Still the first say, so I only have one comment, 27 hits, and one favorite. Come on! I want more!

"It's been a week…" Will mumbled. The woman was still unconscious. For that whole week, Will had stayed by her side. He stared at her tanned face, his gaze not leaving her. For all anyone knew, he had not left the cabin.

He studied her shoulder length black hair, threaded with a few beads, and her blue bandana. He stroked her cheek with his hand. The longer he stared, it seamed scarier. SHE wasn't scary looking! No! She was beautiful! She really looked like…

She started to cough & gag. He jumped up, unsure of what to do.

He ran out of the cabin, and out on deck, "JACK! SHE'S AWAKE!"

Jack looked around and pointed to Elizabeth, helping the crew, "Of COURSE she is, mate! She's helping us out more than you are!" He guzzled down a bottle of rum.

"NOT HER!"

"His NEW lover! The rum girl in the cabin!" Elizabeth called, mocking Will, but he ignored her.

"Ahh! Her!" Jack wobble, drunk from all of the rum that was in those kegs that the woman floated on, as he walked down the stairs. He held onto the railing. "Can she wait & wake up tomorrow? I don't wanna deal with anyone today. The bloody bird is driving me to drink."

"Well, nothing wrong with that" Gibbs laughed.

"Not as bad as the undead monkey!" Cotton shouted. Jack waved them away.

"JACK!" Will shouted.

"Fine, fine! I'll come! I won't like it though…" Jack hobbled after Will, who was running back to the cabin.

Once they got back, she was on her bed, looking around, dazed. Her eyes rested on Will. He tensed, and he had the same feeling from when he locked eyes with Elizabeth for the first time, but Elizabeth liked Jack, right? She smiled. Will could almost feel the sparks flying. Her warm brown eyes seamed so inviting, as if they were calling to him.

Jack studied her for a moment. His eyes grew wide, knowing he was in trouble with her… 'I knew I should have checked to see if it was her!' He tried to sneak to the closed door.

The woman's attention snapped from Will to Jack. He sighed, knowing the moment was too good to last or go any further.

"Jack?"

"Umm… No?" Jack put his hand on the door with the other on his hat.

"You know Jack?"

"Boy, you do some incredibly stupid stuff."

She got off her bed, pulled a gun from her belt & shot right next to Jack's head. He looked back, slightly surprised, "You know what I came here for." She grinned.

"I don't even know you, miss." He bowed & tried to leave again, but she shot at his feat. Jack jumped.

"Don't be polite with me Jack. Hey… What happened to the Pearl?"

"It…"

"Don't change the subject, Jack!"

"But…" Will started. The woman cut him off by adjusting her aim. Her finger layed on the trigger.

"Jack, give me my hat!"
