Chapter 40

Water, water was the only thing that Ana saw as she stared out the windows of the Interceptor.

Ever since they had been taken aboard the Interceptor about three weeks ago she had stayed in the guest room refusing David's request that she come and stay in his room. All she ever really did was sit in a chair and look out at the sea.

Whenever anyone had come in to give her food, she would just look past them as if they weren't there. Also ever since they had been taken onto the Interceptor she had stopped eating, the only thing she had accepted was water.

She heard a knock at the door, but didn't say anything as David came in.

"Ana darling I brought you some water to drink." He offered meekly as he placed the water down beside her.

Ana didn't acknowledge his presence, she merely stared at the water.

David sat down beside her, "How long are you gonna keep this up?"

"As long as there's breath in me body." She replied maliciously as her eyes met his.

After a week David could tell that Ana had completely changed. Her clothes fit her a bit less, her skin stretched a bit against her body showing some bones, and it seemed as if she was getting weaker by the minute. Along with the physical changes there was a definite mental change in her. Along with her skinnier weaker body, she had become bitter and isolating more from the others, the fire that burned in her eyes made anyone who saw it shrink just a bit.

"Ana you have to eat." He gently demanded as he pushed the plate of soup towards her.

"The only thing I have ta do is die, and I just might get me wish soon enough." She retorted.

David shook his head gently in worry, "oh no darling you don't want that to happen."

"It's better than being here in this hellhole with you."

David winced at her poisioned retorts Damn you Madeline, he thought in anger as a knock came at the door.

The door opened and James came in.

He saluted David in respect and bowed at Ana who merely nodded.

"What?" Growled David upsetthat he was being disturbed right now.

"Sir the men want to know what is gonna happen to the prsioners once we reach Port Royale?"

Along with anger controling her thoughts, Jack and the crew but more of Jack had been running through her mind during those three weeks.

She had never meant to drag him along with her, but she hadn't wanted to see his dead body along with the crew's either so she picked what she thought was the best decision. Dear God, she thought as she looked up towards the heavens, if we ever make it out of this, will you please look after him and make sure that he doesn't have to go through the same thing as I have had to put up with.

Down in the brig of The Interceptor Jack, Gibbs, and the remainder of the crew was crowded into the brig.

Jack banged his head against the iron gates of the cell in fustration, God, this is all my fault. If I hadnt've listened to Madeline then we would've never gone to that island, we wouldn't be down here, and Ana wouldn't be in this position. Ever since they had been placed down her, Jack had thought of the many ungrateful things that he had done in his life and this had to top the list. He had ruined everything, and now he had lost Ana and The Pearl again.

"Come on Cap'in," offered Gibbs as he placed a hand on his shoulder, "ya didn't know this would happen. Any one of us could've made tha mistake."

Jack just shook his head as he listened to his advice.

He should've known and now he and everyone was gonna hang from the gallows because of his mistake.

Two days later a voice rang out signalling that land was sighted.

"Land ho!"

Once the rowboats had been made ready, David came into Ana's room.

"Port Royale awaits us my dear." He said as he picked her up against her weak protests.

Once out of the cabin, Ana looked over and saw Jack and the crew in chains awaiting to be put on a different rowboat.

Jack's chocolate eyes met hers in shock at the sudden change in her and she pressed herself closer against David's chest wishing that she could crawl into a ball to hide away from everything and everyone.

Oh god what have they done to you Ana? He thought in horror as he looked at her. He saw her loose clothes and bit of bony face.

Once in Port Royale she was taken to David's house, while Jack was taken to the fort where he and the other crewmates were placed in a jail cell.

Ana tried to follow Jack with her eyes but they soon turned a corner.

"We're home darling." Rejoiced David jovially as he walked up the stairs that led to his house.

The house was a decent wooden house, it was two stories tall with dark green shutters and a dark green door to match.

Once opening the door he led her upstairs to his room. His room was painted an off white color with a bed backed against the wall and not far from it was a window with a built in plank so one could sit by the window and look out into the ocean.

He places Ana on the bed underneath the covers, "Welcome to your new home my dear."

Ana scowls for a bit before she decides that she's seen enough of him for today so she places her head against the pillows to rest.

"Alright you rest." He said gently he kissed her forehead. As he did so he was reminded of the time when she was younger and she had been his, the smell of the sea that seemed to eminate from her teased his senses making him have to step back a bit as he watched her sleep for a few moments before he left.

