A/N: This ones a lot shorter and quite a lot further in the future than lust was. I'm not sure if I like the ending...Hope you enjoy:)

Disclaimer: Nope don't own them. Only borrow them for my own pleasure.


"for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags" (Proverbs 23:21).

"Gluttonous pigs." Elizabeth muttered, staring at the crew as they lay passed out on the sand near a large bonfire. "Leave them alone for one moment and they consume all of the rum we have, next they'll be left with nothing to their names."

"Darling!" Jack cried out, sauntering towards her from seemingly out of nowhere. "I thought you'd never be done mendin' that dress."

"You've drunk all the rum." She spat in return. "And if you hadn't gotten into trouble, we'd be sleeping in a real bed after a real bath instead of out guzzling that vile drink and passing out in the sand."

"It's not my fault the fairer sex finds me unbearably attractive and their men take a dislike to you. You're the one that threatened her, darling." He replied, making her roll her eyes.

"I'm certain if he knew of my gender, he wouldn't have been angry and besides, she was infringing on my territory. I wasn't about to stand aside and allow that."

"Is that what I am? Your territory?"

She smirked (never really angry with him to begin with) and moved closer, intoxicated by the way his eyes shined in the firelight, bringing back fond memories of another night on a similar island. "You know exactly what you are, Jack."

"A gluttonous pig." He replied, wrapping her into a tight embrace.

She raised an eyebrow questioningly. "Dear captain, please elaborate."

"My men are gluttonous pigs because they are subject to drinking excessive amounts of that liquor which you once called vile, but now find appealing…at least when it's on me."

A bright flush colored her cheeks. "Indeed, but why are you a gluttonous pig?"

"Me? I'm merely subject to excessive amounts of my edible…" He ran his hands down her sides, planting kisses on her jaw as he talked.

"Delicious…" He nibbled at her lower lip making her eyelids lower.

"Beautiful…" His fingers came up to caress her face softly.

"Future wife...if she'll marry a dreadful blackguard like me?"

Her eyes flashed open. "Jack…are you…?"

His smile was honest. "Aye. I am."

"A thousand times yes!" She exclaimed without hesitation, kissing him in earnest and leading him back to the ship to drink excessive amounts of the Port he kept in his cabin and perhaps commit a few other sins while they were at it.


A/N: Hope you enjoyed this. The proposal was a bit unexpected, aye? lol. Chapter 3 will be: Greed.
