Chapter 2: Man Time

Will hurried downstairs to greet him at the door, almost knocking a maid down on the way. He opened the door just in time to see Jack standing there with a fistup, about to knock on it.

"Jack Sparrow, isn't it?" said Will,acting as thoughhe didn't remember the man standing before him. This man had dark makeup lining his eyes, which were a dark, chocolate brown. He was just slightly shorter than Will, was wearing a raggedy three-corner hat, and had various trinkets hanging all around his dirty clothes, including beads in the hair, rings on the fingers, and a pistol and cutlass. He looked just as Will remembered him.

"An' you mus' be Turner," Jack replied, smirking. The two shook hands and gave each other a one-armed hug.

"What're you doing here?" Will asked Jack, stepping aside to allow him to enter.

"Jus' came to visit the newlyweds," Jack replied, examining his surroundings, "where's Elizabeth?"

"I'm not sure at the moment," said Will, "but you have a seat, and I'll try and find her, she'll be thrilled to see you I'm sure."

Jack obeyed and sat heavily on a nearby chair as Will left the room. He closed his tired eyes. It was rather trying being a pirate. It wasn't all just fun and games, especially when you're the captain. Jack loved it, but all the same, it was nice to have a quick break. He didn't plan to stay long with these landlubbers however, it was just sort of where he ended up. Besides, there was something going on with him, as usual, and he wasn't about to endanger his friends. Nor was he going to tell them just what was going on.

Will was searching the mansion for Elizabeth. He finally found her in the kitchen, eating.

"Elizabeth?" He said, "Someone's here you might like to see."

"Like who?" said Elizabeth, as she snacked on this and that.

"A pirate," said Will.

"A pirate?" said Elizabeth, "Why would I…" her face suddenly showed she understood, "Jack?" she asked. Will just smiled.

Jack's few moments of relaxation were suddenly interrupted by a scream of, "Jack!" and then a rather tight hug from Elizabeth.

"Woah darlin'," said Jack, "tryin' t' crush me ribs?"

"What are you doing here?" she asked as she pulled back from him, smiling.

"Oh, jus' comin' in for a visit to me favorite couple in Port Royal," said Jack, giving her his famous half-smile.

"Knowing him, it's not just a visit," said Will quietly to Elizabeth.

"I 'eard that!" said Jack, "And I'm tellin' ye the truth. Some voice inside me 'ead said let's go t' Port Royal, an' 'ere I am."

Suddenly, Elizabeth's smile faded.

"Um, I'm not feeling well all of a sudden," she said, "Excuse me," and she left the room quickly.

"Elizabeth?" Will called after her.

"I'm fine, you two just talk," she called back.

"She all right?" asked Jack, looking sincerely a bit worried.

"I'm…" said Will, "I'm not sure, Jack. Lately she's been…different. I don't get it. She's not herself. I've been wondering whether all women go through this," he looked up at Jack hopefully, as though hoping he'd know the answer to his wonderings.

"Well," said Jack, matter-of-factly, "all women are a bit addled ye know, 'specially 'bout once a month-"

"Well, yeah, I know that part," said Will hurriedly, "but it seems different lately, worse than ever."

"You know wot I think lad?" said Jack, "I think that bein' married fer, 'ow long's it been now?"

"Ten months."

"Right, fer ten months of marriage, I think you'd still be considered a newly-wed, and therefore, there's boun' t' be a bit o' trouble in paradise," said Jack smartly.

"Maybe…" said Will. He still looked concerned.

"I think I know wot ye need, son," said Jack, "a bit o' man time."

"Man time?" Will echoed him, completely lost.

"Yeah, time away from yer wife," said Jack, "ye know 'ow women are, they love us men but every so of'n they need to go and do their girlie things. Men are the same way. Sometimes we need a bit o' time with the boys, savvy?"

"Are you saying…spend time…with just you?" Will asked, looking worried.

"Sure, why not me, if there's any man 'oo knows 'ow t' 'ave a good time, it'd be Captain Jack Sparrow, right?" Jack answered, grinning.

"You're joking," said Will, who was smiling himself, "go out and do things with you? Yeah sure, that sounds like a grand time." He rolled his eyes and stood up as though to leave.

"Wot's that s'posed t' mean, eh?" Jack said, looking incredulous and standing up also.

"Jack, every time I go and do something with you, it doesn't seem to turn out well," Will answered, as though explaining this to a child.

"Oh come off it," Jack said, waving a hand as though what Will said was ridiculous, "'ave I ever given ye reason not t' trust me?"

Will raised his eyebrows.

"Okay look," said Jack, "wot if I promised ye that ye wouldn't get into any trouble, we'll jus' go out an' 'ave a relaxin' time wivout women, savvy?"

Will seemed to be considering. "But I can't just leave Elizabeth."

"Jus' fer one night of fun?" said Jack, "she'll understand, after all, 'as she or 'as she not seemed a bit sick o' ye lately?" Jack asked, raising an eyebrow.

"How'd you know that?"

"From the way ye been talkin', I guessed," said Jack, shrugging.

Will thought about it.

"I'll see if it's alright with Elizabeth," he said, "and then maybe we'll go."

"There's a good lad," said Jack, sitting back down.
