NEW YORK

       "Hey missy why don't you jump off so I can get a story" Yelled a reporter to a lady on the edge of the ship.

       Rebecca and Jack were holding hands looking over the edge "I know him" Rebecca said to Jack "Hey Jim" Rebecca called waving her arm "I beat you to the story this time"

       "Rebecca, well, darm be it" Jim said angrily "I never thought... Well you got the story this time, but anything will sell if it mentions the Titanic in it"

       "But Jim, my stories will sell for more, lots more" Rebecca yelled back.

       "Rebecca" yelled another Reporter "Looks like you got the story and the man"

       Rebecca laughed "Looks like I did" She turned to Jack and they walked away from the edge. "There are going to be hearings, I'll have to be there, Will you stay in NY for a while with me?" Rebecca paused, two different worlds, two different lives, but she realized anything is possible.

       Jack held both of Rebecca's hands, "You know I have to finish up school in Haverford, but there's only a month left. After I graduate I'll return and find you." He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Thank you for this." Then he kissed her and they walked down the gangplank together with his Mother going ahead to greet the other Thayers who had come to meet them. Rebecca was swallowed up in her crowd of familiar reporters, and the kiss was the last interchange they had until...

       True to his word as always, Jack returned to New York City after his commencement. He found Rebecca quite easily, as her stories were always the most sold out and always on the front pages of the Times. They were reunited happily, and wed a few years later.

This is how the role play ended, but I have written more, come back soon to see what happens.
