Chapter 2: Confronting Elizabeth, visitors

(A week later)

Elizabeth sighed as she woke up from a nice long sleep. She still couldn't believe that a week ago she had confessed her love to Will and still she has seen nor heard from her love since. She knew that no one was pleased with her decision to want to marry Will but she felt that she should follow her heart and that was with him. But she did wonder what he has been doing all this time and hasn't even come to see her. She tried to convince herself that he was just busy with work but she couldn't stop the feeling that he was avoiding her. But that was silly, she reassured herself, why would he be avoiding her.

While Elizabeth was getting dressed, downstairs her father was having a meeting with Norrington and other associates of his. It seemed as if Captain Jack Sparrow had successfully managed to get away yet again from their nets. They had been trying for a week to get him but found that the mission was foolish and stopped the search. Since the search was a mess everyone involved turned bitter when the mention of the name Sparrow comes up in any conversation (this made Elizabeth laugh slightly). The meeting was already done by the time that Elizabeth came downstairs.

"Good Morning Miss Swan," a gentleman called up to her as she was descending the stairs.

"Good Morning, sir," she answered. She smiled as some of the gentlemen were already leaving. She paused for a second as she took notice of Norrington.

"Ah, Elizabeth honey, your finally up," her father stated as she smiled in response. "What are you planning on doing today?"

"I was actually planning on going to see Will today and see what's he's been doing," Elizabeth answered as the two exchanged looks.

"You two haven't been in contact with each other in a while, so I've noticed," he started.

"Your point being?" she stated, she was starting to get angry with him. What was his deal?

"Well, maybe that's a sign saying that neither of you two are ready to get married."

"Wait, a week ago you seemed as if you were fine with the proposition of me and Will getting married," Elizabeth insisted. "And now, you're saying that we're not right together."

"I'm just looking out for your well being Elizabeth, is it wrong for me to think about that?"

"No, of course not but what completely wrong is when you are trying to change my mind on who I love!" She snarled back at him.

I have a feeling that this is going to either turn ugly or bring me into it, Norrington thought to himself as he watched the two get at each other's throat.

"Will is just not the perfect man for you!" her father yelled back.

"Why? What makes him so different from a man like- Norrington that makes it such a horrible match!" she screamed back. Norrington stared; did she really think I was such a bad match for her?

"You said so yourself- Will is a pirate!" he barked back. She knew in some way that he would bring this up.

"Well, whatever I'm going to go see Will now and that is final!"

"Fine! Then we're going with you!" he yelled back. At the time he said we Norrington narrowed his eyes and suddenly wishes that he didn't say we because now Elizabeth was staring daggers at him.

"Fine let's go!"

(In the mean time, Will Turner is in his blacksmith store preparing an order.)

For the last week, he didn't mean to avoid Elizabeth, but he couldn't help it. He learned so much about himself in such short time that he had to take it all in. And since he had to take it all in, then that meant no dealing with newer issues like him and Elizabeth. He still had to figure out what they should do or what he really wants now. Lately he's been having dreams of the sea and being on a ship sailing the open sea, after all he is a pirate. Will had been so confused and busy at this time that he did not hear a small knock on his door but when it knocked the second time he answered.

"Come in," he said politely as he could as he slammed his hammer onto the metal. He looked sideways to see a woman of his age (or slightly younger) with long brown hair, slim figure and hazel eyes look at him nervously. He smiled quickly and worked a little more on his project then turned to the woman, which slightly startled her. "May I help you?"

"Oh yes, uh I'm looking for a Will Turner," she replied shyly taking in his features. There was no doubt to her that this man is attractive and well built because of his job. She looked away for a second to look at something else.

"And who may I suppose you are?" Will questioned looking straight at her.

"My name is uh- Jesziveine Hunter, sir. Do you know Mr. Turner or should I come back another time-" she started.

Will laughed in spite of himself and reached his hand out and stated," no you don't have to come back, I'm Will."

(In the mean time Elizabeth, her father and Norrington were walking and came to his door when they heard Will laugh. Elizabeth opened the door slightly and saw a slim girl with long dark hair, she was gorgeous, what could he be doing with her? She wondered to herself. But before she could close the door again her father and Norrington already had a look and their mouths opened slightly at the sight of the girl. They all looked at each other and nodded in agreement to listen in on their conversation.)

"Is there anything I could help you with?" Will ask as he pulled up two chairs so they can sit together.

"Actually, there is one thing- umm I was look-ing for a place to stay," she stuttered. At the sound of this Elizabeth stared even more. She didn't know if she could bare having someone as beautiful as her living with him.

"Uh, I'm afraid, lass that you've come to the wrong place maybe you could try a hotel or something I'm just a blacksmith," he answered gently.

"Well I know that you're just a blacksmith but the person who sent me here told me that you could let me stay with you," she whispered.

"Who sent you here?" he inquired.

"Captain Jack Sparrow," she answered. Out of all answers she he didn't expect that. Why would Jack send her to him? How did she even know him? And lastly when did she last talk to him?

(At the sound of the captain's name both Norrington and the governor grunted when they heard it which won both of a dagger look from Elizabeth.)

"Jack sent you?"

"Well yes, see I told him where I was going. He told me that I should go see a blacksmith that works around this area and you would the only blacksmith so I assumed that he would be talking about you," she answered in hope that he would let her stay with him. "I really don't take up a lot of space. I didn't bring much and I brought my own money. I could pay you."

Will suddenly gave in and sighed deeply. The next time I see Jack, he's got a lot of explaining to do. Will thought to himself. "How long are you staying?"

"Only a week!" she squealed. She couldn't believe her luck!

"Okay, I'll be done in an hour so if you could wait that'll be great." He began to go back to his work without waiting for a reply from her.

She began to walk around his area when she suddenly noticed that the door was slightly opened and went to go close the door. When she got to the door she heard scampering noises, shrugged then closed it.

(Outside)

I can't believe he's letting her stay at his place. Does he not love me anymore? Elizabeth asked herself.
