A/N just wanted thank all my reviewers. *wink. Please r&r, thanx
Elizabeth lay awake in her bed that night. She felt so cold, even though the room was warm. She rolled over to see the empty side of the bed, usually where Will would lay, but not tonight, and maybe never again for all she knew. She just wished she could kiss him once more. A tear rolled down her soft cheek. Without a passing second, Elizabeth curled up in her covers, and began to cry. She felt horrible for leaving Jack to argue with her on the boat. She knew she should have stayed in her room, but for reason she felt that she felt that she had to help.
And he left her, in a heart beat.
She woke up in the morning, still feeling the terrible coldness from last night. She lazily got up and walked to the bathroom. She felt dizzy. Tired. All around terrible. She walked back to her bed, pulled the covers over her and tried to sleep. Soon, she slowly drifted off into a dream. Or maybe a nightmare.

Your body's warm but you are not
You give a little not a lot
It could be love until we kiss
You're all I want but not like this
I'm watching you disappear but you, you were never here
(Chorus)
It's only your shadow, never yourself
It's only your shadow, nobody else
It's only your shadow filling the room
Arriving too late
And leaving too soon (x2)
Your body gives but then pulls back
The sun is bright, the sky is black
Can only be another sign
I cannot keep what isn't mine
You left your love linger on, but you, you were almost gone
(Chorus)
It's only your shadow, never yourself
It's only your shadow, nobody else
It's only your shadow filling the room
Arriving too late
And leaving too soon (x2)
(Bridge)
How can I tell if you mean what you say?
You say it so loud that you sound far away
Maybe I have just a glimpse of your soul
Or what that your shadow I saw on the wall?
I'm watching you disappear but you, you were never here
(Chorus)
It's only your shadow, never yourself
It's only your shadow, nobody else
It's only your shadow filling the room
Arriving too late (No no no)
It's only your shadow
It's only your shadow, nobody else
It's only your shadow
Arriving too late, and leaving too soon
Ooh
It's only your shadow.
Will, on the other side of the island, was having his share of problems. He had stayed up all night, thinking of where Elizabeth may be. 'What if their still searching for me out at sea?' He thought. Of course, he hadn't seen anything. Nothing would bring Elizabeth back into his arms again. No crew members had come looking for him. No posters. No signs. Nothing. If they were looking for him, Miss Dowell would have known. To his surprise, Miss Dowell knew many things, maybe things she shouldn't have known.
He walked out into the kitchen quietly. Just as he turned the corner, he could see Miss Dowell, talking on the phone, to who, he didn't know. He slowly walked backwards, so he could get a little closer to listen in.
"I swear he seems like a trouble maker!" Miss Dowell told the man. He couldn't hear what the man said, but he wasn't giving up that easily.
"He's been generous enough to let me help him, but he seems a little uneasy. In his sleep I." she stared around the room, luckily Will dodged the glance, "I hear him talk in his sleep!" At this, Will was a little confused. 'I speak in my sleep?' At this point, the man spoke again, but in more of a curious tone.
"He mostly talks about 'his ship'! What's that supposed to mean?" Miss Dowell said. At this point, she sounded a little scared. Will decided that he needed to clear things up. After he had breakfast.
He opened the drawer and pulled out a piece of bread. He put come peanut butter on it and walked into the room where Miss Dowell was talking to some one on the phone.
"Will! Oh, you scared me!" Miss Dowell said as she jumped out of her seat at the surprise of him.
"Sorry" Will said, and he took a big bite of his bread.
"Yes, I must go now. Yes, ill call you later! Bye." Miss Dowell said to the man on the phone.
"Who was that?" Will asked Miss Dowell curiously.
"Oh, just the man who owns the church. I had to clear my self." She said and walked into the kitchen.
"Miss Dowell, I think I need to speak to you about something." He said. Miss Dowell took this as a surprise. Usually people didn't tell her something. Usually she tried to figure something out for herself.
"Why yes dear, What do you need to talk about?" She said softly.
"This may come a surprise to you, but." Will started, finding it hard to explain to a wonderful woman that had helped him for the past 3 days, "but, im a pirate." Miss Dowell did take it as a surprise. She dropped her tea cup that she had been holding and she slowly back up, until she reached the counter.
"You're, you're kidding right?" Miss Dowell said shakily. She seemed frightened.
"Yes, but Miss Dowell, im don't just go town to town 'blowing' things up!" he announced. He just wanted to make everything clear.
"Oh, well, I guess then all pirates aren't bad. But, your not going to ki.kill me are you? She spoke in a nervous tone.
"No! Why would I want to do that?" Will protested.
"Well, I thought that's what pirates do." She said, sounding calmer than before.
"I need your help though." Will said quietly.
"Yes." She said, soon regretting it. Will took a seat at the table and motioned for her to do the same. She slowly made her way to a seat that was the farthest away from Will.
"6 nights ago, as I remember, I was aboard my ship, when we got stuck in a storm. My fiancé, was supposed to be asleep but for some reason she wanted to help. Of course, I couldn't let her. Not just because she's a woman, but because its not safe."
Will took a deep breathe and continued with his story.
"She and I argued for a bit. I decided to give up and started to head back towards the wheel, but a huge wave hit the ship, pulling me overboard. I can still remember hearing them scream 'man over board', even though I couldn't see them, nor could they see me! All I can really remember from that was when a huge wave took me under, that's where everything went black, and I soon wound up along the shore. Since then, I have not seen my fiancé of my crew."
Miss Dowell found this fascinating. All this time she thought he was a serial killer! Miss Dowell seemed more relived that he was getting married.
"And who is this fine woman your married too?" she questioned Will. "Miss Dowell, she's wonderful! She has the most beautiful eyes, gorgeous flowing hair and the most graceful voice I have ever heard!" Will spoke still seeing her in his mind. "She sounds wonderful Will." Miss Dowell said. "There's only one problem, I've lost her." Will said tragically. "Why?" She seemed some what concerned. "After I fell of the boat, I haven't seen them. Not even a sign!" He slowly sank back into his chair, the picture of Elizabeth out of his mind. "Well," Miss Dowell began, "I guess we'll just have to find them!" Will stood up and gave the old woman a huge hug. He hadn't felt this happy in a long time. "If we leave now, we just might be able to ask and see if anyone has seen her." Miss Dowell said as she grabbed her coat and headed for the door. Will did just the same.
