Shadow: I'm soooo sorry it's taking me so long to get the next chapter up. I've had essays and plays and field trips and other junk. But a couple of Thursdays ago I spent 3 hours outside writing this chapter. So it will be longer.
Jack:..Z..z..Z..z
Shadow: I hate you.
Will: Shadow doesn't own Pirates or the characters.
Shadow: Enjoy!
Rating: PG and PG-13 due to Jack's language and future fights
Blah- means Normal writing

Chapter 3
Will slowly opened his eye. A little confused about where he was. He looked around to see he was in his own room. He sat up rubbed his when his head snapped up.
"Jack!" Will screamed, remembering the events of the night before. He looked around again to not see the drunken pirate anywhere. Will quickly became concerned. He feared someone might have seen Jack and now he was in the hands of the Commodore. Will was about to jump of bed and run down to the fort when a load "Thud" was heard below.
Will got out of bed and slowly made his way down the stairs and towards the door that led to the smithy. As he opened the door a sword whizzed by his head and landed on the door frame. Will slowly turned his head from the door frame to the smithy. It appeared that Jack had gotten bored and decided to try every sword Will had made. Jack at the moment was about to throw another when he noticed Will.
"Mornin' Mate." Jack said happily
"Jack...you...swords...shop..." Will was so mad and amazed at the same time he couldn't form a proper sentence.
Jack looked around the shop at the swords sticking out of the walls and rafters. He turned and gave Will a sheepish grin." I got them to stick." he said. Not the answer Will wanted. "Jack!" Will began but was stopped when he heard a knock at the door.
Will didn't even wait to see who was at the door. He ran over to Jack and grabbed his arm. He dragged him to a closet and threw him in slamming the door shut.
"What the Bloody 'ell mate!" Jack cried from inside the closet.
"Shut up Jack or we're both in trouble!" Will hissed.
Once Will was positive Jack wasn't going to make a noise he walked over and opened the door. He was greeted with the site of Elizabeth Swan looking better then ever.
"Elizabeth..." Will breathed out.
"Good morning Darling." she said smiling to him. She walked past Will and looked at the shop. "Oh dear, what happened here?" she asked walking around. She was slowly walking to the closet.
Will made some long strides and landed right in front of the closet door. "Nothing! Oh nothing at all. Just um..." Will was trying to figure out what to say. Elizabeth gave him a look that demanded an answer. " um there was a little accident." Will finally said. Behind him he could hear Jack snickering at his answer.
'Well, it is true. Jack is a walking accident.' Will thought. Elizabeth gave a skeptical look, but decided not to press the matter.
"Well, I came to ask if you wanted to join me for breakfast." she asked sweetly.
'Oh Bloody great. Will's going to go off with his strumpet and I'm going to be left in the Bloody closet to roast.' Jack sarcastically thought.
"I'd like to Elizabeth, but I can't." Will said.
'Well, that's new.' Jack thought. The last time Jack had seen Will and Elizabeth together they were on top of the fort kissing the living day lights out of each other.
Elizabeth gave a sad look. "But why?" she pouted.
"I have some orders to do." Will said which was true. Elizabeth wasn't going to take that. "That's all you anymore, is make swords and take orders. I'm sick of having to stay home Will. I want to spend time with you!" she exasperated as she walked over and took Will's worked hands. "I know." Will whispered. "I want to spend time together too, but I'm busy." Will felt kinda bad for lying, but he had to say something.
Elizabeth sadly nodded and made her way to the door. "I guess I'll see you at dinner?" she asked hopefully. Will nodded. He would at least do that for her. "Sure you will." She smiled and left through the door quickly.
With a sigh Will let go of the door handle to the closet and walked to the window. He watched as Elizabeth walked up to her home.
Moments later Jack finally stumbled out of the closet. Happy to get out. He drunkenly made his way over to Will. "Good mornin' to you Darling." Jack sarcastically mimicked in a high voice. "Lizzy is such a..." Jack started but was stopped by the glare Will was sending him. "...wonderful person." he said. Will gave a heavy sigh and walked over to a sword stuck in the wall and yanked it out.
