And finally as he leaned in to kiss her…

Will awoke with a start, banging his head on the low, slanted ceiling above his head. His dream came flooding back into memory. He would lean in to kiss the love of his life, Elizabeth Swann and then he would awake, wondering if he was ever going to see her again. He hadn't seen Elizabeth since they confessed their love for each other, the day Will had rescued Jack from hanging and it had been a month. Will flung of the thin sheets that were covering him and dressed quickly into the clothes he had laid out the day before. He had to start working on the many orders that had piled up while he was gone. Will sighed loudly. He was having a bad day.

Elizabeth wasn't exactly doing any better. Her father had nearly placed her under house arrest ever since she had kissed the town blacksmith. Governor Swann had been desperately trying to find his daughter a "smart match" which meant almost never letting the young woman out of his site and sending her off to as many balls as she was invited to.

Elizabeth lay in her bed, fiddling with the silver necklace she wore around her neck that her father had bought to replace the pirate medallion she had worn for eight years. It was dreadfully hot in her room and Elizabeth hadn't bothered getting dressed. Her father was out on a walk and she was alone it he house except for the servants that had jobs to do. Elizabeth flung off the thin sheets that covered her and dressed as hastily as she could manage in a thin linen gown she had stolen from one of the maids. She slipped her slender feet into her plainest shoes and tied her hair up in a simple cap. She was going to the blacksmith's shop to see the man she hadn't seen in too long.

Will had given up on one order and moved on to the next. The heat in the shop was unbearable and the young man had planned to close down for the day and go into the woods to freshen up at the spring he had discovered. He was about to put out the closed sign when the door opened and in walked a small, delicate looking woman wearing a simple blue dress. She pulled off her cap, revealing her face, her long blond hair tumbling down her shoulders. "Elizabeth," Will gasped, taking a step backwards. "Will," Elizabeth replied, "I am so glad to see you!" "As am I," Will said, smiling and walking a few steps closer to Elizabeth.Then he stopped, "Does you father know you're here?" "Does he need to know?" Elizabeth replied in an annoyed manner. "You stop calling me Miss Swann and now you are interested in whether my father knows exactly what I'm doing," she went on, "Of course my father doesn't know I'm here. He certainly wouldn't allow me here in the first place. Now I plan on enjoying myself while I'm here and not even you, Mr.turner, can stop me!" "I wouldn't dare, Miss Swann," Will said teasingly. He laughed when Elizabeth scowled and hit his arm."How many times must I ask you to call me Elizabeth?" "That was the last time," Will said, "Elizabeth." Will brushed a strand of hair away from Elizabeth's face. Then he bent down and kissed her softly on the lips. This kiss didn't last more than two seconds but Elizabeth felt the hair on the back of her neck stand up. "Oh Will," she said hugging him, "I don't want to have to leave." "And I don't want you to have to go," Will said, pulling away, "I'm sorry, Elizabeth."

OK, that was the first chapter. PLeeeeeeze review. Willbeth forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
