Chapter 7
Ruby lay down in the sand and looked up at the sky. Jack sighed.
"I don't know how we're going to get off this island, love," Ruby stood up and looked down at him. She stepped over him and walked along the shore, she looked inland, at all the palm trees, the sun, the sand, the-
"Oof!" Ruby tripped over a crate and landed in the water. She sat up. A crate? She looked at it and pulled it onto the sand. She pulled at the wooden top until it popped open. She looked down into the open crate and smiled, pulling out four bottles of rum and walking back to where Jack was still laying in the sand. She sat down and handed him two bottles and set two bottles beside her in the sand. Jack sat up.
"Where did you get these, love?" Jack asked. Ruby pulled the cork out of one of the bottles, nodding toward where the crate was still laying on the beach. Jack nodded, pulled the cork out of his own bottle and held it up to her. Ruby clinked her bottle against his and they both took a drink.
Sephora sat in the corner of the cell she shared with Will and Diana. Katherine was above deck, still. Will was sitting beside her and Diana was on her other side, on the verge of tears. Sephora leaned against Will, closing her eyes. The ship rocked back and forth, making Sephora seasick for the first time in her life. She opened her eyes and sat up.
"Are you okay?" Will asked. Sephora shook her head and stood up, feeling dizzy. Will stood up, holding her shoulder. Her vision became blurry and Sephora felt herself fall onto the floor.
Ruby threw more wood onto their bonfire and Jack lay in the sand, finishing off his first bottle of rum. He stood up, tottering a bit and walk unsteadily over to Sephora, grabbing her by the waist, swinging her around. She laughed and finished off her own bottle, falling in the sand. Jack fell down beside her, throwing his arm around her, pulling a cork off another bottle, offering some to Ruby. She took a drink and handed it back to Jack. She snuggled a little closer, it was getting colder, even with the fire. Jack's arm went to her waist and he took another drink of rum. Ruby sighed and rested her head on Jack's shoulder as he set the bottle down in the sand.
"You know, it's pretty awful for us to be stuck on this island, Jack," Ruby said, closing her eyes. Jack looked down at her.
"Not as awful as it could be, love," She looked up at him and he smiled. Ruby looked out at the ocean as Jack picked up the bottle of rum again. She took it out of his hands and sat up. She took a drink, and, handing it back to Jack, stood up and walked to the shore, letting the waves crash over her feet. Jack stood up and followed her, putting his arms around her, the rum still in his hand. Ruby looked up at the moon and spun around his arm. Jack brought the hand that held the rum down. She looked up at him and kissed him, gently pulling the bottle of rum out of his hand. She broke away and ran up the beach with the bottle. She laughed and took a drink. Jack ran after her but she turned around so he couldn't get to the rum. He reached around her and tried to yank the rum out of her hands, but she pulled it away and ran a few steps back. He grabbed her again but he fell and pulled her down. Both of them rolled in the sand, laughing, and when they stopped, Jack was on top of her. She looked up at him and he smiled, leaning down to kiss her. She let him but soon broke away.
"Jack, I-" He looked down at her, but stopped her with a kiss.
