Ok, so it's been a while and this isn't the original Chapter 7 that I had written but hey, it keeps the story going. Sorry for the delay of like a year but I grew up and now I'm growing down! I miss this story so here goes.
Chapter 7- The Quest Begins
They group returned back to the Pearl, thoroughly pleased with the progress of their day.
Sally and Evie were glad to have their effects, iPods especially. Sally's cell phone, despite how much signal it had, refused to send messages or calls.
Both we're somewhat disappointed but there was someone who wasn't very sad that Sally couldn't contact her boyfriend from the future.
Jack got his rum and began his pursuit of Hermione Granger which began to fail miserably but she seemed to enjoy his persistence.
Sally and Evie parted once aboard the ship. It seemed that the Commodore was sorely missed in their absence. Brad was off with the Patil twins as usual so Sally had the deck alone while the others enjoyed their rum and sexual games.
Sally missed home but enjoyed being on the see with her apparently not so fictional dreams. Her mind was here but was her heart here as well?
Soon, Sally was joined by a familiar face.
"Ello Will." She smiled. "What brings you here?"
"I do not fonder of rum like our friends."
That made Sally laugh, "Nor do I my friend."
She turned her gaze away from his chocolate eyes that made her melt and returned her thoughts to the endless sky. "So many stars." She whispered.
"Yes, they're beautiful."
She nodded in agreement, unsure of what to say now. The silence engulfed them and sounds from below deck erupted in a familiar high pitched squeak. Sally couldn't help but laugh. "Evie and the Commodore are apparently having their fun."
Will blushed. "Yes, so it seems." Sexual relations seemed to be touchy for him, so was Elizabeth.
"Are you alright, Will?" Sally asked catching his awkward vibe.
"Yeah," he coughed. "I think so. Sally can I talk to you about something?"
"Sure."
"Its Elizabeth, ever since I was 12 I loved her. And for a while she's been, well, obviously not returning my love. I understand it but now I think I'm beginning to have feelings towards someone else."
"Well that's not necessarily bad. The best way to get over heartbreak is to have someone else there in your heart to replace the hurt. That's how I do it, and it's the easiest way to live again." She replied.
"Yes, so I've found. Elizabeth no longer harbors my heart but I fear the person I want to give it to will not be here forever."
"I see. If you fear that your love will be wasted then don't do anything but if you have faith the love with flourish then take what you can."
He nodded and leaned against the side of the boat. "Hmm." He said thinking. "Now I have to think this over. Thank you, Sally, I'll talk to you in the morning."
"Night." She said as he headed below deck. Sally drifted off on deck, under a fishing net.
The next morning Evie crept up to the deck to find Sally sleeping. She sat next to her. "Sal, Sally, SALLY!!"
She jumped up and nearly screamed. "EVIE!! What the hell bitch?"
"Calm down, I was just gonna ask about how your night with Turner was."
"Oh." She rolled her eyes and layed back down. "He just wanted advice. That's all."
Just then, Jack bounded up onto deck yelling about how he wanted to make way. Will came up after him with the locket. "Right. We need to head for Singapore. The new pirate lord there will know our next location. Destiny always leaves clues."
"Mr. Gibbs. We have our heading." Jack yelled to the groggy, hung over first mate.
