PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN

A FATHER RETURNS

Chapter 7

A couple of days went by and they were almost to Tortuga. That day the sun was shinning and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Elizabeth looked out into the deep blue water. She thought about home and her father then carefully placed her hands on her stomach, but feeling as though someone was watching her she quickly turned around and saw Jack Sparrow staring at her.

"Shouldn't you be at the weal of the ship?" Elizabeth asked with a smile.

"I should, but its my break," he told her.

"Then who is?" she asked a little confused.

"Anna Marie of cores," the captain said with a smile.

Elizabeth laughed.

"You know, something is different about you," he now said getting serous and changing the subject.

"What do you mean different?" she asked a little nerves.

"I'm not sure, so why don't you tell me ay," Jack said stepping a little closer.

"I don't have to answer to you," Elizabeth said turning her back on him.

"Then I could guess," Jack said still pushing the subject.

Elizabeth looked back at Jack and glared at him. She wanted him to go away and leave her alone. But she knew he wouldn't do that. It wasn't Jack.

Jack looked at her and thought for a moment before he said anything. Then it came to him. "Are you Pregnant?" he asked.

Elizabeth's eyes widen as he said that and her face went red.

"Then you are," Jack said a little excited.

That's non of you business." Elizabeth said getting angry and she started to walk away from the nosy Pirate.

"Does Will know?" Jack asked still not dropping the subject.

Elizabeth stopped walking.

"So he doesn't know," Jack said in a low voice so no one but Elizabeth could hear him.

She turned towards Jack and gave him a dirty look then quickly walked away from him. Jack then turned away and walked back to the weal with a smile on his face and took control of the ship. By noon all were tired buy Jack keep on going. Finally Will came up by Jack to talk but he didn't look too happy.

"What's wrong Will?" Jack asked his friend.

"Its Elizabeth," Will said, "Something is wrong with her, she's not herself."

"Really," Jack said not looking at Will now.

Will looked at Jack with a questionable look. He looked hard at the captain and knew he was hiding something because of the glisten in his eyes.

"You know," Will suddenly said approaching the captain.

"Know what?" Jack said acting confused.

"You know what is bothering Elizabeth." Will said raising his voice a little.

"I might," Jack said looking at Will.

"Then tell me," Will demanded.

"Its not really my place to tell you these things," Jack said.

"Since when did you care about that," Will asked him getting angry.

"Since now mate," he said smiling and looked back out to water.

Will sighed and then began to walk away. He was getting no ware with jack and he would not continue arguing with him. He was too tired. But Jack felt a little guilty, which didn't always happen.

"Will," he said turning to him once more.

Will turned around and looked at him. Jack took a deep breath then spoke.

"Elizabeth's pregnant." Jack said looking strata at Will.

Will looked at Jack in disbelief and didn't say a word.

"I see the signs and when I confronted her she was very defensive," Jack told him and he turned the weal a little to the left.

"I can't believe it," Will said in a low voice almost to himself. "Why wouldn't she tell me?"

"She's afraid," Jack said to him.

"Afraid?" Will said confused, "Afraid of what?"

"Well from what I can see she doesn't want you to worry about her, she wants you to be happy and have fun," jack said trying to act funny.

Will looked at him and didn't think he was funny.

"Sorry mate," Jack said looking away from him.

Will turned around and walked back onto the main deck. Elizabeth was no ware to be found. She was probably in a room resting but he didn't really care. The more he thought about what Jack had said the more he became angry with her.

{How could she do this,} he thought, {How could she put herself and the baby in danger.}

He was now very worried about his wife and his soon to be chilled. So Will looked for Elizabeth and found her lying in the bead. Will came to her side and placed his hands gently on her right arm. Slowly she turned around and looked up at Will with tears in her eyes.

"Why are you crying?" he asked her.

"I don't know," she answered him wiping the tears away.

Will looked at her and took hold of her hands.

"Elizabeth," he said looking into her eyes. Elizabeth looked at him. "I know about the baby," he told her.

Elizabeth pulled away from him.

"Jack told me, please don't be angry with him," Will told her getting up and sitting on the bead.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you before, I just didn't think it was the right time." She said now sitting up in the bead.

"I know, and I understand, but by coming here you put yourself and the baby in great danger," Will said concerned for her.

"I know," she said looking down.

"You'll just have to be careful," he said and kissed her forehead.
