Chapter 6, Tortuga.

Elizabeth woke to find Jack next to her. She didn't remember when he had come in last night.

She stirred a little and Jack woke up. "Hello love," he smiled and got up quickly so she wouldn't feel to uncomfortable.

"Where are you going?" she got up to follow him.

"Tortuga, Lizzy, this ship won't sail its self into port." She walked over to him as he was grabbing his boats off the floor. "Lizzy I'm so sorry about yesterday, I hope you can forgive me. I just can never see a woman cry. Women's tears ar' too hard to take."

She looked into his eyes, And she felt how ashamed he was of himself

"I know but...I..." she looked at the floor, and almost seamed like she was going to burst out in tears.

"I'm sorry Lizzy, no one should have to go through what you have been through so young. I am so sorry." Jack kissed her forehead and left the room.

She sat back on the bed and her thoughts turned to her late husband, and remembered why they went to see Jack in the first place. She was pregnant with Will's child. How he would have loved to be a daddy. She quickly whipped away her tears and got dressed in a light blue dress and put her hair up.

She went to the deck where she could see the strange mountain range of Tortuga. Jack was at the wheel as always and when he saw her; he motioned for her to come to him.

"Tortuga! Have you ever seen such a splendid sigh'?" he pointed out all of its features.

"Jack it is...interesting." Elizabeth didn't know what to say.

"Interestin'? Interestin'! How is this place interestin' it has anything a man wants Rum, drugs, and Women!" He smiled and then looked at Elizabeth's face when he said women.

"Jack that is a man's wants, not a woman's." she looked deep into his brown eyes and started to walk away. It's Tortuga, he thought as she walked away.

Even though he loved her, he knew it was nothing more than a friend ship kind of love. And nothing could be made of it.

They lowered the anchor and the men went ashore leaving a boat for Jack and Elizabeth. Jack went inside the bedroom Elizabeth was laying on the bed crying again.

"Jack I'm so sorry but I would like to stay on the ship. I would like to be alone for awhile. Go ahead with out me."
