I'll Take my Chances

Chapter 7

It was night in Port Royal and the the town was beautiful the moon was full, and the only lights were from the candles lit in houses. Elizabeth walked along the beach, the sounds of the waves travelled through her body like electricity. She wanted to sail the waves, she longed for the sea, she was so close yet so far, Jack was her chance for the freedom she wanted. She stopped at thought about how to get Jack out of jail, and then it came to her "Persuasion" she thought.

She ran to the jail, and got to the doorway, she pushed the door lightly and it made a small creaking sound. The guard heard this and ran to the door, and relaxed when he saw it was Elizabeth.

"Miss what are you doing here, there are dangerous men in this brig!" he placed his hand on Elizabeth shoulder and she looked at his hand. She looked him deep in the eye and seductively moved closer to him, shutting the door behind her.

"I can handle myself" she whispered into his ear. The soldier gulped.

"I'm sure you can, but it is my duty to protect and take orders" he moved his hand away from her, oh, damn it, its not working she thought

She moved up to him and landed an aggressive kiss on his lips sending him backing up into a jail cell. As she was kissing him she moved her hands over his body grabbing the key as she did. He broke the kiss and looked her in the eye, he was in shock, his eyes watched her as she backed out of the jail and closed the door

Elizabeth had locked the door. She looked to her left and saw Jack watching her

"Women... a man's weakness" he grinned wow, I would get locked in a brig for that! He thought.

"Well, everyone has a concealed weapon" she unlocked the door and Jack walked up to her

"Do I not get a kiss then?" she looked and him and gave him a cheesy grin and began to walk out side. Jack stood there in a sulk, then ran after her, as he passed the solider in his bring, he nodded and continued to run.

As Elizabeth got out the jail and went to walk left, as Jack ran out he pulled her by the arm.

"Wrong way luv" he dragged her until she ran with him, then they came to a wall. Jack went to jump off, but looked back and Elizabeth was not going to jump

"Are you coming" he looked at her knowing they did not have much time left.

"of course... its just, I can not jump in heals" he sat down and took off her shoes and threw them in the air. Jack grabbed her hand and picked her up, holding her in both arms.

"Do you trust me?" he asked

"Yes" she whispered , and with that he jumped and landed perfectly on his knees. He placed Elizabeth on the ground and she stood next to him.

"Wow" he grabbed her by the hand and continued to run

"Not my first time" he grinned.
