After years of searching, she had finally found her family along with her twin sister Emma but...

JACLYN WAS WORRIED. If you looked close enough you could see the lines of worry creasing her brow in the middle and even if she didn't imply that she was worried and continued to act like her brazen self. The crew knew that she was worried and seemed to heed her every request, no matter how small, knowing that something small was most likely to set off their hot-headed Captain
Jaclyn was worried...She wanted to fix it, she just didn't know how.
It had started a few hours after they boarded the ship, the excitement and the adrenaline of moving onto another adventure finally wearing off and Erica went quiet and drew back into herself, Jaclyn didn't really think anything of it at first. Certain that her Swan was just feeling a little overwhelmed
She didn't get worried until Erica had refused to get up in the morning, even when Jaclyn tried talking to her, coaxing her to get up with the promises of kisses and even jumping on the bed it was like Erica heard none of it
"Go away" She had mumbled, refusing to even lift her head
And over time the ball of worry that Jaclyn had in her gut only grew with every passing hour that came and went and her beautiful Swan still hadn't emerged from the Captain's Quarters but she hoped when Erica was ready she would come to her and they could talk.
An agonisingly long time had come and gone since then
The lump at the bottom of Jaclyn's bed hadn't moved in a week (even if the bed was slightly too small for two people. Neither seemed to mind but Jaclyn made a hammock for herself out of respect for Erica) no matter how many times people have wandered in and out to check if Erica was still breathing and functioning as a human being should be. No matter what harsh words were said to her, or whether the words were matched with a sweet undertone, it was like Erica Swan heard none of it. She was just trapped in her own head, reliving killing Alice over and over again
Until Jaclyn apparently had enough of it and about a week after they had bordered The Black Pearl and marched into the room ripping the covers off Erica's trembling body that was curled up in a ball and she didn't move even when Jaclyn crawled into the bed and wrapped her arms around the blonde's waist and began to kiss her up her jaw and neck when Erica gave no reaction Jaclyn sighed and got off the bed. Erica curled into a tighter ball, thinking she would finally be left alone
But that didn't quite work out
Suddenly Erica felt her ankles being grabbed as Jaclyn pulled her out of bed and she ended up sprawled out on the floor, barely enough time to register what was happening to her but she managed to put her hands out to stop herself from hitting her head and she gives her girlfriend a dirty glare but all the pirate does it smile back "No more bedrest for you sweetheart I'm going to get you acting human again"
