-1It had been about 2 weeks since Jack and Rose got Paula and Nicole out of Jail. Rose had been to check the mail and noticed a letter addressed to her and Jack from Paris.

"Jack, we have a letter from Paula and Nicole!" Rose exclaimed.

"Well read it" Jack said.

"We are here in Paris, and we took refuge in the Paris Opera house! Nicole and I are singing in the opera house to be able to stay for free. There are mysterious things happening, most say it is because of the a phantom. We met a girl named Christine daae. She is a wonderful singer and is really nice. Nicole and I hope that you can come visit us next year."

"Wow, sounds like they are having fun." Jack

"Jack since we are all on this good news subject, I have some more good news to tell you." Just as rose said that there was a big "boom"!

Jack and Rose grabbed Opal and ran for the bathtub, they got in and covered their heads with their hands. Opal started crying and at that moment she said her first word. "dada" Rose and Jack could not believe this, it was one of the happiest days of their life and the most horrifying. The roof collapsed and fell on top of the three of them. The bombing soon silenced and Opal had quit crying.

Rose had a large wooden beam on her leg and could not move. Jack was trying to get up to get Opal and see if she was okay, but was finding it to be difficult to move. Finally Jack got up and went to help Rose up. He lifted the beam off of her and then quickly removed the rubble from around Opal. Jack moved a large cement block and Rose screamed," No!"

"She… She… She's dead!" Rose screamed while "balling" her eyes out.

Jack held Rose tight as he stared at Opal lying there crushed. He could not believe she had just said "dada" and now she was dead. He would have given anything for Opal to have said "mama" because he knew how much this may hurt Roses feelings that she never learned the word "mama". Jack and Rose stepped out of the tub and walked out of the bathroom.

"Jack, She was so young!" Rose exclaimed

"I know Rose, I know." Jack said while holding Rose.

"Jack I hope our next baby does not die." Rose said.

"Next baby?" Jack asked.

"That is the good news I was about to tell you a little while ago." Rose said

"You mean we are having another baby?" Jack asked.

"Yes." Rose said.

Jack and Rose walked into the bathroom and grabbed Opal up out of the tub. They took her to the funeral home and asked what kind of service they could have for her. They told Jack and Rose that they could have a one hour visiting service and then burry her for, $500.00 Jack told them that, that sounded fine.

Jack and Rose went home and just laid on the bed staring at the ceiling. Jack asked Rose what she would want to name the baby. Rose said it was a girl she wanted to name it Lucy. Rose asked Jack what he would want to name a boy. Jack told Rose he liked the name Kevin. So they settled it, if it were a girl her name would be Lucy, if it were a boy it would be called Kevin.

Rose and Jack laid on the bed talking for a few more minutes and finally Rose fell asleep. Jack got up and walked into Opal's room and sat down and just cried for hours. He finally cried himself to sleep.

The next morning Rose woke up and noticed Jack was not in the bed. She quickly jumped up to find Jack. She walked all throughout the apartment. She finally went into Opal's room and saw Jack asleep in the chair. She walked back into the kitchen and decided she would fix him breakfast.

Rose knew how hard this must be on Jack. Rose had, had Opal around for three great years. Jack had only had the pleasure of having the joy of being around her for about three months. Jack walked into the kitchen and grabbed Rose from behind and kissed her. He told her to go back to bed and rest, he said he would finish cooking breakfast. Rose told Jack that she would lay back down until he had breakfast finished. Jack told her he would come get her when it was ready.

It took about fifteen minutes for Jack to get breakfast cooked. He walked in and told Rose it was ready. She walked into the kitchen and could not believe her eyes. There was a Rose on the table beside her bacon, eggs, toast, and jelly. Rose and Jack sat down and ate, neither of which said anything the whole meal. They just stared into each others eyes.

Jack and Rose got ready and headed down to the funeral home. They walked into the room where the casket was and just stared at her. She looked so delicate and beautiful in her dress. The funeral arranger walked in and told Jack and Rose that they needed to drive to the cemetery.

Rose and Jack drove to the cemetery. There they watched as their baby girl was lowered into the ground. Jack held Rose as she cried. They waited around until the grave was filled back up and then they put some flowers on the fresh dug dirt. They turned away and walked toward the car. They drove around for a little while and then went home. When they got home they went to bed.

Please review on this chapter, This is my favorite chapter so far. The only problem is Jack and Rose don't show a lot of emotion. I am bad at explaining how they actually feel. Thanks, James Pressley
