Part 26The smile had never left Gin's face. Only Sneaks knew what had really put that there and between the two they were happy of it. Sneaks herself had run off to help with the planning of Gin's 'jail break'.
Gin sat in her small dressing room inside the church alone. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and did a mental check list for no apparent reason. Shes running short and Jack still wasn't here. Gin looked at another chair in the room, which held her purse. She got up and walked to the chair kneeling in front of it and opening the purse. She reached into it and pulled out the small gun.
Gin walked back to her seat and sat in front of the mirror once again. Gin opened the gun and checked for the bullet to be in place. Satisfied she closed it and held the gun to her temple watching her reflection in the mirror as she closed her eyes.
"It'd be a shame to do that to such a beautiful vision" came a voice from behind heminutes" he called
"Okay" she called back with some relief Gin sighed.

Gin's eyes shot open and she placed the gun on the vanity before her before spinning in her chair.
"Way to wait for the last minute, Jack" she replied
She watched as he finished sliding through the window and into her room.
"You don't think I'd let you marry him do you" he questioned
"I wasn't going to let myself marry him."
Jack walked up to her placing his hand over the gun.
"Did you think I'd let you do that"
"I was starting to wonder."
"Well Sneaks is creating a distraction and Sage is prepared to divert the gang in the wrong direction when we run for it."
"Sage knows"
"It's kinda hard for him not to"
Gin nodded.
Jack looked around the room quickly.
"Help me prop that chair against the door knob" he ordered
Together they moved almost all of the furniture to the door where it would block almost anyone. However both knew it would only buy them time. Jack went out the window first and then helped her up and out.
"Alright now I need you to shoot that gun in there so they think you actually did it."
Gin nodded as she cocked it and pulled the trigger. Jack quickly closed the window and the two were off through the streets of New York.
Gin was laughing by the time the two plowed their way into the back entrance of Irving Hall. Jack was laughing right with her as he pushed her against one of the walls and kissed her.
"I never got to tell you. You look beautiful." He whispered
"Thank you" she whispered back as he kissed her again
"Jack what did you do" asked Medda from the top of the stairs
The two pulled apart and Gin sub consciously straightened her dress.
"You couldn't tell me you were getting married before you did it" Medda asked as she walked down the stairs
"I didn't get married"
"Then why is she dressed-wait she's that-you stole the girl from her wedding"
Gin nodded with a smile.
"Well at least she's happy about it" voiced Medda with a laugh
"We kinda need a place to hide out till things cool down out there." Jack stated
"Take her to the spare dressing room. Though you two have to behave." Medda said with a wink
"Her brother should be coming anytime now."
"I'll send him back when he gets here." Medda promised as she ushered the two towards the back of the Hall.
