*Disclaimer~ I do not own "Pirates of the Caribbean" of any of its
characters. I did however make the character of the Doctor up. In chapter
Five, I said that also. I realize that the Dr. was not in chapter five, as
you all know for that chapter, that it was pretty confusing, not the
chapter, but just posting it and everything, so I was pretty disorganized
when I wrote that chapter, BUT I hope that this next chapter was worth the
wait. I am sorry for the wait but..well you know? Just read the authors
note..lol.
Thank you again Mich!

Chapter Six~ Back In Port Royal
The Black Pearl docked in Port Royal two weeks later. As Elizabeth was packing her things, Jack went to have a word with Will.
"Look 'ere Will, you remember our deal right?"
"Aye"
"The Black Pearl is yours.temporarily of course, until I am ready to make way again. She is yours until you 'ear from me again." Jack thought for a second.
"I'm gonna take Elizabeth to that there doctor, and then once they see that nothing is wrong with her, we will go on our merry way. So when you see us walking, you just make like nothing is out of the ordinary, and you let her go."
Will who was holding back tears, AGAIN! Simply replied,
"Aye"
Elizabeth came out with her bags, which Jack immediately offered to hold for her. She agreed and said,
"Hunn." She stopped herself. "Jack.I will meet you at the doctor."
"Aye" and with that Jack left Will and Elizabeth to themselves. This was the first time they had been alone since she was deserted on the island with Jack.
"Hey Will."
"Hey"
Elizabeth started to cry, knowing that she had to lie once again, to a man that she thought she would spend the rest of her life with.
"I, umm," she began "I, I'm going to the doctor with Jack, just a check up. We'll be back in a little while." She started to cry even harder. She kissed him on the cheek, and went to catch up with Jack.
Will knew that, that would be the last time he laid eyes on Elizabeth for quite some time. He watched Elizabeth walk into the distance until she wasn't visible. He threw away thoughts of pain, anger, and envy. The sea was his home now, and he had to focus on that.

One Hour Later
"Congratulations" Dr. GrobanSam announced. "Well Mr. and Mrs. Uhh"
"Sparrow" Elizabeth told him
"Ahh, ok, Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow, in about nine months or so, you two are going to be hearing the names mommy and daddy throughout your hallway."
Elizabeth wasn't sure what to say, Jack just cheered with Joy.
"Wait, so I'm, I'm bearing a child?"
"Aye" Jack replied proudly.
"Oh my God, I, I, I,"
"I'll just leave you two alone, I'm sure you have a lot to discuss" with that Dr. GrobanSam left them.
"Oh my God!" Elizabeth shouted. Tears began running down her cheeks, pouring from her eyes. "Wait, what are we going to do? I'm carrying a child, YOUR child!"
Jack had to admit that he was offended by that last comment, but he understood her worry.
"Love, calm down, everything will be alight, I promise ye that."
"No it won't Jack! What are we going to do? Where are we going to live? Oh! And what are we going to tell Will and my father? OH GOD! And you're going to leave me, leave alone with your child, YOU BASTARD!"
"Bloody 'ell Elizabeth! Calm down hun" Jack was astonished that she would even say anything like that. "First of all, I'm not leaving you, ever! Don't you see? We're gonna be a 'lil family now, and I can't wait. Second of all, we are going to live in a 'lil cottage.North of Port Royal there's a hill, and on that hill is a cottage. I'm gonna get it for us. For you, me, and the baby, and that's where we'll live."
Elizabeth could tell Jack was a little nervous by the way he was talking.
"Ok.ok" Elizabeth breathed "Alright, well if we are to live in this cottage you speak of, then what about your ship? What about the Black Pearl? What about freedom?"
"I'll give the Pearl for a while, and as for freedom, don't ye see love? We made our child when we were free. As long as I'm with you and our child, I will always be free. We, we will always be free."
By this time Elizabeth was much more clam than before.
"How are we supposed to tell Will? And my father?"
"I'll talk to Will, and as for your father. Umm, we'll write him a letter, after we are settled in; we'll let him know where we are. Then when you have the baby, we'll go and visit him.and Will!"
"Will?" she asked confused.
"Aye, Will. We'll wait until he comes back, that way we can visit your father and Will at the same time."
Elizabeth thought for a moment. She realized that it was actually a very good plan.
"Savvy?" Jack asked worried.
"Aye!" Elizabeth said excitingly. "Jack, we're going to have a baby! We're going to be a family!"
"Aye"
"I love you Jack, I know that I've told you that many times before, but I really, really do. I don't think I could have been nearly this happy if I was with Will."
Jack smiled and said,
"I don't think I would be this happy if you were with Will either." Jack kissed her. His kiss was filled with love and devotion, just as it did that night on the island. Elizabeth felt secure and happy for the first time in a while.

