Ok, I saw 'Pirates of the Caribbean' and may I say, it is one of the best
movies I have ever seen! Being me, I got all inspired and decided to write
a fic.
Disc: If I OWNED 'Pirates of the Caribbean', d' ya really think I'd be daydreaming about Orli and Johnny and writing pretend fiction for little or no profit?? No, if you're looking for the owners, Disney's over there *points somewhere to her left*

Elizabeth Swann stood out on her balcony, reaching out for her boyfriend Will's hand. She pulled him onto the balcony with a grunt, his weight making her fall over. Will landed on top of her and gave her a long, lingering kiss.
"We- should- move this- to- the bedroom" Elizabeth said between kisses. "Some- oh—someone might see."
Reluctantly, Will broke the kiss. He knew Elizabeth was right. No sooner had she and Will gotten to the bed, however, than a knock sounded on the door.
"Miss Elizabeth? Commodore Norrington's here to see you."
Elizabeth sighed whilst Will scrambled to hide in the armoire. "Send him in."
The door opened and the commodore came in. "Elizabeth" he came toward her, hands outstretched.
"Hello, John" Elizabeth said with faintly disgusted look on her face. Norrington either didn't notice or chose to ignore it.
"Ready for the big day?" Norrington asked. In just one week, he would have everything he'd always desired. Money, fame, power, and a beautiful wife. So what if he didn't love her? She was beautiful, and she was rich.
'I'll never be ready for that horrible day' thought Elizabeth. Aloud, she forced a smile and said, "of course!" She had, after all, made a promise. And a Swann never broke a promise.
"I'm very tired" Elizabeth said abruptly. "I think I shall lie down for a while."
"Of course, darling" Norrington leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. Elizabeth shuddered inwardly, and Will felt pangs of envy. He may have Elizabeth's heart, but Norrington would soon have her hand. He couldn't bear the thought.

The week passed much too quickly for Elizabeth's taste. Before she knew it, it was the night before her wedding. Elizabeth and Will lay together in Will's bed, and Elizabeth was staring off into space.
"Will"
"What is it, sweetheart?" Will kissed Elizabeth's forehead gently.
"I can't do it. I can't marry Norrington."
Will looked at her sympathetically. She had made this horrible promise, just to save his life. Didn't she know that a life without her was not worth living at all? A sudden idea came to Will's mind.
"Elizabeth" Will clasped his hand in hers. "How would you feel about running away?"
"Running away? But where would we go? What would we do for money? How would we get there?"
"We could buy a small ship. How much money can you get your hands on- right now?"
"Weeeeelll" Elizabeth considered a moment. "The bulk of Father's money is kept in his bedroom safe, and I don't know the combination. But, he does have some money in his study, and I have my savings. I think there should be enough to last us a while, if the ship we get isn't very expensive. Let's do it! Let's get out of here!"
"Good. Go home, take only what you need. I'll meet you on your balcony in an hour." Will kissed Elizabeth's lips. "I love you, Elizabeth."
"I love you too, Will" and with that Elizabeth vanished out the door and out of sight.

An hour later, Will climbed up the trellis to Elizabeth's room as promised. Elizabeth met him on the balcony, dressed in breeches and a tunic. She tied her hair back and stuffed it under a cap, and she pronounced herself ready to go.
"Let's go" Will whispered. He threw Elizabeth's bag down, then carefully helped her down the trellis.
When the pair got to the bay, they set about finding a ship to purchase. Elizabeth had taken all her savings and the money in the safe in her father's study. She had also grabbed some jewelry to pawn, if necessary.
Will scanned the dark bay and the docks. The docks were mostly empty except for one crew loading up their ship, ready to leave at the crack of dawn. It was black as pitch out on the bay; the moonlight was covered by the clouds in the sky. Just then, the clouds shifted and a dark silhouette was visible on the water. It looked like a ship. A very familiar looking ship.
Will grabbed a telescope out of some random sailor's hand. He looked through it and grabbed Elizabeth's hand.
"Elizabeth! Look! It's the Black Pearl!"

That's all for now! Please R&R!
