Drabble: 'Night One' (J/E - PG - 300 words - Theme: 'Promise')
Hoping artaxastra doesn't mind, but I've been rereading her wonderful PotC stories off and on for the last couple of weeks and, as has frequently happened in the past, was inspired to write fic for her fic. This is Jack's pov, set just before Watching Over You, which is set just after that One Day.
( He has always watched over her, from the moment she fell from the cliff into blue water... )

You taught me bittersweet==the way we all as humans will poke our own bruises to see if they really hurt so we'll know we're alive. It's also those growing pains we have from day one to last... Jack is like equal parts mind and heart and I'm sorta of the thinkin' that his heart is the driver in truth, that twisty mind working its butt off to "make it so". Kinda like that scene in DMC where he tells Gibbs I have great faith in your concillatory ? navigation skills, keep close, but sail...etc
Man, when it gets dark, after I eat my pile of microwaved garlic (keeps skeeters off) on buttered bread and whatever else is here I'm going to read the other stories... Love your language your way with words...like a bias cut satin dress (those hotcha ones from the old old movies...), flowing, swirling mystifying, cos the material just shimmers. That's what this is. Knocks my socks off....Now I'm gonna drive over to Port A on the coast and bird my little way sTX boioty smooth off! And maybe indulge in another chocolate martini, just discovered there can be fun had without tequila or rum, tho those are my favorites. As always, more please.

I am so happy you liked this scene, and that it brightened your hectic (but hopefully satisfying) day. *Hugs!*