After leaving her room he called out for one of his maids Stacy.

"Alexandria?"

A petite light skinned black girl with burnette hair and violet eyes appeared before him, "yes sir." She replied bowing.

"I have a woman named Anamaria Ericson in there who is planning on becoming my wife and I need you to take good care in looking after her.

She nodded in understandment as he pointed towards the door behind him as he pulled out a bottle of pills.

"I also need you to put these in her water as well. These help her." He said as he handed Alexandria the bottle of pills. He hated having to give her the pills, but she wasn't eating, and their was no other way of getting rid of the pain that she was feeling as her body began to eat away at the fat that was on her body.

Alexandria eyed the bottle of pills suspiciously before putting them in her pockets "yes sir."

"Now if you'll excuse me I must be going to the fort to attend to some business."

Alexandria nodded and walked to the window where she watched him walk out as she eyed the door, "I wonder..." she thought as she eyed the door can it really be her? She thought with interest, "we'll find out soon enough." She whispered to herself as she walked towards the door.

Over at the Fort Jack and Gibbs was located in a seperate cell away from the crew which made the both of them grow nervous for them to be seperated.

Suddenly the door that led to the jail cell exit opened and David and James appeared.

"Where is he?" Demanded David as James led them over to their cell.

"Well good evenin Commodore and company." Greeted Jack with a grimace on his face.

David glared at Jack for a moment, "And a good morning to you as well Captain Jack Sparrow." He returned the greeting with just as much malice in his voice.

"Wha do ya plan on doin wit her once she gets betta?" He asked in interest with a calm look on his face not wanting to portray the anger he felt.

David smirked, "I'm glad that you mentioned it Captain Sparrow. I plan on making her my wife and then I shall truly show her what being with a real man will be like."

The hell you will! He thought in anger as he fought back the urge to grab out towards him.

"You plan on making her your wife sir?" He asked in doubt.

"That's correct James."

"Well I hate ta agree wit James here, but he's right ya kno, jus think wha tha folks will say bout ya marryin' a pirate. Has scandal written all ova it don't ya agree Commodore?" Asked Jack spitefully smirking.

David turned to Jack, "you shut up."

Suddenly the door opened and Elizabeth and Will came running in.

"Ahh...Mr. and Mrs. Turner." Greeted David.

"Commodore, is it true that you plan on marrying Ana and hanging Jack?" Demanded Will.

Wow word gets around fast, thought Jack as he watched David to see what his answer was.

"Yes, and he must hang."

"Not if my father gets word of this." Replied Elizabeth stepping forward.

David scoffed, "pardon me for laughing madam but I highly doubt that he will have a sudden change of heart and decide to pardon the most wanted pirate in all of the caribbean."

"Not if he knew the truth about one of the most trusted men in his cabinet." Spoke up James from behind David that made all eyes turn towards him.

David glared at James and their eyes met.

After eyeing James for a few minutes David turned towards The Turners.

"Alright we'll go up to the Governor's office and humor him with this story of ours shall we?" Asked David as he, James, and Elizabeth along with Will left to head off towards the Governor's office.

Over at David's house.

Ana who had woken up heard a knock at the door.

"Come in." She weakly answered.

The door opened and Alexandria stepped in.

"Anamaria?" She called out.

Ana raised her head up and took a good look at Alexandria as she tentatively stepped forward. Looking at her Ana felt a familiarity strike her once again, but one that didn't bring back painful memories.

"Do I know you?" She asked as Alexandria put the glass of water down beside her.

"I hope you do. Do you recall the name Cora Sanchez Riles?"

Ana nodded her head as the memory of her Aunt Cora came into view.

"Well I know this may sound crazy, but I'm Alexandria Riles, her daughter, your cousin."

Ana stared at her in amazement. Could this be little Alex from so long ago?

"The last time I saw you, you were only eight years old." Replied Ana smirking.

"Yes well now I'm eighteen, and a woman now."

Ana was sure of that by looking at her, she had gotten her aunt's hair, nose, and lips, but her eyes, and skin color were definitely of Leon's.

"Wha are ya doin at David's?" She asked happy that she still had some family alive to talk to.

Alex sat down beside Ana, "well I got hired by him and his family when I was around fifteen and have been working under him as his maid in charge for the past three years."

"So is it true that you're a pirate?" She asked excitedly.

Ana's lips upturned in a smirk, "yes."

"I was thinking of becoming one, but then I remembered that I grow a bit queasy at the sight of blood." She replied meekly as she watched Ana take a sip of water.

