A/N: Thank you so much Nerds United and Second Star To The Left, both of your reviews made me write this chapter! I hope it's not too boring for you.
Btw, did you get my PM Nerds United?
''It all began when I first met Porter here, in Tortuga. It was afta' me father took me away from ye. Anyways, I met Porter when 'e was a captain of a Ship named The Lady White. Pretty ship she was, didn't stand a chance against me Pearl though. It soon came clear 'dat Porter wanted to trade Ships. I refused but then I became drunk 'n we betted on our Ships." Jack spoke clearly.
"May I ask, what was the bet?" Charlotte questioned.
"Tha's the thing. 'Da bet was whoever found a gal first would hand over dere Ship with no arguments, ye know what Pirates are like. I thought I'd never see ye again Lottie. It destroyed me inside but I kept goin'. Just me thinkin' you with a better man made me keep goin'. If only ye did find that right man.."
"But surely, you are that right man?" Charlotte looked up at Jack from where she was sitting. Jack then placed his hands on her face, her skin as soft as feathers, he began to rub his fingers over her cheeks.
"No luv. The right man wouldn't of taken his Ship, knowin' dat ye may of been hurt" Jack spoke, his face showing a combiantion of emotions.
''Is that what you did?"
''Worse. Afta the bet, I took me Black Pearl away and sailed across the world for a bit. I then returned to Tortuga and found ye. We musta been togetha' for weeks at Tortuga. No wonda' Porter must of noticed how close we were. He den confronted me and I told him the bet was off, that I thought it a joke. That same night he confronted me, you were taken from my arms one night. 'Ta son of a bitch musta drugged me beforehand."
Charlotte carefully understood all of Jack's words, taking them in bit by bit.
We musta been togetha' for weeks at Tortuga..She remembered those words most of all. She clutched her stomach.
"Jack, when you said we were together for weeks at Tortuga..did we do any kind of intimate doings during that time?"
Jack noticed her looking uneasy. He was surprised that she hadn't even mentioned her loss of memory.
"Of course, wiv your reputation.." Jack winked.
Charlotte opened her mouth to speak but held her tongue with her teeth.
"Why, what's da matter?" Jack said, eyes full of concern for his dearly beloved.
"Nothing, just intrested. Anyway, please continue. Do you know what Porter did to me, if you say I lost my memory?"
"I'm afraid not luv. But I hope to find out that information one day and I'll kill him for it. I can't explain how sorry I am for doin' this to ye. After all these years of missin' ye then I go and do some bet."
"Pirates are pirates Jack. You didn't know what Porter might of done. Does he permanently live in Tortuga?"
"Aye, that he does."
"Good. That means we'll have plenty of time to go to him. Just please Jack, promise me one thing. Protect me from him, I can't do that on my own.''
''Lottie, ye don't even need to ask. I'm always going to protect ye. Always."
Charlotte smiled.
"Even if I'm pregnant with your child?"
Jacks eyes lit up.
''What?"
