Chapter 10: The Marriage
Jack, Magdalena, and Barbossa made it back to the "Black Pearl" without incidence. The natives had just looked on at them knowing they had already been to the fountain and blessed by the gods of Atlantis.
"Captain, what happened?"
"Well, the fountain had a limit of who could drink and what it did. Let's just say that the legend is not all true"
"Are you telling me we made this trip for nothing?"
Jack thought to himself that no, he had met someone that he loved more than the sea itself, but all he could say was "Aye"
"What do you say we do next, captain?"
"After I marry this beautiful lass, I was thinking of doing some honest pirating before returning to Nassau to check on Elizabeth"
"Some honest pirating you say!"
"Aye, Master Gibbs, I have the urge to sack St. Augustine, What do you say, Barbossa?"
"Finally!" "I guess you are in need of a captain to marry you"
"So it seems, if the lass will still have me"
"I do"
"Dearly beloved, we come before you all to join a pirate and his bonny lass in holy matrimony, to pillage, plunder,and sack ports till death do they part. Do you Jack take Magdalena as your wife?"
"Aye"
"Magdalena, do you accept Jack as your husband and captain?"
"Accepto"
"Well, pirates and scalawags, may I present to you Captain Jack Sparrow and Magdalena Sparrow. Just kiss the lass, Jack"
Jack grabbed Magdalena and kissed her passionately. They kissed for what seemed an eternity. Jack broke from the kiss and turned towards the crew.
"Although we have no rum, regrettably, we celebrate tonight and tomorrow we take St. Augustine"
The crew all yelled in excitement as they started to dance and sing. At sunset, Jack led his new wife to the helm of the ship. They watched the sunset. It was a mixture of purples, pinks, and blues.
"Jack, it is beautiful. Estoy tan feliz"
"Aye, tis is, but not as beautiful as you are"
Magdalena reached up and kissed Jack. She had never felt this way about anyone. She savored every waking moment with him. Not wanting to miss a thing. Jack led her back to the cabin, slowly caressing her and removing her attire and kissing her neck. She felt like she was in a trance. Noone had ever touched her in this way. She had only been with her husband, but even then, he had not touched her this way, with so much passion and love. Jack let his heart show him what to do. He had never been with a woman this way. She was precious, like a diamond and had to be treated this way. Jack finally knew the meaning of making love.
The next morning, they awoke at the same time just staring into each other's eyes.
"Te amo, Jack"
"and I, you"
Jack kissed her forehead. There was a knock on the cabin door.
"Who is it?"
"Gibbs, sir. Headings sir"
"St. Augustine, tell Barbossa to take the helm"
"Aye, captain"
