Elizabeth smiled contently as she lay next to Jack. He was a wonderful lover and treated her like his pirate queen. She sadly sighed, thinking about her engagement to James. James was rich, had a high rank in the Royal Navy, and was kind to her. Any woman would kill to get his attention. He was really meant for Katherine, her sister, but James had already proposed his love towards Elizabeth several times. She knew that she had to be foolish to decline such an honorable proposal. She would be well off for the rest of her life; no worries about paying the rent , food, or clothes.

Unlike James, Will, here former fiance, was a simple blacksmith who couldn't afford to give her anything, but his love. At first, Elizabeth thought that it was enough for her, but thinking about it now, she thought it was a silly infatuation that adolescents had. Her heart broke when Will told her he'd be going to a trip by the Colonies, to get his blacksmith business better so he could provide for her when they would marry. However, sad news went around, saying that The Endurance, the ship that Will was on, had been caught in a hurricane. The Endurance was never seen again.

A few months after mourning Will's death, she crossed paths with a pirate, named Jack Sparrow, or Captain Jack Sparrow as he preferred to be called. She first saw him when she was walking around the outskirts of Port Royal. He was swimming in one of the lakes. She had never seen a naked man before and Will never tried anything but kiss her. She was attracted to him from the very beginning and his scars and tattoos only made her want him more. After a week of spying on him, and he strangely hadn't left yet, he caught her off guard.

Flashback

Elizabeth's mouth and eyes widen in shock. No man has dared to talk to her that way before, being the Governor's daughter and all.

"How dare you speak to me in such a way?!" said Elizabeth, turning red.

Jack smirked and got out of the water. Elizabeth turned her head in embarrassment. Elizabeth jumped feeling his breath on her neck surprised that he was so near her. She could almost feel his skin against her clothes, wetting them a bit, but she knew that he had his pants on.

"You were the one who was spying on me all week while I was bathing. Why are you acting so modest now?" he asked.

"I-I don't know what you're talking about," she stammered.

Jack's smirk grew wider. "Maybe I should remind you," he said, turning her around and kissing her. Her eyes widen in shock at the invasion. She pushed him back, slapping him hard in the face. He chuckled grabbing the side of his face. "I might have deserved that, but you deserve this," he said grabbing her and putting her over his knee.

Elizabeth shrieked as he pulled her skirts up and cried as he slapped her bottom. She had never felt so embarrassed before in her life. She gasped at every stroke and felt her bottom get sore.

Jack stopped suddenly when he started to hear her cry. He gently lifted her up and sat her on his lap. "Come on, luv, I didn't hit you that hard," he said drying her tears. He hated when women cried. It made him feel guilty and made him feel weak, which annoyed him. There was no doubt that she was beautiful, but the way she was dressed, he could tell that she was of high class. "Who are you, luv?"

"Elizabeth Swann," she sniffed.

"And why are you dressed so fancy, Elizabeth," he said, seductively.

Her breath almost left her. "I'm the governor's daughter."

"Well, Elizabeth, please let me show you forgiveness for my mishap." He cupped her face and kissed her, but this time it felt less rough, sweeter and more passionate. It started slow at first, building up to passion. Elizabeth moaned and wrapped her arms around Jack's neck. It has long since she felt like this, having another man care for her.

"Maybe we can continue this in my ship. My cabin can be quite cozy if there's a lot of… heat in the room," he said, when he released her lips.

Elizabeth knew that it'll be wise to run away and to never look back, but his eyes were hypnotizing her. It was almost as if his chocolate orbs were a gravitational pull towards him. "What's your name?" she asked.

He smiled. "I'm Captain Jack Sparrow."

End of Flashback

Elizabeth smiled remembering that sweet memory. She turned to side and saw Jack still sleeping. She frowned thinking that in just a few weeks, she'll be Mrs. Norrington. She wondered what Jack might do once he found out about her engagement.

