Author's Note: Hello Hearties! I have four new characters here, and I am sorry to say I added this extra girl, but I have to say, that what will happen, will bring Jack and Elizabeth even closer together, after things are explained. I have to admit, Nicole called me 'Evil' at first, because of the way the girl acted towards Jack...
See you for chapter 6- Which shall be posted soon :)

"Jack isn't just going to Cape Fullerton to take Jason there, he is also going there for another reason."
"And what is this reason?"
Bill lowered his voice to a whisper, and whispered to Abigail over the sound of their gentle breathing.
Abigail looked at Bill, her eyes growing wide.
"Oh my goodness, really?" Abigail breathed.
"Now, don't tell Elizabeth…"
"Oh I don't think I could…" Abigail giggled.
"Tell me what?" Elizabeth asked cheerfully as she walked in with the groceries.
"Oh, nothing." Abigail smiled. "We were discussing a…book."
"Oh how interesting! I might have to read it sometime." Elizabeth smiled.
"Yes, you will. Go ahead and wash up and I will be there in a minute to help, Elizabeth."
"Alright, Abigail. Have a good day Bill." Elizabeth smiled as she walked away.
"That was a close one…" Bill whispered.
"You're telling me…" Abigail blew some bangs out of her face.
"Oh, and before I go…" Bill finished drinking his coffee.
"Yes?" Abigail asked.
"Oh never mind…you wouldn't want to probably."
"Please ask me." Abigail begged.
"Do you want to go on a walk after dinner later?" Bill asked.
"I would love to Bill." Abigail put her hand on top of Bill's.
Bill felt like he had just asked the most important question of his life to Abigail. He stood up, and left the café with a smile on his face.
Meanwhile, Jack was riding with Jason, listening to Jason hum off key.
'I just can't wait to get him dropped off…' Jack thought as Jason hit a really bad off key note.
The next day, they arrived in Cape Fullerton. Jack signed some paper work, and turned Jason over. He walked into a building.
"Oh, can I help you, Constable?" Mary Jo Vincent smiled.
"Yes you can actually." Jack smiled, and she helped him with his purchases.
Meanwhile, in Coal Valley, Elizabeth was trying to get her mind off of Jack, so she tried reading a book, but it didn't work, since it was about a Mountie, and it reminded her of Jack. Next, Elizabeth tried sewing, but then she remembered when jack had helped her sew. Everything she did seemed to remind her of Jack, even just seeing the color red did. Elizabeth decided to ride to Cape Fullerton herself to surprise Jack, so she secretly packed up and left a note on her bed. She left while Abigail was on her walk with Bill, and she hoped she wouldn't meet any bad guys on her secret trip.
Later that evening, Jack had dinner with some Mounties in Cape Fullerton. They were at a diner with a built in bar. Jack made sure he made it clear he didn't want any drinks.
"Hey Jack. Maybe you can get a girl from here for the night." Rich pushed his elbow into the side of Jack's arm.
"No thanks, I got my own girl from Coal Valley."
"Oooh is she a saloon girl?" Kevin hinted.
"Does she look anything like these girls here?" Rich whistled as a saloon girl walked by, fluttering her eyelashes.
"Elizabeth has a look of her own, her own kind of attraction, she doesn't need an outfit like, er, that to attract me." Jack said.
"That kind of a girl, huh? Hmm sounds nice." Rich smiled.
"Oh well hello there, Kevin." Katherine smiled.
"Oh is it your break already sweetheart?" Kevin rubbed Katherine's hand.
"Yes it is, now where is that walk you promised me is?" Katherine giggled.
"Excuse me, gentlemen." Kevin grabbed a hold of Katherine's hand and led her out.
Rich spotted a saloon girl, and left Jack to go find out if she was new in town. Jack was left all alone. He finished his tea, and was about to leave, when he saw a lady about to trip.
"Watch out for the cane!" Jack warned her as he ran over to stop her before she fell.
"Oh my goodness, thank you Constable." Nancy started to look at Jack.
"I knew someone when I was younger who looks a lot like you, do you mind telling me your name?"
"Jack, Jack Thornton."
"Oh my goodness, Jack!" Nancy threw her arms around Jack.
"Do… I know you from somewhere?"
"Oh goodness you don't remember me?" Nancy asked as she stepped back and twirled around. "I was your school sweetheart."
Jack just started blushing as people looked at him and Nancy.
"Well, you look …fine." Jack commented as he looked at Nancy's outfit. He couldn't believe she turned into a Saloon girl.
"Well honey, you should tell me all about how you have been…I am so glad you saved me. You deserve to come to my room tonight, we can have a little drink," She reached up to start putting her hands in Jack's hair, but he stepped back.
"No thank you." Jack backed up as she started to try to put her hands on Jack's shoulders, and ran into a table.
"Hey, Jack, you okay?" Rich rushed over to help him.
"Oh uhm, Ms. Nancy is just talking to me." Jack tried to walk to be a little bit behind Rich so he could stay away from Nancy.
"Hey, uhm Nancy. I've been watching you for a while. And I was sort of wondering if we could have some dessert?" Rich lied, hoping to help Jack.
"Nope, I got my Jack." Nancy put her arms around Jack in another hug.
'Elizabeth would kill me…..' Jack thought as he looked at Nancy's back, with the lace holding her outfit on.
"So sweetheart, why don't we make plans for tomorrow?" Nancy played with Jack's hair.
"Listen, Nancy, I know I used to say you would be mine when I grew older, but I sort of-" Jack was cut off.
"Oh you still remember your promise! Aww you are so sweet! Okay so tomorrow we will have lunch, and then I'll show you my other outfits. Or better yet, I could show you tonight." Nancy rubbed her hands on Jack's shoulders.
Jack was silently praying for help, and Rich stepped in to help.
"Come on Jack, we have some paper work to finish on Jason." Rich said.
"Awww you have to leave already?"
"Yes. See you again sometime, Nancy." Jack happily left.
"See you tomorrow!" Nancy yelled over the crowd.
Once they were outside, Jack breathed a sigh of relief.
"You gotta watch, she's the wild one around here."
"You're telling me…" Jack readjusted his hat.
"You gotta tell her you have a girl." Rich looked at him.
"I tried, as you could tell…." Jack stuck his hands into his pockets.
