Disclaimer: I don't own Pirates of the caribbean.... But I do own the character Nicola and Ria in this fic.
As the two carried on laughing, Will was walking past. He looked at the two of them a little weirdly. "What are you two laughing about?" He asked, as their laughter went down.
"It's a long story mate..." Jack chuckled as he answered. "Now, where's yer wife?" He asked noticing that Will was alone, for once!
"She's slepping. She needs her naps, you know. It's important to sleep heaps while you're pregnant. I think..." Will suddenly whispered, making it a big deal.
Nicola gasped as she whispered too. "I hope we didn't wake her up!" Then she paused. "Mr Turner, whats pregnant?" She questioned.
"It's when someone has got a baby in their tummy!" He explained simply.
"But how did the baby get into Mrs Turner?" She asked, blinking.
Will looked over at Jack for help. "Erm......" He was sweating.
Jack grinned. "Nicola, Elizabeth, er I meant Mrs Turner has a baby in her stomach because...." He glanced at Will, and he was sweating even more at what Jack was about to say.
"Because?" Nicola urged, eager to know how.
Jack put on a serious face. "Because, she an' Mr Turner went to the baby market and bought a little baby, silly!" His face suddenly broke into a huge wide grin as Will sighed in relief. Jack seemed satisfied with his explanation.
But Nicola wasn't. She formed a frown. "But how did the baby end up in her tummy?" She repeated the question again.
Jack was running out of four-year-old 'explanations' and it was his turn to look at Will for back-up. Will looked as though he didn't have anything much to say either.
Thant's when Elizabeth, who happened to be listning to Jack's ridiculous stories, came to the rescue. "Oh, Nicola? How nice to see you." She greeted her giving Jack and Will a 'you-better-thank-me-soon' glance. "Where's your mother?" She asked changing the subject."
Jack gestured a 'thank-you' by clamming his hands together.
Nicola turned to see Elizabeth. She smiled. "Hello, Mrs Turner. Mommy's with father, she said she'll be organizing their wedding!" She answered.
Jack butted in. "Speaking o' wedding... When is the wedding actually on?" He asked.
"It'll be a week away from today, I presume. Don't worry Jack. You wont miss your sister's wedding!" Elizabeth reminded him.
Jack gave in a grin. "I ain't going anywhere, cos Gibbs took charge o' me beautiful Pearl, not permanently. Just fer a little while, o' course!" He added quickly. "I just want the wedding ter take place and be done over with!"
"Oh, that reminds me!" Elizabeth exclamied. "I think you should go and buy something... erm.... fancy, for the wedding!" She suggested.
Will agreed too. "Yes, it is your one and only sister's wedding!" He said.
Jack raised an eyebrow at the image of him in one of those suits the commodores wear. To top it off, he imagined himself wearing a white wig with it. "Ahhhh!" He shouted his scary thoughts away. "No, no, no... No way am I going ter wear a suit! I'm going ter 'er wedding just the way I am right now!" He said, making his point clear and that was that!
Ria was walking with Norrington, side by side. They were on their way back home, and they were pretty tired. Ria really wanted see if Nicola and Jack made any trouble though.
"Where did you leave Nicola?" James asked as they passed the bakery.
"She's with Elizabeth and Will an.... Yeah." She answered, nearly saying Jack's name. She wasn't concentrating, as she was thinking of an excuse to go and have a check. "Er... That reminds me. I better go and see if she hasn't caused any trouble."
Norrington nodded. "Yes..." He paused. "Do you want to go alone or shall I go with you?" He quizzed.
Ria managed a smile. "I think it'll be best for me to go alone." She half lied.
Norrington replied, taking no suspicions, although he had a little confused expression. "Well, I don't see why not. I'll be waiting at home, hope to see you soon." He gave her a quick peck on the cheek and left.
When Ria arrived at Will's house, she saw Jack and Nicola playing very noisily outside, in the front yard of Elizabeth and Will's house.
"Jack, get inside the house now!" She yelled strictly, pointing to the door impateintly.
Unlike Ria, Jack remained calm. "Why should I?" He quizzed, smartly.
Ria's eyes strained."Just get inside, so no-one can see you!" She hissed. When she saw Jack ignoring what she said, she screamed, "NOW!"
After about 10 minutes, Jack finally got inside. Nicola was left outside, wondering whatr he and Ria was gong to argue about.
When Jack sat down on the closest stoodl, Ria yelled again, "Have ye absouloutly lost yer mind? It was a miracle Norrington, or the people out in town didn't notice ye!"
Jack smirked at the pirate accent building up. "Ria, luv... Calm down. Just breathe..." He stopped to take a drink of rum.
"Oi, where did ye get that?" Ria asked, gesturing to the small glass bottled rum.
Jack froze and looked hesitant. "No, I didn't steal it from someone, if ye mean that..." He paused to take another swig. "i just found it!"
Ria narrowed her eyes., with her steady brething returned. "And tell me, where did you find it?" She asked again.
Her brother gulped. "I..." He paused for an excuse to create, but before he could explain, Ria had it already figured.
"No, Jack... Those lame lies you make up doesn't work for me any more! Tell me the truth..." She demanded.
Jack clenched and re-clenched his fists, and he hesitated befor eopening his mouth to speak. "Fine... I, I found this" He started as he pointed to the rum. "In Will's working place." He almost whispered.
When those few words clicked into Ria's ears, her eyes went wide with shock. "WHAT? You don't mean the blacksmith's, do you?" She questioned, her breathing going ragged again. When Jack gave her an uncomfortable nodd, Ria screamed in frustration. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, Jack you stupid retard! What were you thinking? You actually went to town, where everyone could see you?" It was miraculus that Ria's pirates accent wasn't out.
"Not so loud Ria. I'm not deaf ye know... Although ye nearly deafened me by screaming so close in my ear!" Jack told her, after he unblocked his ears. "An' no-one saw me, I was too quick... Well the rich snobs out there were too busy to notice me anyway." He looked down at the rum. "An' there going ter see me at yer wedding, so why make it surprising?" He finished off with a mouthful of the liquid.
"You.... errrrrrrr.... You, you just stay in this house!" She argued. And before she left to see Nicola, she slapped Jack on the back, which made Jack spray out the rum in his mouth. "Oops, my bad!" Ria apologized, sarcastically. "Remember, stay!" She grinned as she went off.
Jack felt very helpless, as he stood watching the rum sink into the carpet. "My precious rum!" Jack managed through his coughing. When he got over it, he glare at the last place Ria was. "How 'bout no! I'm not going ter stay 'ere... I'm doin' whatever I want ter do." He complained to himself bfore he jumped out a nearby window.
Wonder what Jack's up to? Catch up with the next chappy! LoL
