Will paced back and forth, how dare he hit his Elizabeth, for what reason did he have? There is no reason to hit a woman Will thought especially not to hit Elizabeth. Will looked at Elizabeth who was looking back at him, he looked in her eyes and saw there was something she was hiding. "Why did he hit you Elizabeth?" Elizabeth walked over to him but Will took a step back. Elizabeth stopped in defeat. "He said he was my fiancé and that was final." Will motioned her to go on. "He said that if I didn't tell you that you were no longer in my heart he would kill you. I couldn't bear the thought of it Will." Elizabeth wiped a tear from her face. "I didn't mean anything I said back at your shop, I couldn't tell you the truth then." Will's eyes were filled with rage. "Why?" He asked. "It only would of made matters worse for you, and for us." Will walked over to her but said nothing he only looked at her, he had love in his eyes. Elizabeth looked up at him questionly. "What are you thinking of?" Elizabeth asked. "You." He said. "And what I will do if . . ." He trailed off, and then brought his mouth on hers. "Don't leave, Elizabeth. Please, don't leave me." He wrapped her in his arms, contented to stay there forever. Elizabeth wrapped her arms around his neck. "Oh Will, I'll never leave, I thought I would never be in your arms again." He pulled away and placed his lips upon hers and kissed her in fiery passion. His hands encircled her waist as he pulled her closer. Elizabeth pulled away. "I love you Will." Will kissed her lightly on the lips and pulled away again. "I love you Elizabeth, everyday it grows, and it can't stop." Elizabeth smiled at his remark and she felt warmth inside her. Will stroked her cheek. "You must be tired." Will suggested. Elizabeth nodded. "I am. After the incident with Norrington and Jack with the ether.." She trailed on. Will nodded. "I'm going to talk to Jack about that one." Will looked up and took her hand. "Here come one I'll put you to bed." Will leaded her way below deck into a separate room with a single bed. Will led her to the bed and drawled her to lay down he sat on the edge, as he pulled the covers over her body. Will kissed her lightly on the mouth. "Sleep. I'll be in the morning." Will went to get up but Elizabeth grabbed his arm. "Will. Stay with me." Will turned to Elizabeth and obliged to her request he layed beside her and took her into his arms, Elizabeth rested her head on his chest and drifted onto sleep while Will stroked her hair and went into a deep sleep with her.