As Will was doing this Jack was watching him. It was a little confusing to see the blacksmith just end a conversation about Elizabeth the way he did. Jack gave a concerned look."You all mate?" Will stopped what he was doing. Did he really want to tell Jack about his feelings? " It's nothing.." Will finally said after a moment of silenced passed. Jack being Jack would have pressed the matter til the boy cracked but he decided against it.
"So mate, 'bout this curse..." Jack started. Yet again Will stopped what he was doing and turned around to look at the pirate. He leaned against a nearby table. The way Will was looking, Jack knew he was thinking.
"When do we leave?" Will said with a smile on his face. Jack flashed his famous grin and drunkenly made his way over to Will. "We leave tonight." He said while throwing his arm over the blacksmith's shoulder.
Later that night
Will had , had a very lovely evening with Elizabeth while Jack sat back at the shop bored out of his mind. Before Will left, he made a few rules for Jack to follow.
No throwing the expensive swords around
No load singing
No going out side
No touching anything in the shop
No drinking...
In the end the only thing Jack could really do was sit in a chair and breath.
Will entered the shop expecting to find it in ruins, but was surprised to find it the way he left it. "Jack?" Will called out as he threw his jacket in a corner. Jack's head popped out from the top of the rafters. " FINALLY!" Jack exclaimed as he jumped down. "I thought ye never come back." Will gave a smile.
" So lets leave this boring town for some fun aye?" Jack said as he dragged Will towards the door. " Actually..." Will started. " We have to go back to the Swan Manor." Jack gave a annoyed look. " What? Ye forget to kiss your bonnie lass 'night or sumtin?"
" No I need to tell her I'm leaving." Jack gave annoyed sigh. " Fine, lets just 'urry up mate. I ain't gettin and younger."
At the Manor
Jack and Will crept across the lawn to the front door." Uhh, Jack shouldn't we go the back way or something?" Will asked. Jack turned and gave him a mischievous smile. " No, we're goin to have a little fun first." With that said Jack turned and started pounding on the door screaming " We're here to steal your women!" Will knew he was going to get shot for that one. Surprisingly no one woke up.
" Awww. It would have been more fun if someone woke up.." Jack said a little disappointed. Apparently this wasn't the first time Jack pulled this little stunt. Will lead Jack to Elizabeth's window and both men started climbing the vine sided wall. Once at the window Will opened it and crawled, followed by a less then graceful Jack. Glancing around the room it wasn't hard for the Pirate/Blacksmith to find the sleeping women. Jack staggered over to the bed and flopped down.
" Jack!" Will hissed.
Jack ignoring Will lent over and kissed Elizabeth's nose thus causing the girl to wake up. Said girl jumped back a little startled at the fact there was Jack in her BED! " good evenin honey bun" Jack said in a sweet voice.
" Jack what are you doing here!" she hissed. Elizabeth glanced over and saw Will. "Will? What's going on.?" Jack sat up and slung his arm over Elizabeth's shoulder. " Willie and I are goin on a little trip." Ignoring the fact that Jack's arm was around her shoulder she looked at Will. "Is this true?" she asked. Will only nodded. " There's this other thing I have to help Jack with." Will said as he made his way over to her bed. " How long will you be gone?" she inquired as he removed Jack's arm. " It could be awhile there dear." Jack said. " Well, fine then I'm going with you." Elizabeth said. " NO!" both men said in unison. " Elizabeth this going to be dangerous. I don't want you to get hurt." Will said softly. " Will you and I are going to be married soon, and I'm sick of sitting at home. I need this adventure. Please." she pleaded. Will gazed into Elizabeth's eyes. He couldn't leave her. "Alright." he finally said.
" AAAAAAA..." Jack groaned out in annoyance as he fell back on the bed. He didn't want her to go. He didn't have time to babysit and he wanted to spend time just him and Will. Will ignored Jack and just kept staring at Elizabeth.
An hour later all three were making their way to a hidden cove where the Pearl was. The adventure to kill a curse had begun.
Shadow: OMG! That was freakin long. It got kinda crappy at the end. My apologies.
