Soon Ch2

Yes Captain Jack Sparrow had a home. He'd bartered it from a former shipmate whom had owed him a fairly large sum.

"A house over rum." He'd said to himself the day he'd gotten it. But his old ship hauled anchor the next day and he hadn't though of it for some years. At least not till 2 years ago when he'd retired from pirating with enough coinage and rum to make him a happy man. But the rum was gone soon enough and he found himself far less than a happy man. He was lonely. And so he began his search for a woman. He'd spent a year and a half and tonight he had found her. Now he just had to get her.

He walked in the door and lit a candle. It wasn't much. A bedroom, kitchen and a room called a parlor, which jack had used for the storage of his accumulation of treasures and trinkets. He closed the door, and went into his room. The bed looked inviting, so he laid down with the intent to sleep. But sleep was elusive. The only thing he could think of was Adreanna. She seemed perfect in every way. He would try again tomorrow night. No he would succeed tomorrow night. He dreamt up a plan and fell into a sleep filled with dreams of Adreanna.

And so tomorrow night came and Jack once again found himself in front of the "Boot Leg" tavern. He took a deep breath and sauntered in. He took his usual place at the back corner booth, and waited for Adreanna to come to him.

"Ello again, Jack."

Yes she knew his name. How he wasn't sure, but she did nonetheless.

"Ello luv."

"what'll ye be havin'?"

"You." Was his first thought, but that wasn't what he said. "Take a seat." Adreanna rolled her eyes and sighed. "Not again." she thought.

The burning lust that he felt when he was alone with a woman wasn't there. There was more to her than all the wenches from his past. Something deeper. He knew he wanted it. He knew he would understand it. Soon.
