Chapter 10:

Temptation

"About Jack"? Elizabeth was able to mutter out totally lost and confused. Her eyes now seemed wide and she needed to sit down…somewhere…anywhere. Elizabeth looked around her cabin, forgetting that there was a chair right in front of her. She slightly blushed once she realized the chair, and once she sat down dreadful thoughts started running through her mind.

'Did Will know of her and Jack…and what they had just done'? Just then a smile swept across Elizabeth's face as she remembered Jack's lips crashing down onto hers. She turned to look at Will, who was sitting in front of her on her bed. He had a surprised expression on his face, and it was probably because of the way Elizabeth was staring off into space, smiling like an idiot.

She cleared her throat, took her mind off Jack's hand caressing her back, and said to Will trying to sound as serious as possible "What about Jack"? Will looked blankly at her and the room went dead silent. Elizabeth bit her lip and she stared at Will for what it seems like ages. She was still waiting for his answer.

Elizabeth cleared her throat and attempted to make a joke to break the silence "Did he burn me rum"? Wills bottom lip curled into a tiny smile, but then he whispered to her "Captain, there is something you need to know about him…well, actually there are two things that you need to know about him".

Elizabeth nodded impatiently but then she got up and asked intolerantly "Do ye mind tellin' me another time…ugh how about…not now". Elizabeth then opened the door to her cabin and grabbed Will's arm and pushed him out the door while saying "It was nice seeing ye Will, be sure to take the time to write, even though I can't read, I trust ye eunuch…. well, sort of". Elizabeth paused for a second and then whispered "Actually I never was one to care much for eunuchs, never alone to trust them for that matter".

Will escaped Elizabeth's grasped, closed the door and once again sat down on the bed with a small smirk on his face. Will licked his lips and asked suspiciously "Why is it that you want me out of your room so fast"? Elizabeth gulped and then Will asked once again suspiciously "Or is it that you do not want to talk to me about Jack"? Elizabeth's mouth dropped, and she nodded profoundly at the wrong assumption Will had made.

Will then smiled and whispered, "Well, there is nothing to worry about Captain. Jack is…. well, actually…Jack is…missing". Elizabeth tried to hold her lips back from smiling, her eyes widened and she asked trying to sound oblivious "Missing? As in absent, as in lost, not here, gone astray, mislaid"? Will nodded and I looked at the closet for a second trying to control my facial expressions.

Will then continued "The crew and I looked all over the ship for him, but we can't find him anywhere. We believe he must have jumped ship…" Elizabeth nodded and the muttered while smiling "Interesting Mr. Turner. Well, Good bye". Will's eyes widened and he asked surprised "Don't you even care"? Elizabeth smiled and whispered, "Oh of course I do, but I be havin' other problems to worry about'.

Elizabeth walked to the door once more and opened it and Will shouted, "I am not finished yet"! Elizabeth slowly turned around and asked frustrated "What do ye want Turner"? Will clenched his hand into a fist and said sternly "That is my best mate you are talking about! I can't go on with my life, knowing that something could have happened to him"! Elizabeth rolled her eyes and exclaimed quite confidently "No worries, I'm sure he will turn up very soon…. well not too soon, but soon enough. I mean I've got to have enough time to do what I do best…."

Will looked at her puzzled and Elizabeth's eyes widened as she realized that she was getting carried away. So Will then whispered confused "Alright then, if you say so Captain". Will then grabbed her hand and led her to the bed to sit on it. Elizabeth obeyed as he began to speak "The other thing, Captain. Jack and his life…. there is something that you need to know".

Elizabeth sighed, looked over to the closet quickly and whispered, "Aye, tell me…quickly, preferably". Will nodded and then continued quite coddled "Jack Sparrow is a good man, everyone knows that, but you Captain…Miss…Swann…are a pirate". Elizabeth's eyes narrowed and she asked now very interested "Aye? What does that got to do with somethin' or another"? Will chuckled for a slight second then continued "Jack as mentioned before, is my best mate, and I don't want his heart broken…like before".

Elizabeth's eyebrows crossed as Will once again continued, "I won't get into that situation because well it's a very long, long story. But Captain, I could tell that well, Jack feels somethin, for you. I'm pretty sure that its infatuation, because well…" Will then laughed and continued "Jack Sparrow does not fall in love. Except for that one lass in Port Royal, Vanessa something, but no one could fill her shoes to Jack. But Jack has had too many girls after that, and before that…. during that….ugh…."

