Author's note: I don't get it. I put the link to my live journal, but it
didn't show up. So here is the new link. This time I'll outsmart the
computer.

I'm in a pretty good mood, so I'm giving everyone a pretty good long chapter!
Chapter 12
No, it couldn't possibly be the book! Heaven knows where it is now. The book was a dark colored grey with gold insignias all over the cover. The paper was a crisp white and the text was a prominent black. You remembered it perfectly. But that book couldn't be it.
"Are you coming?" said Will.
"No" you answered. He smiled and took your arm again. You couldn't stop thinking about that book. Maybe it was really it! You wanted to go back to the store and see if it was. But you were almost at the house. You couldn't go back now without proper explanation to Will. You made up your mind that you would go later that night. Will and you arrived in the house to an enticing smell.
"There you are" Jack practically shouted to you and will. "I was beginning to think you stole me lass, Will!" he continued.
"I'm not your lass" you said. Jack shrugged.
"You will be soon" he said.
"Ughh" you said. Men and their gigantic egos, you just didn't understand. You wouldn't mind being Jack's lass, but the question that he would remain faithful to you struck you queer. You didn't want to be cheated on.
"Elizabeth's been cooking up a storm in the kitchen all day" Jack said. "I'm beginning to think she's poisoned it or something. She wouldn't let me in the kitchen!"
"The reason I wouldn't let you in the kitchen was because I was afraid you hadn't washed your hands" Elizabeth said poking her head out of the kitchen.
"Look ma, no germs!" Jack pouted. His hands were stained with dirt and tar. You and Will laughed. Elizabeth glared and stuck her pretty little head back into the kitchen.
"Why don't you have a cook?" you asked Will.
"Elizabeth's father never gave us money when he died. He gave us the house, but the money went to Norrington." Will grimaced.
"Oh" you said.
"On a lighter note," Jack popped into the conversation "I taught the babe how to say 'bloody whelp' because o' his father here"
"Jack! There will be none of that in this house" Will's foul mood turned, well, fouler! Just then little Mary-Beth crawled into the room they were presently standing in. Will picked her up.
"Hello little Mary!" he cooed.
"Loody elp! Loody elp!" she said. The room erupted with laughter. Even Mary-Beth seemed pleased with herself. Will was not happy.
"Very funny" he said.
"S'ok Will! I'm sure she didn't mean it" Jack said. Will just grunted and gave Mary-Beth to you.
"Oh she's beautiful!" you exclaimed. And she was. She had hazel eyes and sandy colored hair. Her nose was adopted from her father, and the rest of her features were dainty like her mother. Very quickly she pulled a lock of you hair.
"Ow!" you screeched. Mary-Beth's chin started to wrinkle and you knew what was coming next. Uh-oh. She started wailing a terrible cry.
"Elizabeth!" you yelled. Elizabeth rushed to you and took Mary-Beth out of your arms. She hushed the baby up very quickly. You felt horrible.
"It's ok darling," Elizabeth said. "I know you aren't used to it"
You shook your head. She gave you a look as if she didn't understand, then she nodded and took Mary-Beth up the stairs. You realized how hungry you were. And the roast smelled so good. You sat down in a chaise long in the sitting area. Jack came over to you. He sat next to you and looked at you as if he expected you to speak. He started.
"So, you like Elizabeth and Will?" he asked.
"They are good people" you liked Elizabeth well enough, but there was something about Will...
"Aye, they are" he replied. "You remember the night in the forest?"
"How could I forget" you shook your ankle, which you now realized was still very broken.
"Ah. Well I just wanted you to know that I wasn't trying to take advantage of you or anything"
"Hmm"
"It's been lingering in my mind. I'm really sorry" A pirate captain sorry? Couldn't be happening. But when you looked into his eyes, you knew he was telling the truth.
"I don't believe you Jack" He leaned in very close. You felt his breathing and braced yourself. You knew what was about to come, but did you want it? His lips brushed against yours and you pulled away very quickly.
"I'm sorry" he said again.
"No, no..." That kiss...it was so exhilarating. You wanted more...but you knew it wasn't right. There was a weird moment between the two of you. Luckily, Elizabeth who was beckoning everyone to dinner broke the moment. And for that you were grateful.
@*@*@*@
I think there is a query about. I'm sorry the last chapter was a sort of Will-you fic but trust me...it won't linger. Sorry Will fans! Review please!
