Disclaimer: Blast. Disney can keep Elizabeth Swann/Turner. But why can't they just release Jack Sparrow to me? I promise to take good care of him, I do!
Elizabeth leaned against the side of the Pearl. The breeze blew salty through her hair. She pressed the heels of her hands against her eyes as she exhaled with frustration.
“Still letting those nightly melancholy hallucinations plague your daytime as well, love?” Jack said as he leaned against the Pearl, offering her a bottle.
“I just wish I knew where Will was. I do hope that he’s alright. I have never had these dreams come so frequently; so real.”
Jack moved closer to her, brushing a tear from her cheek. “All in time, dearie, and these doldrums will pass. Three months from now, you will see how your traitorous whelp is doing and his spawn will be able to see what his daddy does since he’s gone.”
“If this is your way of comforting me, Jack, you need to take another course in etiquette.”
She tried to move away from him, but his hand wrapped firmly around her wrist, pulling her back.
“Would you care to teach me, then?” he saucily asked, letting his eyes burn into hers.
