Firstborn

"I can't take this anymore!" Jack shouted at Will before jumping up in direction of the door, "I have t' go in!"

"Oh, no you don't, Jack!" Will tackled the pirate captain and pulled him back towards the chair, "Elizabeth said you had to stay here until-"

"I know!" Jack yelled, "But I can't stand hearin' this, mate! That's me wife in there cryin' her bloody lungs out!"

"Jack," Will said strongly as he pushed the pirate into the chair, "I know you don't like listening to her crying out in pain, but it will all be over soon enough."

"No, ye don't understand, Will!" Jack argued.

Will shook his head, "Of course I do, Jack."

Jack sulked, knowing the blacksmith was right.

"Do as Elizabeth told you, and take a deep breath, Jack."

Jack narrowed his eyes on Will, but obliged in following his instructions.

"Feel better?" Will asked as Jack seemed to calm down.

"Is me wife still cryin' out in pain?"

Will hesitated to answer as the obvious sounds filled the hallway.

"The answer would then be 'no' Mr. Turner, I don't feel much better!"

Suddenly Katrina's cries went quiet as a new, higher-pitched cry took its place.

Jack immediately jumped up again, pushing Will out of the way.

"No, Jack!" Will called out as he took hold of the pirate again, "You have to wait until Elizabeth or the midwife-"

"Mr. Sparrow," a short, elder woman suddenly opened the bedroom door, "It seems that I stand corrected, sir."

"I beg your pardon?" Jack asked in confusion, Will still holding him back.

"Your wife," the older woman tried to clarify, "She is indeed of noble blood, for she has produced for you an heir."

Jack's face screwed up into confusion as the woman closed the door.

"Say what?" Jack turned to Will.

"She said-" Will began but was quickly cut off by Elizabeth re-opening the bedroom door.

"Congratulations, Jack!" Elizabeth greeted with excitement, "You are now the proud father of a very healthy baby boy!"

"A boy?" Jack asked in surprise, "I've got a son?"

"Yes," Elizabeth laughed, "And as soon as he and the mother are cleaned up we will let you come see him!"

"Did ye hear that, Will?" Jack nearly shouted, still within Will's grasp, attempting to bounce up and down.

"Yes, yes," Will said letting go, "Congratulations, Jack!"
