Chapter 23:
Questions Unanswered

A few moments later Elizabeth had persuaded me to tell me the story. We both sat in my cabin and I held out my arm finishing "…. and that's how I got this scar, luv." Elizabeth stared at my scar on my arm while I got up and sat down on the bed she was sitting on. Elizabeth's mouth was still open from shock so she said flustered "I cannot believe Barbossa actually did that to you!"

I gave her a small smirk and then put my arm around her while saying "Aye, that did happen 'Lizabeth." I paused as I pulled her head closer to mine and whispered, "Do ye be knowin' what also happened?" Elizabeth's lips shut tightly and she shook her head while muttering through her closed lips "No, tell me".

I pulled her face closer to mine, and our lips almost touched now. I gave her a small smirk and whispered "That. I'll be tellin' ye in the mornin', luv". Elizabeth bit her lip frustrated as I began to lie down on the bed that we both sat on. Elizabeth asked half frustrated and half anxious "Oh come on, Jack. Please tell me!"

I smiled at her and began to pat my chest gesturing that she stood lay down next to me. Once she did I gave her a small smile and teased her "In the mornin' Lizzie." Elizabeth pouted her lips as she spoke "Jack, please!" I sighed and pulled her head onto my chest as we were now both laying down on my bed in my cabin.

I began to twiddle a few strands of her hair while continuing "Ye know Lizzie. Ye must learn th' word patience. Patience be th' act or power o' calmly or contentedly waitin' fer somethin' due or hoped fer; forbearance if you may." Elizabeth began to chuckle and she asked "Wasn't it you that wanted me to throw away all the things I learned in Port Royal?"

My eyebrows narrowed and my eyes traced her face as I answered "Aye, that be true. But that still doesn't change th' fact that I won't be tellin' ye…" I leaned in to kiss her lightly on the lips and then I closed my eyes quickly while saying "Night, luv." Elizabeth rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath "Bloody Pirates". I chuckled and whispered "Nay Lizzie. Jus', bloody Jack".

A few hours later Elizabeth had woken up and I had unfortunately had woken up as well. I jumped out of bed and asked her "What it be luv?" Elizabeth bit her lip disappointed that she had awaken me. She reached out her hand and placed it on my cheek and whispered, "I couldn't sleep. I need something to drink that'll help me sleep."

I yawned once she finished and looked around my cabin for something until I found "I've got me rum?" Elizabeth shook her head and whispered back to me "I'm going to go to the storage room…" I bit my lip thinking about the last time I was in the storage room; I had seen Bootstrap Bill. I gulped and said, "I'll come with you". I then lit a candle that was near a table that stood beside me bed. Elizabeth chuckled and whispered, "I'll be right back. You don't have to worry."

I thought about her statement and concluded that the Pearl was safe. Wasn't it? I shook that evil thought out of my mind and walked towards the doorway and grabbed her a lamp that held a candle and handed it to her. She smiled at me bashfully for a few seconds so I asked confused "Why be ye starin' at me like that Lizzie?"

Elizabeth gave me a small grin and replied "I'll tell you why, when you tell me what you were supposed to tell me before, but didn't!" She kissed my cheek quickly and rushed out the door and I called after her and she asked "What is it Jack?" I took a few steps towards her and said "You forgot somethin' luv".

Elizabeth smiled as I grabbed her hands and leaned in closer to kiss her but then I stopped an inch away and whispered, "Bring me back more rum". Elizabeth rolled her eyes and hit my shoulder lightly. I gave her a small grin as she walked away from me towards the storage room.

A few minutes later Elizabeth had opened the door to the storage room and walked in holding the lamp. She looked around the room to find some water and she spotted something that looked like a wine rack so she bent down and pulled out a rum bottle. She then heard someone behind her say "Your caught!" Elizabeth jumped and dropped both the rum bottle and the lamp in fright.

She turned around quickly and now that it was pitch black she was starting to get scared. She asked in panic "Who is it?" All of a sudden she felt a hand on her shoulder and the light of a candle began to flicker. She gave a sudden sigh of relief as she saw Will in front of her. She took a few breaths in and out trying to calm her down as Will joked "Your caught! You're trying to steal Jack's rum!"

Elizabeth chuckled at Will's joke but then hit him on the shoulder lightly saying, "You scared me!" Will nodded proudly as he sat down on a chair that was near the edge of the ship. Will then asked her confused "What are you doing down here Elizabeth?" She smiled at him and replied "Oh, ugh. Looking for some water. I couldn't sleep."

Will nodded and said back "Oh, the old drink water go to bed trick. Clever". Elizabeth nodded and asked him confused "…. and what are you doing here Mr. Turner?" Will shrugged and replied, "Well, I was hungry. But that was about an hour ago. I stayed here because I found this." Will then showed Elizabeth a knife and he explained, "I found this right where I am sitting, and look at its sides. It has the initials W.T. on it".

Elizabeth looked at him confused so he gestured to himself and said plainly "William Turner". Elizabeth gasped and asked, "So this is your knife?" Will shook his head and whispered "No. But I think it's my fathers. Will, Bootstrap Bill. It all makes sense!" Elizabeth gave him a small grin but then asked confused "But wait… what would it be doing here? On the Pearl, if your father is bound to Davy Jones' ship?"

Will shook his head confused and whispered, "That I don't know. Is it possible that he was here?" Elizabeth shook her head and said "Of course not! It is impossible, isn't it?" Elizabeth was starting to become uncertain, she had no idea how the knife had gotten in the storage room and she had no idea if the initials were just a coincidence or not.

Will shook his head and put the knife in his pocket and changed the subject "Anyway…" he looked around the room and found a canteen of water and passed it to Elizabeth while continuing "Are you glad that you chose this life with Jack?" Elizabeth looked at Will uncertain and uncomfortable, so he chuckled and said back trying to hide the pain he felt inside "Just answer. You don't have to worry about me!"

Elizabeth smiled and walked over to him while replying still a little uneasy "Well, to be honest. I am, I truly am". Elizabeth watched Will's face turn pale so she decided to look down at her hands. When she did she saw the ring that Jack had given her and she remembered the special power it had. So she took a deep breath took a step closer to Will and asked him "Do you still love me?"

Will was taken back by the question and he thought about it for a second but then answered "No, not all Elizabeth." Elizabeth then felt the ring tighten around her finger and so she gasped but then Will got up and continued this time more seriously "I'm not allowed to anyway." He took a few steps towards the door of the storage room and she shouted out "Will! Wait!" But Will did not wait for her, so she followed him up onto the main deck where Norrington sat they're drinking.

Elizabeth shouted at Will "Will! What is wrong?" Will turned around furiously and shouted, "What is wrong? How could you even ask that Elizabeth? I cannot stand to watch you and him together! That is why when I find my father, I will leave and never ever see you again!"

Will took a few steps towards the edge of the ship and Elizabeth grabbed his hand and said, "You can't do that Will. You and I have been friends ever since child hood." Will shook his head and whispered disappointed "Friends? Are you telling me you never ever did love me?" Elizabeth bit her lip and Will grabbed her by the shoulders and pulled her up against him while shouting, "Did you ever?" At that moment a voice behind Elizabeth and Will asked, "What be goin' on here?" It was my voice.
