreaming of him. "That's just
great", you thought to yourself. You sat on your bed, trying to remember the
dream. But all you could remember was three small words- "I love you". You got up
and brushed your hair, trying to get it out of your mind. What had made this
silly dream occur? You turned away and walked out of the door of the cabin, and
went outside onto the deck. As you walked out onto the deck your hair flew in
the wind with the peaceful breeze. It made you feel so much more calmer. You
closed your eyes, and inhaled. The smell of the sea surrounding you. You opened
your eyes slowly, and the first person you saw was Jack. You shrieked and
jumped a step backwards knocking Mr. Cotton over. You apologised quickly and
helped him up with Jack laughing in the background. You now felt like a real
idiot, and you were blushing madly. "Sorry for startling you luv" Jack said
walking over. "That's ok" you said still blushing. There was an awkward silence
for a moment, you looked around nervously trying to bring up a conversation you
turned to your last resort-"sooo…" you said not knowing what else to say. Jack
obviously had nothing to say, or couldn't be bothered. You couldn't think of
anything to say, so you slowly turned away and walked off leaving Jack still
standing there. You felt really bad for just walking away, so you turned around
hoping to see him still standing there, but he wasn't there anymore. You sighed
and carried on.
You went below deck to find something to eat, and you eventually you find
something-stale bread and some apples. It wasn't the best but you were hungry.
After you had finished eating, you decided to go and help out. If you were
going to pirate you had to learn, so you found Anamaria and helped her. Your
first task was to swab the deck, which wasn't really exciting for you, but it
helped you keep your mind off Jack. You were starting to become good friends
with Anamaria, you had learnt a lot from her. For the rest of the day you
helped with other things around the ship. It was fun for you, and you enjoyed
it. By the end of the day you were tired, so you decided to take a short break.
As you sat down at your usual place on the side of the ship you looked up at
the sky. The sun was setting, but it was covered by grey clouds. That didn't
look to good to you. And soon enough it started to pour down rain. The sky
became dark and in the distance you could see lightning. This really wasn't
looking good.
Soon enough, the lightning became worse and the rain became heavier. You were
now drenched, and so were the rest of the crew. As you looked around you could
see the rest of the crew working away. And Jack was standing up at the helm,
trying to control the ship in the disastrous storm. You ran up the helm, trying
not to get knocked over by anyone else but it was hard with the constant water
coming in and knocking you over or into someone else. Eventually you made it up
there. You had to hold on to Jack to stop you from falling over, "What do we do
now?" you yelled to Jack over the sound of the crushing waves. He didn't reply
for a minute, trying hard to concentrate. He had a serious look on his face.
And then suddenly you heard were pushed over as you heard a large BANG! Jack
ran over to the side of the ship, and returned momentarily. "What the hell was
that?!" you yelled again. "We just hit the reef" Jack said with a worried
expression on his face. You ran over to the side of the ship, and there it
was-a hole in the side of the ship. It wasn't very large but it looked like it
could do some damage. You spun around
and saw Jack still at the helm, battling the storm and trying his hardest to
keep the ship under control. You turned around again and suddenly you were
sprayed with a large amount of water knocking you over. You got up quickly and
wiped the water from your eyes. You saw Anamaria run up to Jack, "We're not
going to make it! We should abandon ship!" she yelled at the top of her voice.
Jack now looked as worried as ever, "she can hold a bit longer!". Abandon ship?
You thought to yourself as you were sprayed with water again.
The storm didn't last for that long, and luckily enough the pearl made it
trough. You woke up the next morning and immediately ran outside to find Jack
once again standing at the helm. You were greeted with a "morning luv" as per
usual. But this time he had more to say-"we shall soon be arrivin' in Port
Royale". You gave him a confused looked, "Port Royale?" you asked him
curiously. "Aye" Jack nodded, "we shall need to mend the hole in the ship". You
nodded in agreement, and headed below deck to eat. You didn't eat much for
breakfast. You stomach was churning in nervousness. Out of all places to go you
really didn't want to go back to Port Royale, for not only did you leave your
family there-but also your fiancée. Will Turner was his name, he was a tall
handsome man with dark hair and chocolate eyes that would make you melt. He had
not been able to accept the fact that you wanted to move away from Port Royale
to a place as vile as Tortuga. So you followed your heart and left him. But, it
was not known if your relationship had ended or not. So Will still might have
the idea of you marrying him, and going back there and most probably seeing him
really was nerve racking for you. Not only seeing him, your whole family and
all your friends too. You imagined them to have looks of disgust on their
faces.
Soon you were joined by Anamaria, and all your thoughts on Will and your family
drifted away as you two were in deep conversation…about Jack. "So do ye like
him?" Anamaria said curiously with a slight grin on her face. You thought for a
second, "I don't know. Should I?" you replied. Anamaria's grin grew even wider,
"Well with the way you stare at him I thought you would". "I do not always
stare at him!" you said blushing furiously. Anamaria laughed at this. You shook
your head and laughed a little too. "Just don't get to worried about it, Jacks
a good man" Anamaria said smiling as she walked out the door. Worried about
what? You thought as a million different emotions rushed through you. Is it
true that you were always staring at Jack? But you didn't have enough time to
think about it as your thoughts were once again interrupted by Jack storming
in. You looked at him. "We have arrived in Port Royale and we are to go ashore"
he said as he looked at you. You were doing it again- you were staring at him!
You looked away and nodded. You got up and followed him onto the deck.
As you walked onto the docks, it had never felt so good to be on dry land. As
the crew scurried off to look for
supplies you were left with Jack. You and Jack roamed the streets, not saying a
word. As you saw the busy people running around, you felt happy to be home. But
then something caught your eye-it was Will and he was walking in your
direction. He had not seen you yet among the crowd of people. Not knowing what
to do, you let out your hair and quickly grabbed Jack's hat off his head and
put it on your own. You looked down at the ground as he walked past you, trying
not to make eye contact. Will walked past you. He turned back and looked at you
for a sec as you continued to walk on with Jack. He shook his head and carried
on. "Phew! That was close!" you said as you and Jack continued to walk through
the street. Jack gave you a look of confusion, "close from what?". You knew
this was going to take a long time to explain, so you and Jack headed down to
the beach were you sat next to him still wearing his hat. "So tell me about
what you were trying to hide from just then back in that street." Jack said,
sounding curious. You hesitated for a minute, you didn't know what to say. You
sighed and looked out onto the water, the sun now setting. "A couple of years
ago, I left this place to move to Tortuga. My parents were not pleased" you
said still looking out onto the water. "But not only did I leave my family and
friends. I left someone else". Jack looked confused, but he was still
listening. You turned and looked at him, "I left my fiancée".
