Disclaimer: Disney owns it, not I.

A/N: This has been edited and re-written for Hide the Rum's PotC week. Baby and Proposal are actually two separate one shots, and I wrote them in a different order than they should be sequentially. The events of Proposal happen way before the events of Baby - so Will and Elizabeth were married long BEFORE they had a child. Get it? Got it? Good! These come with a Willabeth fluff warning :)

This story was written after CotBP, and the only way it could make sense is if you pretended DMC and AWE didn't happen. Enjoy!

Baby

Elizabeth Swann Turner's eyes fluttered open when she felt the gentle pressure of her husband's lips upon her forehead.

"Good morning, Elizabeth," Will greeted her softly. She pushed the covers back, stretched, and sat up in their bed.

"G' morning," she yawned. After wiping the sleep from her eyes, the dark and rugged features of her husband came into focus. He was, after all, a pirate and he definitely looked the part. Will had just returned from a sailing 'excursion' with Captain Jack Sparrow. However, he still kept up the smithy when he was home in Port Royal, which was most of the time. Elizabeth knew Will could not live with himself being a pirate if he did not hold an honest job as well…

"What did you want to do today, my love?" Will asked her as he gazed at her, his rich chocolate eyes reflecting the adoration and respect he felt for his wife. "Now that you have me all to yourself…" She chuckled and snuggled closer to him, loving the feel of skin on skin.

God, he loved her. Elizabeth had always possessed divine beauty, but when he had returned to her the previous night, there had been something extra special about her. She seemed to glow from within. But Will had chalked it up to the month-long separation; perhaps he had forgotten how radiant his wife really was.

"What do I want to do today?" She pretended to think hard, but then decided not to keep him in suspense. "I want to stay right here with you, and hear about your latest adventure on the Pearl. After all, you didn't really do the tale justice last night." The mirth was shone in her eyes as Will's cheeks tinged red. They had been quite busy the previous night rediscovering each other's bodies and had had little time for serious talk.

"It wasn't too different from the other times, to be honest," Will admitted, putting an arm around his wife, and holding her close. "Jack is always on a hunt for some treasure or another." Will paused, frowning, as if remembering something unpleasant. "Although, every once in awhile, he would insinuate that something happened between you two when you were marooned on that island two years ago…" This time Elizabeth really did laugh.

"Will! You don't really think that we…that I could ever…" she couldn't finish her sentence; she was practically guffawing by now. Jack Sparrow, a romantic interest for me? How absurd!

"You tell me," Will muttered, miffed that she was not giving him a straight answer. "You always did have an, um, fascination with pirates ever since I've known you." Elizabeth immediately quelled her laughter when she saw the muscles tighten in Will's face, which was never a good sign. That only happened when he was angry, or on rare occasions, when he was jealous. Elizabeth knew she had to put a stop to Will's unfounded worries, once and for all.

"William, look at me." That caught Will's attention - he knew Elizabeth only called him by his Christian name when she was very serious. Will turned over in bed so that he was facing his wife, and looked her straight in the eye. "Nothing happened between Jack and I on that island, other than the fact that I taught him the words to a favorite song of mine." She smiled at the memory. Will still did not look completely convinced, so she went on. "I did not betray you then, nor will I ever. I love you, Will, and no one else." The blacksmith-turned-pirate let out a huge sigh of relief.

"You don't know how long that has been bothering me. But even though we weren't courting then, and even though it's not my business, I had to know. I just wasn't sure if Jack was the type that would've taken advantage of you."

"Oh, Will!" Smiling, she regarded him with a mixture of love and sympathy, as only a wife can. "Can't you see that Jack teases you because he knows he can get a rise out of you?" Will grumbled a bit.

"Hecalmeahyou."

"Sorry, dear, I didn't catch that," Elizabeth told him cheerfully, enjoying her normally confident husband's discomfort. Will growled in frustration.

"He called me a bloody eunuch, all right?" It took all the strength that Elizabeth possessed not to laugh at that comment – the last thing Will needed right now was an injury to his already wounded pride.

"Well I know that not to be true, and so do you!" She said pointedly. "Why do you let it bother you?"

"I dunno." The blacksmith-turned-pirate shrugged. "Jack says he will always assume that I am a eunuch until I can prove it to him otherwise…" Will sighed. "How am I supposed to gain the respect of the crew if Jack has made it known I am missing my, well, you know!" He blushed, and Elizabeth just shook her head in amusement. "It is getting right annoying when the crew members approach me – probably on Jack's orders - asking exactly how my 'condition' has affected my singing voice!" His wife regarded him thoughtfully, whilst biting her tongue to keep from giggling.

"Well, if it bothers you all that much, you can inform Captain Sparrow that you are definitely not a eunuch. For how could a eunuch be a father?" Will nodded, for that made sense.

"You're right, Elizabeth. I'll tell hi- WHAT?" Finally, Will understood the meaning of his wife's statement.

"Will, we are having a baby!" Elizabeth's eyes shone with happiness, and Will could only gape at her.

"We…we are?" he said stupidly. She nodded, giving him an ecstatic grin, as she was no longer able to speak. "We are!" Will crowed, his young face alight with happiness. "I'm going to be a father!" He squeezed her tightly, being careful of her abdomen. "I love you," he breathed, capturing her lips in a soft kiss. "I'm so lucky to have you as the mother of my child." She sighed contentedly against him.

"I love you too. I'm so glad you are finally back," she whispered, her breath hot on his ear, causing him to shiver. "I have been bursting with the happy news, and I waited to tell anyone else because I wanted you to be the first to know." Will frowned, feeling guilty for having been away so long.

"When did you find out?"

"Well, I saw the doctor on Thursday, so I found out two days ago," she admitted.

"Two days?" Shock registered on Will's fair face. "Then why didn't you tell me last night?" She smirked cheekily at him.

"I wanted to wait for the opportune moment." Will tackled her, and she yelped in mock-pain. Elizabeth knew that Will would make an amazing father when the time came. He would encourage their son or daughter to be the best person they could be, and teach them right from wrong. He would support them in all of their future endeavors. And he would love them with all his heart, as he did with her. Yes, parenting would not be without its challenges, but Elizabeth was confident that together, they would meet those challenges head on.

The Turners didn't come out of their room until dinnertime, as they were too busy celebrating.

The END! Hope you loved.
