Chapter 1
Nerves. That's all I felt when I woke up on the day of my wedding.
"Lily?" came my best friend's voice from the door
"Come in Elizabeth!" I answered as I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stood up.
Elizabeth walked through the door and patted her expanding waistline.
"Not long now" she said as she picked up my wedding dress and threw it to me
"No, how long have you got left?" I asked
"About three weeks" said Elizabeth. I put on the dress and instantly felt like a princess. I had my black hair curled and it was partly clipped up with gold hair clips, I had gold shoes to match my dress. I loved my dress; it was white with gold flowers stitched onto the body of it, the hem of the dress also had flowers stitched onto it. We had picked it up from Port Royal and we were now docked away from Commodore Norrington's view on the shores of Port Royal.
"And to think you had trouble getting pregnant in the first place, Elizabeth"
"I know, it's a blessing"
"It won't be when it's coming out"
We both laughed and set about getting me prepared for my wedding to Oliver.
"Are you decent?" came father's voice from outside my cabin.
"Yes, come in" I called. I straightened my dress out and grinned as father walked in.
"You look nice, luv" he simply said, he turned around to walk to the chair but bumped into Elizabeth's belly.
"You need to watch where you put your bump Lizzy" he said, he flashed her his trademark grin and walked around her to the chair.
"Dad!" I exclaimed.
"It's ok Lily, Jack needs to watch where he puts his big head, don't you Jack?" said Elizabeth playfully.
"My head is not big" said Dad; he put his hands to his head, as if to test it. I let out a laugh, Dad glared at me.
"If I have to watch my head, Lily has to watch her bum" he said. I opened my mouth wide in shock and walked over to him.
"Evidently her mouth as well" he said before I slapped him on the arm.
"I do not have a big mouth…or a big bum" I said, I moved my head over my shoulder so I could see if it really was big, my dress was too big for me to see though.
"See, you even have doubts about it" said Dad as he saw me looking.
"Right enough, is everyone ready Jack?" Asked Elizabeth, I just noticed that she was in her bridesmaid dress; we had to get it specially made for her bump.
"Yes, go and round 'em all up, keep 'em away from the rum" replied Dad
"Right" said Elizabeth as she went out to get everyone in place.
"Nervous?" asked Dad
"Just a bit" I replied, I was nervous, more than a bit but I was a Sparrow, Sparrow's aren't meant to show signs of fear or nervousness.
"Liar" Dad stated.
"How could you tell?" I asked, stunned that he knew.
"You're my daughter" he replied.
"Oh" I said, Dad stood up and led me to the door.
"If Oliver treats you wrong in any way, you leave him quicker than the blink of an eye, got it?" he said. I didn't answer him; I knew it was too much to ask for him to ditch the overprotective attitude towards me.
"Lily?" he said sternly
"Right" I said
"I mean it" Dad whispered in my ear as we walked out of the door and onto the deck.
The deck had been decorated to some extend, Elizabeth and Anamaria had placed flowers here and there and some white ribbon was wrapped around the helm.
"Here we go" I whispered as I made my way to the helm where Oliver was stood waiting for me with Sam as his best man.
"You look beautiful" he said to me as I got to him.
