CH 2 Run Jack Run
Then next morning Jack woke up and felt an arm on his chest. He turned to see a blonde with curly hair snoring her brains out. This wasn't unusual for Captain Jack Sparrow, but what was strange was that he had awoken from a rather peculiar dream.
In the dream he was chasing that hazel-eyed woman from the bar, and Will was chasing Jack, while Elizabeth was chasing Will. Jack laughed at the fact that no one was chasing Elizabeth. Jack shrugged and removed the woman's hand from his chest, freeing him from her sweaty grip.
Jack tried to recall what had happened last night, but was suddenly struck by a terrible headache. "Bloody Hell!" he groaned. He picked up a near by almost-empty bottle of rum, and emptied the contents into his mouth. The headache dwindled, and Jack stood. "I suppose it's best not to remember what happened last night." He mumbled to himself as he grabbed his effects and waltzed out the door.
He made his way to the bar, and ordered rum, as usual. He drank to his hearts content, and was careful not to let anyone see his face. After all, not only did he have to hide from Elizabeth, but he had to hide from the law as well. He reached into his pocket to pull out money to pay for his drink, and it had a note from Gibbs. "Jack, I didn't find out much, only that both Will and Elizabeth are looking for you. I hope you can find Will before Ms. Swan finds you. If you need me, I'll be about. Gibbs."
He paid the man, put the note back in his pocket and looked around. He caught a glimpse of same hazel-eyed girl he had dreamt of. She was leaving. Jack stood and would out of the bar. He looked right and left, and no woman. To his right was the dock with all the boats and the horizon, on the left was a wide cobblestone road. No one. She couldn't have gone down the road because he would have been able to see her, so he headed for the dock.
Jack didn't kno what came over him; he had never perused a woman like this before. There was something about her that was different. He came to the edge of the pier and saw the lady sitting cross-legged looking down into the water.
He sat down beside her, and she jumped, obviously not expecting jack to be there. "Hello again, luv." Jack said.
"Why are you following me?" she asked angrily not looking at him.
"I dreamt of you last night." Jack confessed.
"You don't know me, go away!" she yelled, not the least bit surprised to hear that she occupied Jack's dreams.
"How can I get to know you if you're so angry all the time?" Jack grinned at her.
She crossed her arms and didn't reply.
Normally, Jack would have given up, but something told him to continue. "What's your name, lass? I'm Jack...uh...Smith." He stopped himself just in time. "Jack Smith, the carpenter." He said as he extended his hand.
She looked at it in disgust. "I know who you are Mr. Sparrow." She spat.
"Have we fondled before?" Jack would have remembered being with someone as beautiful as her.
"No, but I've seen you many times before, in there." She pointed towards the sea.
"Were you on one of my ships, milady?" he questioned, getting more curious by the second.
"No," she casually replied. "Never."
"What's your name? It's only fair, since you know my name."
"Selene." Her eyes didn't leave the water.
Jack was about to ask where they had met, but someone tapped him on the shoulder. He turned to see his good friend Sir William Turner.
"Will!" Jack said in mock enthusiasm, and clearly sarcastic. 'Will has such splendid timing'. Jack thought.
"Jack, we need to talk." He said.
Jack turned to face Selene, but she was gone, the only thing left as proof of her existence, was a necklace with a aqua green gem that reminded Jack of the color of the ocean.
He looked back at Will, and rose to his feet, necklace in hand. He quickly shoved it into his pocket.
"Jack I have something to tell you." Will placed his hands on Jacks shoulders. "Come with me."
Jack followed Will with curiosity. He led him into a dark alley, and Jack followed.
"Elizabeth and I are not together anymore." He said. "Do you know why?"
Jack shrugged. "I don't know, but she has been stalking me, mate. I think you two should get back together before she finds me."
"I'm sorry, but I can't do that. I don't love her anymore." Will looked into Jack's eyes.
"What do you mean you don't love her anymore? She's your bloody wife! Do you know what people will start to think?" Jack was going crazy. If Will wouldn't go back to Elizabeth, what would become of him?
"Jack." He took one of Jack's hands. "I don't care what people think anymore." Will caressed Jack's face with his hand, and kissed him softly on the lips. Jack stepped back.
"Sorry, Will." He began to run away. He looked over his shoulder and yelled, "it would have never worked between up anyway!"
Jack continued to run remembering Will's heart broken look. Jack was terrified. That meant the rumors were true. 'William Turner likes men...likes...me...bloody hell'. Jack thought to himself.
Jack had been kissed by many men... on more than one occasion, but that was the first time it had been Will. The kiss wasn't bad, but it just didn't feel right.
Jack continued to run until he reached a bookstore. Seeing as how that would be the last place you would find a pirate, he entered inconspicuously. The bookstore owner looked up at him and smiled. She looked rather familiar.
His reputation preceded him, she said, "Hello, Mr. Sparrow, I've been looking for you." The woman pulled off her hair, which turned out to be a wig, only to reveal her true identity.... ELIZABETH!!!
