I think this will be the last chapter. If I get hit with newfound inspiration, I'll keep going. If not, please look forward to my other stories. By the way, Jesse doesn't die! Just in case some of you were dying to find out. It's actually pretty funny.


Chapter 7

They looked down and saw…

A REALLY LAUGHABLE SCENE!

Jesse had jumped off a small, five-foot tall cliff and landed inside a large boat. The owner of the boat had set up cushions and pillows for an outdoor slumber party (Huh?!) so Jesse was unharmed.

"Me golly! What's a lad like yourself doin' jumpin' offa cliffs an' into' me boat?!" The heavily accented and slightly crazed old man questioned.

He gave Jesse a once-over and determined that he wasn't crazy, just emotionally hurt.

"Ahh, young luv. It really bring out me feel for ya, younglin'. So, who be the girl ye thinkin' of, laddy?"

Jesse shook his head and gained his senses back. His first reaction was, "Is this Heaven?"

Then he noticed the scenery. It looked a lot like the ocean near Duel Academy.

"I must have landed in a boat." He finally realized.

"Ye sure did, laddy. What's yer name?" The old man lifted him up and helped him get his sea legs.

"My name's Jesse, Jesse Anderson. Who are you?"

"Why, I be the great Jericho Aledo, Sailor of the Seven Seas! What luck ye have that I be plannin' a party for me crew and set up all those there cushions for the night." He gave a hearty laugh and slapped Jesse on the back.

"I wouldn't really say it's good luck." He mumbled.

"Now, why would a boy like yerself be talkin' like that? Someone hurt yer heart?" He looked at him with compassion and understanding.

"I know it's not for me to say, but I got more wits than I look. I been through storms and quakes, but the most painful things I'se gone through is me heart bein' broken so many times." At this point, the old man had started to tear up. "An' the worst part is, I still gots no one for me heart. But don't let me getchu down, boy. You get back up and climb that there cliff. You find yer love and you tell 'em how much you love 'er."

"Thank you. At first, I was upset because I thought he loved someone else. But I've got my confidence back. Thank you, kind sir, for everything." Jesse gave him a slight bow and looked back up the cliff.

"Wait! It be a boy you lookin' for? I ain't never seen two men together last for long. That be a diffic-"

He never did finish because Jesse had already climbed out of the boat, grabbed onto a ledge sticking out of the cliff, and started to climb back up.

"May luck be wit' you." Jericho solemnly said as he bid the young boy farewell.

"Hey, soldier! Done chatting with the pirate?" Hassleberry called down, jokingly.

"Hassleberry! What are you doing here?" Jesse shouted back up.

"Well, the little shrimp here saw you trying to kill yourself and ran to get me."

"Yeah, and when we got here, we started laughing at how you and Jericho were talking! And hey! Who are you calling a shrimp?!" Syrus suddenly pointed accusingly at Hassleberry.

"Let's just focus on helping Private Anderson get up here."

"Actually, while you guys were arguing, I managed to find the strength to climb up myself." Jesse dusted off his clothes and took off, heading in the direction he had last seen Jaden at.

"Um, let's just pretend we never saw the whole cliff scene, okay?"

"Yeah, I don't know how we'd be able to explain it to anyone, anyway." Syrus responded.


(With Jesse)

'Jaden, I need to tell you how much I love you!' He thought as he searched for where Jaden could have gone.


(Meanwhile)

"And that's why my girlfriend left me." Wyatt finished as he sat on the comfortable chair provided by the therapist.

"Ah, I see. You've certainly been through some tough times. That's why you're here, though. Don't worry about a thing. We've had much worse cases before. There was this one girl who came to me with scars and bruises and she was always crying about something or other. I later managed to decipher that her boyfriend constantly beat her and she couldn't leave him or he'd kill her. It's quite a story." Wyatt's therapist, Dr. Thompson said.

"That's… so sad. Did she end up okay?" Genuine worry and concern was laced in his voice.

"Oh don't you worry! She's broken up with him, changed her identity, and he's been sent to prison. All's fair in love and war, I'm afraid."

"I'm glad I listened to you, Jaden. Being here really helps. Thank you, Dr. Thompson and thank you, Jaden." He said as he turned to look at Jaden.

Jaden smiled back and thanked Dr. Thompson, declaring that he would leave for now.

"I'll visit you at your dorm room tomorrow, okay?" Jaden asked Wyatt.

"Yeah, see you then." He smiled and turned back to discuss his parents with Dr. Thompson.

Jaden got to his room and shuffled around for a bit. He had sat down tiredly on his bed, when he heard a knock on his door.

He got up to open it and was soon wrapped in a warm pair of arms and being smothered with kisses. Of course, he wasn't objecting to it.

"Jesse! What are you doing here?" He leaned in for a quick kiss.

"I had to tell you that I'm sorry I misunderstood and that I love you so much."

"Well, that was easier than I thought! I figured you'd try to jump off a cliff. Ridiculous, right?"

"Umm, hehe, yeah. Pretty wild thoughts you've got there, Jay." Jesse said aloud. In his head, he was going, 'I hope no one tells him what I tried to do. He'd kill me for trying to kill myself, resulting in the possibility of no fun at night!'

"I know! Let's have that nonstop sex for hours that we never got to yesterday!" Jaden suddenly exclaimed.

"Works for me! But can you answer my question first?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"What were you doing with Wyatt?"

"I was finding a therapist for him!" Jaden grinned cutely.

"That's so thoughtful of you, but what were you doing, hugging him?"

"I was comforting him, what else?"

"So I tried to jump off a cliff because my boyfriend was being kind?!"

"You did what?! That's it! We're not having any physical contact until you get over suicide!"

"Wait! Please, don't do this! I made a mistake and I'm sorry. Does that mean no cuddling at night? I can't sleep without you in my arms! Waaahhh!" Jesse started bawling as Jaden just stared.

'Who knew Jesse could look so ADORABLE?! I feel like jumping him. Oh, what the heck?'

"Alright, just get in the bed. And be gentle, okay?" Jaden gave in. Who could resist Jesse for long, anyway?

"Yay! I'll get the lube!"

Jaden blushed. Even if they knew what they were doing, hearing something like that practically shouted out, was just plain embarrassing.

THE END

or maybe not…


I really hope that you thought this was funny enough. I tried my best to keep the humor level up, especially since the series is now over. I'M SO MISERABLE!! Usually, I'm not good at humor, so if I can get people to laugh, that'd really make my day. If any of you don't like the idea of character death, don't worry. I don't either, so I couldn't bear the thought of Jesse killing himself! I added in a pirate for good measure too! Remember that guy from Get Yarr Game On? That's the type of character I was going for. I also needed someone to make Jesse feel better.
