One week later, Bella was walking on the beach with Henry, as she was about to leave with Jack.
"I will write to you." Bella says, tucking a strand of Henry's hair behind his ear.
"I was hoping you would." Henry says.
"Promise you won't miss me too much?" Bella says.
"Promise you won't think about me too much?" Henry says. They both chuckled softly. The tears welled up in Bella's eyes.
"I don't think there is a time where I won't think about you." Bella chokes.
"I don't think there is a time where I won't miss you." Henry says. The bell to Black Pearl rings, signaling that Bella should come.
"Henry, I have to leave." Bella says, placing her things in the rowboat.
"I won't forget you." Henry says, stroking her cheek.
"Neither will I, Mr. Turner." Bella says. She begins to push the row boat out, Henry turning to leave. Bella had an overwhelming inside of her, craving to be in Henry's arms. She fought the urge and kept packing. She closed her eyes and all she pictured was Henry's face. She turned around to see Henry walking slowly away, with his hands in his pocket.
"Henry." Bella breathed out, running towards him. He turns around to see Bella running towards him and instantly scooping her up and picking her up, Bella cupping his face as she pressed her lips tenderly to his, kicking her legs up in the air. Henry places her down, parting their lips. Henry's hands, gently cupping her face, as Bella's did the same.
"I love you." Bella whispered.
"I love you more." Henry whispered.
"I love you the most." Bella says. Bella lets go of him and then runs back to the rowboat pushing out and climbing inside. Henry waved to her, waving her farewell, as she waved back. Henry looked so small as she slowly came up the hull of the Black Pearl. The crew worked frantically to bring Bella up onto the Black Pearl. She jumped up onto the Pearl.
"Ready for another adventure, Father?" Bella asked, looking over at Jack.
"I think I have reached my horizon." Jack says looking over at her with a smile. Bella grabbed onto the cargo hold and looked over the sunset into the horizon, awaiting for another adventure.
