Jen stood up and looked around. She seemed to be all alone. "What's going on?" she asked, expecting to hear an answer, but there was nothing. "This is too strange," she added then felt the pain of the scars and burns increase on her. "No…" she uttered as she slowly sank to the ground. "I can't be dieing, but this pain is too great for anyone to withstand," Jen complained as she lay on the ground.

She then felt a hand brush her hair out of her face and an arm pulling her into a body.

"Shh… everything is going to be fine," said a reassuring voice, now holding her in their lap.

"Jim?" Jen uttered as she opened her eyes to see his. "Everything will not be fine. I'm… I'm dieing."

"No you aren't. You're just resting. Now, go back to sleep, and when you wake up you will be fine," said Jim, and Jen closed her eyes.

Lying in a bed, Jen opened her eyes and looked around to see Jim asleep in his chair with his head on his pile of maps on his desk. She smiled then looked at herself and saw that all of her scars and burns were gone. The strangest expression then came across her face wondering how that could have happened. "I'm glad to see you are up, lass," said Silver walking in, and Morph went over to her and brushed against her cheek. "Jimbo was up all night waiting for you to awake, but I told him to get some rest and you would be fine in the morning," added Silver. "So how are ya feelin'?"

"Just a little weak, but not in any pain," responded Jen.

"That's good to hear," said Silver with a smile. "We were all starting to get worried about you."

"Worry about me? You shouldn't have," said Jen joking a bit, and Silver laughed.

"Why shouldn't we worry?" asked Jim, now sitting up with a smile on his face as he looked at Jen who was now blushing.

"Well, I better go tell everyone that you are fine now. Take care of her, Jimbo," said Silver, and he took his leave with Morph and closed the door behind him.

Jim went over to Jen and sat down beside her. "I'm so glad you are awake," he said and put his arms around her.

Jen hugged him back and smiled. "I had this strange dream last night. I thought I was dieing from the pain of the wounds, and you came over to me and reassured me that I would be fine and to just sleep, and I would be better when I woke up," explained Jen.

"Really? Well then, next time I'll tell you it's just a dream, and you should wake up," said Jim with a grin on his face.

Jen laughed a little and rested her head on his pillow, looking up into his eyes, and he looked back into her eyes. Jim then leaned down and kissed her. She smiled at him then asked him something that was baffling her, "Jim, how did all of my wounds disappear so quickly?"

Jim got a confused look over his face then said, "I don't know. We were up on deck when all of a sudden, a black sheet flew over you, and I thought it was a sign that you were dead, until the sheet turned white and flew away. Next thing I knew was I looked at you, and you looked as if you had never been touched before. It was as if some sort of magic was keeping you alive."

"Maybe it's because you love me so much, that that is what is keeping me alive," said Jen with a smile, and Jim smiled back. "I guess I still have a while before I'm needed elsewhere."

"Because you are needed here with me, right now, and you'll never be needed anywhere else ever again," said Jim, and Jen blushed.

"I never want to leave you, Jim Hawkins," said Jen, and she leaned up and kissed him.

"You never will," replied Jim with a smile on his face. "As long as I'm alive, I will keep watch over you and make sure nothing happens to you."

"Promise?" asked Jen.

"No," said Jim, and Jen looked down. Jim then lifted her chin up and looked into her eyes. "I swear it on my life."

Tears filled Jen's eyes, and she hugged Jim. "I love you," she whispered.

"I love you too," he whispered back then said, "When we reach the Montressore Space Port, I will take you back to the Benbow Inn where you can stay with me for as long as you like."

Jen smiled as Jim let a huge grin appear on his face. "Thank you. I'd like that very much," she responded.

Finally, we have a happy ending to a chapter, but how long can that last with Jim's luck?
