You woke up the next morning to find Jack's arm draped across you.
You carefully lift his bare arm off of you, not waking him, and get out of
bed. You pulled a green robe over your shoulders that Elizabeth had kindly
lent you, tied it shut, and looked out the window. The window faced the
backyard of the house. In the back yard there was a magnificent garden, and
from a tree hung a swing which you guessed would be for baby Jack to play
on.
Behind you, you hear Jack shift in bed and mumble something in his sleep. You shake your head with a smile on your face wondering what the crazy pirate captain was dreaming about now.
You then decide to let Jack sleep and head out to the kitchen where you are greeted by Will and Elizabeth and baby Jack.
"Did you sleep well?" Will asked you, gesturing to a seat across the table where he sat.
"Yes, thank you. For once I didn't have to worry about waking up to a sinking ship," you replied and Will and Elizabeth laughed.
"I must warn you," Elizabeth then told you, reaching across the table and taking your hand in hers, "My father and Commodore Norrington are both coming over this afternoon, just stopping by to see the baby. They wouldn't be, well, thrilled to see Jack here, if you know what I mean."
"Say no more, I know what you mean," you replied.
"It'd be so much easier for ye both to just say savvy, savvy?" Jack said, strolling into the room, fully clothed. He flopped down into the chair next to you, with his trademark smirk on his face.
Suddenly Jack sat forward in his seat, staring at the window wide- eyed. You, Elizabeth, and Will all looked from Jack to the window and back at Jack. You saw nothing at the window.
"What is it?" You asked him alarmed.
"Nothing," Jack shook his head and waved his hand dismissively. "I just thought I saw.nothing, never mind."
You looked at Jack suspiciously. That was a weird thing for even Jack to do. He looked almost as if he had seen.
Baby Jack then started crying. Elizabeth, who was holding him in her arms, looked down at him.
"Oh, dear, Will fetch me his bottle, would you?" Elizabeth looked up at her husband who nodded, stood up, and walked swiftly across the room to retrieve the baby's bottle which was warming by the fire in the living room.
"Speaking of Jacks and bottles," Jack said, standing up and following Will into the living room where he had left his rum bottle. (Surprisingly he didn't finish it off last night).
You and Elizabeth rolled your eyes and shook your heads.
"He's a good baby, I don't remember him crying at all last night," you said to Elizabeth who nodded.
"He isn't fussy at all," Elizabeth said who was rocking him as she waited for Will to return with the bottle.
"Can't say the same for my Jack," you snickered.
"I heard that!" Jack called from the living room. Both you and Elizabeth laughed.
Will returned, with Jack in tow, with the baby bottle and baby Jack stopped crying.
"Oh, let me hold him!" Jack then said excitedly. You looked at Jack with a surprised look on your face at how excited Jack became about wanting to hold the baby. Jack set the rum bottle on the table, and was handed baby Jack by Elizabeth. "Oh aren't ye a cutsie wutsie baby! Yes ye are!"
"I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it," Will said, with a grin on his face.
Jack grinned at Will, then turned his head back to the baby and made a goofy face, puffing his cheeks out and bugging his eyes. The baby squealed with laughter.
"He knows who he named after!" Jack grinned, and started bouncing the baby on his knee. The baby shrieked with yet more laughter.
"He knows his godfather," Will corrected Jack. Both you and Jack turned to Will inquisitively. Jack stopped bouncing the baby boy, and started rocking him. "That is, if you two would accept the title."
"You want us to be the godparents?" You asked him in disbelief. You couldn't believe that two respectful people such as the Turners would ask a couple of pirates, well you were sort of a pirate now anyway, to be the godparents to their baby. Then again, Will was the one who sprung a man from jail, commandeered a ship of the Fleet, and sailed with a buccaneer crew out of Tortuga, oh yes you had heard the stories, and Elizabeth was the one who had been fascinated with pirates her whole life, and saved Jack, or so you heard, so maybe you and Jack weren't an odd choice of godparents after all.
Jack looked down at the baby in his arms, smiled, and said, "How can I say no to a face like that! I'd be honored."
"As would I," you said, and looked at your godson in Jacks arms.
*****************************That Afternoon******************************
There was a knock at the front door. You and Jack looked at each other alarmed, Jack handed Will his baby, and darted from the room. The two of you ran down the hall, and into the guest room, of course not without slipping in the door way and stumbling of the rug.
Jack slowly and carefully pushed the door so it was open only slightly so you could hear what was going on.
"Hello father, Commodore Norrington, it's so nice to see you both," Elizabeth said.
"Elizabeth!" Elizabeth's father laughed, "Oh, and there's my grandson. Oh, and hello Will!"
You had never met Elizabeth's father before, but from what you could hear he seemed like a fairly nice man. He seemed genuinely happy to see all three Turners.
"Miss Elizabeth, Mr. Turner," Norrington greeted them. You noticed how his voice went flat when he referred to Will, You looked at Jack who smirked, but continued to listen, "I congratulate you on your new addition to your family."
"Thank you," Elizabeth and Will both said politely.
"And what did you say his name was? Jack?" Norrington asked, "Not after that PIRATE Jack Sparrow!" Norrington spat the word pirate as if it tasted foul in his mouth.
"Captain, Captain," Jack whispered to himself next to you.
"I just liked the name Jack," Elizabeth said.
"Yes, well, I'm afraid we must cut this visit short, we have business to attend to, right Governor?" Norrington asked.
"What? Oh, yes, of course! Elizabeth, Will, one of our ships was attacked by a mysterious pirate ship, one we have never seen before," The Governor explained.
"You wouldn't know anything about it, would you Turner?" Norrington asked.
"Me? No, of course not," Will replied.
"Well, perhaps that scoundrel of a friend of yours, Sparrow, does. If that filthy pirate does dare show his face in Port Royal again, be sure to ask him for me," Norrigton spat just about every word in his sentence.
"I will do so," Will replied.
"Well then, good day," Norrington said.
"Take care, Elizabeth, Will, and of course Jack," Elizabeth's father said.
"Now I don't believe I deserved that!" Jack said after both of you heard the door slam and walked into the living room.
Will laughed, but then asked, "Jack, do you know anything about the ship they were talking about?"
"Not a thing," Jack replied.
"But Jack."You protested, remembering the ship Anamaria and Porthos saw from the Pearl.
"Alright, luv," Jack said and rolled his eyes, he then turned to Will, "A few of me crew members saw a ship on our way over here, but it changed course after awhile. If ye ask me it's nothing to worry about."

Alrighty then, now about the baby bottles, apparently they were invented sometime in the 1800's but I'm not sure exactly when, so I don't know if they would actually be seen back in those days, but it's my story and it's fiction so I say there were baby bottles, Savvy?
Also, in the part where Governor Swann and Norrington come in I know I used he said and she said a lot, but that was because you and Jack were just listening into the conversation, so you were really sure of anyone's actions.
Review please!