Ana chuckled a bit to herself, "no ya definitely wouldn't be."

"So why does David have such an interest in you that he is willing to give you gifts such as these to numb your pain?" She asked as she showed Ana the pills.

Ana took the bottle her hand shaking in anger. Why that rotten son of a bitch! She thought as her eyes began to fill in pain and anger.

"I have to get him back." She said more to himself than anyone else.

"Alex?" She turned towards her cousin, "have ya eva killed anyone?"

Alex looked up at her innocently, "no."

"Ya want to?"

"Why what has he done to you?" She asked curiously.

"Too many things to count," she muttered, "basically he's killed my parents and he has my man...I mean cap'in in jail." She hadn't meant to say man, but it spilled out of her mouth.

"Awww...that's awful!" Exclaimed Alex in horror as she placed a hand on Ana's in sympathy. Ana accepted the hand.

"I can't believe that he could do this to you. He seemed like such nice guy." Said Alex as she pulled out a plate of soup from behind her back.

"Yes well looks can be deceiving." Replied Ana bitterly as she started eating with a gusto that she hadn't had. As she greedily slurped the soup she thought of the comic sight of Jack eating and it made her sigh in sadness.

"We have to get him." Replied Alex taking the bowl once she was done.

"And I know how." Replied Ana as she motioned Alex over and whispered her plan into her ear.

Alex nodded after hearing, "good, good, but you're gonna need to eat more to regain your strength."

"Oh don't you worry bout me, I'll make sure tha happens."

Later on that night.

David came home to his house a bit tired, after having convinced the Governor that Jack needed to hang and grant Ana pardon and allowing him to marry her he was bummed tired, but the thought of him coming home to Ana made his step a bit livelier and made him feel a bit more energized.

David opened the door, and was walking towards his bedroom, as he passed by Ana's room he heard a voice singing.

He stopped mesmerized by her voice, it was so beautiful and hypnotic. He remembered one time that she had sung to him and ever since then when he would plot to get her back he would imagine her singing to him again.

"Ana?" He asked as he opened her door to reveal a dark room lit by only a few candles. "Darling why is it so dim in here?"

"I had a headache." Replied Ana as he began to make his way towards the bed, but hands held up so that he couldn't come any closer. "No don't."

"Alright." He agreed as he stayed in the middle of the room.

"David how was work today? I know how a man of your stature gets when he's busy?"

David smiled, "work was a bit of a pain as usual but all of that disappears when I come home to you."

"Awww..how sweet." Cooed Ana.

Suddenly a gun was pressed closely against the back of his head.

"I'm sorry David, but as sweet as that sounds, I'm afraid that ya see tha problem tha lies in tha statement ya said."

"What are you talking about?" He urgently demanded as the gun pressed more into the back of his head.

"Ya said when ya came home ta me, but I'm afraid ta say tha only thing ya'll be comin' ta is tha end."

David heard the hammer of the gun click back securing a gun in the barrel of the gun.

"So is he worth it all?" He asked after a few minutes of silence as he saw his life flash before his eyes, "is that alcoholic, womanizing son of a bitch worth it all in the end?"

"He's worth living for," the gun fired of sending a bullet careening through David's head sending parts of his brains to splatter against the wall next to the bed, "dyin for," his body fell upon the ground with his face still expressing the shock, "worth goin ta hell for." the gun went off once again this time into his heart.

As the darkness began to envelop David, he stared up into the darkness this is so ironic, he thought as the blood began to trickle down his face. I'm dying by the hand of the woman I love.

Ana fell down from where she had been hiding in the shadows behind David while Alex hopped out of bed to catch her.

"Told ya it would work." Replied Ana with a smug look of victory as she closed her eyes for a second. Every muscle in her body was on fire, it took every restraint in her body to allow herself to stay up so long.

"I didnt' think he would fall for it." Sighed Alex.

"Let me rest for a second before we embark on the next leg of our journey."

After Ana rested for about a half hour they made their way over to the fort. Ana and Alex had changed clothes and now they were wearing a white shirts, maroon skirts, and maroon turbans to match their outfits.

"You ready?" Asked Alex as she offered her arm which Ana gladly took.

Ana nodded as they walked out into the crisp Caribbean air.

At the fort they walked up to the large wooden door and knocked.

"I hope this works." Mummered Alex

"Don't worry it will if ya remember yar lines an keep calm." She replied reassuringly as the door opened and a man appeared forward.

