Let Me Go
Jade stayed in Jack's room after he left her there, thinking about Joseph. If the truth be told, the truth that she had never told anyone, she was very lucky. Jade was very lucky that she wasn't the mother of Joseph's child. Because in the time while he was courting with her, in the heat of things, one after noon, she had lost her virginity to Joseph. There were a few weeks when she thought she was pregnant, but she had been saved.
Jack didn't like this William character the more Jade told of him. And now, as he guided his ship, he had a growing suspicion that William Hant and Jade's father had something to do with the murder of Joseph. He decided not to think of it though, and he hummed a song that he was taught by a girl who was stranded on an island with him. Jack noticed something on the horizon, very small, but there. "Annamaria." He called. "Captain?" "We have company." The dot on the horizon was in fact two ships, with white sails, heading in the direction of the pearl. "They'll have a fun time trying to catch us." Annamaria said, and walked away.
Jade decided to see what was happening on deck, so she went up into the blazing sun. Since she had been on the ship, with no one to carry around her parasol and fan for her, she realized just how excruciatingly hot it was. She had decided to skip her elegant dresses, usually the heaviest, and just wear her simpler, thinner, cooler, clothes. She had also started pulling her hair up with her ribbons. "What are those?" Jade asked Jack, pointing to the white figures on the horizon. "Ships, coming to rescue you." "Ha!" Jade said, running to the side of the ship and peering over the edge to get a better look. "I told you they would come!" She looked back. The wind whipped across her face and Jade was happy for it, everything felt much cooler with the wind.
Jack watched her lean over the side of the ship, holding on to the netting the crew used to climb when taking down the sails. A look of triumph was on her face. The wind blew a yellow ribbon out of her hair and her hair was set loose on her face. Something about her was- different. He couldn't quite place his finger on it but Jack noticed something about her he hadn't seen before.
Jade moved her hair out of her face feeling annoyed. Her yellow ribbon was her favorite and it was blown out to sea. She walked back over to Jack. "Let me go and things will be much easier for you." She said. "No." "Let me leave." "NO." Jade walked back down to Sparrow's room without another word. She had felt awkward around him then. Awkward and vulnerable. And she didn't know why.
