Author's Babble: Ok guys. Yep, I have not written in basically forever. So this chappie might be kinda weird, I'm watching Godsend at the same time as writing this.

A
man stepped out of the car, and walked up. "Excuse, young man."
He said to Jack. "I believe you owe the manager at the corner store
down the road $6." He said dryly.
Jack's eyes were wide
open, staring at the cop. "Norrington??"
He just nodded. Jack turned around, and looked straight at Will. "You never told me he was a cop!" He mouthed. Ana was quite obviously hiding a grin beneath a hand, and Elizabeth was crouched behind a garbage can, hiding from view.
"I... uh. Forgot." Will mouthed back, shrugging. He was finding this amusing, too. Jack was baffled, why would anyone find this situation amusing? Norrington cleared his throat, and Jack whirled around again, his long dark hair swirling around his face.
"Well, are you going to give him the money, or no?" Norrington asked, glaring at Jack.
"Oh, I have a choice now? Well. No." He smirked, and this made Norrington glare even harder. "I don't have any money..." Jack said, crossing his arms across his chest, mocking the position of his teacher.
"Fine. But Mr. Sparrow, I suggest you bring the money to school tomorrow, or I will have to speak with your mother." He started to turn, but Jack started to say something, and he turned back.
"Alright. Talk to my mother. You think I'm gonna have any money tomorrow?"
Norrington didn't say anything, he just turned on his heel, and got in his car. As soon as the car was out of sight, Jack turned to Will, and Anamaira. Elizabeth popped up from behind the garbage can, and grinned. "Your first encounter with Norrington, the two faced." She chuckled.
"The two faced? What is that? Why on earth was he acting like a cop? I thought he was a teacher." Jack was obviously confused.
Ana giggled, and patted him on the back. "He's a cop, and a teacher, and there are rumors he has a third job."
"What?"
"He's broke. Needs the money. Something weird like that." Will said, trying to keep a straight face. He didn't succeed, and ended up laughing, almost hysterically.
This made Jack even more confused. It was absolutely hilarious to Will, unknown why to him though. "Ok, he has two, possibly three jobs. What's so funny about that?"
"I have no idea." Will said, his laughter ceasing. He wiped tears from his eyes, and looked back at Will. "Well, I should be getting home. Liz, want me to walk you home?"
"Sure..." She said, waving to Jack and Ana. She took Will's hand, and they left the park, almost abruptly.
Jack stared after them as he listened to their voices getting fainter. "That was... weird." He said, plainly. Ana nodded in agreement and sat back down on a swing. Jack followed her, sitting on the swing next to her. She started to swing, slowly at first, and then she looked over at Jack, a grin slowly growing on her face. "What?" Jack asked, mighty suspicious of that grin.
"I challenge you... to a swinging contest." She said, swinging her legs back and forth.
He raised an eyebrow. "A swinging contest? A swinging contest... I haven't had one of those since... well, I've only had one. And that was a long time ago... I was like, only five or six." He chuckled at the memory, and set his bottle of coke down in the sand. He sat himself on the swing properly, and pushed his feet off the ground. Soon they were both going pretty high, and Ana couldn't stop laughing.
"I guess it's a tie..." She said, looking over at Jack, their eyes never meeting though, as they were going at different times.
He
nodded. "A tie. Man, Usually I would keep going, just to prove that
I could win. But I think I'll give you a chance this time."
She
snorted. "A chance, eh? Well, we'll just see about that!" She
pumped her legs harder, and was soon going faster than he was. This
made him want to beat her, natural instinct he called it. But once
again, it was a tie.
"Fine..." Jack said, a chuckle in his voice. "It's a tie. Now, another challenge. See who can jump the furthest..."
She grinned. "You're on." She slowed down a bit, so it was an alright speed to jump off. "You first."
"Oh, now you're giving me the advantage... Well, alright. Here we go." He jumped off, landing half on his feet half not. He quickly stood up and brushed himself off. "You."
Grinning, she let herself off the swing. She landed a few inches further than Jack, and she jumped up and down. "HA! I beat you!" Doing her version of a happy dance, she laughed at him.
"Oh yah? Well... I might just have to... get you for that!" He stepped up behind her and wrapped his arms around her. She screamed, and wriggled her legs, but he didn't let go. He started to twirl around, her legs flying out. She continued to laugh/scream, as he twirled. He was getting dizzy, and tried to stop them from falling, but to no avail. They fell to the sand, laughing and squirming. Well, Ana was squirming, and they were both laughing. But neither of them tried to move. Finally when they stopped laughing, and they were both lying on their backs in the sand, looking up at the stars, Jack spoke. "Ana?"
"Yah?"
He turned to her, propping himself up on one elbow. "I had a lot of fun tonight..." He said slowly, looking her in the eyes.
"Me too... Jack, I had way more fun than I've had in a long time..." She smiled, and touched his cheek with her soft hands. She leaned closer to him, and pressed her lips against his, and they shared a soft kiss.
((Awww...))
Jack pulled away, and looked at her, a weird expression on his face. "What?" Ana asked, afraid that he didn't like her or something, after all.
"I just, wasn't expecting that, that's all..." He said, and leaned forward for another kiss.
