Hello, just to let you know, this chapter is going to be done from Cal's POV. I have now decided on an ending, so you shouldn't have to wait so long for updates while I think of inspiration. Thanks, Robyn x

Why was I sitting in this boat, about to be lowered to safety, when the love of my life is trying to save her own life? Well, I guess the answer to that is easy; I was scared. Scared of dying, I think. I wanted my own life more than I wanted hers. But then, a thought struck me, would I really want to live, knowing that I would never see her again? The answer to that would probably be no. So, what was I doing here?

I looked across at Lovejoy, who was nervously shuffling through some money. Taking this as a distraction, I suddenly, on impulse, launched myself back onto Titanic.

Lovejoy noticed me at once, making a wild grab for my ankle and calling, "Cal! What are you doing man? Get back here!"

But I was already back on the boat deck, looking around.

I knew I was probably running away from my only chance of survival, but that didn't matter now. All that mattered was that I found Scarlett.

I pushed through the hordes of panicking people. I was heading back to where I had left Scarlett; that seemed like a good place to start. Although, as I got closer, I thought the chances of her still being there were slim, I was sure Jack Dawson would have taken care of that.

I reached the spot and was dismayed to catch not a glimpse of Scarlett's beautiful red hair. My body heaving with disappointment , I turned to go, when someone bumped into me.

"Oh, sorry-" I muttered, but then realised who it was. Possibly the person who I least wanted to see at that moment; Lady Horsaw.

She was sobbing, and, after laying eyes on me, she threw herself into my arms.

"Oh, Caledon!" she exclaimed though her sobs "I know now that you will never love me as you love her! Forgive me for my sins! I should never have locked that wonderful girl in that room, I was clearly out of my mind, blinded with love, oh Caledon!" And she went off in a peal of sobs, raising steadily in volume.

"Um, there, there." I said, patting her awkwardly, "There's no need..."

"Oh!" cried Lady Horsaw, appearing to compose herself "No, I love you, but I know that you will never love me! So, I have saved the one you do love. I have put that darling servant girl on a lifeboat, so she will be safe! All I want is for you to be happy, and if that's with her and not me, then that's the way it is!"

I could hardly believe it. Lady Horsaw had saved Scarlett's life? After just trying to kill her? It seemed so unbelievable, yet I couldn't help feeling elated at her change of heart. She truly was a kind woman, and I thought that all of her previous sins should now be forgotten.

"You saved Scarlett, how can I ever repay you?" I thought for a moment "I know!" I said "Come with me, I can get you a seat on a lifeboat, there's one waiting just over here."

"Oh, Caledon, really. I don't need to..."

"Please, I insist. It's the least I can do now you have saved the love of my life."

I noticed a flash across Lady Horsaw's eyes as I said this, but a moment later, it was gone, and I felt sure I must have imagined it.

"Oh! Thank you, thank you!" cried Lady Horsaw continually, as I rushed her over to the lifeboat. I was extremely glad that it had decided to wait, and thanked the officer profoundly.

"Room for one more?" I asked, gesturing at Lady Horsaw.

"Jeez, Cal. You go off looking for one woman, and come back with another!" said Mr Lovejoy, although not unkindly.

We clambered into the lifeboat, everyone moving a little disgruntled, to make room for Lady Horsaw.
