3rd chapter up! Hazay! Please R&R. Starts off weird. Just thought I'd warn.

Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN CAPTIAN BARBROSSA OR ELIZABETH! (there I think that does it)

He didn't sleep alone that night. But it wasn't what he expected either. Her hands to face still caused him to shudder. Why had she done it? It was too Beauty and The Beast for his liking. And yet he enjoyed every second of it. Her body moved perfectly with his under damp and dirty sheets. Her beautiful body. What wonders it held. The current of the curves. Her hair gently falling onto her breasts. Her eyes staring into his, lost in lust. Her soft mouth kissing his. And now she lay asleep. His arm wrapped around her waist while she was in her dreams of home and the warmth of it. But he could show her warmth too. The warmth of a man who once loved. Once loved a woman so dearly he'd give anything to keep her. And now he had her again. This time, though, she was far more gorgeous than before. It was like starting over. A second try at love. This time he would get it right. This time he wouldn't let her go for a reason that seemed good at the time. This time he knew love wouldn't slaughter his spirits. This time he was determined. This time he was truly in love. He was in love? What an odd concept for a man of his stature. What an odd concept for him at all. But he knew it was true. The woman he'd been waiting for lay in his arms that night. And he was never going to let her go. Not ever again.

Barbrossa woke at the sound of a woman's voice. The inciting sound drew him out of bed and onto the deck. There she was. All in white. Her dress waving about in the high winds. Her hair was thrown back by the wind, making it perfectly clear her entire body was a skeleton. She called his name and bony finger asked him closer. He did what he was told. He walked toward her. "Kiss me," she said. "just one last time." And he did. Her lips suddenly melted into the soft ones Elizabeth owned. He pulled her figure closer. She squirmed away and stared into his eyes. Afraid of him and yet not sure of what just happened. Had the captain lost his mind? Or was it all too late to figure it out? He turned away from her and went back to his room without a word, an identifiable blush to his cheeks. What was he thinking? He could never love anyone. He wasn't meant to be in love. He hurt people and killed them. Never could anyone love a man so cruel as that.

More soon! I hope you enjoyed it. A little fast paced? Please tell me what you thought. Thanks, loves!
