SIMPLICITY
Simplicity. Not exactly something most people strive for, but it's what I strive for. And with the life I've chosen, it's proving to be a rather difficult task.
I, Elizabeth "Lizzie" Swann have chosen the life of a pirate. I've chosen to leave behind Commodore James Norrington and blacksmith Will Turner. I chose to leave behind my father, Governor Swann and all of his, as well as Port Royals expectations of me. My choice has become the biggest scandal ever to be uttered by all of Port Royals gossips.
I fear I have ruined my father, yet I do no regret my choice. I am not meant to be trapped in corsets and high society with all its frivolities.
I have tasted freedom and it is an addiction I am not willing to break. Curiosity has come out on top, but I am ecstatic.
But curiosity hasn't only beaten out me for the chance to come out on top. No, curiosity has also ruffled the feathers of a certain Captain Jack Sparrow. And whether he is as ecstatic as I, I cannot say. For it isn't often that Captain Sparrow is knocked off his high horse.
We've had our moments, Jack and I, since the departure of James and Will. But nothing to soothe all our curiosities, just remedies to help smooth them out.
We seem to be caught in a dance of our own, Jack and I. We entertain each other when it suits our fancy and we skirt around each other when it doesn't.
I am willing to make it more then something casual, more then willing really. But for now, I'll let Jack take the lead.
And in the end maybe simplicity won't have been the best goal to strive for. Then again, I've always liked a challenge.
