Angelica walked out of the bathroom and got dressed in her clothes.
Jack was not in the room, but she found a note with a single rise lying on the bed.
She picked it up and read it.
Dear Angelica,
I'm so sorry for what I've done. I was unsure what to do. I've decided it's your decision. I won't hold anything to you if you leave, but of course I will be overjoyed if you stay. You know where to find me when you make up your mind.
Sorry, Jack.
Angelica covered her mouth took the rose.
She twirled the rose in her fingers as her eyes filled with tears.
Several second passed, but eventually she darted out of the room and off the ship, to the pub.

---------------------------------------------

Jack sat lonely at his table in the back corner, his hat say low on his eyes to prevent anyone from seeing them 'water'.
Scarlett walked up to him a few times, but he ignored her.
Angelica burst through the doors and over to his table. She threw her arms around him.
"Angelica?" He pulled back and smiled at her teary face.
"I don't ever want you to leave me." She rubbed his cheek.
Scarlett cleared her throat with her hands on her hips.
"Yes?" Angelica stood up.
"I was here first!" She stomped her foot.
Angelica looked at Jack angrily.
"Long time ago, love." He explained.
"Well I'm here now." Angelica returned her attention to the snotty whore.
"Well leave!" Scarlett demanded.
"Make me." Angelica challenged.
Scarlett came at her, but Angelica drew a small dagger from her boot before she could touch her.
Scarlett huffed and stormed off.
"Where's your usual bottles?" Angelica sat down.
"I couldn't drink anything. Not with not knowing what your choice would be." He put his head down.
Angelica pretended to gasp. "Captain Jack Sparrow not able to drink?"
Jack chuckled.
"I think you knew pretty well what my choice would be. You know I love you right?" She leaned over and kissed him.
"As long as you know I love you." He returned. "I'm still so sorry." He held her hands.
"It's alright. It just scared me because you almost hurt me." She looked at the floor.
"Did I?" He gasped.
"I don't think you actually did, but you easily could've if I refused any more than I did." She said.
"How can you forgive me for that?" He asked.
"Love is a strange thing." She smiled. "Come on, let's go back to the ship." She took his hand and they walked back to the ship.
