Chapter 14

Sitting on the child's bed, noticing how small it was compared to the size of himself, Jack had Charlie sit next to him. He wrapped his arm around the child, pulling him into a hug. Charlie started sniffing.

"It's not my fault!" Charlie sobbed. Jack nodded, that's what they all say, he thought. But Jack had to hear Charle's feelings as well too.

"Lad, I heard from ye'r daddy that yee said yye wanted to kill yerself, why?" Jack asked.

"So I don't have to be with Daddy! He hates me!" Charlie cried. In Charlie's mind, he thought Will hated him. Ever since he was found in Tortuga. Charlie thought that Will hated him, that he stopped loving him. So in his heart, he felt he had to be rebelious. And Deny his father's "lies" of hearing his Daddy say that he loved him.

"Charlie ye'r da' does not hate you. In fact, he loves you, very much" Jack said. Charlie looked up at his Papa. To Charlie, his Papa was everything. He scared away the "monsters" under his bed, he sailed the whole world. In his mind, his Papa was king of the seas.

"And he thinks ye, hate him." Jack said.

Charlie looked dumbfounded. "No, I love Daddy"

"Then why did ye' say all those nasty words?" Jack asked. He actually knew why Charlie might of said harmful words to Will. He just wanted to her his son's reactions.

"Becuase, I thought he hated me." Charlie said.

"Well, ye'r wrong. He loves you." Jack said. "Very much."

Charlie looked to the ground. Suddenly he felt a knot in his tummy. He wanted to got to the man who loved him all his life (well, his four years of living) and apologize. Charlie looked at Jack. Then opened his mouth to ask his Papa a question.

"Is Daddy in the family room still?" He asked.

Jack nodded. Letting the Lad go to run to his Daddy. Jack smiled.

"Parenting isn't dat hard." He smiled. Charlie ran as fast as he could to the family room. Josh was finished with his supper, passing Josh, Charlie walked into the room. He stopped when he saw his Daddy, head in his hands, his face was covered, but Charlie could tell his was crying. Will removed his hands and looked at Charlie, he smiled a hopeful smile. Making Charlie walk slowly over to his Daddy.

"I'm sorry." Charlie chocked out.

Will smiled, tears still running down his face, but he held his arms open and the child took the chance. Jumping into his daddy's loving arms made Charlie's heart swoun with joy. He knew right then and there, his daddy would forever love him. He felt stupid for dobting his love for him.

"I love you, daddy." Charlie said.

"I love you more." Will smiled. Closing his eyes, hoping this wasn't a dream.

Sometimes, reality is nice.

Charlie sniffed the air. "Daddy? Is somthing burning?" He asked.

"Oh! Bloody hell!" Will yelled, quickly jumping to the stove where somthing was on fire.

Well, most of the time.

"'Ere it is, mate. The Savage Island" It took Jack a while but with his compass he found the right island. And thank goodness to, the last island they tried to search on was full of snakes, the other filled with dead people. (in which none of the islands Charlie was allowed to search upon).

But this island looked decent, it was small, had a few palm trees, a white sandy beach, almost looks like the one Jack was marroned on by Barbosa so long ago, but it was fairly larger. Charlie and Josh were amazed, this would be the first time they saw a real pirate plundering and whatnot.

"What are we looking for?" Will asked, putting his hand on Charlie's shoulder.

"A gem." Jack smiled. Will was slightly confused. Only one gem? No chest full or abandoned ship full of gems? Just one? What Will couldn't help but wonder was, if they were looking for only ONE gem, what was so..."powerful"...about this one gem that made Jack only want one?

Charlie started putting on his boots and a coat, he started running off the ship with everyone but that caught Will's attention. He swouped Charlie into his arms, snuggling him and planting kisses on his cheeks and forehead.

"What are you doing?" Will asked, smiling.

"I'm going too! I'm a pirate" Charlie pointed out.

"No, Baby, you're to stay here on ths ship, I don't want anything happening to you. If somthing were to, I'd never forgive myself." Will said. Charlie sighed, then sat on the steps. Frowing and staring at his shoes. Will patted his head and promised he'd be able to "Pirate", when he was older.

Will climbed into the row boat with some others, waving back to Charlie.

Charlie sighed. Realizing without a overprotective father to worry on board there was nothing to do.

Looking at his compass, Jack realized the crew had to start walking west. They started to follow Jack. Will still hadn't the slightest clue as to why Jack had lead them on this quest. He was even more baffled as to why Jack only wanted ONE item. So why was this Gem so 'neediful'? He wondered.

Will thought about that, while Jack, on the other hand, started thinking of how to get Charlie off the Pearl so he could have some lovey-dovey time with Will.

It felt like hours when they reached their destination. Jack smiled and took a sip of rum. "'Ere ye are!" He smiled. Everyone was baffled. It seemed only Gibbs had the courage to speak up.

"Captin? There's nothing here." That was true, they were still surounded by the wide planes and sand they've walked on for hours. Will, still baffled, agreed.

"Jack, there's nothing here. Are you sure we're at the right destination?"

"Of course, luv!" Jack yelled. "Like I promised ye,"

Will was still confused. He noticed Jack started picking up little rocks, looking under them, only he found yellow or silver gems. He announced for everyone to find a saphire gem and if they did to bring it to him. They started, but slowly. Jack groaned, they'd never find the gem at this rate, moving like snails and all. So, Jack promised the crew member to find the gem to have his finest rum. Stoping everyone smiled, as to work faster. That's what everyone did. They searched for hours. Looking under rocks, digging up dirt, but they found nothing. Or so they thought. For a crew member did dig up the gem, he just didn't notice it. The Gem was thrown in the air along with some dirt. The gem, however, traveled further than the dirt, it landed on a crew member's head who winced in pain, bouncing off the head, the gem landed in Jack's broken rum bottle. Jack, (who was taking a break,) leaped up in surprise. He looked in hisbottle and smiled.

"And they say rum's bad." He smiled. "I got it!"

Everyone groaned, Jack would get the rum. Again.

Wrapping the gem along a strand of the silver crystals, Jack placed the now-gemstoned necklace around Will's neck as they hopped and were in the row boats heading to the Pearl.

Will looked down in surprise and smiled at Jack.

"Is this why you dragged the crew out?" Will asked, "for a gift to me?"

"Aye, not only that but, this 'ere gem. Has powers, Luv." Jack smiled. "That's why they call it names."

"Names?" Will asked.

"Like, um...too many to name" Jack smiled. In reality he didn't know all of them. Will didn't care, he smiled at the gem. It was so beautiful, shining in the moonlight along with the other silver and gold crystals they gathered. The saphire gem was in the middle of the necklace, while the others were scatted around. It was beautiful. broguht out Will's wide brown eyes too.

Charlie was fast asleep in his large bed, Josh by his side, the two had just gotton done with playing five hours of pirates and were exausted. Will smiled, tucking his child and Josh under the covers. He felt so blessed at the moment. Planting a soft kiss on Charlie's forhead he wished him goodnight and left the room. Closing the door, he was immedatley attacked by Jack's lips.

"Jack." Will smiled. Giving into the lucsy kisses being planted on his neck.

"Don't speak, luv. Just moan..." Jack replied.

That's what Will did, all night too.
