~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the days wore on, Renee allowed herself to forget about Jack and attraction and all such things, and focused on being a valuable member of the crew. While the thoughts of Jack, his handsome smile, and what Will had said still lurked in the back of her mind, she pushed them away and concentrated on her newest task, cooking dinner for a whole crew. It was a handful. Fortunately, she had Ana to help her, and they always laughed and had a good time. As good a time, that is, as one can have cooking beef and potatoes for a whole crew. Renee's hands were beginning to callous where she held the knife that peeled a hundred or so potatoes a day. However, she didn't mind, because, at the end of every day, she went up to Jack's cabin and felt his arm wrapped protectively around her stomach, keeping her back close to his warm chest. It just made her feel safe, and happy. She felt like someone appreciated her which was more than she could say of her life in Port Royale, where she'd just been some doll for her parents to dress up and marry off. Every morning she woke up to Jack's sleeping form. She would just laugh and get up. Don't think for a second that on any of these nights Jack didn't try to seduce her, though. He was always smirking or making some comment that only got his slapped or occasionally elbowed in the stomach if they happened to be laying down at the time. He would just laugh it off and go about his daily life. He was used to it. One day, when Ana had excused her from doing the dishes, Renee found Jack up on the deck watching the sunset all alone. As she walked up behind him, she began to speak.
"Watching the sunset all alone? That's no fun, Captain, if it's not too bold to say."
Jack turned around and smiled at her. "Aye love. Care to join me?" She smiled and walked up beside him, taking in the breathtaking view. The sun ahd painted the sky an amazing color, mixing red, pink, orange, yellow and gold. She gasped a little bit, as she had never seen such a picture. Jack took her momentary shock to his advantage and walked around behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his chin on her shoulder. "Gorgeous, is it not?" She just nodded a little. Jack was so very close….and he smelled so….good. Of salt, and rum…it was quite intoxicating. Soon the sun ahd completely disappeared and the two retired to Jack's cabin. As they settled into bed, Jack spoke.
"Renee, love?"
"Yes Jack?"
Do you truly like it here on the Pearl?"
"Truthfully Jack? Yes, I love it here. I've never been so happy or laughed so much in my life as I have in the past few days. I really feel like I belong here. Every day I get up and There the sea is, all spread out before me. And every night I go to sleep-"
"With me!" He cut her off, grinning madly. She slapped him playfully.
"Indeed. That, and with the feeling that I've done a good day's work and Im…..I'm home." She finished.
"Aye, love. That's how I feel about me Pearl too. Well…Goodnight then."
Renee snuggled down under the covers as a breeze blew in from the little window. Jack pulled her closer and she was suddenly quite warm. She closed her eyes. "Good night Jack…"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Renee was suddenly awoken by a loud banging noise. She sat bolt upright to find Jack already staring in horror at the remains of the cabin door. As the dust settled, she saw a crewmember, though she couldn't remember his name, standing there brandishing a sword. Before Jack had a chance to leap up and grab his won, The man's sword was at Renee's throat, pressing hard into her flesh.
"Surrender the Pearl to me, Jack, or the girl dies."
"Robbins, you don't want to do this…" Jack said in a warning tone. Robbins, that was his name, Renee thought.
"No, I really think I do…" Robbins spat, pressing the blade harder. "And just to show ye that I'm not kiddin'…" He pressed the blade a tiny bit harder and it bit into the soft skin on Renee's neck, causing crimson blood to spill onto the bed.
"Renee!" Jack breath cought in his throat as he choked out the word in horror. "Fine! You can take the Pearl! Just don't kill her man! Let her go!" A satified smile crossed Robbins's face as he removed the blade and directed them both out onto the deck, where the entire crew was tied up, including Will. He gasped when he saw Renee's blood riling after the three of them.
"Off the plank then Jack, girl." Robbins directed. Renee could faintly make out an island in the distance. Will called out to her but he only earned himself a blow to the stomach from Robbins, who then decided that Will would be going with them. One by one he pushed the three of them off the plank, Renee still bleeding heavily, into the swirling black abyss that is the ocean.
