CHAPTER 7: HAPPILY EVER AFTER
Connor had been right about Michael. He had apologized time and time again and had done anything possible to make it up to her. She had forgiven him and they had begun to reschedule the wedding. Deciding that a small wedding was nice, they scheduled it at the end of that very week.
Connor had invited Jack, Will, and Elizabeth to come, but only Will and Elizabeth showed up. Will went with Michael to get ready, while Elizabeth and Connor got ready themselves.
"I can't believe that you left Nicole with the crew? I didn't think you would want to leave her alone just yet."
"I admit that it is hard. But this very well could be the only time that I get any peace for a while."
"Enjoy today then." Connor said as she stepped out from behind the changing curtain she had been behind.
Elizabeth smiled at her, "You look beautiful."
"It's kind of a joke, me wearing white." She walked over to full length mirror and stared at herself. There she stood in her white gown. She didn't want an actual wedding dress so she went with a simple gown, despite Elizabeth's protests. Her hair was up in a fashion that Elizabeth had chosen, though Connor hated it.
"What's wrong?" Elizabeth asked when she saw the way Connor looked at herself.
"This is supposed to be the happiest day of my life, yet I feel like I am being sent to the gallows."
"What did you expect? Your marrying a man who is not your true love."
"I know. I just wish that it was Jack I was marrying."
"It could be. You don't have to marry Michael, you can marry Jack."
"No. He doesn't want to."
"How can you say that. He kissed you the other day, said that he still loved you."
"It's almost time Liz, we should get going."
She made her way to the door, "I'm kind of glad that he isn't here to see this." She walked out of the door and was walked down the aisle.
She walked slowly, not noticing the 15 people that were there. She stood next to Michael and the priest began.
"We are gathered here today to join these two souls in holy matrimony."
Connor heard none of the words the priest said as she began to daydream about being with Jack on the Pearl. She saw herself in his arms at the helm, kissing passionately. A little boy came running up to them and Jack picked him up. The little boy looked just like her and Jack.
She was brought out of her thoughts by the priest, "Do you Connor Valentine take this man to be your lawfully wed husband, through sickness and health, till death do you part?"
Connor stood quiet for a few seconds, remembering everything that had happened over the last 2 years.
"I do." She said. She glanced over Michael's shoulder to where Will and Elizabeth sat and saw the disappointment on their faces.
"And do you Michael Marsters take this woman to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"By the powers invested in me I now pronounce you husband and"
"Stop!"
Connor turned toward the doors of the church and saw Jack walking down the aisle. He made it to the alter and stood in-between Michael and her.
"Please tell me that I am not to late." He said to the priest.
"No, but you were very close, I had one word left to say."
"Thank goodness."
"Why young man?"
Jack laughed at being called young. "I can't let this woman marry him." He turned to face Connor and took her hands.
"Connor, I can't let you do this. I don't know what to do here so I'm just going to wing it. I love you, you love me. So let's spend the rest of our lives together. I'll go with you when you need to leave and you will come with me when you get back. I don't need anything else in this world except you. I can't say anything else to ye except look into me eyes and find out for yourself."
The church was quiet as Connor stared into Jack's eyes and saw the love. She realized her folly and her need and smiled. "I am an idiot." She said.
"No your not. Your very smart."
"Yes I am. I tried to fight my feelings for you."
"Boy this seems familiar."
"Shut up and kiss me."
Jack obeyed and kissed her passionately. The guests whispered and made their way out of the church. Jack and Connor parted and looked over to Michael.
"No hard feelings mate?"
"No. This just means that we were not meant to be together."
"There is somebody else out there for you Michael."
"I know."
"Excuse us, but Will and I want to know for sure that this time neither party is leaving."
"Why Mrs. Turner why would you think that?"
"Get married, right here. I honestly don't want to live through what we just did."
"Are you joking Liz?"
"No. You will marry them won't you father?"
"Of course. That is if they want to."
"What do you say lass. You wanna become Mrs. Connor Sparrow?"
"More than anything in the world."
"Let's do it then. And if nobody minds, a quick ceremony would be appreciated."
"All right then."
"Wait! Connor take your ring off."
"Oh yeah." She took her wedding ring off and handed it back to Michael.
"Do you two have any rings for yourself?"
"Ummm. Oh yeah." Connor took a ring off her thumb and Jack took off one on his pinkie.
"Okay. Let's get married."
"Do you Connor Valentine take. . ."
"Captain Jack Sparrow."
"Captain Jack Sparrow to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"And do you Captain Jack Sparrow take Connor Valentine to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do."
"Please place the rings on each other's fingers." They did as he said. "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
Jack smiled and pulled Connor to him kissing her deeply. The pulled apart a minute later.
"Let's go home, luv."
"Yes lets."
They said their thanks to the priest and goodbye to Michael and made their way back to the Pearl, to their next adventure.
THE END. YAY FOR HAPPY ENDINGS. I AM WORKING ON THE NEXT ONE WHICH I HOPE TO HAVE UP NEXT WEEK SOMETIME IF NOT SOONER.
