Rose didn't go back with the others. After the dance, she went to the rose garden with Albert...
- This garden is wonderful! All those white roses...
- My nephew created them...
- He was very talented...
- They are not as beautiful as you, Rose...
- Oh Albert, you're making me think about things I thought I've forgotten... Jack's father died on the Titanic
- Yes, the one who took Candy under his wing... it's funny that he considered her immediately like his sister...
- Yes, those two were in love like brother and sister...
- You have no one in your life?
- I'm taking care of my son.
- But he's going to end up leaving and you're going to be alone
- You have something to offer me?
- You could be with me, I'll take care of you...
- Oh Albert...
- I can take care of you; you can continue being an actress...
- You're too good to be true... you wouldn't ask me to give up my career?
- Of course not... I'm for the female emancipation.
- Incredible! You're the first man who excites me since...
Albert approached her. He took her in his arms and he put his lips on hers. His mouth started searching hers avidly. Rose kissed him back fierily. She thought her world has stopped when Jack died; well it had just started again with Albert.
All of Albert senses were in alert; he wanted that woman like he never wanted anybody before... he started caressing her back...
- If I invite you to my room, would you be offended?
- I haven't had any lover since Jack, but I slept with him, just before the Titanic hit the iceberg... I had met him not too long ago, but I knew I loved him... like I know I like you... let's go to your room Albert...
- Ok...
He took her hand and they went upstairs using the back stairs. He took her to his bedroom and they made love...
- I feel like I'm alive again...It was like I had died with Jack/
- Welcome back to the world of the living my love...
- It's good to be alive, she said smiling, I'd forgotten the sensation... I want to feel that again... can we do it again?
- With pleasure, my darling.
He took her lips...
oOoOoOoOoOo
Candy woke up in Terry's arms. She didn't want to leave them.
- Snow-White? He said.
- Yes, my prince...
- I love you...
- I love you...
She closed her eyes and she was so happy in Terry's arms.
- We have to get up, said Terry
- Yes...
- You want to come and shower with me?
- I'm right behind you...
Terry got out of bed and when to the adjacent bathroom, he was already naked and Candy stood up, naked too to follow him... In the bathroom, they made love under the shower...
They went downstairs at lunch time... they found the children in the dining room with Eleonor.
- Where's Rose? Asked Candy
- She hasn't come back yet, said Eleonor
- What? Said Candy, she's still at the manor?
- With Albert, said Jack bitter.
- Oh... well if she becomes my mommy, I will be very happy, said Candy
Terry looked at Jack.
- Jack, during all these years, have you seen your mother with a man?
- Aside from you? No...
- Your mother and I are just friends, said Terry, she was never able to forget your father...
- And if Albert makes her happy, it's a good thing, said Candy.
- He's a good man and he's going to treat you mother right...
- I know, said Jack, it's just funny to imagine...
- Don't think about it, said Candy smiling
- Your mother is happy, said Terry, that's what matters
- Mum, dad, said Roselyne, it's good to see you two together.
- It feels good to be in a real family with a mum and a dad, said Dawson.
- You're going to stop getting into trouble? Said Roselyne
- Yes, I won't play the tough guy anymore, said Dawson, I want to spent time with my father
- Thank God! Said Candy looking at Terry, Dawson was putting himself in the most impossible situations, to get my attention...
- Like what? Asked Terry looking at his son
- Well, I stole a car once...
- Or he would be with his friends who stole stuff and he would go back to the store to pay for what were stolen, said Roselyne
- The store owner wouldn't call the police on you?
- I'm a smooth talker dad... I knew how to get out of the situation...
- In fact, you were trying to be bad without really being bad...
- He need a man's presence and Winston could do it, said Candy
- In fact, it seems like the dandy made Dawson worse, said Roselyne
- I'm here now buddy, said Terry
Jack was still thinking about his mother...
