Later that evening after the crew and Jack were asleep Elizabeth found herself wondering about on deck listening to the waves and thinking about what she had let her heart do. When she was young and optimistic she would have said it was just her want for the human contact we all crave, but now at 21 she knew it wasn't. Whenever he was around she had butterflies in her stomach yet there was a since of stability with him she never felt with Will who was still a boy prancing around in a man's body. If only Jack could think of her the way she thought of him and if only she hadn't said yes to Will the man she loved but not the man she was in love with.
Meanwhile in the cabin Jack awoke to thoughts of the girl who should have been sleeping in the bed. The woman he, Captain Jack Sparrow, had fallen for, the girl who was also his best friend's girl. So instead of continuing thoughts of Elizabeth he went on deck to find her after discovering the bed was empty. He found her staring at the wheel in amazement.
"Love, would ye like to steer me ship?"
"Jack don't be silly, you would never let me."
"Aye, I would and Lizzie if ye do it enough I may let you steer the Pearl a ship that only I steer when it is in my control."
Slowly walking over so as not to frighten her he placed her hands on the wheel with his over them and began to move it. While to him it seemed a kind gesture to show he really did care, she knew that in the back of her mind she stood a chance with him for she was now the only person he ever offered to let steer the Pearl.
