"No, that was me," the man answered in English. Max froze, her eyes widened, could it be? She looked up enough so that she could see what the man was weaing, but not his face, he couldn't see her face if she didn't look at his. The man was unmistakably a pirate, and not just any pirate, the one she hoped to see.
"Follow me," she told him in English before shuffling off behins a buidling. Max stopped walking when she found that this place was less populated.
Max turned back and watched as the man walked closer, following her at a distance. When he reached the corner of the building, she jumped on him, giving him a tight hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"I'm sorry, son." Jack told this person, trying to pry them off. "I'm actually taken...by a girl." As he pushed on the boy's shoulders, his hat fell and Jack found that it was no boy, but his own wife!
Max smiled brightly, her face glowing. "Yes...I know you are...she's a ver lucky girl." she laughed jumped at him again.
This time Jack caught her in his arm. "Oh, I thought I'd never see you again! I thought..." he didn't have time to finish his sentence before his lips met hers, drowning away his voice.
Max pulled back from the kiis, "I'm sorry..." she gave him a quick kiss again. "I'm so sorry...for everything. On the ship..."
It was Jack's turn to inturrupt her with a kiss. As they broke it again and she began to talk again, Jack put a finger to her lips to silence her and pulled her close. "It's alright...everything is fine now..." we just have to get out of here."
"Jack...I'm pregnant...I have kids...we...have kids." she inturrupted quickly. Jack help her at arms length and looked her over strangely.
"Kids?" he asked. "How long have you been here?" he asked her half-jokingly. When he found that she was trying to be serious, he asked. "Plural?"
Max smiled, "Kinda..."
Jack looked down at her stomacha dn for the first time noticed that it was bulging out at him. He now felt the nervosness of actually becoming a father...was he ready? He was still a kid himself looking to never die...and Max...
"Plural..." she inturrupted his thoughts. "As in, we have one," Max put her hand on hr stomach softly. "And...I found another..." she smiled.
Jack looked at her, she eally did look happy and more beautiful than ever. He smiled and stepped closer to her. "May I?" he asked sounding nervous.
Max smiled and nodded, "I don't see why not." She removed her hand from her stomach and grabbed his, softly placingit flat on the side.
Jack stared fixtly on her stomach where his hand rest. He was about to move it but Max put her and a top his and smiled.
"Wait..." she whispered to him, throughly proud. Jack relaxed her hand again and waited for what she wanted to show him. He was about to ask when he felt something hit his hand...from the inside!
Max giggled at Jack's crooked grin as he sort of patted her belly. He looked up to her and smiled widely before kissing her as passionatly sa when they were married.
As he broke the kiss, he asked her, "What do you think it is...boy or girl?" he smiled
"Oh, yeah, I think that it's a boy...but almost everyone else disagrees. I think that if it was a girl, that she wouldn't kick so much and so hard." she added jokingly.
"Oh, I know a few that do...and perhaps it's not kicking...but slapping...they seem to do that a lot." he answered back just a jokingly.
"You don't have to worry about that anymore...not as much anyway." she smiled. "You're a taken man...remember...and a father."
Jack looked at her strangely again, "Do you think that I am ready for this...to be a father I mean?"
Max thought about it for a while, she had even asked the same question about herself. "Together...we will be."
