"Leave me alone," Rose said, and pushed past Jack, leaving him standing there all alone.
Guess mine is not the first heart broken.
He felt like she had ruthlessly pounded him until he was bleeding, bruised, and broken. He would have preferred that, actually. His heart felt worse.
My eyes are not the first to cry.
Jack had a few isms that he lived by. Live life for the moment, grab every chance you get, laugh in the face of danger, always be brave, and never cry. He nearly broke that last one, though.
I'm not the first to know,
There's just no getting over you.
People in the gymnasium were looking at him oddly, but he didn’t care. His instincts told him to get out of there, because someone would suspect something, so he left the room and began to walk slowly, feet strangely following the path that they had taken a day ago when he had talked to Rose. He was still clinging to her, even though she had rejected him.
Hello, I'm just a fool who's willing
To sit around and wait for you
But baby can't you see, there's nothing else for me to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you.
The irony of it toyed with him. A few days ago, he had felt so free, as he always did. Now he was enslaved by his own love. The way she treated him made his mood.
But now there's nowhere to hide,
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm not in my head,
Hopelessly devoted to you.
Now that she had treated him badly, he was miserable. But there was no one else, nowhere for him to go. His feet took him down to his cabin. Then he realized he didn’t want to be around his best friend, who would want to talk. He murmured something about going up to the bow, and his legs carried him there. He was so lost in his thoughts that his brain was disconnected from everything else.
Hopelessly devoted to you,
Hopelessly devoted to you.
He was completely Rose’s, whether she knew it or not and whether she liked it or not.
My head is saying, "Fool, forget her."
My heart is saying, "Don't let go."
Hold on to the end,
That's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you.
Almost every part of him was saying it wasn’t worth it, the walking, the sadness, the pain. He hadn’t felt real love since his parents had died five years ago. That had taught him. But you can’t run away from your feelings, he supposed. His heart couldn’t let her go.
But now there's nowhere to hide,
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm not in my head,
Hopelessly devoted to you.
He was crazy. This whole thing was crazy. He should give it up and walk away. But he knew better. It wasn’t that easy. It was never that easy.
Hopelessly devoted to you.
"Hello, Jack."
Hopelessly devoted to you.
But he’d been wrong before.
He turned. There she was, in all her glory. Rose DeWitt Bukater. The only woman he’d ever love.
I wonder how I ever made it through a day
How did I settle for the world in shades of gray?
She shrugged her shoulders. "I changed my mind. They said you might be up--"
He silenced her. "Give me your hand," he said, whispering.
When you go in circles all the scenery looks the same
And you don't know why
And I looked into your eyes.
She walked up to him. "Close your eyes," Jack said, still whispering. She looked at him quizzically for a moment, then, smile on her lips, closed them.
Where the road stretched out in front of me
And I realized.
He led her to the railing. "Do you trust me?" he asked.
"I trust you."
I'd never lived
Before your love.
"Step onto the rail. And keep your eyes closed. Don’t peek."
"I’m not."
I'd never felt
Before your touch.
He took her arms and lifted them. When his hands left her arms and settled on her waist, she kept them stretched out, like wings.
And I'd never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again,
I wasn't really living
I'd never lived...
Before your love.
"Open your eyes."
I wanted more than just an ordinary life
All of my dreams seemed like castles in the sky.
She slowly opened her eyes to a gorgeous sunset. All she could see was miles and miles of water. All she could feel were Jack’s hands on her waist. The wind played with her curls. There was no ship under them. She felt weightless, like she was flying.
I stand before you and my heart is in your hands
And I don't know how
I'd survive without your kiss
‘Cause you've given me
A reason to exist.
"I’m flying!" she exclaimed breathlessly. "Jack!"
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch.
His hands extended until they were caressing hers, and he sang right in her ear, "Come Josephine in my flying machine, going up she goes, up she goes…"
I'd never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again,
I wasn't really living
I'd never lived...before your love
I'd never lived...before your love.
Jack lowered his arms, and hers followed them towards her waist. She turned her face towards his, and found it much closer than she bargained for.
And I don’t know why
The sun decides to shine
But you’ve breathed your love into me just in time.
Then his lips were on hers, and her thoughts were gone.
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch.
She felt as if her whole life had led up to this moment, both of them balanced on the grandest ship to sail the seven seas.
I'd never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living.
Jack Dawson had saved her.
I'd never lived
I'd never lived
Before...
Your...
Love...
He had taught her how to live.
The End.
