=======================================
It had admittedly been a few days since the death of Robert Smith, and you came to realise that the money didn't matter anymore– in fact, it never had. Looking back, you've never remembered yourself thinking about the worth of your troubles.

To you, it was all about Edward.

Your mind took a while, but you figured it out. All that time– sailing alongside each other, giving advice, hell, even when you were in that cell together, you knew...

You had fallen in love.

There you sat, beside his bed, smiling at memories of the jokes and the looks you gave each other. It was one hell of an adventure, and you would gladly do it ten times over if it meant knowing Edward through its entirety.

The ship rocked gently back and forth. You pulled out the picture that was thankfully kept safe in your shirt; the picture of you and Edward. You looked over it with a smile. And then you remembered that kiss. Oh, you would do anything to kiss him again. The feeling of warmth from his lips and his hands as he held your cheek made you blush. You could remember every feeling; and your heart swelled just thinking about it.

There was a knock at the door.

"Hey." It was Jack. He came in, shutting the door behind him.
"Hi."
"No offence, but you look awful. Have you even slept?" You shook your head.
"I'm afraid, Jack," you sighed. "He hasn't woken up yet. What if he never does?"
"Hey, hey, hey!" He took a chair dragged it next to you, straddling the back of it. "Don't talk like that! His body's exhausted– he just needs rest. That's all it is. His body is exhausted. Give it time to heal."

"There isn't any time! He needs to eat! He hasn't been able to get any fluids in him either!"

"Hey, he's going to be fine! Don't talk like that. Anyway, I'll look after him for now. Besides, your and his gear is outside."

You were taken aback. "Really?! When did you get it?"
"We had a few of the crew– yours and his combined– go below deck to see if they could find anything. They found everything. Honestly, is it just me or am I telling countless stories?"

"Thank you, Jack." You meant what you said, and he gestured for you to go outside. You stood up and walked to the door.

Outside was brighter than you remembered. And there was an echo of cheers that exploded the minute your face was visible. "Captain!" Jones walked up to you. "Hi," you smiled warmly. "Glad to meet in safer circumstances."
"True, milady, true." You went around to greet everyone, earning various congratulations for taking down your brother's nemesis, to put it dramatically.

"Would you like a drink to celebrate?" One sailor kindly offered.
You had to decline. "Sorry, boys. I can't have fun without the full party. And they just happen to be in there." You pointed to the cabin.

"How about a song then, lads?" Your heart popped into confetti once you heard that voice.

Your head snapped toward the source of the sound, and without thinking, you ran into him. "Oh my God," you breathed into Edward's chest. "Oh my God." You sighed in relief. A hand brought itself to the back of your head.

"It's alright, lass." You felt a soft peck on the top of your head, which made you hold onto him even tighter. One hand brought your head under his chin, whilst the other wrapped around your torso.

You broke apart after what seemed like forever. "I got so worried!" You exclaimed.
"So I heard." His smug grin sat on his face proudly.
"Don't pull a stunt like that again!"

"No promises." He laughed. And with that, he brought your lips to his, and your racing heart muffled the roaring cheers of the crew, and the even louder whooping from your brother. You even heard someone grumpily say, "get a room!"

"Let's take this somewhere more private," you whispered in his ear.

He nodded in agreement. "What an idea..." he rumbled.

THE END

Okay, I felt like this was a better ending. I just felt like I would have added too much to that last chapter. I can tell that it's probably a sea of cringe, but what can you do? Tell me if you liked it, and remember that requests are open (Brooklyn Nine-Niners... *wink wonk*) for those who'd like a request :) Check the description for fandoms I'm in.

This is getting too long. Sorry XD
That's all.

Stay Strong Guys,