"Who are you?" He demanded blocking the entrance making sure that no one got in through him.

"Hallo." Greeted Alex in a french accent. "My cousin and I are cleaners here to clean ze jail cell areas."

"Do you have some kind of proof of what you say?" Asked the guard cautiously as he eyed the two carefully.

"Qu'a-t-il dit ?" What did he say? Asked Ana in perfect french, it was a good thing that she and Alex both were fluent in Creole or they wouldnt've been able to pull this off.

"He said do we have proof zat we are allowed to...Comment dites-vous ? How do you say..." She said snapping her fingers trying to find the supposed hard word, "...clean."

"Bien lui montrer le papier que le contre-amiral a donné à nous." Well show him the paper that the commodore gave to us. Demanded Ana as Alex made it seem as though she was searching long and hard for the mentioned paper before pulling it out.

"Success!" She exclaimed as she handed the forged paper that she had made earlier over to the man. When she had turned about twelve she had started learning how to forge and fight in order to make a living for herself.

The officer examined the paper for a minute before he moved aside.

"Well if the commodore has approved of it then I suppose it is alright." He lamented as they stepped forward.

"Will you tell us where ze cleaning products are?" She asked, "Because someone." she glared at Ana in mock annoyance, "forgot to bring ze supplies."

Ana returned the glare enjoying the little game that they were playing. "Bien peut-être je le wouldnt've a a oublié de les amener si je ne devais pas vous tirer constamment loin de Michael ! " Well maybe I wouldnt've have forgotten to bring them if I wasn't constantly having to pull you away from Michael! She replied by putting her hands on her hips.

Alex feigned hurt by looking outraged "Vous partez Michael de ceci !" You leave Michael out of this!

"Ladies please!" Begged the frightened guard as he led them towards the closet where the cleaning supplies were kept. Once the supplies were picked up they were led down a spiraling granite staircase to where the jail cells were kept.

Once down there they were escorted to the cells James came forward concerned, "what are these two doing down here!" He asked.

"Sir these are the cleaning women that the Commodore has allowed them to clean up the jail cell." He answered handing James the note.

"Cleaning women. David never mentioned anything about cleaning women coming down here." James examined the note for authencity.

Alex stepped forward, "well chief norrington he has given us clearance today."

James looked down and was shocked to see this beautiful french beauty staring up at him. Her violet eyes pierced into his as Alex stood there afraid that their cover was blown.

"Well if the Commodore endorses it then what harm can it do?"

The officer nodded and headed back up to mann his post once more.

Once he was gone he got close to them, "Ana?" He whispered questiongly as he walked over to her side.

Ana looked around quickly, "shh..." she said silencing him with a finger on his lips. "Please, don't tell anyone that we're here. "

"And what gives me good reason that I should agree with you, you are after all a pirate?"

"Because if you blow our cover I'll reveal what David told us." Lied Ana but he didn't need to know that.

"What did he tell you?" He asked curious.

"uhh..uhhh," she said shaking her finger in his face, "first don't blow our cover and maybe we'll make a deal."

"I can't believe I'm making a deal with a pirate."

Ana smirked, "there's a first time for anything."

Suddenly two officers were approaching them.

"Remember our deal." She said as she fell back into place with Alex.

"Now I want you two to start sweeping and then you'll..." his voice began to trail off as the officers passed.

"Thanks." Muttered Ana as they started to make their way down the hallway.

"Down to see Jack and me crew where else?"

"I said I wasn't gonna blow your cover, what makes you sure I'll go along with this charade?"

"Rememba wha I mentioned about tha information? It's very incriminatin James." She replied sweetly.

James began to break into a sweat. What evidence did they have?

"Just a wee bit longa James." Coaxed Ana as they made their way further down the hallway.

Jack and the crew were resting against the prison bars when they saw James walk in with two girls.

As the girls got closer, Jack saw Ana's face and sat up.

The officer that was left in the room saluted James but offered questioning looks when he saw Ana and Alex start to sweep around the prison area.

"They're maids that were hired by the Commodore." Answered James as he noticed the officer's suspicious looks.

Jack quirked an eyebrow at James, why is he protecting Ana?

"So who are zese people?" Asked Alex curiously as she eyed the lot of them.

"This is Captain Jack Sparrow and the crew of The Black Pearl." He replied.

Ana turned back towards James, "Mon Dieu ! Jack Sparrow, donc la marine a pu capturer finalement la brute ?" My God! Jack Sparrow, so the navy has finally been able to capture the brute?

