Three
months had gone by since baby Jacqueline was born. Jack and Jake had perfected things on the Pearl to the
point that neither parent had the slightest worry about their child’s
welfare. Even Elizabeth had been
satisfied with the arrangements.
With the Mercenary now
sailing with the Pearl, Jack had taken to the title of “Commodore
Sparrow” quite well – however, he let Jake call each and every shot on his own
ship. Things were going quite well for
all, though Jack honestly had no immediate destination in mind. They had sailed to a small island by the
name of Sima to search out a treasure rumored to be there; several precious
gems and pound of gold and silver later, they were on their way…they sailed
simply because they could. Jack wasn’t
concerned with much more than being a father – to both his infant daughter and
teenaged son.
Though Jake covered it up well, Jack understood that his
son missed having someone special in his life.
He barely ever mentioned Nicolette anymore; it seemed as though even her
name pained him. Jack hoped that
somewhere in their travels, his son would once again come across love.
Noel and Nicolette were living a
life that could have been construed as perfect, but quiet. Nic had taken to writing again, although she
found it difficult at first. Every time
she lifted her quill, she thought of how Jake had bought her journals…the
memory didn’t fade, but it lost its potency as life with Noel continued. Noel took her to every social function that
occurred in Tyrine, proud to have her on his arm, still amazed that she was his
wife.
Physically, the couple was…shall we say, occupied. Nicolette thought that she and Jake were an
adventurous couple when it came to lovemaking, but when she and Noel were alone,
an entirely new world was opened to her.
At first, Nic was hesitant to try “new things” but soon after the
honeymoon, she found herself begging for Noel to do things she’d never
imagined. Their love life was never
dull…
Anchors had been lowered for the night, Jack and Loralei
had retired to their cabin, and Jake was wandering the deck of the Mercenary. He had come to a decision and needed to talk
to his father about it. He jumped ships
and made his way to his parents’ door.
Loralei had just finished nursing Jacqueline and called
out, “Yes?”
“Mum, s’me. Can I
come in?”
“Course ye can, lad,” Jack answered. The door opened and Jake walked in. He saw his father holding his little sister
and he smiled. Jack didn’t look up
right away, he was too busy smiling down at “Jackie” as she’d been deemed, who
was focusing on capturing one of her father’s beard braids in her tiny hand.
“Dad?”
“Aye?” Jack finally
looked up and Jackie captured her prize.
“Ow,” he laughed.
“Dad, can we talk about somethin’?”
The tone in Jake’s voice let Jack know that this was
something bigger than, “Me crew is drivin’ me nuts.” “Son?”
“I wan’ t’ go t’ Tyrine.”
Jack was silent, waiting for his son to continue. “I wan’ t’ move on with me life, Dad, an’
I’ve been tryin’, but I jus’ feel like before I can find another love, I need
t’ say g’bye t’ me first one…properly.”
Loralei sat by, simply listening, understanding, and feeling her heart
break for her son.
Jackie began to whine a bit in Jack’s arms, he simply
adjusted her, stroked her cheek, and she was happy again. “We’ll plot our course tonight, Jake.” His voice was soft, but sure.
“Thank ye, Dad.”
Jack smiled and
nodded. “Let me put yer sister t’ bed
an’ we’ll start.” The pirate stood without
disturbing his daughter and took her into her nursery, which was attached to
his cabin. He placed her in her crib,
kissed the top of her head, and tucked her in – she was asleep almost
instantly. When he returned to his
cabin, he was pleased to find Loralei and Jake standing over a map, Loralei
trying to show him why the course she had pointed out would save them a few
days travel. “Ye should listen t’ yer
Mum, Jake, she had a pretty good teacher.”
The three of them
agreed on how they would sail come morning – in three days, they’d be in
Tyrine.
