A Love Never Fading: Chapter 7


Rated PG-13
© 1999 Isobel Christian @ ELIZAFAIR@aol.com
based on some characters
and situations originated by James Cameron

As Rose watched Cal fade into the distance she felt a tremendous weight lift off her shoulders. Now she was finally free. She could spend the rest of her life happy. Everything was taken care of. That horrible chapter of her life was over. Anything she ever needed or wanted was right there with her. A much welcomed weight began to press down on her.

It was Jack, he pressed his hands down on her shoulders as a sign of support. What was running through his mind was a far cry from Roses thoughts. Maybe Cal was right. Did Rose belong in that world? He wanted her so badly. However, he had nothing to give her or offer her. In the first class world she would have everything. He began to feel sick at the thought of Rose being unhappy with him in a few years. Things were fine now, but would she grow to resent him?

Rose must have felt Jacks uncomfortableness. She turned around and saw a terrible look of fear in Jack's eyes. She lifted her hands and placed them gently on his face. "What's wrong?" she spoke in a very nurturing tone.

"Rose" Jack voice was trembling with fear. "I don't want you to hate me. I have nothing to offer you. Nothing."

"Oh Jack, you are such a liar. You have more to offer me than anyone or anything in the entire world." She looked at him with tenderness.

"What? Rose I have nothing. Do you understand me, nothing. I told you that I have ten bucks in my pocket. And that's it."

Rose placed her finger on Jacks lips."Your love,Jack,thats what you have to offer me. Love. You have given me freedom, hope, life. But most importantly love. That's all I want and could ever want."

She leaned in and kiss him. In a brief second all of the fears Jack had disappeared.

As the kiss deepened both Jack and Rose thought about the life they would have. And how nothing mattered, not money, not living accommodations, not anything. Accept each other. As long as they had each other everything would be perfect.

For another few hours Jack and Rose just walked around the deck. They stared into each others eyes. Held one other, and kissed. Each time the passion and love grew stronger and stronger between them.

Finally their bodies succumbed to nature and they grew tired."Do you want to go inside and sleep now, Rose?"

"No, I would rather stay out here."

They walked over to a bench and laid down. Jack held Rose tightly and they wrapped the thick coat and blanket that Rose had been using around each other. The last words they spoke to each other before drifting into a peaceful slumber were "I love you."
