Chapter Twenty
After Jack and the rest of his crew walked aboard the ship they set sail for Port Royal. Jack wondered how long it would be before the wedding. Hopefully he'd get there in time.
Before they were even out of the docks Jack turned and saw something he couldn't believe. "Stop the ship!" he screamed. The crew panicked at the captain's sudden cry. The crew lowered the anchor as fast as they could.
Once the ship was finally at a halt Jack ran off the ship as fast as he could. He ran to where he saw a couple holding a bundle boarding a small boat. Were these the people that he was looking for? There was only one way to find out.
Jack ran over to them, and stopped in front of them. The couple just stood there giving Jack a questioning look. Jack didn't say anything he simply looked back at them. He then spoke to the woman holding the bundle.
"What is in there?" Jack asked while pointing to the blankets. The woman unfolded the blanket. There was nothing. At that moment all the hope in Jack's body vanished. Jack didn't say anything He simply walked away.
Jack walked slowly back to his ship. He walked aboard and walked over to the wheel. "Uh we's still going to Port Royal cap'n?" Gibbs asked hesitantly. Jack didn't say anything he just nodded his head yes.
The crew hurried along bringing up the anchor. They then began to set sail for Port Royal once again. Jack just gazed at the sea like he always did. "At least I have one pearl that will never leave my side." He thought to himself as he moved his hand up and down the wheel.
Gibbs walked back over to Jack and said, "Since it still be early morning sir, we be able to get there by tomorrow afternoon." "Good" Jack mumbled. Gibbs sighed and put his hand on Jack's shoulder.
"I truly am sorry mate, but don't ye think it's about time we stop lookin? Ye know we ain't ever going to find 'er." Jack knew what Gibbs was saying was true, but he couldn't stop! That was HIS daughter after all. Jack just nodded his head as if to say I know.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was the day before the wedding. Will and Elizabeth confronted Elizabeth's father about how they only wanted a small wedding. They told him that if they didn't have a small wedding that they would have a wedding somewhere without him.
Her father didn't believe any of this, so they told a few close friends that they would be having a small wedding tomorrow afternoon. They were both very excited.
~*~
It was night now, and Elizabeth could not sleep. She sat by her window and gazed at the sea. It was so peaceful late at night. No noise coming from the streets of town. Only the lights from a few houses and the tavern were shinning.
It was truly the best time in Port Royal. There was a slight breeze. Elizabeth shivered for the only thing covering her was a sheet from her bed. She closed her eyes as the breeze swept across her face. It was warm yet chilling.
Then she heard someone mumbling. She turned to see Will had woken up. "Come back to bed Lizzie." He said while rubbing his eyes. Elizabeth took one last look at the sea, and crawled back into bed next to her fiancŽ.
Will turned over so he was facing Elizabeth. He placed his hand on her cheek. She closed her eyes and smiled. Thoughts of Jack rushed into her mind when she closed her eyes. Elizabeth opened her eyes once more. She couldn't think about Jack! Not right now!
She couldn't be having second now! She didn't love Jack!! She loved Will...right? Or maybe it wasn't Jack maybe it was Pearl. Elizabeth hoped that Pearl had a loving family. She hoped they would meet again someday.
With Will's hand still caressing Elizabeth's face Elizabeth leaned in and kissed him. She then pulled away with panic in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Will asked.
"I couldn't feel anything." Elizabeth whispered.
"Feel what?" Will asked in a confused way.
"When I kissed you...I..I didn't feel anything."
"What do you mean?" Will asked. Elizabeth closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Never mind" she mumbled. "I must just be tired."
Will smiled and gave Elizabeth one last kiss. He then rolled over and drifted off. After Elizabeth knew Will was asleep she crawled out of bed, and walked back over to the window. She gazed at the sea once again. She could hear the waves of the sea.
Even the waves were softer at night. People believed that at night the sea would rest so the people of Port Royal could sleep peacefully. Elizabeth believed that it was true because the sea looked calm and peaceful. How she wished that she could sail once more.
Maybe when Will and her were married she could sail with him. They could explore the world together. Just the two of them, "If only..." Elizabeth whispered. Elizabeth then crawled back into bed. Before she drifted off she whispered to her self, "I love you Jack. Please know that."
Elizabeth then drifted off into sleep.
~*~
The next morning they both awoke early for the wedding. All of the servants knew about the wedding. The only person in the house that didn't know about it was her father. Elizabeth sent some of the servants out to set up for the wedding.
They had to be careful about it so her father didn't suspect anything. During breakfast Will and Elizabeth were very quiet. Her father suspected something. He cleared his throat and then said, "So what time is the wedding?"
Without thinking Will blurted out, "This afternoon." Elizabeth looked at Will with anger in her eyes. Will then realized what he did. Her father just gave both of them a stern look.
"Father we"- Elizabeth was cut off by her father.
"Elizabeth, I realize how unfair I've been about this. Since there is nothing I can do about it now I suppose the wedding will have to be continued, BUT all I ask is that I get an invitation." Her father said with a smile.
Elizabeth couldn't believe her ears. She got up, and ran over to her father. She then wrapped her arms around him.
"Thank you father. You don't know how much this means to us."
"Yes well, you better start getting ready. You don't want to be late for your own wedding."
With that Elizabeth grabbed Rosa and the two ran up stairs to her room. Will stood up and said goodbye to the governor, and that he would see him soon. Will dashed out into town to his shop where he would get ready.
~*~
"The dress looks lovely on you Liz." Rosa said happily.
Elizabeth stood in front of the mirror. She looked beautiful. She should be happy right now, but something didn't feel right. She started to think this wasn't what she wanted. As Rosa helped her put on the vale Elizabeth turned around to face Rosa.
"Rosa I'm having second thoughts." Rosa looked stunned.
"What do you mean? You can't have second thoughts! Your getting married to the man you love! What's to think about?"
"I don't know, it just doesn't feel right."
"You can't back out of this now Lizzie!" Rosa said in worry. Elizabeth closed her eyes and thought about Will. Moments later she opened her eyes and looked at Rosa. Her eyes were filled with tears.
"Your right. I love him. I can't back out now." She said trying to hold back the tears.
A/N: Haha! Ya'll are going to have to wait until the next chapter to find out what happens next! Aren't I sweet? Lol j/k!
