Alright, Chapter 2. I will really try and try to update at least once a week, but with Xmas coming up I don't know whether I'll manage that. I'll promise I'll try though.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elizabeth watched Will as he walked off. Had she said something wrong? Or was he just tired from the fact they hadn't found Jack? She really hoped it was the latter.
She continued her search, but all she could see was black sand, and the occasional crab. It wasn't until much later that she saw a larger figure grumbling to itself in a rather frustrated voice.
Elizabeth smiled a little, as she had clearly heard something that sounded a little like 'rum', and she started to run towards it. It was definitely him, she could see him now. And hear him.
"Why is the rum always gone?"
She was sprinting towards him now, and, if he hadn't turned around and stepped out the way, Elizabeth would have surely collided with him.
"Jack! We've been looking all over for you!" she said, while trying not to smile. She was doing a very bad job of it. Before he could say anything, she grabbed him by the wrist and started to drag him towards the ship.
"Elizabeth. What about my ship?" Jack said, with a hint of annoyance.
She stopped. She hadn't thought about that.
"Well, we can always find it when I've taken you back to the others."
She smiled slightly, and let go of his wrist. She looked around.
She now realized that she had no way of finding her way back, and that she was definitely lost. And with Jack, of all people. If she hadn't of, well, I suppose you could say murdered him then they wouldn't be here. She wouldn't be having an awkward silence right now. And she wouldn't be feeling so guilty that she was afraid of saying anything.
"Miss Swann"
She looked up at Jack, and he gestured that she should go first. Elizabeth started to walk slowly in the direction he had pointed too. They walked in silence, until someone broke it.
"How's your Will coping with all this, love?"
She swallowed. It can't hurt to answer.
"Strangely. He seems to be a little cold to me now, and I have know idea why."
"I think you do"
She looked at him, and Jack had a smirk on his face.
"Look, I had to do it! Otherwise we'd all be in here with no one to save us" She had stopped now. "You're lucky I did that."
"I can't say it surprised me, love, but you do have a way of doing it so that it surprises other people." Jack was ahead of her now.
She had a look of confusion on her face, but followed him anyway.
"So, you're going to act like it never happened?"
"I think that's best, wouldn't want dear William to think anything, do we, love?"
She didn't have an answer to that, all she could see was the ship, and started to run to it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By the time she had reached the ship, almost everyone had left and they were on their own. She'd have to wait until they came back, she couldn't risk getting lost. Elizabeth climbed onto the deck and stared out over the black sand, when she felt someone tap her on the shoulder.
"Got any rum?"
She smiled, and nodded.
Elizabeth could hear him go below deck, when she saw a figure on the horizon. She didn't know how long she looked at it, but it can't have been long, as Jack had come up with several bottles of rum. Elizabeth stared at him incredulously, before staring at the figure again. It was Will.
She jumped down onto the sand and ran up to him, with a smile on her face. Will stopped and looked at her blankly, and the smile vanished.
"I found Jack. You'll find him on deck downing rum"
"Where was he?" will asked, rather stiffly.
"Oh, over there somewhere, quite far out."
He nodded, and got onboard, and Elizabeth followed. How long would this go on?
