"My place is here - between you and Jack".
Will thought back on those words he had spoken a few hours before. He hadn't honestly planned on following the pirate over the wall and into the ocean - it was as though he hadn't been in control of his own body, it was all instinct. Now here he was sitting on the deck of a ship bound for god knows where leaving the only life he'd known behind him as well as the only woman he'd ever loved.
"Well mate," a voice said from above him, "Figured you'd listen to your blood, just not so soon." Captain Jack Sparrow stood gazing down at the young blacksmith, "Not sure what your bonny lass is going to think of this." Will stood and looked toward the ocean, "Elizabeth's not mine anymore Jack. I sealed my fate when I joined this crew." "And who said anything about ye becoming part of my crew? You followed ME mate and not by invitation, savvy?" Jack grinned wickedly as a panicked look came across Will's face - one that looked remarkably like his fathers many year's ago upon hearing the same words. He threw his arm around the young man's shoulders, "We'll find something to do with you. Until then, stay close to Gibbs and he'll keep ye out of trouble."
Jack swaggered off towards the helm, thinking he had plenty of ideas of what to do with the blacksmith, but now was not the time.
