Mr. Gibbs now sat in Rouge's chair. Jack looked up groggily through his fingertips, his head still on the table. Apparently he had passed out from the rum and stress. He looked back and forth between his fingers then looked up at Gibbs.
"Oye, where's the girl?" he asked. Gibbs was smiling.
"She ran off. You upset her so she figured she wouldn't be in your dreads if you felt so." Gibbs replied lifting a newly filled mug of rum.
Jack sat up in his chair a little guilty that he had made her upset. "Was it something I said?" he asked quietly.
Gibbs laughed, pulling his mug from his face to speak clearly, " I think it was more than what ye said cap'n!" he laughed harder then took a swig of rum.
Jack shook his head and squinted, placing his hand over his forehead. "Was it the rum?"
Gibbs laughed into his mug. "Cap'n," Jack looked up as Gibbs spoke, "I think you should give the girl a chance."
Jack dropped his fist from his head to the table, "A chance at what? I am not her father!"
"Can you prove it?"
"Can you?"
"Aye!" Gibbs said enthusiastically, placing his mug on the table. Jack leaned in to hear Gibbs proof.
"Your father was the one who raised her."
"So?"
"Alright then, do you notice how she acts?"
"Like a lunatic?"
"What's that say about you? She has to get it from her parents."
"Her mother no doubt." Jack looked at his rings, "Tends to be the women I enjoy." By the bar Scarlett and Giselle were at the bar eyeing Jack fiercely. Jack looked over his shoulder then back to Gibbs knowing he was in for a slapping when he leaves.
"I doubt it."
"How so?"
Gibbs gestured in Jack's mannerisms, waving his hand and wide eyes. Jack glared at Gibbs, signaling to him to stop.
"Didn't she seem familiar in any way?"
"She did but you know memory. In the brain and the next moment I have a sword at my throat so my thoughts automatically change in the situation, Aye?" Jack waved his hand imitating a thought leaving his mind.
Gibbs nodded, "Well if you ask any pirate around these parts they'll tell ye about how much she reminds them of you. Very few know about your relationship though."
"You knew. Why didn't you tell me?"
"Well, some things are better left unsaid." Jack's eyes rolled in annoyance. Gibbs went on, "Actually, it was Rouge's choice to keep her identity a secret to you. She wanted to reveal her to you herself. I'm a man of my word so I kept my promise to the little lady."
Jack scoffed. "Little lady?" he repeated. "She isn't so little anymore and her manners are more like a drunken man."
Gibbs laughed. "Aye, she's grown to be quite the pirate."
Jack put his head on his fists in thought. "This is impossible."
"Impossible or improbable?" Gibbs looked closely at his captain, laughed, and killed off the last of his rum.
