(A/N) Last one!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POTC!

Elizabeth lifted her dress, as she carefully tiptoed across the deck of the Black Pearl. She made sure no one saw her as she slipped in below deck. As she opened the door to her cabin she stopped, breath escaping her. Will was sleeping soundly in her bed, he looked peaceful, he looked sound, she honestly didn't have the heart to wake him.

She sat next to him on the bed and gently pushed back the hair that had fallen over his eyes. Will stirred in his sleep, then slowly opened his eyes. "Elizabeth…I…" He started to sit up.

"No…" She placed her fingers over his lips. "Will I have something to say…"

"Elizabeth…"

"Let me finish." Elizabeth then settled next to him. "I thought that my father loved me…and I believe I was wrong, and I think my feelings towards him were also misplaced…The only person that has ever loved and cared about me, just for me, was you. I love you William Turner, and I want to always love you, and I never want to stop." Elizabeth then leaned down and kissed him. "But it will take time."

Will sat up and looked into her eyes. "Marry me." He said it quickly and suddenly, Elizabeth hadn't time to hide her excitement.

She then wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him. "Yes." She whispered in his ear. "I will marry you."

Will pulled her on top of him and kissed her and started fumbling with her clothes, suddenly he pulled back. "Why are you wearing a dress?" Will suddenly grew very suspicious. "Where were you Elizabeth?" Elizabeth leaned up.

"I went to visit an old friend. He is of upper class and to go showed up dressed the way I looked, wouldn't be good. So I bought a dress." Elizabeth then looked into his eyes, she saw jealously.

"He?"

"Yes Timothy Daulton was a friend I grew up with in London, you've met him. I have kept in contact with him since up until a few years ago. I needed a friend, and he listened. He offered me to spend the night and I did." Elizabeth then grew tense with anger. "Why are you so suspicious? Do you doubt me?"

"No…I…"

"I can see your anger. How can you dare doubt me?" Elizabeth asked, her heart breaking.

"Elizabeth, why would you go to him? Why not Jack? Why not me?"

"I needed someone who didn't have an opinion. I needed a neutral party. You nor Jack were it. Will, what are you doing? Why are you so defensive?"

"You are hurting…vulnerable…"

"What do you think I am some common street whore? Because I turned pirate it makes me flagrant with my ways? I truly hate to break this to you Will, the only man I have ever been with, was you." Elizabeth then pushed herself off the bed. "Get yourself secure Will, I would never betray you in any way." Elizabeth then stepped behind a screen and stepped out of her dress. She pulled on pants and slipped on a blouse. "Is this better?" Elizabeth threw the dress at Will and slammed the door as she left.

"What the hell is all this noise?" Jack bellowed as he peered into the hallway. All he saw was Elizabeth walk by him. "Elizabeth?" Jack quickly followed her out onto deck.

"Jack please…go away."

"I will not. This is my bloody ship, and if your going to wake me up at four o'clock in the morning…well it gets to be my problem." Jack then looked at Elizabeth and realized her blouse was barely buttoned. "Mind covering up dear…" Elizabeth scrambled with the buttons. "You look lovely in that brassiere, but it's still too early for me to ogle at them." The brought a smile to Elizabeth's face. "Come on tell Jack your problems."

Elizabeth told him about Timothy, about her make up with Will, and his distrust of her. "Want me to flatten him out?"

"No, I think he overreacted, but it still hurt." Elizabeth stopped when she saw Will.

"Will always wore his heart on his sleeve love, remember that's why I couldn't allow him on my ship." Jack then walked away to let Will and her talk.

"I'm sorry." Will said.

"I'm in no mood." Elizabeth said as she turned away. Will gritted his teeth, she was playing hard to get…well he could be just as demanding. Will grabbed her and hoisted her over his shoulder and took her to her room.

Will dropped her on the bed and leaned over her. "Elizabeth I am sorry, I didn't mean to be short with you. I am in no mood for arguing anymore, I would much rather like to make love to you." Will said his voice husky and sexy.

'How can I refuse that offer?' Elizabeth said to herself. She reached up and kissed him…and all was forgotten…

"Elizabeth…" Timothy knocked on the door of her room. "I brought some tea, it soothes the soul…." He waited a few moments before opening the door, and seeing she was gone.

Anger spread through his body, for some reason, last night he though Elizabeth would always stay with him…but she left during the night. Timothy had been in love with Elizabeth since forever, through her letters, and it only bloomed more since that visit a few years ago he made to her. She was a striking beauty, but she was also everything he wanted in a woman. 'Damn her and Will!' Timothy met Will once as he and Elizabeth were walking on the beach. Elizabeth introduced them, and he saw her look towards Will, entirely full of love and admiration, a look Timothy never got.

Well, it was time for revenge, and Timothy would have it out on Elizabeth and Will…making sure they were never happy…

Elizabeth felt safe in Will's arms, she always had, and always would. She nestled into his chest a bit more as the morning light shined on their faces. Will looked down on Elizabeth, smiling, he was happy, for the first time in a year, he had his Elizabeth, and he would be damned if he ever let her go again.

"Morning…" Will said as he kissed the top of her head.

"Morning? It's the bloody afternoon…"

"I know." Will smirked.

"Basking in your glory Mister Turner?" Elizabeth said with a mocking tone.

"It appears I am Miss Swann." Will then pulled her on top of him and began to kiss her.

"Will, I can't stay locked in this room forever. I have obligations." Elizabeth then began to get up. "I have to help Jack get the Pearl ready to go. This ship is half my responsibility."

"I won't keep you." Will watched her dress, and got up himself and kissed her before she left for the deck.

(A/N) I can't let everything be hunky dory…and the mystery around Governor Swann's death is still not over…
