Can Never Love Another: Chapter 2: Big Trouble

*Two Weeks Later*

Elizabeth was sitting in the gardens, reading a book, when she felt sickness hit her again. She hurried behind the tree and went on her knees. She vomited all over the grass, but she didn't care, she wanted the nausea to go away. "Miss Swann?" A voice asked. Elizabeth got up from the ground and went to see who was calling her. She saw Estrella standing there with a look of confusion on her face. "Are you all right, miss?" She asked. Elizabeth nodded and sat against the tree and then she shook her head. "No, Estrella, I'm devastated," Elizabeth replied.

"What is it, miss?" Estrella asked.

"I-I'm pregnant," she said barely above a whisper.

Estrella watched as Elizabeth broke down crying. "What am I going to do? I'm supposed to marry Commodore Norrington in two months. Now I'm carrying someone else's child," she said. Estrella kneeled before Elizabeth. "Whose baby is it?" Estrella asked. Elizabeth leaned back against the tree with tears falling from her eyes. "William Turner II," she replied. Estrella placed a hand on her shoulder. "We have to do something," Estrella said. Elizabeth nodded and then she knew she had to see Will. "I'm going to see Will, tonight. Estrella, I'm going to write a note and I want you to bring it to him," she said.

"Yes, miss," Estrella replied.

With some help, Elizabeth got up from the ground and went inside to write the note.

Will was working when there was a knock on the door. Will went to answer the door while wiping the sweat from his brow. Once he opened the door, he saw Estrella standing there. "Estrella, how can I help you?" He asked. Estrella just handed Will the note. "It's from Miss Swann, she needs you," Estrella said. Will watched as Estrella went back towards the mansion. Will opened the note with a quizzical look on his face.

Dear Mr. William Turner II,

There is something very important you need to know, it may change things between us, and it may not. I'm not sure, so wait for me near the pier.

Love,

Miss Elizabeth Eleanor Swann

Will put the note down and knew that she wanted him to meet her when it became dark. She never wanted to take the chance of getting caught meeting someone else.

That night, Elizabeth was getting ready to leave when she heard the door open. Elizabeth spun around and gasped to see Commodore Norrington standing there. "Elizabeth, what are you doing?" He asked.

"I-I'm going somewhere, if you excuse me," she said.

She walked pass him, but little did she know was that Norrington went to follow her.

When Elizabeth reached the pier, she went searching for Will. "WILL! WILL!" She called. She smiled when she saw him standing in a dark corner. "Will," she sighed. Will walked out of his corner and walked over to her. "What is it that you wanted to tell me?" He asked. Elizabeth sighed and lowered her head sadly. "Will, I-I-I'm pregnant," she said. Will's eyes widened. Elizabeth Swann was pregnant, the one woman he loved since he was twelve was pregnant. "How long?" He asked.

"Two weeks," she replied.

Will then took a couple steps back. Two weeks, that was the night he made her his. "So, it's mine?" He asked. Elizabeth nodded and turned her back to him. "If you want me to leave now, I will. I'm sorry if I got you angry about this," she said. Will grabbed her shoulder and turned her around. "Elizabeth, I love you and I will always love you. I'm not angry about this baby, I'm surprised, but I'm not angry," he said.
"Really?" She asked.

Will placed his hand on her stomach with a gentle smile. "We made this child, together. We will be together and raise this baby together. I promise you, Elizabeth, I won't let any harm come to you or the baby," Will said.

Elizabeth hugged Will tight and sighed. "Thank you, but I have been having nightmares of Commodore Norrington hanging you because of the baby. He'll kill you because of our baby," she said. Will sighed and kissed the top of her head. "I won't let Commodore Norrington take me anywhere near the gallows. If he does, I'll find a way out of it," he said. Elizabeth placed her head on his chest and held onto his hand. "Elizabeth, I want to ask you something that I should have asked you long before the adventure," he said. Elizabeth watched as Will went down on one knee, grasped her hands in his, and looked into her beautiful brown eyes. "Elizabeth Eleanor Swann, I love you, and will you be my wife?" He asked. Elizabeth smiled at him and pushed back her tears. "Yes, William Jonathon Turner II, I will marry you," she said. Will stood up and hugged her tight. "How beautiful, men, arrest that man," ordered a voice. Will and Elizabeth were separated and Will was clasped in irons. "WILL!" Elizabeth exclaimed as she tried to reach him.

