"Katherine?" Jessy sighed, as Katherine dressed her in a pink dress.
"Yes?" Katherine smiled.
"What's it like in Port Royal?" Jessy asked sifting around in her gown. "Do I have to wear a dress like this every day?"
"Yes, you have to wear a dress like this everyday." Katherine laughed, "Your just lucky its not a formal one."
"What?" Jessy shouted.
"Port Royal is very nice, and civilized." Katherine ignored her sister's outburst. "It's a change from your sort of lifestyle, but I think you'll find it quite pleasant."
"I'm sure I will." Jessy said sarcastically. "What do you think about Davy?"
"He's too old for you." Katherine sighed heavily.
"No!" Jessy screamed and made a face, "I mean in general."
"He's a pirate." Katherine shrugged.
"Do you think he fancy anyone?" Jessy smiled. Katherine stopped and thought.
"No!" Katherine started opened mouth at her sister. Jessy smiled and nodded evilly. "I knew he fancied her! This is so exciting!" Katherine clapped her hands. "Wait! What about James?"
"He's young," Jessy shrugged at Katherine, "He'll find someone else, besides he's probably only in lust and not love."
"Good point." Katherine smiled. "What should we do now?"
"Nothing." Jessy nodded.
"Nothing?" She gasped. "We can't tell anyone?"
"Nope, let them figure it out for themselves."
Emma sighed. She would have to marry James. It would make her parents happy. They would be in Port Royal the next day. She would say yes, and he would be happy, her parents would be happy, her brother would be happy, but Davy. Emma felt tears coming up. She was confused. She couldn't talk to anyone. Her fifteenth birthday was when they would be arriving. She would be able to marry when she was sixteen. James said he would wait till then, but could she learn to love him then? Emma felt someone touch her shoulder. She turned.
"Father." Emma smiled and cleared her throat. Will looked down at his daughter.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Nothing." Emma sighed and smiled. She was forcing tears back, now. "I'm fine, I really am." Will didn't look convinced. She sighed in frustration and left. Her head down, she bumped into Davy with his bad shoulder, and he winced. "I'm sorry, Davy." Emma bit her lip and looked into his eyes for a moment, and turned quickly and sharply. Davy watched her go. Will had been watching. Will watched how Emma and Davy looked at each other.
"I'd be watchin' them two, I were you." Bootstrap whispered to his son. "Never know what kind of things go in young people's minds."
Pearl waltzed over to Jessy who was sitting on some ropes in a dress.
"Not a good look for you love." Pearl smiled. "Especially if you're trying to get rid of the Tourtuga whore image."
"I'm not going to Tourtuga," Jessy sneered, "I'm going to live with my mother, and father in Port Royal."
"How?" Pearl plopped down next to her.
"I don't know," Jessy admitted, "but I'm going to."
"Best of luck to you love." Pearl smiled, and hugged her friend.
"Pearl," Jessy began, "how did you know that Captain Sparrow was your father?"
"Looks mainly, but I got it since me mom named me Pearl." Pearl shrugged.
"How about Davy, he doesn't look anything like Captain Sparrow." This question had been on her mind since she met the Sparrows.
"He's my twin actually. Don't know why we don't look alike, some twins don't." Pearl nodded her head in agreement to herself, and spotted her brother trying to attack the wall with his good arm. "Better wait till that heals, mate." He looked over at her.
"If it doesn't heal?" Davy asked.
"Don't know." Pearl shrugged. "Quit being a pirate." Pearl smiled, she knew he brother hated being a pirate. Davy smiled.
"You know I'll be hanged the moment I walk into a town." Davy shrugged.
"Maybe not a particular town." Pearl eyed him, and then nodded towards Will and Elizabeth. Davy looked at his sister's strange movements, and again she nodded towards them. He looked in the direction.
"Port Royal?" He asked. Pearl nodded.
"Bet they set you up with a nice little job and a wife." Pearl smiled. Davy stared at her and shook his head and left.
"Yes?" Katherine smiled.
"What's it like in Port Royal?" Jessy asked sifting around in her gown. "Do I have to wear a dress like this every day?"
