Chapter 7

Rules in the Law of attraction

SO SORRY THAT IT HAS BEEN TAKING ME FOREVER!! SCHOOL IS EVIL!! I AM UPDATING AS FAST AS I CAN!! HAVE MERCY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Evie had left Elizabeth to herself to mingle with other guests. Evie decided to mingle with other guest called family herself, so the piratess went over to her brother and stood besides him, studying his frowned face and his clenched jaw. "Well James, I take it this must of come as a shock to you", she said softly, while placing her hand on his arm. But James just continued to ignore her, his icy eyes were focused on the glass he was holding as her swirled the wine around in the caulker, praying that the movement would hypnotize him and take him away to a tranquil place where his baby sister was still innocent and proper and the only pirates in her life would be the ones in the books that she used to read when she was just a sweet little girl. "You can't ignore me forever you know?!", she snapped as she tugged on the helm of his jacket.

But James didn't reply, he just stood there staring straight into his glass. Evie sighed, "James I know you're mad at me and you are mad about my interest in Jack.....' absentmindedly her eyes scanned the room and found Jack; he was standing near the buffet, busy biting a piece of a gold statue to check its authenticity , and then she saw him shove the item into his jacket, while he gazed around making sure his actions remained unnoticed to the people surrounding him. As his dark eyes met hers, he winked at her and licked his lips seductively.

Evie held her erupting giggle to herself. Then the familiar voice of her brother broke the special moment with Jack, so her eyes met James' cold ones. "Oh no Evie, I am not mad..........I'm furious", as an ominous vein began popping out of his forehead again. A butler had passed by and James picked up another glass of wine and chugged it. "I would say that I would never had expected a visit like this from my sister", as he picked up another glass and chugged it as fast as he had drowned the prior one.

"James are you purposely trying to get yourself drunk?", as she spoke in awe, watching her brother chug the wine as if it were water. James just ignored her and noticed a woman in the crowed of people. Her long curled black hair pulled in a large green bow matching her emerald dress, her olive skin dark and smooth, her large black almond shaped eyes wandering around the crowd.

Evie noticed James was staring approvingly at the female. She smirked, "You like her James?", as James snorted into his glass choking. "Evie what are you talking about?", trying to contain embarrassment. "That pretty little Spanish girl standing over there....all by herself....looking so lonesome", she whispered. "You should go talk to her", determinately grabbing hold of James' hand to take him over to the girl.

"What?!!" No!! Evie are you mad? Wait.....don't answer that", getting out of her grasp. Evie huffed. "James I saw you looking at her! You should at least go and introduce yourself".

"No I will not Evie, she probably already has thousands of suitors at her beck and call", turning away taking another glass of champagne to drink. Evie just sighed and shook her head but as luck would have it James didn't have to go to the girl - the girl came to him. "Buenas noches senor", he voice sounding like warm velvet, thick and rich. James once again choked on his drink as he slowly turned around to find the woman that he had been admiring talking to him.

Evie left silently, trying not to break the moment, but she hesitated for a moment and turned around so she could study the woman's profile. That Spanish woman looked awfully familiar, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Walking over to Jack he immediately took her into his arms and held her close to him as he quietly sniffed her hair, breathing in her scent, the scent he had missed for so many weeks "Jack.....?"

"Mmmm..........yes pet?", slowly running his hands up and down her arms. "See that Spanish woman that James is talking to over there?" Jack stopped right then and there. He looked over to where Evie pointed to. "Shocking.......", he grinned. "Usually when I hear the word woman and Norrington combined in one sentence my laughter is triggered. Since I don't believe our dear Commodore can be socially involved with the finer gender in that way. Usually he's left by the woman and all there's left for our dear Commodore to do is roll over, wallow in his self pity, and cry himself to sleep at night......." as he smirked.

Evie sighed, "Jack you're so mean, you forget he IS my brother!" she slapped his arm to regain his attention. "What I meant was, that Spanish woman, doesn't she look familiar to you?" Jack squinted his eyes and looked at the woman, deep in thought. "Pet, ya don't expect me to remember all of the women I had throughout ma years, or do you? I mean, my list of woman could very likely be even longer than my list of crimes.....", grinning as memories evolved in his head.

Evie hit Jacks arm a bit more forcefully this time, "No you idiot! I meant have you ever seen her before? I feel like I've seen her before somewhere but I can't put my finger on it", staring at her brother and this woman get along. Jack began rubbing her arms once again, "Pet, forget about yer brother, forget about the woman, it's just ya and me now, just you and ole Jack.....", Evie had to suppress a giggled when Jack pinched her bottom.

James at the other hand, was having an inner debate, since he didn't know what to say to this woman, he was struck by her beauty and her eyes gave him back the shyness he had overcome, since he was little. He felt his cheeks flourish when she looked at him and just when he was contemplating what to say, she spoke. "Well are you going to say something, Senor or this the whole night?" James cleared his throat, took another sip of champagne to boost his self-esteem, and talked, though his voice let him down every once and a while, "Good evening my lady. I hope you are enjoying the party?"

"Oh yes Commodore this party has been very enjoyable, and the present company is very promising.....", as she took a glass of champagne off the tray the servant presented her also. "Wait......how did you know I was the Commodore?"

"Well, Commodore many ladies have told me about you so I decided to see for myself if everything they have said is true", as James got lost in her smoky chocolate eyes, "Well, milady', he said while his ego was stroked. 'That depends on what you have heard......"

"That you are going to wipe out every pirate in the entire ocean, and that you are a brave and good man, who has fought and defeated undead", she said smiling at him.

James' eyes lit up after hearing what she had just said. It was all true according to him and he felt shiny and warm inside. The fact that he could hear admiration in her voice only added to that. It was nice, very nice actually. "Yes it is all true", as he tried not to smile.

But the woman saw straight pass him. "May I be so bold as to enquire what be the name of such a fair lady?", James said, starting to feel the affects of the alcohol take its toll on him.

"Mi nombre es Liliana Marquez, Senor", she giggled as James kissed her hand. Though it really wasn't necessary, since he was to do that in the beginning, but now as his mind started fogging due to the consumed alcohol, he shoved manners to the back of his mind, oh what the hell. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Marquez" James looked up from her hand and looked past her for a moment only to find Jack Sparrow and his sister cuddling and whispering in each others ears.

"Why that little bastard, fondling my sister like that in public!!! They should be ashamed of themselves!!!!! Their acting like children!!!!", as James once again starting freaking out as he remembered everything that happened back in the fort rush back into his mind.

"Commodore?", James was broken out of his thoughts by Liliana's velvety voice. "Oh I am most sorry Liliana", as he began apologizing. "No it is perfectly fine Commodore.....why don't we go for a walk, I've heard the Governor's gardens are divine.......", as she elegantly took his arm and led him outside into the cool crisp air.
