LOVE IS MORE THAN A FEELING
Chapter Eight
The next day, Rose woke up
first. She noticed that Jack was still asleep, and she gave him a soft kiss.
She didn't mean to wake him, but she did.
"Rose?" Jack asked as he rubbed his
eyes.
"Oh, Jack. I'm sorry I woke you
up," Rose replied.
"That's okay, Rose. The kiss was worth
it," Jack said as he kissed her back.
"So, what are we going to do
today?" Rose asked.
"Do you think that we should head to the
pier?"
"Oh, Jack! That would be wonderful!"
"Good. Let's go get dressed, get some
breakfast, and head to the pier."
Jack got dressed quickly, knowing that Rose
took longer to get ready.
"Jack!"
"Yeah?" Jack asked as he approached
Rose.
"What dress do you think I should
wear?"
"Um…I don’t know. You look so good in
everything."
"Now, come on, Jack. Be serious!"
"I am being serious! But if you really
want my opinion, I think you should wear the peach dress you bought about a
week ago."
"All right. I will," Rose replied
as she started to change.
When Rose was finally done dressing, Jack had
already made breakfast. They quickly ate and left for the pier.
"That was a wonderful breakfast, Jack.
I'm surprised you are such a good cook."
"Thank you. I'm glad ya liked it."
"And, since you made breakfast, I'll
make you dinner tonight."
"That sounds wonderful, Rose."
Rose gasped as they reached the pier Jack had
been telling her all about.
"Jack! It's beautiful!"
"I thought you would like it. What would
you like to do first?"
"Um…that!" Rose said as she pointed
to the roller coaster.
"All right."
After Jack and Rose were done riding the
roller coaster, they decided to take a stroll on the beach.
"It's such a beautiful day," Rose
said as she looked up at the sky. "I never want it to end."
"Rose, would you like for me to show you
how to ride like a man?"
"Really? Of course!"
Jack took Rose to where they would ride. Jack
paid the man, and he even offered to take Jack and Rose's picture.
Jack and Rose posed on the horse, and he took
their picture and told them he would have it mailed to their home in New York.
Jack and Rose rode right in the surf. They
were having so much fun, they were sad when they had to return the horse.
After that, they went back to their beach
house. Rose cooked Jack supper.
After they were done eating, they got ready
for bed.
"Are you tired, Rose?" Jack asked when
she got in bed.
"No. Not really. I had so much fun
today!"
"Rose, can I take you back to the
stars?" Jack asked as he held her in his arms.
"Of course you can, Mr. Dawson."
