Author's Note: Based on a story starter in the Challenges forum, so I don't lay claim to that. Jack/Will pairing.

NOTE: The theme for this one is Jack's Hat. Remember to leave a review and some theme suggestions.

Disclaimer: Funnily enough, nothing is mine, just the plot. I like to play.

"Will, you simply cannot have me hat, mate." In the late afternoon sun, Jack Sparrow was sitting against the mast, hat tipped low over his face.

Will, standing over him, crossed his arms like a small boy. "But I want it."

Jack chuckled. "Spoken like a true pirate. I am, however, the Captain. So I get to keep me hat, savvy?"

"I could simply reach down and take it," Will said with a small smile.

Jack looked up then, an eyebrow raised. "Oh, really? Yer really suppose I'd let yer?" He stood up then, grinning at Will. "No chance, young Turner."

Will grinned back. "I happen to have a little... leverage, when it comes to you, Jack Sparrow."

Jack's hands were on his hips. "Oh, really?"

"I happen to know..." Will said, and he leaned close, whispering the words, "I happen to know that... you... are very... very... ticklish..." And then he slid his fingers around Jack's toned waist and tickled, causing the pirate to shriek with uncontrollable laughter, thrashing in Will's arms. His hat fell from his head and Will caught it, running off.

"Will Turner!" Jack shouted, dashing after him. "I'll get even with you if it's the last thing I do, whelp!"
