A Pirate's love

Chapter 54

•• •••••~5 years later~••••• ••

Jack sat in his cabin, alone. It had been 5 years since the death of his love, and he had never tried to love again. At least the day was almost over, he had put 6 year old Jackie to bed and all the crew were resting. Gibbs knocked on the door, funny.. last time he did that he interrupted our moment... Jack sulked.
Gibbs impatiently entered, "Jack, are you ok?" He asked, actually sounding worried.
"Yes I am fine Master Gibbs, go to your cabin." Jack ordered and Gibbs shrugged and walked to his cabin.
Jack reluctantly got in bed, saving a spot for her, just in case.
He sighed and let sleep take over, but right before it pulled him under, he heard a creak. Jack opened one eye and saw a shadow flash by. Then he sat up, confused. He looked around and his gaze stopped in the spot beside him. Angelica sat in her usual spot, smiling as bright as ever.
Jack shrieked and got up out of bed. Angelica looked confused. "Jack what are you doing?"
"You- you are dead. You're supposed to be dead, not here in bed. What- why?!?" Jack paced.
"Calm down.." Angelica came closer to him and Jack backed away.
"Don't come closer. explain." Jack stared at her.
Angelica explained everything getting some reaction from Jack, but most the time he wasn't listening. He was trying to stick his hand through her, which failed.
"Jack I'm not a ghost. Tia resurrected me. I'm not even undead!" She was so happy.
Jack edged closer and closer to her. When he was near enough he lunged at her, pinning her down on the bed to hug her.
"You're back! I don't care how or who or whatever but you're back." Jack pulled away to stare into her eyes. "I never stopped loving you. Never once went to a brothel, used a whore, or tried to find someone else. You are my love."
Angelica put a soft, gentle finger on the tip of his nose. "I wouldn't doubt you mi coráson."
They stayed this way for a long time, in each other arms with love in their eyes.
