A/n: Still don't own PotC. (Sighs exasperatly) Again, thanks for the reviews!
*~*~*
You walk out of Elizabeth's room on the edge. You're not sure if Jack is going to like this look. It seems too made-up and proper but you head down to the parlor behind Elizabeth anyways she seems so happy at your makeover that you just don't have the heart to tell her you couldn't model it in front of Jack.
"Jack is going to love it!" Elizabeth squeals, happily bounding down the stairs and showing you the way to the parlor. You smile but the worry remains on your mind.
*~*~*
Jack hears the door open slowly. Will looks up and smiles as he sees Elizabeth. She smiles back. Jack turns around to see Elizabeth and you. He tries to look normal but can't hide the look of shock on his face.
"Wow, what do you think Jack?" Will tries to get his attention but can't. Jack just stares at you. Eventually, Will has to snap his fingers in front of Jack's face. You just have to smile at this.
"Ye look…beautiful" he says dully, as if in a trance, and looks at you in a way that confuses you. You smile, trying to ignore the sinking feeling in your heart that's causing you to wonder if maybe he doesn't like you as much as you thought.
*~*~*
Later that night, you sit on the bed in a spare room that Elizabeth offered you. You'd only accepted because Jack had. Jack was in the room right next to yours, you have an adjoining bathroom. Elizabeth had given you one of her nightgowns to wear for that night.
You flop flat against the bed and try to relax. You wish you could relax but your body just won't obey. Your muscles are tense and your brain seemed to be dead but that doesn't stop you from thinking about Jack. You wonder what he's thinking right now. Maybe, just maybe, he's thinking about you.
*~*~*
Meanwhile, in Will and Elizabeth's room, Will is laying in bed while Elizabeth combs her hair in the large mirror. Her brush is encrusted with tiny rubies.
"How was your day?" Will asks Elizabeth, carefully, hoping she won't nag him. But, oh well, he thought, this was the sacrifice Jack was talking about when he spoke about marriage.
"Very well, thank you," Will heaved a sigh of relief "But, one thing is troubling me." He doesn't want to ask but his gut tells him to ask or get in trouble.
"And what would that be?" he asks.
"Well, (you) seems to like Jack a lot, but he's not exactly charming her and she doubts he even likes her remotely," Elizabeth explains. Will looks at her incredulously.
"Jack is in love with her! He told me that he figures she could never love a man like him and I couldn't talk him out of it!" Will says and sits up quickly.
"Really?" Elizabeth asks and tucks herself underneath the covers.
"Yeah, amazing how we used to be like that?" Will says and looks at Elizabeth. She looks down at him.
"We have to get them together" they both say in unison.

A/n: Sorry, sorry, and sorry even more! Really short chapter, sorry! I just had to leave it here, my brain is zapped for ideas! If anyone could leave any suggestions, it would be largely appreciated! I have the story planned out but, as they say, the devil is in the details!
