Summary-
"The world has been unkind to you," Her voice carving through his ears, "Those before you were mere warnings of what to come." She smiled, lifting her majestic hand, the rings on her fingers stood out.
Diamonds on one, and an alien crystal sat upon the second. He gazed upon her blackened body; there in the midst of her clothing was a locket, similar to one he'd seen before. Though there were many question he wished to be answered he asked thou none.
He stood up and pushed his chair from him, "Your Journey has just begun young William." She coaxed her hands onto his coarse facade, caressing his cheek.
"This be one of many." Her hands descending down to his opened shirt, "thou love be what you once sought. Hate is what you now seek."
There had been many times in the life of William Turner that he felt terribly wrong about something. Anything. But this time, the feeling of being wrong was beginning to consume him; he wanted to listen to her when she wanted to speak with him. But his pride wouldn't allow it, she had betrayed him, but he only thought of himself. Earlier that day, Will had tried to image what it must feel like for her. How she must feel at the moment. He than realized that he was causing more pain to her than she caused him. He wanted to say that he was sorry, though he knew it would be a tough road for them. He had many regrets, one of which was hurting Elizabeth Swann.
"Elizabeth." Will said as she walked passed him, "Elizabeth, could we speak in a more private place. I've got to talk to you. It's important."
Elizabeth Swan spun on her heel, "What?" She growled. "You want to tell me how wrong I was, hmm? Tell me how foolish I was to fake that I love you?" Elizabeth stared icily into his eyes.
"No, its something that I know I will not regret." He sat down. Beckoning that Elizabeth do the same, "I know that saying this will mean that there is a lot to consider, so I'll just say it fast and we can let what happens happen. Sound good?" He swallowed.
"Sounds fine," Elizabeth said slowly.
"Alright," Will said, he cleared his throat, "I know that I have been treating you horribly, just because of a kiss. A kiss, a simple kiss, but it just pissed me off that I had risked so much for you. And I thought you were throwing that all away. I paid no attention to your pleas to talk about it, and just carried on believing what I thought was the real thing. Elizabeth, I want to know what really happened, everything of it."
Elizabeth smiled in a weird kind of a way, "I knew this would come, where either one of us would want to talk about it. Well, Jack Sparrow had left the ship and come back and saved us all for a moment, he told us all to abandon ship. And I knew that if he went, it would mean certain death to us all. Will I couldn't let that happen to you, so I did what I thought was best. I used my female wit to distract Jack Sparrow so that I could chain him to the mast." Tears began to form in her eyes.
"I kissed Jack for you, so that I could get him onto the ship while we leave, I killed Jack so you and I could be together. But you saw, and I never had the chance to explain, and over time it kept building up. And you thought I was in love with Jack, which I am not, and hate began to take over your everything. You were not the Will Turner that I knew and loved."
Will sighed, "I'm so sorry," He whispered with his head down, "I had it completely wrong, I can't believe what I thought now. Could you ever forgive me? After all that I've done? The pain of brought onto you?"
Elizabeth sighed, "Will I can forgive you. But I don't know how the trust we had will ever build itself so strong. All the things you and I worked so hard for, are gone, but not for good. If we just work together on things like this, trust each other. Than we might have something together someday. But as for now. There isn't much I can say."
Will cleared his throat, "Only time will tell, huh?"
"Yeah, we just have to wait and see." Elizabeth said.
"So its over, us, we are over?" Will asked.
"For now." Elizabeth replied as a tear fell from her eye.
"Alright, friends?" He asked extending his hand.
"Friends," Elizabeth agreed, the two hugged quickly and resumed their work.
