Chapter 9: Don't Give In or Give Up
"Lizzie, come out of your cabin luv, we're going ashore." Elizabeth shot up, she must have fallen asleep.
I have to tell Jack about what I found out…
She sat up and stumbled to the door. With one last glance at her cabin; she sauntered out of her room. She found Jack in the corner of the ship preparing the longboat along with Gibbs and Marty.
"Jack, can you come here for a minute?" She timidly asked reassuringly rubbing her arm.
"Can….argg it wait luv?" Jack replied trying to bringing the boat down to water level.
"No, Jack this is really…" But she was cut off by Gibbs,
"Elizabeth, can you please help us get the boat in the water?"
She sighed, there was no winning on a pirate ship was there?
She coyly nodded her head and reached for the rope next to Jack.
She tugged as hard as she could, but no use the rope wouldn't move and to top it all off she pulled so hard, when she let go, she fell over. She bravely arose from the hard wood, and began to tug on the rope again.
This time it moved a little more, but not as much as she would have liked.
"Need help Lizabeth?" Jack inquired gazing at her intently.
She couldn't let Jack show her up, she was just as stubborn as he sometimes.
Gibbs was watching from a few feet away, he himself was trying to get the damn boat into the bloody water. But he saw the way Jack looked at her and the way he so kindly asked if she needed help.
Gibbs saw his eyes soften whenever he looks her way. He sees the way Jack's body tenses when she touches him in the slightest way.
But Elizabeth acts a certain way around Jack. Whenever he looks her way, she seems to almost lose her footing and if every time she didn't have something to hold on to, then she would have. When he smiles his devilish smile, she melts you could see her face fall and her heart ache for him and the lust in her eyes are clearly present.
Gibbs also noticed Jack and Elizabeth took night watch together every night. Odd. But Gibbs has some explaining to do once they get to the island that is…
I hope they're not onto it, they're too madly in love to realize what it truly means, Right?
He shivered at the thought of them figuring it out and continued to pull of the rope to hopefully get the boat in the water.
"Are you sure you don't need help pet?" Jack asked now walking over to her
Don't give in Elizabeth, Don't give in…
"Here." He placed his hands over hers and with both of their strengths combined; they managed to put the boat in the water.
When Elizabeth turned around to thank Jack, he was naught but a few centimeters away and if she made one false move, her lips would melt with his.
"Lizzie…" He mumbled her name and she could feel his warm breath ghosted across her lips.
"Lizzie…" He repeated again and this time his lips brushed hers ever-so-slightly
"Jack…I…The crew." She tried to point out that the whole crew was watching their captain getting "Frisky" with her but Jack didn't seem to care one bit. In fact, he seemed down right giddy.
"Jack please-" But she was cut off by Jack whispering in her ear,
"Fine Lizzie, have it your way but if we're to be alone on that big island…"
She flushed, knowing what he meant.
She in turn whispered back,
"Yes Jack, if we're to be alone."
He flashed his signature devilish grin and stood up straight. He turned around to face the crew,
"well what are you looken' at you scabrous dogs, we're going ashore."
Elizabeth heard a collection of ayes erupting from the crew as they all scurried to the boats.
"Ladies first." Jack said gesturing for her to get in before him.
She nodded her head and stepped into the boat, but then she remembered something.
When Jack and I are alone, I will tell him, but I don't think he's going to like it one bit…
Okay that's just a little fill in chapter and yes they are on their way to the island and here is a little sneak peek
"Jack, that note was not written by Lilly's lover."
