Here's another story. I thought it was sweet when I wrote, but whatever. I wrote it in 5th period when we were reviewing for our test. This, I guess, takes place after the third movie. I haven't seen the movie yet, but it'll only makes sense if put it here, so... Anyway, enjoy. Please R&R!!!!!

Again: None of these characters are my own.

Elizabeth's Betrayal

Jack sat in his cabin on the Black Pearl, facing Elizabeth. He grinned at her in his mischievous way.

"I'm not sure I should be here. Will will wake up and find me missing, it'll break his heart," Elizabeth said.

It was just days before Elizabeth was to marry Will. In the days before she had become distracted. She had thought of Jack almost nonstop. She began to realize her affections for Will were deteriorating. He wasn't the man she had fallen in love with anymore.

She had decided just hours ago to pack her things and slip away. She would become a distant memory. Earlier that night she had found herself running down the streets, a bulging suitcase in her hand.

It wasn't until she reached the docks that she realized that she had no idea of where to go. She didn't know where to find Jack or if she would ever find him. But she sensed he would be near her.

As she slowly turned to walk away a voice called out, "Where ya goin', luv?"

Elizabeth had spun around her heart fluttering. There was Jack, leaning against a wall. Elizabeth had rushed to him and they had embraced. They had rowed to the Pearl and now found themselves in Jack's cabin, sitting closely together.

Now the ship was quickly sailing from Port Royal, never to return again.

A single tear slid down Elizabeth's cheek as she stared at her knees. She still wore the long, flowing night gown she had slept in for those few hours.

Jack put a comforting hand on Elizabeth's tightly clasped ones. "You wouldn't have come if you still loved the boy," he said softly.

Elizabeth smiled nervously and embraced him. "I'm so confused, Jack," she whispered into his ear.

"You should rest, Lizzy. And you should realize the choice you made is final, you can't go back. Not now. Besides there's nothing to worry about, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow." With a grin he stood up. Elizabeth stared up at him. "Come, Lizzy. I'll show you your sleeping quarters," he said, holding a hand out to her.

Elizabeth grabbed his hand and stood up. A cold fist gripped her heart as they headed to her sleeping quarters. Had she made the right choice? Did she truly love Jack? Could she live with what she had done to Will?

"Here we are," Jack said as he pushed open a door. Elizabeth walked inside and turned to Jack. She lightly pecked him on the cheek and smiled at him. She was sure then that she truly loved him. Elizabeth began to shut the door but Jack held it open. Elizabeth looked at him expectantly. "I knew you'd come to my side eventually." He turned and walked back to his cabin.

Elizabeth went to her cot with a wonderful feeling. She knew she'd be happy. After all her whole life she had wanted to meet a pirate. Now she was in love with one and he loved her.

She fell asleep with the satisfying thought that she was in love and loved back.
