Two Months Later

Jack walked into his cabin, it was late, and he had only just finished his shift at the wheele.

He opened the door, and found Lizzie sitting at the desk, and he smiled as he went to stand behind her, looking over her shoulder, to see what she was writting.

He leaned down, and looked at the paper infront of her "Yer writtin' ta Gracie?"

Elizabeth nodded "Yes, she wrote me, and I'm responding. Her letter is over there, if you want to read it."

Jack looked to the table in the corner, where Elizabeth was pointing, and saw a folded peice of parchment, laying on top.

Picking it up, and unfolding it, he read over what his sister had to say.

Elizabeth watched out of the corner of her eye, as Jack read the letter. Grace had talked of a few things Elizabeth knew would surprise Jack.

She smiled when she saw his brows raise, and he smirked, just reading the first line.

Dear Elizabeth...

I told you that the two of you loved one another, did I not?

I wasn't at all surprised, when news reached me, that the great Captain Jack Sparrow, had finely met his match.

I knew from the moment I met the two of you, that you were destined to be together, it just took a little while longer for the two of you to see it also.

Now on to bigger things, when shall you become Mrs. Sparrow? I love weddings, and I do hope I'm invited.

I have the dress my mother wore, when she married, I think it would fit you nicely, just let me kow if I should clean it for you any time soon.

And Jack (I assume you will be reading this also) I'm only joking, don't worry, there has been no talk of a marriage of any kind, I only say these things, to get at you, after the way your eyes bolged at the mention of a family while you were here.

I do wish you both the greatest form of happiness, you both deserve it.

All my love,

Gracie..

After finishing the letter, Jack folded it up, and laid it back on the table, uttering only a lite "Huh." Then he leaned down, and kissed Elizabeths cheek, and was on his way to bed, only stopping long enough to say "Don't be to long love, it's late." Then he left the room, leaving behind a confused Lizzie.

...

The next morning, Elizabeth was sitting on an over turned crate, with Jackie beside her, and they were having a spelling lesson, Elizabeth had taken to teaching Jackie the best she could on the ship, so she would have some kind of knowledge, when Jack found her.

She noticed, as he walked torwards them, Jackie smiled, and Jack answered it, with a wink.

Elizabeth looked between them, knowing it was never a good thing, when the two of them were in on something, and keeping it from her.

"Lizzie?"

Elizabeth turned her attention to Jack, and smiled "Yes Jack?"

"I need ta be talkin' with ya love."

"Alright."

Jack shook his head "Not 'ere" He pointed up "Up there."

Elizabeth looked upward, and saw he was pointing to the crows nest.

"Alright Jack. We'll finish this later Jaquelin."

Jackie only nodded, and smiled once more at Jack.

As they walked across the deck, torwards the rope ladder that would take them to the crows nest, Elizabeth thought how different Jack was, when it was only the two of them.

He would never let his crew see, or anyone else for that matter, but when it was just the two of them, he was the most warm and affectionate man she could ever ask for.

Even with Jaquelin, he was great with her, she went everywhere with him, and he always seemed happy to have her, he was affectionate and loving with her, just as if she were his own.

But the moment he steped onto the deck, everyone knew who was Captain, and that you did not take his orders lightly.

She smiled, knowing that no one, could ever find another like Jack Sparrow.

...

Jack held her hand, as he helped her into the crows nest.

When her feet were safely on the floor, he let go, and she smiled.

"What did you need to tell me, that we had to come up here for?"

But instead of saying a word, Jack placed a hand on each side of her face, and leaned forward, and kissed her.

It was a kiss full of passion, and love, and just plan and simple happiness, but the best part of that kiss, was when she felt him smile.

And when he pulled back, she smiled "I love it, when in the middle of our kiss, I can feel you smile."

Jack smirked "I have ta smile love, 'cause I have somethin' most pirate search their 'ole lives for."

Elizabeth smiled "What?"

Jack placed a hand on each of her shoulders, and smiled "The perfect treasure."

Elizabeth laughed "I'm not perfect Jack."

Jack shook his head "To me you're perfect."

Elizabeth smiled, and shook her head "Alright, what did you have to say?"

Jack held out his hands, palms down, fingers spread "Pick one."

Elizabeth looked down at his hands, then back to his face. "Pick one what?"

"Ring, which one do ya like the best?"

Elizabeth frowned slightly, but looked back to his hands, and that's when she saw a ring that he had never worn before.

It was simple, to simple for Jack, and silver, with a small blue jewle in the middle.

Elizabeth smiled and pointed "That one, it's beautiful, where did you get it?"

Jack slid it off his finger, and held it up "I've 'ad it for awhile, it was me mums, and I want you to have it now."

Eizabeth looked surprised "You want me to have it? But why?"

Jack looked at her, with a slight smirk, and a shake of his head.

"Because, I'm going to marry you, so, plan your life accordingly."

Elizabeth, who had been studying the ring, looked up to meet his eyes, not sure if she had heard him right "You're going to what?"

"Marry you."

He looked so calm, like he had only told her they were going to make port, not that he was going to marry her.

"Jack, if this is about Graces letter, I don't expect anything you know? You don't have to do this."

Jack frowned "This isn't about that letter, I've been plain' this for awhile now, but if you don't want to Lizzie, it's alright."

He reached for the ring, to take it from her hand, but she closed her fingers around it.

"No. I mean, yes I do want to, I just didn't want you to do something you didn't want to do."

Jack smirked "Alright, if we have that settled." And he reached for the ring once more, and looked into her eyes "Lizzie, will you marry me?"

Elizabeth smiled and nodded "Yes, I will."

And with that, Jack slid the ring onto her finger, and kissed her.

...

Jackie and Gibbs were both waiting for them to come down, and when their feet hit the deck, and Elizabeth was smiling, Jackie ran up to her with a smile of her own, as Gibbs gave Jack a hand shake.

Jackie grabbed Elizabeths hand "Did you say yes?"

Elizabeth looked at her "You knew?"

Jackie smiled sheepishly, and nodded "Yes."

Elizabeth turned to Jack, who was smirking "Had ta make sure it was alright."

Jackie beamed "I told him, yes it was."

Elizabeth looked between the two of them, and couldn't stop the smile that spread across her face, even if she had tried.

Everything was perfect, she had a wonderful family and home, and in just a few months timd, she would see her dear friend once more.

Life, was great.
