Jack POV:

I looked through the circular window to see ocean filling it up. The ship was sinking. And here I was, trapped in a room. I watched as Lovejoy rolled bullets down the table, before putting them back into the gun and walking up to me. "You know, I do believe this ship may sink." He informed me. He took a few more steps closer. "I've been asked to give you this small token of our appreciation," he began, before punching me in the gut, full force. I winced in pain as I kneeled down. It hurt like fuck. I couldn't believe I was going through all of this, simply just for falling in love with someone. "Compliments of Mr Caledon Hockley". I breathed heavily through the pain as he picked up the handcuff key and placed it back into his pocket before exiting the room, leaving me trapped there to drown.

Rose POV:

As first class people were being boarded into lifeboats, I stared at the fireworks being soared into the night sky. "Will the lifeboats be seated according to class?" Mother asked before laughing. "I hope they're not too crowded." I glared at her in utter disgust. The ship was sinking, people were going to die and that was her first thought? "Oh, mother. Shut up! Don't you understand? The water is freezing and there aren't enough boats. Not enough by half. Half the people on this ship are going to die." I told her, hopefully getting through to her brain for once. Cal smirked before commenting, "Not the better half." I couldn't believe him. Didn't he care that most of the people would die? Of course he didn't because he only cared about himself. He was too self centered to give a damn.

Mother slowly stepped into the lifeboat, sitting next to Molly. I was still glaring at Cal. "You know its a pity I didn't keep that drawing. It'll be worth a lot more by morning." He snarled. What a disgusting human being. Slowly but surely, the realisation hit me. Jack was innocent. Cal framed him to get us away from each other. And I didn't believe him. I let him get arrested and taken away. He could die because of me. "You unimaginable bastard." I blurted, shaking my head. "Come on, Rose, darling, theres plenty room for you. Come on, Rose, you're next darling," Molly said, outstretching her hand for me to grab. Mother outstretched her hand too. "Come into the boat, Rose," she instructed. I stared at them blankly, not moving a muscle. "Rose, get into the boat!" She demanded. I glared at her. "Goodbye, mother," I said, turning and walking away from her as I heard her yelling my name in the distance.

I heard some footsteps run up to me and someone grabbed me from behind. It was Cal. "Where are you going?!" I narrowed my eyes at him as realisation hit his face. "What, to him?! To be a whore to a gutter rat?!" He hurled angrily. I leaned close to his face and frowned. "I'd rather be his whore than your wife," I snarled. I went to walk away but he grabbed me and wouldn't let go. "NO! NO! I SAID NO!" I tried to fight him off of me but his grip was too strong. Then I remembered something. I hocked up as much spit as I possibly could and spat it right into his face, just like Jack had taught me to do. I then ran as he wiped the spit off of his nose.

Ruth POV:

I yelled Rose's name as loud as I could. I know I had been rather hard on her for her whole life but that didn't mean I didn't love her. She was my daughter and I couldn't be separated from her while the ship was sinking. I desperately screamed for her to come back but there as no sign of her returning. The crewmen ordered for the lifeboat containing me, Mollyanr other first class passengers to be lowered. I begged them to wait for my daughter but they ignored my pleading. The boat lowered slowly as I screamed for her to come back.
