Disclaimer: I don't and never will own any of the characters from Pirates
of the Caribbean. But it would still be really cool if I could!
AN: Thank you, everyone for all of the reviews! I got a lot of really good
ideas and suggestions. And Will is going to come in somewhere, promise.
Found At Sea
Follow; follow, the Siren's call,
To the place where a great many fall.
A hope for good fortune can lead you astray.
But that's when love can join the fray.
When the sun began to rise, the crew woke. They ate quickly and then got to the deck to tend to the sails and set the coarse.
Jack walked towards his room with a plate of rolls, some cheese, and a bottle of rum. When he entered the room, Sarah was still asleep, so he set the plates down on the bedside table. Then, Jack flopped down into a chair. It had been a long night. All he wanted to do right now was sleep, but Sarah was in his bed. Gah! The things I do for beautiful women!
" Don't fall for her mate, just don't do it." he said to himself. Jack watched her stir as she slept. It really was a good thing that she was twenty-six. I wonder how old she thinks I am. I wonder if she'll hug me again. Stop that! Okay, I'm now off the subject of Sarah.But what if she does hug me again. Knock it off!
" Good morning, Jack." Sarah had woken up, shaking Jack from his thoughts. She sat up in the bed, looking around the room, and finally resting her eyes upon him. He couldn't help it; he grinned at her making her blush. Yeah, you've still got it, mate.
" So, I suppose you'll be wanting me to answer your questions now?" Jack said as he leaned back in his chair. Sarah sat there and nodded.
" Fire away." he said and waved his hand through the air.
" How old are you?"
" I'm thirty. Next question." She thought for a moment, then asked another question.
" Why didn't you leave me out there to drown?"
" Well, you see, it's all a question of what you can and can't do. Now, I could have left you out there, but I couldn't have live with me self knowing that you may have drowned. What kind of pirate would I be if I'd have done that?" She laughed. Great, now you're telling jokes! Get off it, mate!
" Is there anythin' else you'll be wantin' to know, miss, or can I be getttin' some sleep?" Jack grabbed his hat and looked at her out of the corner of his eye.
" Yeah, I guess that's all I'd be wanting to know.for now. I'll just be gettin' changed, then." Sarah got out of me bed and pulled on her boots along with one of Jack's shirts.
" Hold on now, I don't remember sayin you could wear that."
Sarah walked over to the door to the room and said, " I don't remember askin'" And with that she left the room. Bloody women, Jack thought. There aint no controllin 'em.
" Sarah Marie Phillips! You get yourself out of bed right this instant!"
I heard footsteps and then someone rapping on me bedroom door. It had been a dream.the same dream. It's the same one I'd been having for the past few days. I wasn't sure what it was supposed to mean, but they were getting longer and more realistic.
" Don't make me come in there, young lady! Get downstairs right now and eat something!"
" Bloody ' ell, mum, I'm up!" I said as I pulled the blankets off of me and swung me legs over the side of me bed. How early was it? For some reason me legs were aching like no other, so it took me a few tries to stand up.
" Don't you talk cross to me!" And at that I heard her going back down the steps.
" Say what you bloody want, you'll never be me real mum." I changed into my dress as slowly as humanly possible. Why did I even have to wear these bloody things any ways? By the time I was downstairs, though, I was only thinking about the dream I'd had. Why was I always twenty-six in it? And why was I always a pirate? There's no pirate in my blood, even though I've always found them fascinating.
" Sarah, why in the world are you doddering around like that? Hurry up and eat!"
" Why are you rushing everything? It's not like I've got anything important to do!" She was so damned irritating!
" Don't speak to me in that tone, and that's the last time I'll tell you! And off course you've got something important to do today! We've been invited to Miss Swan's engagement party. Or have you forgotten that your best friend, Will, is getting married?" She glared at me as if I had already answered her with the cross remark I was pleading to say.
But instead I said, " Well, I had a lot on me mind this mornin!" I sat down, rather roughly, and ate as quickly and as sloppily as I could; I noted ever nasty look that was shot me way, too. When I finished, I got up and walked out the door as fast as I could so's to avoid any damned questions from 'Miss Nosy'.
I swear, Cherish had only been me step mum for a month when me father died, and now she acts like she rules the bloody world! I mean, I'm seventeen for moon's sake! When will she stop treating me like I'm a peace of glass?
Through the great battle surging between the two sides of me head, I didn't even notice where I was walkin to. That is, until I ran right into someone. I turned a corner and knocked heads with some man that I'd never seen before, but for some reason he looked familiar. I didn't think about it much, I wanted to get to Will's house before he left for work.
" I'm sorry, sir, how clumsy of me. You alright?" He nodded and that was good enough for me. I carried on walking to Will's house. My head kind of hurt from running into that guy, but it would go away eventually.
I reached Will's without running into any one else. When I got to his door, I knocked only once before he opened it. When he saw me there was a mix of happiness and surprise on his face.
" Why in the world are you wearing a dress?" he said as he let me in and motioned for me to sit down.
" Cherish. She thinks it's improper for young ladies to dress like boys. I figured that I'd humor her.but I did take me time gettin' up." Will laughed. I couldn't believe that he was gettin' married. We'd been friends for so long, I just figured that it would always be like that. But even before his adventure with all those pirates, he would always talk about Elizabeth. We could tell each other anything.
" Well, at least you'll be ready for the party. Speaking of which, I really should be getting ready for it. Do you know what time it is?"
" Last I knew, it was almost nine o'clock."
" Oh, he'd better not be late! I told him two days ago about this party and how much I wanted him to come." Will walked out of the room unbuttoning his shirt as he went.
" Who are you talking about?" I got up and grabbed a shirt and threw it to him.
" Me friend, Jack. He was one of the people form the adventure I was on last year. He's a . pirate."
" Jack Sparrow? I had a dream about him again last night. I wonder what it's all supposed to mean. I don't even know how I could be having dreams about someone that I don't know, and that I've never seen in me life."
Will finished dressing and then turned to me and said, " I'm not sure what it could mean, but it can't be anything good seeing as it involves him." I laughed, how bad could he really be?
Just then, the door to Will's house swung open to reveal the same man that I had run into on the street. He stepped inside and looked around as if he wasn't completely sure where he was. Will looked through the doorway to his room, and he stopped dead when he saw the man. It was obviously Jack Sparrow.
" Jack! Good to see that you're finally here." Will went back to getting ready for the party. Jack just kept looking around and eventually looked over at me.and he winked! He had to be drunk or something. People just don't wink at me.
I rolled me eyes and sat down on Will's small couch, and, to me horror, Jack came and sat down by me.
" Will, are you almost done!?" Will came out into the room, rolling his eyes and sighing in that way that always makes me want to hit him.
" Calm down. I'm done, but.Jack on the other hand.he's gonna need some work." Yeah, he was gonna need a WHOLE lot of work if he was gonna be goin' to a party.
" Jack!"
" What are you bloody yellin' for, mate? I'm sittin' right here, aren't I?"
" Yeah well, lets get you fit for the party we're goin' to."
" I am not getting' all fancied up! Look at me, I look just fine as it is! Oh, and I was meaning to ask you. Will there be rum?" We both rolled out eyes and headed out the door. There was no arguing with this guy.
