And here is the chapter where we find out- will Elizabeth seeing Jack with Nancy ruin their relationship? Or will it make it stronger after they talk things out? Find out, in the words I share with thee.

"Oh Bill!" Abigail yelled out the bedroom window after she found Elizabeth's letter.

"Yes?" Bill asked.

"Please come inside!" Abigail rushed downstairs with the letter. She handed it to Bill, and he read it.

"She's really crazy about Jack, he's lucky. She puts herself into danger just to be with him" Bill shook his head.

Elizabeth was riding along, she didn't stop for long to rest, the sooner she got to Jack, the sooner she would be happy. So she continued on her journey, and thankfully she didn't meet anyone on her trip until she was closer to Cape Fullerton.

Meanwhile, in Cape Fullerton, Jack was trying to avoid Nancy, but somehow she found him.

"Jack!" Nancy started running towards Jack.

'That's her day outfit?' Jack thought looking at the low cut, tight, short dress.

"Where have you been all morning?" Nancy asked.

"Uhm, doing paper work." Jack replied.

"Well come on, it isn't too late to go on our picnic!" Nancy said pulling him along.

"Nancy, we need to talk." Jack put his foot down.

"Oh? What about?" Nancy was planning for Jack to say he loved her dearly, or something sweet like that.

"As you know, I haven't seen you since I was about 15, I've seen another girl since then, but we broke up."

"Oh Jack, I don't care about that other girl, just as long as I am yours now!" Nancy giggled, and tried to kiss Jack, but he turned away.

"Listen, I am currently with another girl, I need you to understand that." Jack tried to take her hands off of him.

Elizabeth rode in got off of her horse, and walked towards what looked like Jack talking to a woman in a tiny outfit.

'Wonder why he's talking to her….' Elizabeth thought. But then she saw the next event and saw why.

"Ha ha honey you are so funny, you are with me." Nancy leaned up and forced his lips onto hers.

"Jack…" Elizabeth started crying, and ran away.

"Elizabeth!" Jack yelled after he pushed Nancy off of him, and started running after her. Nancy started chasing Jack, because she didn't know what he was doing, he was playing hard to get she figured.

Elizabeth ran faster than Jack, because she had had that running head start, and immediately got her key from the hotel. She rushed into her room, and slammed the door.

Jack ran in and asked if an Elizabeth Thatcher had registered, which she had, and she just happened to have the room next to his, so their rooms were joined by the bathroom. He quickly locked his door, because he heard Nancy rushing up the stairs after him, and took a deep breath, and entered the bathroom. He got ready to explain everything to Elizabeth, and slowly opened the door to her room, which she hadn't locked yet. He saw her, her face in her pillow, as she sobbed. Jack slowly sat down on the bed, and rubbed her back, he felt part of her corset, and blushed, but the rubbing slowly calmed Elizabeth down.

"Elizabeth, I'm sorry. She did it." Jack apologized.

"Jack, I don't think you would cheat on me, but I thought you were." Elizabeth turned over.

"Elizabeth, I would never cheat on you, my heart is true to you." Jack looked into her tear filled eyes.

"Oh Jack, I didn't know what to think, I just saw that, and just started running." Elizabeth wrapped her arms around Jack in a hug.

"Elizabeth, I'm yours, and Nancy couldn't understand I have a special girl in my life, already."

"Oh Jack, I'm yours too." Elizabeth cried into his chest, as he held her close.

Jack comforted Elizabeth for another minute, then their lips met, and they kissed.

"Now that is who I want to kiss for the rest of my life." Jack gently kissed below her ear.

"Oh Jack, I could never imagine myself with anyone else." Elizabeth wiped away a tear.

"I want you to close your eyes, and feel what I put into your hands." Jack ordered. Elizabeth did as she was told, and Jack put a velvet box in her hands.

"Would I get that if I were not true to you?" Jack asked, as he watched Elizabeth's lips curl into a smile.

"Oh Jack, is it a ring box?" Elizabeth asked getting excited.

"Maybe…" Jack smiled and took the box back and put it back into his pocket.

Elizabeth opened her eyes, and threw her arms around Jack and her tears changed to tears of joy.

"I'm waiting for the perfect moment, but I want you to know I am ready." Jack gently rubbed her nose with his.

"Oh Jack, I will wait as long as it takes to be with you." Elizabeth looked at him with her loving eyes.

"Give me the time to plan the perfect night, please." Jack took a gentle hold of her hand.

"Oh Jack, I'll wait. I love you, and I will wait for as long as it takes." Elizabeth buried her head in Jack's chest as she hugged him.
