Ok, so I know that Jack isn't supposed to be emotional. Also, I know that Ryn isn't exactly your normal, 17th or 18th century girl. Please stop harrassing me about it. That's why it's called fan FICTION! Plus, I do spellcheck, so please stop telling me about that, as well.

Finally, it is done! I know it's not that long, but I really hate typing. Oh, well. It was worth it! Here's the final lchapter and the Epilogue of "Who Does Jack Have?"

Chapter Three

"When I was a child, I lived in Madrid, Spain, with my mother and siblings. We had a fine life. There was usually enough to eat, and I never had to share a bed with anyone." Jack said as he laid back and Ryn began to smooth his hair back. "Then, we lost money. I don't know how. We had to move in with a man my mother knew. He made my siblings and I do all the chores around the house. My mother became his," Jack glanced at Ryn, "prostitute. He treated all of us horribly. One night, there was a fire. Another man, who disliked the one we were living with, threw a torch on our roof, and it caught on fire. Everyone except my sister and I was in there." Ryn gasped. "My sister became a nun. I, obviously, became a pirate. Almost every night,I dream about it."

Ryn looked down. She would never have guessed that something that bad had happened to Jack. "I'm so sorry, Jack."

"Thank you, Ryn." he said softly. "Now, you'd better go get some sleep. Tomorrow, I'm going to teach you how to sail."

"What, I can't stay here?" Ryn asked. "I mean, just in case you have another bad dream and I need to comfort you."

"No, thanks, love."

Ryn sighed and went back into her cabin. Her last thoughts were of how handsome Jack was.

The next morning, Jack went into Ryn's cabin in order to wake her up. He looked at her as she slept. She's beautiful. he thought. Last night, after she had left, Jack had not been able to get to sleep. He had been to busy thinking about what would have happened had she stayed. Now those feelings were beginning to emerge again. He cursed himself softly, crossed hurriedly to her bed, and shook her awake. Ryn came o and saw Jack standing over her.

She shrunk back from the wild look in his eyes. "Y, Y, Yes?"

"Come on." he said roughly and walked out of the room.

Ryn dressed and walked up to the deck. There, she saw Jack standing at the helm, muttering to himself. Even though it was early, Ryn saw that almost everyone, including Elizabeth, on deck doing something.

Ryn wen to the rail and stood there, looking out over the sea. She refused to think about how forward she had been in Jack 's cabin.

Suddenly, a hand touched her shoulder. Ryn turned and found herself staring into Jack's eyes. She was taken aback by the raw emotion in his eyes. Then, Jack blinked and it went away.

"Are ye ready to learn how to crew a ship?" he asked her.

"Oh, yes!" exclaimed Ryn. Jack led her off and started to teach.

Around noon, the whole crew stopped for lunch.

"Attention crew of the Black Pearl!" Jack yelled. "We have a new crew member today. Her name is Ryn! Three cheers for Ryn!"

Hip, hip hooray! Hip, hip hooray! Hip, hip hooray!" The crew yelled in unison. Everyone then ate.

After lunch, to about 7, Ryn learned even more about sailing. Then everyone ate dinner and drank.

For Ryn, the days went by quickly, between sailing and thinking about Jack. She was not able to stop thinking about him! Hi hair, his eyes, his body, everything!

One night, about 4 months after the night with Jack, Ryn heard crying again.

She went out into the hall to see where it was from, and, sure enough, it was from Jack's cabin.

Ryn went in and saw Jack thrashing about in bed.She sat on the edge and began to soothe him.

"W, W, What!" Jack said, sitting bolt upright. "Don't tell me, I was crying again." Ryn nodded. "Well, are ye going to stay and comfort me all night?"

Ryn blushed as she said, "Cap'n Sparrow! That kind of talk is unwelcome with me!"

Jack chuckled. "You're on a pirate ship, love! Any kind of talk goes!"

Ryn laughed. "All right." she said. She climbed in beside him.

"'Allo love." he said as his lips brushed her neck. They moved upwards until Jack and Ryn were eye to eye.

"Jack?" Ryn breathed.

"Yes, love?"

"I, I think I love ye."

Jack laughed softly. "I know I love ye."

They kissed with a hunger...

In the morning, Ryn woke up and stretched contentedly. Then, she remembered last night. She blushed and pulled the tangled sheets higher on her body.

"So yer awake, love." Jack said from his chair. "I have something to ask ye. It's kind of... embarrassing."

"Go ahead." Ryn urged.

"Well, would ye marry me? I know it's kind of soon, but...

"Of course!" Ryn interrruped.

They kissed and Ryn went to plan with Elizabeth.

Epilogue

About 1 ½ years late., Jack held his child, Lorraine, tightly in her arms. Lorrie had Ryn's

eyes and hair, and Jack's smile. Jack looked over at Elizabeth, who had a new son.

He looked up at the crow's nest where his wife, Ryn, was looking for Commodore Norrington. She noticed him looking at her and smiled and waved.

Ryn climbed down and walked over to Jack and Lorrie.

"Well, now, love, what d'ye say to lunch? I had Cotton make us some food."

"Cotton?" Ryn said. "You had Cotton make us food?"

"Aye."

"Oh, God!" Ryn said as she rolled her eyes and took her baby.

"Come along." said Jack as he grabbed his wife's hand and took her below decks.

I've got a great life. Jack thought as he looked at his ship, family and friends.
