By the time that Caley had made it up to the vastly large Governor's
mansion atop the hill, Kat had already been placed in a bed awaiting the
presently traveling doctor. Elizabeth had finally pried herself away from
Will's arm and was down in the kitchen readying tea for the visitors to her
father's house. Luckily, her father was away on business at the present
moment, she wasn't in the mode to explain to him why numerous female
pirates were in his house.
Will found himself in a wooden, green cushioned armchair that sat next to the bed in which Kat laid unconscious. His eyes roamed over her body finally resting on her wound which began to bleed again. He took up the hand of hers closest to him in his and kissed the top of it lightly with his lips. Her hand was slightly cold, but not yet freezing, it sent a chill up his spine as his warm lips met her chilling skin.
"You can't leave Kat, you can't." He whispered as he moved his eyes back up to her, at the moment, peacefully looking face. He released her hand and placed it lightly by her side and brought a hand up to brush away a rouge lock of hair from her face.
Elizabeth shoved the door open and made her way into the room after giving the pirates their tea (which most of them only wanted rum, but were kind enough to accept her hospitality). She scurried her way next to Will and placed a kiss on his forehead.
"The doctor is here," She stated as she took hold of his hand and helped him rise from his seat.
The doctor, a tall yet plump man with a grey wig similar to the Governor's, made his way into the room with a black satchel in hand. He wore grey knickers, white knee socks, black shining shoes with gold buckles and a hunter green ruffled shirt. A pair of round spectacles adorned his aging face; he seemed to be around the age of 50. He continued over next to the bed, placing his satchel at the very foot of the it.
"Dear me," He said out loud, his face dropping as he saw the bandaged wound. He made his way towards his bag and opened it, retrieving a pair of scissors. He made a few snips, enough to remove the bandage and to remove her bloodied and utterly destroyed shirt.
Elizabeth flew a hand over Will's eyes and hurried him out from the room, shutting the door behind them. She could hear the doctor making a few remarks to himself as he worked on his patient and soon the room grew quiet which was much more than she could say for the group outside the room.
Will found himself a quiet chair to sit and think about what could be going on in that room while the pirates gabbed and sung songs about the sea. He did not, however, that Caley was not talking nor singing nor moving a great distance as a matter of fact. She just sat in a largely cushioned arm chair in a corner, her eyes looking straight ahead with her hands grasping at the arm rests. He gazed around the room at the women and shook his head slowly at them, a small smile crossing his face at their entertainment. He didn't find Jack, which was odd since he was the one that had brought Kat to Port Royal. It was odd to him, but he knew it was better not to ask questions.
Elizabeth made her way over to the chair in which Will sat and placed an arm around his shoulders and sat herself into his lap. "It is wonderful to be home, isn't it Will?" she questioned, a smile plastered upon her face as she bent down to kiss him.
He turned his head sideways, feeling her kiss upon his cheek and nodded. "It is wonderful, yet not under these conditions." He replied, his eyes resting on the door.
"Will, she's a pirate. If she lives it will be good news, if not . . " She wondered her eyes across his face as he cut her statement off.
"And I am a pirate as well Elizabeth." He nearly snapped as his eyes moved to meet hers. He noted her watery eyes as she bit at her lower lip. "Forgive me." He whispered as his eyes drifted towards the floor.
"No, it is I who should be asking for forgiveness." She said as she pushed herself from his lap, placing a kiss atop his head and retiring towards the kitchen.
Soon the doctor excited from the room, his hands bloodied. Will and Caley shot up from their seats awaiting any news. The man took a deep breath and let out a huge sigh as every heartbeat in the room stalled.
"Well doctor, what's the news?" Will questioned, curiosity and worry getting the best of him. He took a few steps towards the doctor as did Caley, her eyes never leaving the poor doctor.
"She has suffered a large loss of blood along with gaping hole in her side." He stated as he removed a white handkerchief from his pocket and began to rub the blood from his hands.
"Yes, but wha' about me mate?" Caley stuttered aloud as she leaned forward towards the doctor's shoulders.
"Yes, well, I had stitched up her wound. She will live, she will need to receive a sufficient amount of bed rest and a very good nutrition to get her back on her feet again." He lent them a hearty smile just to let them all know that Kat was to be alright in given time.
There was a collective sigh given from all the pirates and Will.
After a few days it was time for Caley to return Kat to the Mimosa to finish up her recovery and regain her life back out on the sea. Will and Elizabeth saw the pirates off handing them gifts of food to aid in her recovery along with a few bottles of rum. Will hand carried Kat into her quarter's, placing a light kiss upon her forehead and leaving a note on the desk next to her door for when she awakens. Once the sails and masts where ready, it was time for Will and Elizabeth to watch from the docks.
"Thank ye for everythin' Will lad!" Caley smiled as she gave them a huge wave as the ship was beginning to leave port. "Good luck to ye both!"
"Goodbye and thank you for your help, thanks to both you and your crew!" Will hollered as he waved at the retreating boat, a smile playing on his lips.
"Farewell, come and visit us at any given time, we would love to have you stay in our house!" Elizabeth screamed as loud as she could to get her voice over to the deck of the ship as she wrapped her arms around Will's arm.
"Don't worry, we will!" Caley replied as the ship sailed off into the sun- rising horizon. The rest of the female crew ran over to the stern to get one final look at Will before leaving him. She turned around and shook her head at her love-struck crew. "Don't ye worry ye scurvy-dogs, we'll be back to see 'em." She offered them a suave smile as she turned her attention back to the horizon painted in front of her, no sign of the Black Pearl or Jack anywhere.
~*~A/N: Alright . . .as sad as it is to say, this is the final chapter in Don't Dream It's Over. *Wails* I know I know, what a sad day it is. Now that that is over with, I would like to know if I should write you all a prequel to this showing what exactly is going on between Jack and Caley, would you all like that? Just review and let me know!!! I love you all! Thanks for sticking with me on this! ~*~
