So this is my first attempt at a Pirate Of The Caribbean fanfiction and my first attempt at a Will/OC story. I hope you like it!

Should've Said No

Charlotte stared at the dress lying out on her bed and debated whether to wear it or wear another. Her uncle, Governor Swan, had bought two dresses, one for Elizabeth and one for her. She knew that the dress she had received was second to Elizabeth's but she didn't mind much. Charlotte knew that Elizabeth needed a special dress for a special occasion.

"It's not like this dress isn't beautiful." Charlotte muttered to herself as she ran her fingers over the fabric and smiled sadly to herself.

Her parents had died when Charlotte was only eight and she hadn't remembered much of that day. There were only a couple of things that she remembers. The one thing she remembers are the maids that woke her up in the middle of the night. The other is the rain; she remembers the rain very clearly.

'It rained so much that some of the streets were impassable.' Charlotte thought to herself before she shook her head and forced those thoughts out of her head.

'That was such a long time ago. It is time to let it go.' Charlotte sighed and she stood up straight and pulled her robe tighter to her body as she waited for her maid to come.

"Excuse me Miss?" Charlotte heard a knock on the door and she walked over to her bedroom door and opened it for her maid.

"Do you like the dress Miss?" Charlotte nodded at her maid and she cast another look at the dress.

"I don't mean to rush you Miss but you must get dressed quickly." Charlotte didn't say anything but she nodded at the maid and she quickly followed.

Charlotte stood behind the changing screen and she gasped loudly when she felt the maid tug on the strings attached to her dress. She tried as hard as she could to bite her tongue instead of saying anything to the maid.

"It's quite tight isn't it?" Charlotte asked the maid curiously who apologised quietly.

"There you are Miss. All ready to go." Charlotte smiled and she stood up straight and rest her hands on the bodice of the dress and ran her fingers over the patterns.

"You look beautiful Miss." Charlotte snapped her head up and stared at her reflection on the mirror. It took her a moment to realize that the person in the mirror was her and not her mother.

"I look just like my mother." Charlotte mumbled to herself as she touched her cheeks and mouth.

"Miss? Are you ready to go?" Charlotte nodded and she turned and followed the maid out of her room and into the hall.

Charlotte began walking down the stairs deep in her thoughts when she felt a pair of eyes on her. Quickly Charlotte looked up and her green eyes met a pair of brown eyes that were giving her a curious look.

"Hello Mr. Turner." Charlotte greeted William Turner kindly while trying to fight off a blush.

She had had feelings for William Turner since he had been rescued from the ocean. She had been curious at first but then her curiosity turned into more. But Charlotte knew where his affections lay and while she tried not to be jealous, she was.

"Good day Miss Swan. You looked beautiful." Charlotte blushed at the compliment and she looked down for a moment before she looked up again.

Charlotte took in his appearance quickly and she saw that he had cleaned up, or at least tried his best to. She could still see some dirt on his boots and even some on his pants. Charlotte took her attention off of him for a moment when she heard a door opening and closing again.

"Thank you Mr. Turner." Charlotte gave William a kind smiled before she bowed her head a little. She was used to getting compliments from her maids and from her uncle but not from the man that she had feelings for.

"Please Miss Swan, call me Will." Charlotte looked up at Will and nodded her head politely.

"If I must call you Will then you must call me Charlotte." Charlotte smiled kindly at Will but she saw his attention other places.

"Will! It's good to see you!" Charlotte turned around when she heard her cousin's voice and her face fell.

'Elizabeth looks stunning her dress.' Charlotte thought to herself and she plastered on a smile and agreed with her uncle.

Charlotte turned her head slightly and when she saw the look on Will's face her fake smile fell. She turned away from him quickly and she cleared her throat and composed herself.

"Excuse me." She said politely before she walked out of the front door to the carriage that was waiting for them. Charlotte quickly got in and she made herself comfortable all while trying to forget the look on Will's face.

'He is in love with her. He is completely in love with her.' Charlotte thought harshly and she looked out the window. She tried to ignore the horrible feeling that come over her and the horrible pain she felt in her heart.

'Stop this Charlotte! Stop this right now! You wouldn't have been able to have him anyway!' Charlotte scolded herself angrily.

"Charlotte? Are you alright my dear?" Charlotte opened her eyes and stared at her uncle who had a look of concern written on his face.

Will stood in his place for a couple moments staring at the place where Elizabeth had once stood. He could not believe how beautiful she had become. She had changed from the little girl he once knew to a young woman.

'A beautiful, young woman.' Will thought to himself as he continued to stare at the same spot.

William finally tore his eyes from the spot and he tried to tear his thoughts away from Elizabeth but he found that hard to do.

'She is incredibly beautiful.' Will smiled at his thoughts before he shook his head. He needed to get back to the blacksmith's shop and finish the work he still had.

Will opened the door to the Swan mansion and went to walk out the door only to find someone had bumped into him.

"Miss Swan...I thought you were going with the Governor and Elizabeth?" Charlotte looked up when she saw Will talking to her. She gave him a look before she pushed past him and started walking towards the stairs.

She made her up the stairs and into her room before she let a gasp escape her lips. She quickly started pulling at the strings of her dress trying to get it off.

"Miss Swan! Miss let me help you!" Charlotte heard her maid from behind her and she felt her hands being pushed away.

Charlotte put her hands on her stomach and tried to take in little breaths until the dress was undone. She was fine with the dress until they were just about to leave then she had shortness of breath.

"Miss the dress is undone." Charlotte took a deep breath and closed her eyes enjoying the feeling of her ribs being able to move again.

"Are you alright Miss?" Charlotte nodded and she dismissed her maid before she walked over to her bed. She lifted up the covers and slipped into her bed without fully changing.

'Irritating dress.' Charlotte muttered to herself before glaring at the dress lying in a heap on the floor.
