Chapter 3

Jack turned around to go warn the crew that there were two young ladies on board and every last one of them best be on good behavior to them, especially the one in trousers, when he heard one of them call his name.

"Captain Sparrow!" He looked at the girl.

"Aye?"

"Where is Allie and my cabin, sir?" He looked annoyed at her.

"Well luv, there are no more extra cabins. So you have two choices, you can sleep with the crew or with me." Will, who had been pretty silent, spoke up then.

"I have an extra bed in my cabin Jack, remember?" Now why did I say that? Will thought to himself.

"Very well, then you fine lasses have three choices, with the crew, with me, or with the whelp." The girls looked at each other and sent silent messages saying they knew where each girl would sleep. But they knew they couldn't make it look so obvious what they instantly knew they would do. Allie spoke up.

"Is there an extra bed in your cabin, Captain?"

"Why of course not luv," he said with a wink. "But you can always sleep in mine." Allie continued.

"So you're telling me that my friend and I have to choose who gets a bed to themselves, sleeps with the crew, or on your bed?"

"That's what I'm telling ye."

"How are we supposed to decide who gets the extra bed?"

"That's between ye two." Allie grabbed Liz once more and pulled her to the side.

"We'll be right back Captain. We are going to discuss how to decide who gets their own bed."

Allie and Liz walked over and they already knew who was going to get the extra bed. And it wasn't because that girl wanted a bed. It was the location of the extra bed that was important.

"Ok…You'll sleep in Will's room and I'll sleep in Jack's," Allie concluded.

"How do we tell them we came to that conclusion?" Liz asked. The two girls thought a moment. Then Allie said,

"We'll flip a coin for the extra bed in front of them. I'll let you win no matter what. Deal?" Allie nodded.

"Deal." Liz nodded back. The friends walked back over to the men.

"Well, what is the verdict?" Will asked looking at Liz, praying silently that she wouldn't be rooming with him. She shivered on the inside. Those couldn't be butterflies could they, she thought. She was determined his eyes would be her undoing.

"We are going to flip a coin to decide who gets the bed," she answered back shyly, "Do you happen to have one? There's not exactly pockets for change in this dress," she said while her hands went down the surface of her dress.

Will followed her hands with his eyes and felt a flicker of…what. It couldn't be attraction he decided. He had sworn off women months ago. At least he thought he did. He kept starring at her when he realized she had spoken to him and was waiting for an answer. "I'm sorry, what was that?" he asked embarrassed.

"I asked you if you had a coin we could flip."

"Oh yes, hold on a tick." He dug a gold piece out of his pocket and handed it to her. She took it from him and their hands brushed. She pulled back quickly. Stop being silly, she ordered herself.

"Here Allie; you flip." Allie took the coin and tossed it while saying,

"Call it in the air."

"Tales." It landed in Allie's hand and she looked at it carefully so no one else could see it. Heads. She smiled.

"Way to go, Liz. Tales it is. I guess you win the bed fair and square." She handed the coin back to her friend. Then she turned to Jack. "Well, Captain Sparrow, I believe that means I will be sharing quarters with you." Allie bent down and picked up her boots.

Jack smiled the biggest smile Will had ever seen him smile and saw Jack wrap his arm around Allie's waist and said,

"This way luv." With that he led her to his room.

Liz handed the coin back to Will, but he declined.

"You keep it. As a kind of remembrance token from you first day on the Pearl." Liz held on to it. "Better show you to your sleeping space. Come this way." Will turned around with out a backward glance and headed towards his room. Never again, he reminded himself.

Liz followed slowly behind him gripping the coin tightly in her hand. She didn't know why she felt so scared all of a sudden.
