OUR NEW LIFE
Written by The Phantom It
14
Based on some situations originated by James Cameron.
The tattered walls all around me
began to become beautiful again, just like they had been when the Titanic was
new. I knew my way around this ship, even after not being on it for over eighty
years.
I walked to the dining room, and
sure enough, there was the doorman, waiting for me. Inside were all the people
I had met on the Titanic--Mr. Andrews, the captain, and many others. And there
was Jack, waiting for me by the clock like he had been the night we went
dancing.
As I walked up the stairs, he
turned and faced me. He looked just the same as he had eighty-four years ago.
As I reached the top step, he kissed me. It was like no kiss I had experienced
when I was alive. The people applauded, and we pulled away.
"I thought I’d never see you
again," I whispered.
"Rose, I would never leave.
Not in a million years."
"Where have you been all
this long time?"
"I was with you. I was
beside you when you got married and sent your children to school. I was always
there, Rose."
"I should have known."
"There was no way you could
have. But we’re together now, Rose. That’s the only thing that matters."
He kissed me again. My new life lay before me, with Jack’s hand in mine. Our
new life.
The End.
