Syrianna managed to get the three of them to finally sit down with one another. Now, getting them to talk would be the easy part. But getting them to talk in a civilized manor would be a different story. Syri sat down next to Jack just in case she needed to hold him back or block him from Will if need be.

Jack’s look was of pure hatred as he stared at Will. He could feel Jack eyes bearing into him as if they were beams of fire searing through his flesh. Will gulped nervously and started to fidget. He knew that it was wrong of Jack for what he had done to Elizabeth but he couldn’t help but feel a little intimidated. Especially with that woman beside him, Jack could get away with practically anything.

Elizabeth looked at everyone in the room. Will who was sitting beside her sat there nervously as Jack stared daggers at him. She knew that he didn’t want to be in this situation but no one can help that now. Then she glanced at the woman across from Will. She looked so young but when you gazed into her eyes, you could tell that she experienced much. Syrianna made Elizabeth anxious. She would stare at the other and have a smirk on her face like she knew something that they didn’t. To most, that would be merely a cover up but with Syri it was different. Her eyes mocked Lizzie and it was nearly unbearable.

Lizzie then shifted her attention to Jack. She noticed how Jack almost immediately stopped staring at Will to gaze at her. He stared at her with those big chocolate eyes that held so much emotion only to people that knew what they were looking for. A frown was planted firmly on his face and it seemed like it was going to stay there for a while. Lizzie noticed that he seemed paler than from when she saw him before. He was still quite dark but Elizabeth saw right through that. He looked sickly to her. Especially in his eyes. Anger, hatred, longing, guilt… She knew that Will was the cause for the anger but the guilt? She knew that was her own doing. Elizabeth let a tear trickle down her cheek as Jack continued to gaze at her.

Elizabeth took a deep breath and sighed, “I guess I’m going to have to be the first one to speak.”

Syri motioned for her to continue.

Elizabeth took another breath and went on, “I left because Jack was supposedly betrothed to a woman named Annabel--”

“No I wasn’t.” Jack interrupted.

Elizabeth gasped.

“I never did and I never will.”

Elizabeth nearly came to tears, “Don’t lie to me Jack Sparrow. Don’t you dare.”

“I’m not lying!” He wanted to stand but Syrianna’s hand on his leg told him to keep his seat. “Annabel has been traipsing after me ever since the day we met. She’s a tramp! Ye remember Giselle? Well, I was in a fairly good relationship wit her until young Annabel comes along and decides to tell her that I’ve been sleeping around wit other woman which fer a fact I was not doing for once.”

Will stood up, “I don’t believe you.”

“It’s not any of ye’re business anyway, eunuch. Get out of the conversation!” Jack hissed.

“You see, it is my business because I’m planning on marrying Elizabeth.” Will said matter-of-factly.

Jack stood up and got in Will’s face, “Does Lizzie know about your plan then, aye?”

Lizzie stood up as well and got in the middle, “Enough! Yes I knew. Hell, I was the one who brought it up.”

Jack gave her a hurt expression like he couldn’t believe she just said that she was thinking of marrying the eunuch again.

“Jack what did you expect me to do? To me, we were technically over.”

Jack didn’t know how to answer to this but suddenly, a little light bulb went off in the back of his mind. It was quick thinking and completely truthful.

“But ye have ta understand something Lizzie. Why would I go and marry someone when I had ye?” He smiled.

Elizabeth was slightly taken aback by Jack’s words but Will wasn’t having it.

“Don’t listen to him, honey. He only has a quick tongue, that’s all.”

Jack gave him a scowl, “It’s the truth ye eunuch.” He then pushed Will and aside and dropped to his knees in front of Lizzie. He shuffled through his pockets before he pulled out a small box. He opened it up and dumped out whatever was in side into his palm and hid it from her.

“Lizzie…I know we’ve been through some crazy times together, but most of them were wonderful. I understand tha’ I’ve screwed up yet again but I luv ye wit all me little black pirate heart.” Jack grinned as Lizzie giggled.

“There are only a few people in my life tha’ I’ve opened up to. Ye’re one of them Lizzie. Now…could ye do me the honor of becoming me bride and opening up to me?”

Jack opened up his palm to reveal a small silver ring with an emerald in the middle that was exactly the same as Jack’s but smaller and slimmer.

Elizabeth beamed and let the tears fall freely. She tried to say something but nothing came out so she just nodded continuously. Jack grinned and stood up to be met with Elizabeth who hugged him and kissed him over and over.

They stopped for a breather and grinned silly at each other.

“I’ll take that as a yes, aye?” He whispered to her.

Elizabeth grinned, “Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!”

Jack laughed and spun her around as he kissed her.

Syrianna couldn’t help but grin at the now engaged couple in front of her. She never thought she’d see the day when Jack would be so in love. She glanced over at Will who was still in the same position he was in when Jack proposed. Syri let out a little chuckle before going out to the crew to tell them the news.