Four Months Later
Jack and Elizabeth were now very comfortable in their cottage. Elizabeth had only five more months to go, and she had the pudgy belly to prove it. They were both extremely happy living out their simple life together.
While Elizabeth rested at home, Jack spent his day at the dock. There he made money by docking ships of sailors, captains, and fellow pirates such as himself. Every morning Jack would wake up, walk down to the docks and hold a clipboard. On the clipboard he wrote every persons name that came in and collected three shillings. He was only supposed to collect one, but after all.he was a pirate! And a pirate with a baby on the way, if that was any constellation.
When Jack first accepted the job, he was given a special uniform to wear everyday. Jack spit on it and replied,
"Look 'ere, I really hope that you.fine gentlemen.don't expect me the wear fancy rubbish like that?"
"Actually.." The man that went to answer his question was interrupted by the sly pirate.
"Hush, hush lad. Now listen, I know more about the sea, and docks, and ships more than any other well bred men 'ere. I'm Captain Jack Sparrow.Savvy?"
The men, now trembling with fear knew who Captain Jack Sparrow, they didn't understand why he wanted this job in the first place, but they didn't question. After all they figured Jack was right, so they hired him right then and there.
Jack loved his job, even though it wasn't quite life on the sea, he had never been happier, and enjoyed life on land just as much.
Jack arrived home that night as usual and suggested to Elizabeth that they write her father the letter. She agreed and they wrote and sent this letter:
Dearest Father, I know that you must be worried about me, but I'm writing this letter to inform you that I am fine. I am happy and healthy. I am with Jack if you can believe. I am residing with the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow. Now there is no need to fret. I love him, He loves me, and we are building a life up here. We live in a little cottage just north of Port Royal. Its lovely here father, I think that you would fancy it very much. Will is actually Captain of the Black Pearl for a while. He doesn't know about Jack and I, Jack gave him some excuse for Will to take the Pearl. Once we hear word from Will, that he is coming back, we shall visit you, the both of you. That won't be for a while I'm sad to announce.
Hope to see you soon.All our love,
Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow P.S. Jack and I have a surprise for you when we visit. They sent the letter and didn't think twice about it. They knew they were doing the right thing.
The months passed like the seasons and before Jack knew it, Elizabeth was in her last month. Excitement filled them both; Jack took off work for that past month to be with Elizabeth, because she could give birth at any moment.
One afternoon Elizabeth stood up to fetch herself a blanket, when all of a sudden Jack heard a shriek from the other room. When he walked in, there was water everywhere.
"WHAT THE FU..."
"Jack.relax! Its ok.don't worry, it's time!"
"Time for...? OH! Time.ok..ok..Don't panic"
"Jack you're the one who is panicking ..just take me to Dr. GrobanSam right away! Savvy?"
"Aye."
On the way there Elizabeth was begging to feel strong, sharp pains.
"OOOOH" she moaned.and this time not in a good way.
"Jack we need to hurry"
"We will be there in no time love."
When they reached Dr. GrobanSam's office they immediately put Elizabeth into the labor room.
After a VERY painful eighteen hour birth, Jack and Elizabeth heard the welcoming cry, of their very first child.