Jack raised an eyebrow in suprise, I didn't know that she could speak french? And brute, who she's calling a brute?

"Yes ze navy manned by none other zan Chief James Norrington." Suggested Alex as she swiped a suggestive glance. Ever since she had turned about sixteen she had developed a crush on James, but she had tried to dismiss it by believing that he would never be interested in a girl like her.

James smirked a bit as he watched Alex clean for a bit. God she hasn't even been here no more than a few minutes, and I am already attracted to her. He took an observation of her body marveling at the wisps of curls that had escaped from her turban a bit as she bent forward to sweep thinking them very attractive and suiting her face.

As they continued to clean for a bit Ana purposefully bumped into the officer.

"Le pardon de Oops me monsieur." Oops pardon me sir she mumbled her most sincere apologies as she scooped the key into her pocket that she had swiped from his pocket when she bumped into me.

"Clumsy woman." Mummered the guard as he moved out of her way as she continued to clean.

Once again she tried to pass as close as she could to their cells but once again the man stood up as if to warn her when suddenly James stood up and pressed the sailor's pressure points.

Everyone looked up in shock at James for a moment before Ana took out the key and unlocked the door of their cells.

Ana and Jack's eyes met for a brief second in relief that the both of them were okay before they fell in with the other group.

They hastily made their way up the staircase and managed to slip by the guards. Once outside the group split even though they didn't know that they had.

Ana and Jack were on the battlements when they heard yells of stop from behind them.

"Stop in tha name of her majesty's royal navy!" Leading the charge she saw James and the rest of the navy behind them.

Ana turned towards Jack "Jack,"

His chocolate eyes met her hazel ones "yes luv?"

"Forgive me for this."

Jack looked in confusion when all of a sudden she punched him which caused him to fall back in shock and over the battlements.

Ana stepped up and looked back as James and the navy men stepped forward.

"Ana step down from the battlements."

Ana's eyes met his, "sorry but I can't do tha." And with a wave of her hand she fell backwards over the battlements.

After falling for a few moments Ana's head emerged from the water amid sputtering coughs and awkward glances sideways for Jack.

"Jack?" She called out nervously.

His head emerged from the water, "are ya bloody daft woman? Hittin me like tha!"

Ana rolled her eyes and smirked, "glad ta know tha ya're back ta ya old self."

Suddenly they looked ahead and saw the Pearl not too far in the distance.

Jack smirked, "come on luv, tha pearl awaits us."

Ana started to swim forward with Jack, but the exhaustation of all that had happened had tired her considerably. Slowly it was becoming harder for her to keep her head above water as the water started to sink under the water. She tried to call out to him, but water filled her mouth making it hard for her to speak.

After swimming for a while Jack turned around looking to see Ana, but was suprised when he didn't see her.

"Ana! Ana!" He called out nervously as he swam around trying to find her.

He dove under and noticed her unconscious figure slowly dropping towards the ocean floor. He submerged for breath once again as he dove down and swam down and grabbed Ana's waist and pulled them both towards the surface.

Their heads emerged from the water, and Jack swam like he had never swam before to get to the Pearl.

Please god let us make it.

Once they were hoisted up, Jack placed Ana down on the ground and started feeling her pulse on her wrist, her pulse was there but it was getting faint.

Jack breathed into her a few times before pressing down on her chest to stabalize a heart beat. The crew gathered around each worried but not knowing what to do.

After a few minutes of unsuccessful revival the crew looked nervously around each other deciding which one was to break the news to him.

Gibbs sighed as he stepped forward, "Cap'in,"

Jack looked up at Gibbs confused.

"Maybe...I don't think she's gonna make it."

Jack frowned at Gibbs and then focused on Ana.

No, no she has to make it! She has to! He thought with anger as he tried once again to revive Ana. The last thing she did was save his life, after he had almost ruined hers. He had to make it up to her, she just couldn't leave him like this.

"Cap'in!"

Jack looked crazed as he looked up at Gibbs.

Gibb's eyes met his and he shook his head.

Jack could feel his breathing become laboured as he shook his head slightly.

No...she can't be dead. She just can't!

The crew bowed their heads in respect for their lost comrade.

Jack could feel tears stinging the back of his eyes as he stared at the woman that he shared so much of his life with, a woman who knew his past and with whom he had been hoping to share his future with, the woman that he had fallen in love with.

