Summary: You know how Elizabeth and Will met on the ship. But what happened in the eight years before they met Jack Sparrow?
Disclaimer: Why must I keep telling you this? I don't own POTC!
Chapter 4- Breakfast On The Ship
Will awoke shivering. Why am I so cold? he wondered. He looked to the sides of the bed, the foot of the bed, then he saw all of his blankets on the floor. It had been a rough night; waves pounding and rocking the ship. "Stupid waves," he muttered. Will slowly got up, dressed, and headed upstairs to find Elizabeth there, who had been already dressed and awake for quite some time.
"So you're up!" she exclaimed when she saw him. "Good thing, I'm absolutely starving for breakfast!"
"So am I," he said. "What are we eatin'?" he asked. Elizabeth led him into a fancy room with a table filled with food, leaving his question unanswered.
"Wow! You get all of this?" he asked in awe.
"Well, it's also for all the important sailors like Lieutenant Norrington, and my father, and now it's for you as well." Elizabeth explained. "Did you expect to eat with the crew?"
"No, but I've never seen so much food before, for me nonetheless!" he exclaimed.
"Surprised, William?" Elizabeth's father said, walking into the room.
"Yes sir!" Will replied. "It looks so good!"
"I'm glad you're excited. But the food won't stay this hot forever. Come, sit down." the governor said as he invited the kids to sit down and eat.
As soon as everyone who was to eat with them arrived, they all dug in and began to eat. There was toast with jam and butter, hot tea, pancakes, slices of bacon, and all sorts of fresh fruits. Will and Elizabeth loaded up their plates with good food and dug in.
"Wow," Will said after the so-called feast, "I'm stuffed."
"May we be excused, Father?" Elizabeth asked.
"Go ahead," he replied, "just don't get into any trouble."
"Of course," Will called, while still heading out the door.
The Governor laughed. "Wonderful children, don't you think?" he said.
"Charming," the lieutenant replied. Absolutely charming, he thought to himself.
A/N: Whew, sorry it's so short, but I will have to cut it off there because describing that meal made me really hungry. So far, that's Will very first breakfast on the ship. How exciting! Anyways, I hope you guys liked, and don't worry, the next chapter will be up as soon as I can get to it. (Stupid homework.) Please, people, review review review!
To my wonderful reviewers:
LordLanceahlot: Ohhh, mysterious and intriguing fic...
RandirienIthilienMaiden: Yep, I decided to make the governor a pretty nice fellow in this one. I was always wondering what happened in those years so- ta da! Inspiration! More is to come! PS: Yes, perhaps Norrington does have a dignity overdose...
Lady of the Twilight Woods: Thanks, I like the idea too! I'll add more!
Now, off to find some food!
