The story will be coming to an end soon, but not right now. I'm thinking
about a sequel when this story is done. Happy reading and on with the
story...
Chapter 19 (Robin) I felt myself hit the water. I tried to tread-water, but the waves were too rough. Then I heard another splash. Was someone coming to save me?
"Luv, where are ye?" I heard someone yell to me. JACK!
"JACK!" I waved my arms furiously. "OVER...HERE...!"
I tried to keep my head above the water, I kept swallowing seawater. I was getting tired, but finally I stopped kicking and started sinking. I could tell this would be the end, I would never get home, I would never see my friends again, I knew I was a goner.
But suddenly, someone grabbed me. They were pulling me to the top. It was Jack! He had me over his shoulder and was swimming to the top.
He laid me on deck. He was soaking wet, but didn't seem to mind. He held my wrist, probably checking for a pulse.
He picked me up wedding style and brought me to his cabin. "Liz, AnaMaria, I need assistance NOW!" Elizabeth came in with a steamy mug. AnaMaria came in with a nightgown in her arms. Jack pulled down the sheets and blanket of his bed, while AnaMaria threw off shirt and jeans and threw the night gown on me.
I sat up drinking the warm-liquid (I couldn't tell what it was) from the mug. Soon Elizabeth and AnaMaria left, leaving Jack and I alone in his cabin. He stroked my hair lovingly.
"Ye all right, luv?"
"I think so. But if it weren't for you, I would be in Davy Jones's locker."
Jack chuckled. "Davy Jones's locker? Ye actually believe in that stuff?"
I forced a smile. "Uh,...yeah...I guess." No, I actually don't.
"Just kiddin' luv. Because of Gibbs, I kinda' do too."
"You know, this is the second time in a week you saved me."
"Yer point?"
"I need to thank-you some-how."
"No thanks required. I did it because I love ye."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?"
"Nothin'. Nothin'. I said nothin'."
I didn't believe him. I could have sworn I heard him say..., oh never mind.
Suddenly, the door opened. "Cap'n, the storm be over. Also thee Dauntless be off thee Starboard bow."
"Thank-you Gibbs, I will be up in a little while."
Gibbs left and Jack turned his attention to me.
"Well, luv, I have a ship to commander and a girl to save. I expect ye to get some rest and to stay here. No funny business, stay here."
He leaned in and kissed me gently on the lips, then left the cabin. I felt a shiver down my spine.
I quickly got up as soon as I heard the door close. "Sorry Jack," I said out loud "But, I can't let you go alone after kissing me like that."
I threw on some of Jack's spare clothes and an old tri-corner hat. I grabbed a strip of leather from the side-table. I tied my hair and hide it under the hat. Then I walked out of the room, avoiding anyone's glance. Then I slipped on to one of the row-boats.
Ok, Jack loves Robin. Jack kisses Robin. Robin sneaks on to one of row- boats to help Jack commander the ship and save Ella. What will happen? Only I know! Have fun reading and R&R!
