The moon was high in the sky and the ocean was calm. It was a quiet night in Port Royal, like the silence after the storm. The light breeze cooled of the land from the heat of day. Every one was safe in their homes. There was only one place were the whole household was up.

Abi stood in the doorway of one of the guest bedrooms in Norrington's home. She watched as the surgeon wash the blood from her father's wound and then stitched him up. The laudanum they had given him to relax kicked in right away and he quickly fell asleep when they fixed up his wound.

Will walked over to Abi and wrapped his arms around her waist and looked into to the room as well. The surgeon was finished his work and was cleaning up his mess. "You should get him to look at your shoulder and leg!" he whispered into her ear. Abi remained silent. "Will you do it for me?" He asked. Then she slowly nodded her head.

They moved out of the way when the surgeon walked by. Will kissed Abi's cheek then went after the surgeon to ask him if he would look at Abi.

Abi looked back and Will talking to the man. Then he looked back at Jack and slowly walked to his bedside. She knelt down and held his hand; she then brought it up to her lips and kissed it. She looked at his relaxed face and smiled. She looked up and saw Will motioning her to come. She stood up and pulled the blanket up to Jack's chest. She kissed him on the forehead and then left the room closing the door.

Abi sat on her bed and pull down her top so the surgeon could look at her wound. He took a cold cloth and wiped up the dry blood. There was yellow puss all around the wound. "Miss Sparrow, your wound is infected. I bet your leg is the same. What has to be done is to take up the bullets and keep your wound clean. If we don't do this the infection may spread and you won't be able to use your arm or you leg." Abi looked over her should at her wound. "Lets do it then."

Abi took all her clothes and laid on her stomach on the bed. The surgeon put a sheet of her bum and then started on his work. He gave her some laudanum, as well so she wouldn't feel the pain.

Late the next morning, Abi slowly woke up to the chirping of birds outside her room. She slowly got up and walked over to the balcony. He realized that she had a white night gown on. She knew the maids must have put it on after the surgeon was done.

She walked out onto the balcony and was greeted by the sunlight. She breathed in the fresh air and held on to the railing.

"Can I join you?" Abi turned around and saw Jack at the doorway to the balcony. "Of course you can!" she smiled. Jack walked up to her and gave her a loving embrace. Then they both winced in pain from their wounds. "We are both a mess?" Jack said with a slight laugh. Abi nodded her head "Yes, yes are." Jack laughed that turned to a quiet yell in agony as he held his side.

Abi looked at him "Were you really going to give up the Pearl?" Jack shook his head "No." Abi looked away "Oh." Jack put his hand on her good shoulder "But I would if I had to. Because you are more important than any ship." Abi smiled at her father and blushed a little. Then Jack wrapped his arm around her, holding her gently.

"Excuse me!" Jack and Abi turned around and faced James. Jack looked at Abi "There is really no privacy around here, is there?" Abi shook her head. Then their attention was on James "Mr. Sparrow! I talked to Governor Swan, thou he is no pleased, he will let you stay here until you recover. Your crew is welcome to stay if they don't cause trouble." James looked at Abi "Once you are healed, the two of you can leave with your ship." Abi smiled at him and gave him a hug, excitingly "I don't have to stay?" she asked. James shook his head "But if you want to you welcome to stay with me." Abi shook her head "You know I won't stay." James just laughed. Jack then shacked that man's hand "Thank you James."

Soon after James left Will entered the room. Jack shook his head at Abi "I have more privacy on the Pearl." Then he laughed slightly "I'm going to see the crew. I will see you at lunch." He said giving her another embrace. Then he smiled at Will as he left.

Will walked onto the balcony and took Abi's hand in his own and smiled at her. "I love you Abi. I've loved you ever since we were little." Abi smiled then kiss him on thee lips "I love you too." Abi then rested her head on his shoulders "What did you tell Elizabeth?" Will scratched the side of his nose "Not yet." Abi pushed him back a bit and she looked at him "You are going to have to tell her Will, I mean you two are engaged." Will nodded his head "Yeah, I know. I will tell her. Today." Abi smiled and rested her head on his shoulder again. "Good." She said slightly sad because she was very fond of Elizabeth and she probably wouldn't talk to her after Will tells her off.

"Gibbs!" Jack shouted cheerfully as he walked on to deck to see his first mate. "Cap'n. How you be feeling?" Gibbs said after he turned to face Jack. "Better then yesterday." He patted his friend on the back. "Will we be sailing Cap'n?" the older man asked. Jack shook and nodded his head at the same time "Yes and no." Gibbs was confused. "I want you to take the Pearl and go wherever you want and in three weeks come and pick Abi and I up." Gibbs looked at Jack in a 'are you sure' way. "You're not comin' with us." Jack shook his head "Nah, I need a little vacation. Plus, Norrington said I have to heal before leaving. He says your welcome to stay but I don't want to risk the crew being stupid and getting themselves hanged." Gibbs nodded his head finally understanding, "Ah. Well, we will be off then. See you in a while Cap'n." Gibbs turned around and went back to the ship with some of the members. The rest were waiting on the ship.

Jack stood there watching them leave with his ship. He was sad but he figured that it was all right because he wasn't stranded on some deserted island. Then he turned around and walked back to the Commodore's home.

"Miss Elizabeth, Mr. Turner is here to see you." Said the maid to the girl while she was behind the screen dressing. " Thank you, Anne. I will be right down."

Once Elizabeth was finished dressing, she walked down stairs and was greeted by Will. "Will, I'm so glad to see that you are safe." Then she gave him a kiss on the lips. Will smiled slightly at her "Elizabeth. I need to talk to you." Elizabeth nodded her head "You can tell me anything." Then she took his hand and led him to the living room. They sat down on the couch.

Will remained in silence for some time not looking up at Elizabeth. "Will, is something wrong? It can't be that hard to say." She asked. Will finally looked up at her; "Elizabeth, we can't not be." Elizabeth looked at him confused. "I am in love with someone else." Elizabeth closed her eyes to stop the tears. "Abigail." Will was surprised to hear her say that "How…" Elizabeth looked at him "I could see it in your eyes and in hers, they way you look at each other. They talked about her all time when you found out she was still alive. I was hoping that is was a phase that was going to disappear, but I guess that was a fools hope." Will took her hand and lifted it up to his mouth and kissed it "You will always be part of my heart, Elizabeth." She gave him a weak smiled and she kissed him on the cheek. Will then dried one of her falling tears. "Abi will be waiting for you." Elizabeth said standing up. Will did the same and nodded his head "Good day Miss Swan." Then he turned around and left the house.
