"Go ahead, Elizabeth! Run off with Jack!"

His eyes were as cold as the Artic His gaze peirced through her. His tone made Elizabeth's blood freeze in her veins. She took a deep breath to clear her mind and once again stared into those pools of dark brown that were Will Turner's eyes.

"Will, you don't---"

"Oh, I understand completely, Elizabeth!"

He misunderstood. All she wanted was to sail again. What? Did he expect her to become a captain herself? To pick up a crew in Tortuga? To become a pirate on her own? She had come to tell him, so he wouldn't feel she was abandoning him, that she was going with Jack just to sail again. Now he was yelling. She winced at how loud he was and the way he yelled the word "completely."

"Will, just listen! Please!" She raised her voice to the point of screaming, which got his attention. He stared at her with an intensity she could not handle. She cleared her throat. "As I told you before, it's only to sail again."

"But what if you fall in love with him? You know what will happen to me! I'll stay this way! I can't handle that!"

She turned to him such a fury in her eyes he had never seen before. Not even at Jack... "You think I would fall for Jack Sparrow?! You think I would disregard you, my husband for some...some...rumsoaked pirate?! How can you?!" she screamed. "How could you think that?! I would never..." She couldn't even finish her sentence, the fury was to much. A fire flamed up in her eyes and her face was etched with anger. She had turned almost immediately. Elizabeth just couldn't believe Will would think those things!

"Ok. Ok, Elizabeth..." He sat down and calmed himself.

"No, it's not ok! How could you think that, Will?!" She hesitated, anticipating an answer. "Answer the question!"

He had had enough "Because of the kiss, Elizabeth! Because of the kiss!" He stood up. "The kiss that haunted me until we found Jack and he finally told me the truth! Since you didn't! Those brown eyes stared coldly at her again. "The kiss..." he softened his voice and looked at her desperately.

"The kiss meant nothing!" she explained.

" 'Nothing' ?!" he echoed. "That kiss meant everything!" Will resumed his yelling.

"Will---" She choked back a sob.

"No!" He got in her face. "Don't try to explain it away, Elizabeth!"

Now, Elizabeth let the tears fall freely down her face as she glared at Will.

"So you think crying will make my anger go away? Stop crying! If you think it will make me believe you any better, then you're wrong!" He gazed at her furiously, his face red with anger.

"I'm crying because I can't believe you won't believe me!" she shouted, trembling with fury. "It was a distraction! Will, you're breaking my heart!" She ran out of the room and up onto the deck of the Flying Dutchman. She ran to the rail and sobbed tremendously. It was a few minutes later that she noticed Will beside her.

"If you want to run away with Jack, fine Elizabeth, go." His eyes nor his manner had changed while he watched her cry.

He really wanted her to go! This spurred her anger further. She shoved him and ran to the other side of the ship. Will picked himself up off the ground and followed her. But that's when she dove over the side.

She resurfaced a few seconds later, gasping for air. When she finally caught her breath, she turned to the ship, treading water. "Goodbye, Will Turner... I sincerely hope our paths never cross again." She turned to swim away but she heard Will's voice call out from the ship.

"You do know that we are still married. The only way to break that is to divorce or your spouse be dead." Will explained, smiling.

Elizabeth turned around again, her eyes narrowed. "You're already dead to me Mr. Turner..." And with that, she swam away to the shore...
