DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POTC

Elizabeth fell asleep, and slept till the next morning, Will would check on her, but did not wake her. Will focused on his son, he missed his mother, and he needed to know she was alright.

"Anamaria, would you take Jack to see Elizabeth?"

"Sure, are you sure you don't want too?"

"Yes, I don't want her to be angry in front of Jack." Anamaria then picked Jack up and walked into Elizabeth's cabin.

"Elizabeth, someone wanted to see you…" Elizabeth perked up with joy at the sight of her son.

"I'll leave you two now." Elizabeth nodded and Anamaria left the room.

"Oh, I missed you…" Elizabeth hugged Jack.

"Mommy, I wuv you." Jack said.

"I love you too. I love your daddy too."

"I wuv daddy."

"I love your daddy so much, and I love your little baby brother or sister…" Elizabeth placed her son's hand on her stomach, he seemed to grasp the concept. "…and I love you too." Elizabeth played as she tickled him.

"Where did you go?" Jack asked. Elizabeth did not know how to answer.

"I went away, but mommy is back and everything is all better, right?"

"Right!" Jack said happily. He then nestled himself in his mother's arms and fell asleep. Soon thereafter Anamaria walked in and took him to bed. Elizabeth sat there and thought about Jonathan's proposal, then she thought about her children.

"Elizabeth…" Will said as he entered her room.

"Yes." Her voice was cold, Will never thought she would be this way.

"I want to say something…I love you, and I want to stay with you and the children. I won't leave you ever, I promise." Will sat next to her in bed and held her hand, she pulled it away.

"Will, Jonathan asked me to come with him to Port Royal, I have agreed to go with him."

"Elizabeth you can't be serious?"

"You need time to decide, decide what you need. It is not what I need, it is about you. If you can completely with all honestly leave the sea behind you then, come home. If not, let me raise my children, I will not stop you."

"Elizabeth why can't you see?"

"It is not what I see Will, it is what I feel. Tell Jack I will be leaving in Port Royal with Jonathan."

Will hung his head in guilt, and walked out of the room without a word, he went on deck to get fresh air.

"Will…" Bill said as he placed his arm around his shoulder.

"She wants to go to Port Royal with Jonathan…Why can't she see that I won't run off on her?"

"Will, I don't believe that is the only thing that scares her, maybe the fact that you may never come home, she is afraid that you will die…I can't tell ye son, I don't know why she can't hear your words. Give her time."

"I don't know how much time I can give her…"

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

"Elizabeth?" Jack whispered as he walked in the cabin.

"Jack, come in…what do you need?"

"Will…"

"Did he send you?" Elizabeth said as he cut him off.

"No, Elizabeth the boy is heartbroken, he loves you, he is willing to give up what he was born to do for you. Why can't ye see where he is coming from?"

"Jack it isn't just what he says. His eyes tell the whole story…when he looks into the ocean he sees the world, in that world I don't think he sees a wife and child."

"Elizabeth, ye know what I think? I think you are so afraid that something is going to happen to him out there, that you don't want him to even go. Ye can't keep him locked up, he needs his freedom too. Ye can't live life that way…"

Elizabeth broke out into sob's, "I love him so much Jack, I can't…" She could not finish her sentence, Jack knew what she was trying to say, and he put an arm around her to console her.
