Pirates of the Caribbean – Love : It's Just Another Game We Play
By Princess-Pirate

Summary: The sequel to FEELINGS TOO DEEP TO ADMIT TO YOU.

Pirates of the Caribbean turns 21st Century. Will, Lizzie, Jack and the rest of the POTC crew are all College students in my modern day story of their lives. Will is in a coma due to an injury suffered by protecting Elizabeth. Now everyone is trying to pick up the pieces of their lives.

Pairings: Jack / Anamaria, Will / Elizabeth and a lot of other characters.

Disclaimer: All the characters, ships, and places in the Caribbean belong to Walt Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer (I wish). Some of the new characters are my own creations and therefore I have some ownership over them. The shopping centre is one in Cape Town; SA and I also don't own that name.

Warning: Rating will go up for blood, gore and suicide. Beware also for plotting and backstabbing galore.

A/N: Please read and tell me what you think. First read FEELINGS TOO DEEP TO ADMIT TO YOU, otherwise you may not understand what is going on in this story. All reviews and ideas on coming chapters are most welcome.

"Welcome back," said Elizabeth as she gave Will a hug.

Will smiled from where he held on to Jack. He was still weak but the doctors allowed him to return home. He just had to get a lot of rest and keep still.

Jack helped Will over to the couch and helped him to sit down.

Will pulled in his breath and pain could be seen in his eyes.

"You okay?" asked Jack.

Will nodded. "It's just my chest. It's still sore and sensitive when I move or breathe."

"It'll get better with time" smiled Anamaria as she sat down opposite him.

"Well I'm going to have to leave you two alone for a while" said Jack, as he looked at his watch "I need to go and finalise our plane tickets I'll have to hurry."

Will smiled at Jack and nodded.

"I'll see you later," he said as he kissed Anamaria good-bye and headed out the door.

"Elina's coming?" asked Will.

Elizabeth nodded. "She called this morning to say she has to come and see a client here so she's going to stay here. Besides, she was very worried about you. You scared all of us."

"I'm sorry" smiled Will.

"Want some coffee?" said Anamaria as she got up.

"Yes please," said Will as he settled down on the couch. He motioned Elizabeth to sit next to him and took both her hands in his.

Anamaria walked into the kitchen and returned with two cups of coffee a few minutes later.

"Thanks" said Will as he took it from her.

A knock at the door caused them both to lookup.

"I'll go get it," said Anamaria as she got up. He heard her talking to someone and then Lindsey entered the room with her.

"Hey" she said, "You look a lot better."

"That's only thanks to you," said Will "Jack told me what you did. I owe you."

"It's nothing," said Lindsey as she sat down.

Will nodded and then looked at Elizabeth. "I missed you," he said as he leaned closer and kissed her.

"I missed you too," Elizabeth said as she smiled and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, careful not to aggravate his wound.

"Now you take care of yourselves," Annabel said as she hugged Will and his friends "And keep out of trouble. I'll come and visit as soon as I have some time off."

"Can't wait for it" Will said as he hugged her again "And thank you for everything. I'll never forget it."

"You just get better and stay alive" Annabel said, "That's good enough for me."

"Don't worry Annabel" Mister Turner said as he placed a supporting arm around Will's shoulders "We'll make sure he rests and takes it easy."

Will nodded and then smiled at his father.

After the final goodbyes, everyone moved to board the plane. Lindsey would be staying since they needed to finalise the moving of Juliana back to Port Royale where the authorities will deal with her.

"Comfy" Elizabeth asked as she placed the pillow under Will's head.

They were flying home with Elizabeth's father's company plane due to the fact that Will needed to lie flat and wouldn't be able to sit up the entire flight back to Port Royale.

"Thank you" Will murmured, already falling asleep. This showed Elizabeth that he was still weak, despite him telling everyone that he was okay.

"You sleep," she said "And when you wake up, we'll be back home."

"That's nice" Will whispered as he drifted off into the land of dreams.

When Will opened his eyes he was lying flat in bed.

Elizabeth was bending over him, concern clearly written all over her face. "Oh Will," she said as she hugged him "I'm so glad that you're awake. I thought we were going to lose you."

"What happened?" he asked lifting his hand to cup her cheek. He looked to see an IV line in his hand. 'What was an IV line doing in my hand. The last thing I remember is falling asleep on the plane.'

"You didn't wake up when Elizabeth tried to wake you son" a voice said and Will turned his head to look at his father.

"What?" he asked confused.

"You've been unconscious for a week" his father replied "The doctors said you had a mild attack due to your injuries. No one knew it was going to happen."

"I'm sorry for worrying you" Will said as he squeezed Elizabeth's hand.

"It's okay" she said and smiled "You just get better and then we can have all the time together that you want."

"I will" he said and then settled back to get some rest.
