The Flying Dutchmen anchored by the Nightflyer and Will and Kiera made there way across the ship. "Kiera your alive" smiled Jack "and ye found yer father, hello whelp" he grinned drinking down the rum. "Hasn't changed since I last saw you" Will chuckled.

"Where's Mother?" I asked. The crew looked around, "were did the lass go she was just here?" Said Jack. "Father!" Shouted William. The two hugged out manly and quickly caught up. "Where's Elizabeth?" Will asked. "She must be down in her cabin" William suggested. "I'm going to go talk to her" he answered and walked down to Elizabeth's cabin.

...

I walked down the ship taken care of by my only son, William. I hadn't seen Elizabeth in almost ten years why hadn't she been on deck? I came across the cabin door and knocked gently. "Go away!" She cried. "Elizabeth? Love it's me, Will" he said into the door. I heard a quite gasp from inside. "I'm sorry Will I can't let you in" she murmured. "Why not? I want too see you" "because that's just it, I can't let you see me!" "Why can't I see you luv?" I heard her moaning from the inside, "because I'm old Will! I have aged, I'm a 50 something year old woman and you look just like you did the day we wedded! I'm not as pretty as I used to be.." She trailed off and I could hear her sobs from inside.

"Elizabeth I don't care. I love you I don't care what you look like I will always love you. You will always be beautiful to me because you are, Now luv please let me in?" I gave her a moment to think then I slowly opened the door to find her wrapped up in a blanket in her bed. Her tiny frame could be made out perfectly. "Elizabeth?" "Will" she cried. "Please come out from under the blanket" I begged.

"I can't" I hated to see her cry it broke my heart "please darling" she took a deep breathe and removed the blanket exposing just her back to me. I sat down on the bed and turned her head bringing her in for a gentle kiss I had been longing for for so long. "I love you" I whispered. "I love you too" "your as beautiful as the first time I met you and you always will be no matter how old we are" I reassured her "but Elizabeth I didn't fall in love with you because you were beautiful, it was so much more" she gave me a smile and I held on to her tightly. She Barred her face into my shoulder as I rubbed her back.

"I missed you" she whispered. "As did I" "will?" She asked. "Yes Elizabeth?" "What's going to happen if this doesn't work and I grow old and... And I die. What will you do then?" Her voice cracked as she finished. "Don't say that this will work and we will grow old together surrounded by grandchildren" I heard her chuckle. Elizabeth lifted her head up and closed her eyes as I kissed her. Soon I would be able todo that every chance I got. And it will work.
