Elizabeth couldn't sleep there just seemed to be a million things on her mind. For starters she had a wedding to be planning; she couldn't get the man that she had turned down a few days before out of her head. It was like he was haunting her and she had no idea as to why. He looked so hurt and betrayed when she told him that she had never seen him before in her life.

"Why does this bother me so much," she questioned herself with a frown on her face. "I honestly have never seen that man in my life before that day. Oh he was a gorgeous man though."

The more she thought the more her mind was on overwhelmed and the more she thought about him the more the face of the man became familiar to her.

"This is obscured I need to stop thinking about this man when I am set to marry another. It's not right for me to be laying in my bed thinking about a man that is not my betrothed."

She rolled back to her side and closed her eyes, she eventually feel asleep and had a nights rest full of dreams about the man she turned away.

Tia finally came out of the cabin to join the crew, many thought it was because the light showed her for who she really was and rather stay indoors till night fall.

The night filled the sky with the most wonderful display of stars. The Pearl was on route to Port Royal and the crew of the Pearl was most alive at night. There was singing, dancing and music they all enjoyed!

"Yo ho! Yo ho! A pirates life for me," went on in the back ground as Jaclyn spotted Will off by himself not enjoying his time with the crew. She decided that she would try to go and comfort the poor boy and offer her services of listening to him. She found a full bottle of rum sitting on top of one of the barrels and grabbed it.

As she approached him as she did she extended her arm to offer Will the rum.

"Thank you but I am not one for rum," Will replied once he saw her and the rum.

"Aye, not even when you are having a low time in your life?"

"Your right, why should I remain miserable and heartrending when I could have a belly full of rum and mind that is happy for a brief moment in time," he reached for the bottle and took a couple swigs. He handed it back to her and she as well took a couple swigs.

"I know that we have only known each other for a few days now but I am a good listener if you need to talk to someone," Jaclyn said as she looked over the edge of the ship into the now dark Caribbean.

"Thank you Jaclyn but if you don't mind I be needing sometime with my own thoughts."

Jaclyn nodded as if to agree that he did, "I understand completely. You know where to find me if you need to talk."

She turned from him and began to walk away.

"Jaclyn," Will called out to her.

"Yes?"

"Could you leave me the rum? It feels like it is going to be one of those nights where I be needing it."

Jaclyn nodded and went back to where he stood and handed him the rum.

"Take care Will, you are starting to worry me a bit. Just don't become a rum soaked deck hand like the rest of them."

He chuckled a bit and replied, "thank you."

Jaclyn walked away from him worried about the poor soul. She decided that it was time for her to retire to bed and went below deck to the Captains quarters. As she opened the door she saw a table that was filled with food.

"Hello love," a voice greeted her.

"Did you do all this for me," she questioned as she looked around the room.

"Yes I did darling. You deserve it after offering to help me and my friends; you could be risking your own life to help. You may be in jeopardy when it comes to me as well," Jack said to her as he walked to where she was standing. He placed his hand on her back to guided her to the table.

"Jack what do you mean by I may be in jeopardy when it comes to you," she said as she looked at him with a frown on her face.

"I am a man that is easy to fall for. I am not blind love I see the way you look at me."

"I'm not blind either! I see the way you look at me Mr. Sparrow. I know what you are thinking every time you see me. I see it in your eyes. That is where you have problems with women. You're afraid if you in a relationship then you wouldn't have your precious freedom any longer. Well Mr. Sparrow you have me all wrong."

Jack looked at her dumbfounded, he has never had a women speak to him in that tone before and what she said was true. She knew him better than anyone else and they had only met a few days before.

"How do you do that," he questioned her as he walked towards her.

"How do I do what?"

Before she could get any more out Jack had already approached her and pulled her in to a passionate kiss. They stood there kissing one another then Jack pushed her back to where the bed was and pushed her onto the bed.

Jaclyn didn't know what had hit her. She was enjoying the moment very much but a part of her couldn't let it last longer than this. She wouldn't allow another man to ruin her life.

She pulled away from Jack, "I can't do this," she pushed him off of her.

"What's wrong love?"

"I just can't do this, not now."

She got up from the bed and walked out of the room looking for a place to go. She found a cabin that was empty and pushed herself against the wall and feel to the floor. She put her hands to her head and began to sob. There was no way she was going to allow something to happen to her like that ever again.

"I will not do this to myself," she muttered.

The tears felt like fire running down her face. There was feeling inside her that could not be described she liked Jack there was possibility of her falling in love with the man but there is no way she could allow that to happen. She eventually got herself to calm down and feel asleep laying on the floor.

Jack left his room after a while to look for her and apologize for being to forward when he stumbled upon her sleeping on the floor. He bent over and picked her up and carried her back to where they were before and placed her on the bed. He climbed in beside her and fell asleep.
