Will suddenly spoke up and said, "Jack listen to me, I wanted to ask you about your true feelings for Elizabeth. I know what went on in the past between the two of you, but I wanted to know what your thoughts are."

"Huh?" Jack asked as he scrunched up his face into a confused look. He had expected Will to ask him about the promise he made Davy Jones, so he wasn't expecting this question at all.

"Elizabeth and I had a long talk last night, and we decided that you could stay for the time being, as long as you abide by these rules. First of all, you will do what ever is asked of you and obey Elizabeth, myself, and Ana as long as you stay in this house. Secondly, you may not leave this house unless either myself or Elizabeth accompany you and you must be incognito (in disguise). Lastly, you may not flirt with either Elizabeth or my daughter since I know you will try. As long as you follow these rules, you may stay for a while. Do we have an accord?" Will asked Jack, daring him to say no.

Jack paused for a moment before answering, "The only way that I would abide by these rules is if you agree to come with me someplace at the end of this month. And if you must know, I have no feelings for Elizabeth ever since she chained me to the Pearl and left me to die. I cannot believe that I am saying this, but I will honor your rules William."

"Alright Jack, now that that is settled, here is your breakfast. Oh Jack, and if you break your promise then I will turn you into the government. You know that they have been searching for you ever since Cutler Beckett died. They think that it was your doing and I just wanted to warn you." Will said as he got up to leave the room, but before he did Jack called his name.

"Thanks mate; you have no idea how much that means to me. But why are you doing this all for me? After all, it was my fault that you were almost hung and I'm grateful that you would forget all of that and help me. I am truly thankful mate, and I promise to obey your rules." Jack said looking surprised at himself, as if he never thanked someone before.

"Well Jack, if you never showed up at Port Royal in the first place, then I would have missed out on so many things. After all, it was you that made me realize how much I loved Elizabeth and how bored I was with my life. You gave me an adventure and the courage to do many things I never would have done. I should be the one thanking you!" Will stated quickly and walked out of the room leaving Jack looking bewildered.

Jack sat down on the bed, staring at the doorway and Will's retreating figure. "Wow, that was unexpected!" he whispered to no one in particular as he started to eat his breakfast. As he was eating, he kept thinking about the job he was sent here to do and why he suddenly felt that he couldn't bring himself to do it. He never experienced this feeling before in his life, and it was bringing him to realize many things. This feeling was friendship.
