"Morning" Elizabeth said as she opened the door.
"Morning" Jack replied as he, Anamaria and Annabel walked into the room.
"Where's that cousine of mine so that I can congratulate him?" Annabel asked as she gave Elizabeth a hug.
"He's still sleeping" Elizabeth replied "He's had a rough night. His legs were cramping and the medication made him sick. He slept till about ten and then he was sick again. I think we finally got some sleep at about seven this morning."
"Should we call a doctor?" Jack asked concerned.
"Let's give him some time" Elizabeth said "I have Doctor Woodbourne and Doctor Peterson's numbers. I'll see how he is when he wakes up and then I'll call them and ask them what the following steps should be. They may be able to recommend a doctor here in Paris."
All three other people nodded and the Anamaria turned to Elizabeth.
"We're going sight-seeing. Do you want to come with?"
"Thanks you guys" Elizabeth said "But I think I'll hang around until Will wakes up. I'll phone you when he's up to going and we'll meet you somewhere."
"Okay" Jack said as she looked at Elizabeth and tried to smile.
Elizabeth looked scared and he didn't really want to leave her alone.
"I'll call later to check up on you" he said as Anamaria and Annabel walked to the door "And don't hesitate to call me if anything happened or needs to be arranged."
"Thank you Jack" Elizabeth replied.
"Take care of yourselves" Anamaria said as Elizabeth closed the door behind them and they left the hotel.
Elizabeth trudged back to the room, getting a glass of water along the way. She walked to the bed where Will was still fast asleep. She gently sat on the edge of the bed and shook him.
"Will" she said as she shook him again.
He moaned softly and his eyes fluttered open. "Lizzie" he smiled.
"I'm sorry to wake you" Elizabeth said "But you need to take your medicine. Are you hungry?"
"A little" Will said as Elizabeth helped him to sit up and take his pills.
"You just relax back and get some rest" Elizabeth said, "I'll order us something to eat."
Will sighed and shivered slightly as Elizabeth pulled the covers from him and started to massage his legs again.
When Elizabeth looked up a few minutes later Will was fast asleep. She decided to leave him be for the moment and walked into the sitting room to call Will's father and ask him what she should do.

"Morning James" Amelia Norrington said as she walked into his room.
"Mother" James smiled as he gave her a hug "What did the doctors say?"
"Two days angel" his mother replied "They say you can go home in two days' time."
James sighed and relaxed back into bed. In two days he will be back home and able to plan how to get rid of Will and that little tart for good.
Adrian had called him yesterday evening to say that Juliana boarded the plane to Paris on time. She would call them once she has settle to get her instructions from him.
James smiled again to himself. Revenge tasted sweet, but succeeding will taste only better.

"This is so cool," Anamaria said as she leaned over the railing to look at Paris.
Jack nodded as he wrapped his arms around her waist. "Very beautiful" he murmured as he nibbled her ear.
"Jack" Anamaria squealed as she tried to get out of his arms "Stop tickling me."
Jack only smiled and turned her in his arms, kissing her passionately.
Anamaria leaned into him as he wrapped his arms around her again.
"Any news on James?" Annabel asked Lindsey as they saw Jack and Anamaria kissed.
"He's being released in two days" Lindsey replied "But they're gonna keep him guarded. If he tries anything we'll know about it."
"I just hope they get enough rest this vacation" Annabel replied "Will sure as hell needs it."
"How is he?" Lindsey asked.
"Well Elizabeth called to say that he was okay and that she had spoken to the doctor back in Port Royale. She says to lower Will's medication and see what happens. If it doesn't help she's going to give Elizabeth the number of a doctor here in Paris, who will examine Will."
Lindsey nodded and took a sip of her coffee. She just hoped that no more blood would be spilt because of love.

"Thanks Lizzie" Will said as he walked from the shower "I feel much better."
"Glad" Elizabeth replied as she held him his shirt and walked to the sitting room to bring in their lunch.
"I don't know if I can eat" Will said as he looked at the food.
"Just a few bites Will" Elizabeth said "It will help your stomach settle and then you can drink your medication. Doctor Peterson said we can lower the doses and stop a few to see if it helps."
Will nodded and sat down on the bed.
Elizabeth handed him a plate and he smiled at her.
"Thank you Lizzie" he said as he squeezed her hand "You do so much for me."
"It's because I love you silly" Elizabeth said as she started to eat.
Will took a breath and then started to eat as well.
Elizabeth watched as his eyes began to droop after about twenty-five minutes. She took his plate and helped him to lay back down. "Sleep" she said.
Will nodded and was soon fast asleep.
"Sleep tight love" Elizabeth said, "You know I'll never let you face this alone. I'll be by your side, step by step, all of the way."

"So this is Paris" Juliana said as she picked up her bags and walked out of the hall.
"Miss Perez?" a voice said and she turned.
In front of her stood a man, about her age with blonde hair and green eyes.
"Yes" she answered as she smiled at him.
"I'm Fernando," he said as he held out a hand "Monsieur Norrington has arranged for me to pick you up and show you around."
"Why thank you" Juliana said as she handed him her bag and followed him from the building. "Where are we going?"
"I must take you to your hotel and then be available when you need me" he said as he opened the door for her.

"Enjoy your trip?" Will asked as he came walking into the sitting area.
"Very much" Jack replied "How are you feeling now?"
"I'm better" Will said as he sat down next to Elizabeth "Besides, I have one fine nurse looking after me."
Elizabeth smiled and rested her head on Will's shoulder.
Life was wonderful and she looked forward to spending an eternity with Will at her side.