A couple of days ago she promised him that she'll give up everything and run way with him, and sail the seas with him forever. Just thinking about being in a ship with rum-soaked pirates made her cringe. She was already used to being pampered, wearing beautiful dresses, around people who knew how to act and well mannered, and especially not with people under her class. Elizabeth thought back to Will, who wasn't exactly rich either, but he wasn't an outlaw that people wanted dead. If Norrington found out about this affair, she was sure to see Jack being hanged by the gallows.

Elizabeth got out of bed, making sure Jack wouldn't wake. She froze when she saw him stir, but he went back to sleep. He had a lot to drink so she doubted he'd wake until morning. She grabbed her cloak, taking one last look at Jack's sleeping form, and walked out the door.

Elizabeth went up to the deck and tried to find Mr. Gibbs. She remembered him when she crossed from England to Port Royal with Katherine and her father, but apparently he became a pirate. She could tell that the ship was already sailing.

"Mr. Gibbs," called Elizabeth when she spotted him.

He turned and was a bit surprised that she was up without Jack. "Miss Swann. What can I do for you?"

"I-I need one of the long boats. I-I have to return to shore," she stammered, nervously.

"But I thought you'd be going…"

"I'm sorry Mr. Gibbs, but you know that I can't live this kind of life," she interrupted.

Mr. Gibbs gave her a hard look and nodded. This woman will give Jack nothing but trouble, he thought. "Pull out the long boat for the… lady," he said, glaring at her.

Elizabeth gulped at the look and waited as the crew lowered the long boat. She could feel Mr. Gibbs' stare on her, but she didn't dare look at him.

"Johnson!" called Mr. Gibbs, making Elizabeth hump. "Take her to shore," he murmured and returned to the helm without giving Elizabeth one last look. She sighed and climbed to the long boat. She felt her heart ache leaving Jack, but a life with a gentleman is much better than a life with a pirate.


Katherine paced nervously as she waited for Father Francis to come in. Her mind was already made up. She will dedicate her life to serve God and only him. She didn't want people taking pity on her because James decided to marry Elizabeth rather than her.

"Katherine," said the priest with a warm smile as he came in.

Katherine smiled back and kissed his hand. "Hello, Father," she said.

"Please sit down, Katherine," he gestured. "What can I do for you?"

Katherine gave him a small smile. "I came here to enter the convent."

Father Francis' brow furrowed. "But weren't you going to marry Commodore Norrington?"

Katherine looked down at her hands, squeezing them together, which were resting on her lap. "I-I thought my life would be more enlightened if I became a nun," she said.

"You're lying to me, Katherine, I know you like the back of my hand. You were so excited to be marrying Commodore Norrington. What happened?" he asked. Katherine sighed, trying not to cry. "Just know that there is a God that knows and sees everything, Katie."

She groaned inwardly as he called her by her nickname. "James broke off our engagement," she started, "and wants to marry Elizabeth."

"I'm sorry, Katie. I really am, but that is no reason to become a nun. You are ready to be married and have a family. You have always dreamed of that."

"But with James," she said. "I couldn't imagine marrying someone else other than him. Besides, I know that if it weren't for my engagement to James, I would have become a nun," she said, sadly.

"I'm sorry Katherine, but I can't allow you to join only because you broke up your engagement. Let me finish," he said when she started to protest. "You will find another man to marry and you'll soon forget about James and be happy, but I can't allow you to become a nun."

"Please, Father," she said, getting on her knees and grasping his hands. "Let me show you otherwise. I'll work really hard and prove you wrong."

Father Francis sighed. "Alright, alright. I wouldn't normally do this, but I will allow you to join." Katherine smiled and kissed his hands, getting off the floor. "But first you'll have to prove yourself before joining. You'll wear the appropriate clothing and not your normal attire. You will clean floors, dishes, clothes, and cook dinner along with your daily prayers."

"Yes, Father, anything," she said, smiling. "Anything."
