Jack had eventually given in to Jackie. She just followed him around until he got tired of it and gave in.

While they were walking to his ship, Jack got a good look at the girl who was supposed to be his daughter. Well, she does have the same color hair as me, he thought. My nose.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Jackie asked.

"Like what, love?"

"Like you're tryin' to find out wha's wrong with me."

"I ain't lookin' at you like that."

Jackie sniffed.

"You look like me."

"Do not."

"Ya do too. Yir hair's the same color, yir nose's the same as mine."

"I guess. Ma says me eyes're the same color as yours." Jackie shrugged. Wow. I'm the daughter of a cap'n. I doubt he'll keep me on his ship. Won'er what 'e'll do wi' me. Probly drop me off in a orphanage somewhere' Before she could stop it, one tear rolled down her cheek.

"You cryin'?"

Jackie quickly wiped her face off with her sleeve. "No."

"Are too."

"Are not."

"Are too."

"I am NOT!" Jackie "accidentally" stepped on his foot, making him curse.

"Wha' was tha' for?"

"Wha' was wha'?" She said, looking up at him. She widened her eyes to make her look innocent.

"Ne'er min'."

Jack found them a place to sleep, and the next morning they headed off to the Pearl.

"D… Cap'n?" Jackie had started to call him Da, but couldn't bring herself to do it.

"Aye."

"What're you gonna do wi' me?"

"I be takin' you to Port Royal, love."

"Oh." Jackie fell silent as they walked. I knew it she thought. I knew he was gonna drop me in a orphanage somewhere. While she was thinking, they had made it to the docks.

"There she be, love. The Black Pearl, the fastest ship in the Caribbean."

"Oh."

"Ye like 'er?" Jack's voice was full of pride.

"Aye." Jackie said.

They were standing on the deck. The crew was lined up in front of them, eyeing Jackie dubiously.

"This is Jackie. She be sailin' wi' us to Port Royal."

"'Tis bad luck to have a woman aboard ship, Cap'n. Even a miniature one." Gibbs said.

Anamaria glared at him. "Even worse luck not to," She said.

"Aye." Jack agreed.

Jackie smiled at Anamaria and then at Jack.

"Anamaria?" Jack called.

"Aye?"

"She be bunkin' wi' you, savvy?"

"Aye."

Lunarianprincess: Thanks for the review. I actually don't know what's going to happen, I thought it up one night, and it wouldn't leave me alone. I guess that's what happens when you put too much sugar on your cereal right before bed… lol.

Crazy Llama: Thanks for the review! I know Giselle holding Jack's ear is a little strange, but I couldn't help my self… Hehe.