Suddenly Ana's eyes fluttered a bit, "whose not gonna make it ya bloody fools?" She asked out weakly.

The crew looked in suprise and happiness as a cheer broke out amongst them.

Ana turned and saw Jack's face of sadness pass over into a smug smirk.

"Hey ya." he whispered.

"Hey ya." She whispered back.

Suddenly she was picked up by Jack and led to his room.

Once in his room he laid her underneath the sheets.

Ana laid back peacefully against the pillows before her eyes met his.

"Ya gave me quite tha scare luv."

"Well forgive me once more for scarin ya out of ya wits." She replied hastily.

Jack smirked as he sat down backwards in a chair.

"Why didn't ya tell me tha ya were in trouble?"

"I couldn't. I was so tired from all tha happened an..."

"Ya don't have ta say anymore." He said silencing her with a finger on her lips, "Now ya just rest an I'll be back lata on tonight savvy?"

Ana merely nodded suddenly realizing how sleepy she was.

A few hours later it was very dark out on the deck of The Pearl.

Jack was steering when he heard steps coming up behind him.

He turned around and was shocked to see Ana slowly walking towards him.

"Ana! Luv ya should be..."

Ana silenced him with a dismissive wave of her hand, "I got bored an I wanted ta be up on tha deck, an don't try ta make me go back down cause I'll only get up an we'll be doin this all night long."

Jack sighed as he helped her to the steering wheel which he stood closely behind her if she fell, "bloody stubborn woman." He muttered into her hair as his hands covered hers as they steered the ship.

"Tha may be," she retorted enjoying the warmth of his body against hers, "but I know ya wouldn't have me any otha way."

After steering for a few minutes in silence, Ana decided to break the silence. "So where ta now Cap'in? Some exotic location we neva heard of, Tortuga, South America, where?"

"Port Royale." He simply replied.

Ana furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, "Port Royale! Are ya daft Jack we just left there, and I don't know bout ya but I like me head just where it is."

"I do too." Said Jack as he placed a light kiss on the back of her neck that made Ana close her eyes and sigh in pleasure for a bit.

"First we go to Tortuga, then maybe St. Vincent's and lay low for a bit then we head back over to Port Royale."

"Why do ya wanna go back ta Port Royale so bad?"

"Because," he explained as he got closer to her ear in which he whispered, "there's a priest there."

Ana frowned, "A priest! Wha good is a priest..." slowly her voice trailed off as she got his suggestion.

A lumped formed in her throat that was getting harder to swallow with each passing second.

After trying to gain her compusure finally spoke after a while, "Jack?" She asked weakly.

"Yes luv?" He twisted his head so that he could get a better look at her.

"Did ya just..."

But before she could finish her sentence, she felt something cold slip around her neck.

She looked down and saw that it was a gold necklace.

She looked up at Jack who was looking down at her.

As she pulled the gold necklace up to better examine it she noticed something was attached to it.

Ana gasped as she held a gold ring out in her outstretched palm.

And adorned on top of the ring was a little diamond that sparkled from the top of it like a lighthouse.

Ana could feel her throat becoming raw with emotion.

"But Jack I can't have kids." She whispered obviously her mind wasn't functioning at the moment that she said that.

Jack softly chuckled, "don't worry we can always adopt, and besides if we can't then oh well I'm enough of a kid for ya ta handle with."

Ana let out a little laugh, "well tha is true."

"So wha do ya say luv?" He asked as he got down on one knee.

"Jack!" Ana exclaimed her tone nervous and excited at the same time.

"Anamaria Dominique Ericson will ya be me wife?"

Ana looked up and once again there eyes met. He had done so much for her, he had taken her in when no one else had, he had consoled her when no one else was around, he had loved her when nobody else would, and he had saved her life too many times to count.

Ana felt the tears start to spill from her eyes and drop onto her maroon skirt once again wetting it but she didn't care as she motioned for him to stand up. Once he did she wrapped her arms around his neck as she kissed him passionitely.

"Yes! Oh god yes!" She exclaimed in between kisses, "oh and Jack?"

"yea luv?" He asked lips just farther apart to where they barely touched.

"I luv ya."

Jack eyed her shock setting in upon his features. "Tha's tha one thing I've been waitin for ya ta say luv."

Ana blushed as Jack kissed her once again.

"I luv ya too."

God! Thought Jack in amazement as their tongues met in bliss once he deepened the kiss, This woman never seems to stop amazing.