"ELIZABETH!" Will called.

Soldiers had Elizabeth blocked and two soldiers had a hold of Will. Commodore Norrington came into view. "Don't worry, Mr. Turner, I'll take care of Elizabeth for you and your child. I'll raise him or her as my own," Commodore Norrington said. He walked over to Elizabeth with a smile. "You'll be my wife and we'll be together forever," he said. Elizabeth glared at Norrington. "I'd rather be Will's more than your wife," she said. She looked at Will and tried to get to him yet. "Take him away," Norrington said. Elizabeth let tears fall from her eyes as Will was taken away from her sight. "Come, Elizabeth, we should be getting home," Norrington said. He went to grab Elizabeth's arm, but she backed up from him. "You bastard," she whispered.

"Excuse me?" Norrington asked.

Elizabeth glared at him. "You are a selfish bastard. I'd rather die a death like Will's than be your wife and be walked around Port Royal as if I'm a piece of luggage. No, I'd rather die. As for the babe, there is going to be only one person to raise him or her. By the way, it won't be you," Elizabeth said. Then she walked away from him with tears falling from her eyes.

Will was shoved into his cell and the soldier locked the door. Will sat in a corner and buried his head in his hands. "Curse you, Norrington, curse you," he said.

Elizabeth walked inside and knew she had to get some help. She couldn't save Will on her own. She had to send for help. She knew who would come to help Will, but she knew that she couldn't do this alone.

Will was pacing in his cell when he heard the door to the cells and saw Elizabeth walking over to him. "Elizabeth," he said. Elizabeth's eyes widened in shock, she saw a bruise on Will's eye. "Will, what happened to you?" She asked. Will sighed and touched the bruise. "Some of the guards in here think that I raped you and they adore you so. Therefore, they start to beat me," he said. Elizabeth looked at the soldier that stood by his cell door. "Get him out," she ordered.

"I can't do that miss," he said.

Elizabeth grabbed the knife that she had hidden in her dress and pointed it at the soldier. "Get him out," she hissed. The soldier let Will out and she threw her arms around his neck. "I can't stay, they have this place guarded, so you can't escape with me. We'll wait for the opportune moment to escape Port Royal," Elizabeth said. Will nodded and kissed her cheek. "I love you, Elizabeth, ever so much," he said.

"I love you too, Will Turner," she said.

Elizabeth watched as Will willingly went back into his cell and Elizabeth placed the knife back into the sheath. She grasped his hand with tears in her eyes. "I'll get you out. We'll be together, I promise," she said. Will kissed the top of her hand with a gentle smile. "I'll be waiting for you, my love," he whispered. Then she was pulled away from the man she deeply loved.

*Will's Hanging*

Elizabeth stood next to her father and the Commodore at Will's hanging. Even though she was going to rescue Will, tears continue to fall from her eyes. She ran over to Will when he was being dragged up onto the stand. She looked at the soldiers. "Let me say goodbye," she pleaded.

"One minute," Murtogg said.

Elizabeth looked at Will and hugged him tight. "I love you, Will Turner, I love you so much," she whispered. Will hugged her back and sighed. "I love you too," he said. Commodore Norrington grabbed Elizabeth and pulled her away while Will was being placed on the stand. "Will," she whispered with tears in her eyes. Will stood there while looking at Elizabeth. "William Turner II, you are being charged for kidnapping and rape. You are to be on this day, hung by the neck until dead. May God have mercy on your soul," the official said. Elizabeth glared at Commodore Norrington. "I don't love you, Norrington and I never will. You're going to hang the man I love for something he didn't do," she said. Norrington didn't answer, he just watched as the noose was tied around Will's neck. "NO!" Elizabeth screamed as the executioner pulled the lever. "WILL!" She called. Will closed his eyes as he felt the trapdoor open.

AN: Does Commodore Norrington kill Will and get Elizabeth? Sorry, had to stop it there.
