Chapter 7 Enjoy!
CHAPTER 7: I'll Stay, To See If This Works
It took a week for the Pearl to reach the next port and during that time Jack and Connor would talk more about the situation at hand and how to fix it. But Connor had yet to return to their cabin or state whether or not she would be leaving the Pearl. So when the ship docked at port everyone felt the tension that came from Jack.
Connor stepped onto the deck, bag in hand. She looked around, noticing the stares the coming from the crew. She spotted Jack staring at her from the railing. Ignoring the others she marched over to him.
"Your leaving then. After the past week I thought ye had changed your mind." Jack said, staring out at the sea.
"I just don't know if you can change Jack." Connor whispered.
"Ye won't know if you leave. I'm not a player anymore luv, I found someone I love and will never hurt. . .again. You can't walk away from love darling, so don't try."
"Jack, I don't know. I'm not running away from love, I'm not even fighting it. I just don't know if I can do this. I'm sorry." She turned and began to walk away.
Jack watched her, not knowing what to say, what to do. All he knew was he couldn't lose her. He ran after her and caught her as she reached the dock. He grabbed her arm and spun her around to face him. Not giving her a chance to respond he kissed her, passionately. It was their first real kiss since Port Royal. He poured all of his emotion into this kiss and was more than pleased when she threw her arms around his neck and kissed back.
They broke apart for the need of air, and there they stood. On a dock, in some port, arms wrapped around each other, both breathing hard.
"Please stay, I'm begging ye." He said quietly, placing a kiss on her forehead.
"How can I say no to that." She calmly replied.
Jack let a smile unseen for days come out. His gold teeth shined in the sun. He kissed Connor again before leading her to the cabin.
Connor knew where he was heading and stopped him. "Jack, we're just making up. Not everything is settled yet. Wait until I know for sure if this is going to work." She said, pushing him away.
"It's going to work luv, I promise ye that."
"I hope so." She quietly said.
Short, I know, but I'm busy and this is as good a place to stop as any.
