~I lived, how awkward for you~

**Rose is on the Carpathia and Cal comes down looking for her. In the movie, he never sees her, but originally James Cameron wrote it so he did...**

Rose is sipping hot tea. Her eyes focus on him as he approaches her. He barely recognizes her. She looks like a refugee, her matted hair hanging in her eyes.

ROSE
Yes, I lived. How awkward for you.

CAL
Rose...your mother and I have been looking for you--

She holds up her hand, stopping him.

ROSE
Please don't. Don't talk. Just listen. We will make a deal, since that is something you understand. From this moment on you do not exist for me, nor I for you. You shall not see me again. And you will not attempt to find me. In return I will keep my silence. Your actions last night need never come to light, and you will get to keep the honor you have so carefully purchased.

She fixes with a glare as cold and hard as the ice which changed their lives.

ROSE
Is this in anyway unclear?

CAL (after a long beat)
What do I tell your mother?

ROSE
Tell her that her daughter died on the Titanic.

She stands, turning to the rail. Dismissing him. We see Cal stricken with emotion.

CAL
You're precious to me Rose

ROSE
Jewels are precious. Goodbye Mr. Hockley.

We see that in his way, the only way he knows, he does truly love her.
