Chapter 13
"The way their tears make you want to change the world so that it doesn't hurt them anymore... Yet regardless if you love them, hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them ... it matters not. Once in your life, whatever they were to the world they become everything to you. When you look them in the eyes, traveling to the depths of their souls and you say a million things without trace of a sound, you know that your own life is inevitable consumed within the rhythmic beatings of their very heart. We love them for a million reasons, No paper would do it justice. It is a thing not of the mind but of the heart. A feeling, only felt."
Kat walked down the aisle watching her past and future husband coming towards her. Jack looked at her and felt complete love and happiness. She was shining in the same gown she had worn the first time they had wed. They had created such a bond and now were going to make it official, again. Jack was so close to her now and as he reached out to take her hand in his, he noticed the blood. Her blood, all over his hands. Jack looked over to her and she said "Why would you let this happen to me again?"
Jack woke with a start and looked over. Kat was still sleeping soundlessly next to him. He was breathing hard and put his head in his hands. 'I can't let that happen. This time it was only a dream but…..no I won't let it happen.' Jack went on to deck and took the wheel from Gibbs. Kat came out a few minutes and walked over to him.
"Are you alright Jack?" Kat asked wrapping a blanket around herself.
"Aye love. I'm fine." Jack kissed her on the neck. "I want you love."
"I know." Kat turned around and looked him in his eyes. She kissed him gently on the lips. "I love you."
"I love the way you kiss me when you say I love you. I also love the way your hand always finds mine." Jack smiled at her and she grabbed his hand.
They stayed together there just staring at each other for what seemed a lifetime, yet it went by too fast. They watched the sun rise and watched as the crew came on board.
The next few days were spent in utter bliss. Jack taught Kat how to sword fight and defend herself, that way she could be prepared for anything. They talked about the old days the time they got to spend with each other.
"There was that one day, love, that ye made lunch for us. We went out to the docks and got the picnic all set up. Then it started to rain and ye started to cry." Jack said looking at Kat. They were eating breakfast together, alone. "So instead we ate inside and that was the first time yer dad met me. I don't think he thought much of me."
Kat giggled and smiled. "I remember that. You were right he didn't think much of you then, but he grew to love you like a son. Does he know? About me coming back and all."
"I told him about it, but he never believed me. I think now he will know that I was right and will be happy to have his little girl back."
"I hope he does. I just get nervous. Do I look exactly the same? I mean just like before?"
"Aye love ye do, yet there is something different about ye I can't really tell. How are ye love in your time?"
"Seventeen. Exactly the same age I left at."
"Aye well that is true, too bad I have aged a couple years."
"Only eighteen." Kat said smiling.
"Only."