Elizabeth pouted and she asked angrily "Is there a point to this"? Will nodded and replied "Yes there is. I am just warning you, ugh…Captain. Jack falls hard when he falls; so don't get involved with Jack if you're just going to leave him for your precious Pearl. After all, you are a pirate and pirate's sail the seven seas and Jack doesn't. He prefers to have his feet planted firmly on the ground unless he is in battle".

Elizabeth cut in "With Pirates"? Will slowly nodded and got up and whispered while leaving the room "I had to warn you, I'm sorry for interrupting…. whatever it was that you were doing". With that statement Will left the cabin and went once more to look for Jack in places that he hadn't checked before.

Elizabeth looked at the closet and it slowly opened and Jack shouted out happily "Finally he left. I honestly thought I was in there for at least three days". Elizabeth's mouth slowly turned into a smile, a small smile, but a smile indeed. She gradually walked over to Jack, and he placed her arms around her in the form of a hug. He softly muttered, "Now, where were we"? Elizabeth looked at him in the eyes as Jack slowly leaned in closer to Elizabeth's lips and whispered seductively "Oh, I remember".

Jack then kissed the side of her lips, and slowly dragged his bottom lip across her mouth biting her top lip in the process. He then placed his lips on her neck and gently started kissing it. Elizabeth let out a tiny moan while whispering, "Jack…" Elizabeth heard Jack chuckle gently, and all of a sudden Elizabeth's eyes flew open. She took a step back from Jack and whispered, "I can't".

Jack's jaw dropped and he asked surprised "Excuse me"? He then walked over to her and kissed her as passionately as he could. Elizabeth couldn't help but respond to the kiss; Jack then pulled her tighter to him. Elizabeth shook her head and escaped from his grip once again and said, "Ye heard what Will said…. I can't". Jack licked his lips and whispered sadly "Oh…. I see. Well then, I guess I should leave. I mean the crew is worrying about me enough already".

Elizabeth nodded and whispered softly "Aye, I think ye should leave too. I'll walk ye to the door". But Elizabeth and Jack stood motionless, just staring at each other. Jack then asked her puzzled "Why aren't you moving"? Elizabeth snapped back "Well, I don't know! Why aren't ye"? Jack took a few steps towards Elizabeth and brushed his lips on hers for a second. He then wrapped his arms around her and asked doubtfully "Why does it bother you so much what William said"?

Elizabeth looked at Jack in the eyes innocently and responded "I…it does. I think its best we don't get involved with one another. I mean I am a pirate, and ye are…. ye know. The person that is supposed to kill pirates". Jack couldn't help but smile, so he asked bashfully "Since when did you start caring about things as mad as that"? Elizabeth shrugged and whispered back "Since when did ye feel attracted to me"?

Jack took a step back, because the question had surprised him. He then muttered, "Just because William says some absurd things, it doesn't mean that all of it was true"! Elizabeth coughed out sarcastically and asked impatiently "Oh really then, eh? Then ye bein' in love with some lass long ago be false"? Jack shook his head and replied baffled "Well, no but…" Elizabeth then interrupted him "Well, then I guess it must have been the part about me then, eh, matey"?

Jack shrugged his shoulders confused and asked, "What on earth are you talking about? Why would I want to kiss you, if I wasn't attracted to you"? Elizabeth rolled her eyes and shouted out "Oh please! All I am to ye is just another knot in yer belt"! Jack chuckled for a bit and he shouted out in disbelief "Me? Who is the one that made love to someone just so they could have somewhere to sleep for the night"?

Elizabeth's mouth dropped open in shock and then she grabbed the gun that Will had put back into her cabin. She then pointed it to Jack's head and he began chuckling. Jack then whispered confidently "You did this the last time, and we both know what happened after that". Elizabeth cocked the gun and slid it down the side of his face to his neck while shouting "Yer a scallywag Jack Sparrow"!

Jack smiled at her and muttered, "Well, I've meet you. And if you can't beat them, join them". Elizabeth bit her lip and then took a few paces backwards away from Jack. She then said softly "If ye say one more word….I will kill ye"! Jack chuckled and muttered out "One more word…. don't you have to kill me now"? Elizabeth nodded, and lowered the gun a bit.

Jack smiled and whispered tempting her "I know your not going to do it….you can't Because you're a good person". Elizabeth bit her lip hard, and her palms were sweating as Jack kept on tempting her. Jack then said loudly "Put the gun away, we both know your not going to do it". But then a shot was fired, and Jack dropped to the wooden floor in pain. He then managed to whisper out "You did it".
