When the Coast Guard ship finally docked in New York, Jack looked around him and noticed some of the people that had survived Titanic standing around the docks. Of course he didn't really know these people, but he could tell from the looks of them that what had just happened to them was really affecting them. He slowly walked down the ramp and noticed the kid handing around newspapers about the sinking. He looked around in his pockets for a couple of coins and came up with nothing. How was he supposed to start a new life without any money? He slowly turned around, taking in all of New York and noticed a sign in a restaurant off to his left that says "Now Hiring". He smiles to himself and heads into the restaurant.
Rose had caught a taxi with some of the money she had gotten from the necklace. She had him drive her around New York until she found a good motel that she could sleep in for the night. She didn't dare go to any of the fancier places for the chance that Cal or her mom might be there. She was ready to live her life and she didn't want anyone ruining it. She just wished she could have Jack back. He's dead, she told herself. It was now just her on her own. As she opened the door to her room in the motel, she noticed a small shopping plaza across the street and wandered over. She looked through the clothes and finally found 3 new outfits that she could use until she got herself settled. Then she would do some real shopping. As she walked out of the store she thought she saw a man walking a couple of blocks down the street that looked a lot like Jack. She shook her head and told herself to get a grip and walked back over to her motel, closing the door behind her as she went in.
