When Jack awoke, he couldn't see clearly and it took him a second to realize where he was.
"Rose, is that you?" He saw a figure of a young woman standing over him but it wasn't Rose.
It was instead one of the Carpathia's nurses. She was a little shorter than Rose and she had blonde hair, tied up into a neat bun and she had green eyes. She had been attending to Jack since he had arrived there.
"Rose?", he asked again.
"I'm afraid not dear. My name is Sarah. No one came in by the name of Rose. I'll check the list for you though. I've been attending to you and the other patients since you were brought in."
Jack had been improving but he was still a little weak. He could now see clearly and he saw the nurse standing next to him.
"Hold on one moment, I'll be right back."
He sat up and thought for a moment. What could've happened to Rose? The last thing he remembered was being pulled into the boat with Rose still holding onto him. I can't stay here. I have to find Rose. I can't lose her. He saw the nurse coming back with a hot bowl of soup. He felt to weak to eat, but he knew he had to in order to get his strength back.
"Here you go dear. Try to eat as much as possible. You need to get your strength back."
"Thanks."
"I checked that list for you and there was no-one brought in the infirmary by the name of Rose, but that doesn't mean she's not aboard the ship somewhere else." She explained kindly.
"Thanks, appreciate it."
She smiled and left to attend to the others. He thought deeply as he finished his lunch. He'd decided he'd had enough to eat. He set the tray aside and got up. He put on the dry clothes that the nurse had brought him. He was feeling much better now, much warmer than earlier. He then noticed the handcuffs were gone. They must have taken them off while I was asleep.
He went outside and onto the deck where Rose had been escorted earlier. He looked around at all the pain coming from the other passengers as they grieved over lost loved ones. Then he stopped dead in his tracks and looked straight ahead at what he saw before him. There she was, his precious Rose. His heart began beating rapidly.
"Rose! Rose!" he cried.
She woke up to the familiar voice yelling her name. She sat up immediately.
"Jack!", she exclaimed as she sprang to her feet.
She ran towards him and they collided in a passionate embrace and he showered her with kisses.
"Rose! Oh God, I thought I lost you forever!"
"No Jack, I'm going to be with you forever, I promise!"
They both showered each other with kisses and stood there for a while, holding each other, Jack stroking her hair and kissing her on her face. Then they sat down on the bench.
"Jack, are you alright? How do you feel?"
"I feel better than earlier, but I still feel kinda lightheaded. Most importantly, I have you Rose. That's all that matters."
"I love you so much Jack."
"I love you too Rose."
She wrapped the blanket around the both of them to keep them warm. They sat there, holding each other, and keeping each other warm. All of a sudden, Jack looked up, having heard two familiar voices and he couldn't believe who he saw running towards them.
