"I can't believe we're actually almost back."
"I know, it feels like forever since we've seen this town."
"Will, I've been doing some thinking."
He turned his head to look at her interested in what she might say. She had to choose her words very carefully in order to not upset him.
"My father does not know of our secret nuptials. I want to keep it that way for now. I have a plan and I hope you're willing to go along with it."
Will nodded but didn't say anything.
"We're going to tell him that while we were away you proposed marriage to me and that I accepted. We are going to have a proper wedding and oh I hope you're not to upset Will."
Will slowly broke into a grin. "Of course not. If this is what you want then who am I to change that."
He kissed her on the forehead and they hugged. The ship suddenly hit a large wave and Elizabeth felt nauseous. She ran to the side of the ship and let loose her lunch. Will stood behind her and slowly rubbed her back till she felt better.
"Emma, I need ya lass," her brother called.
She went over as Jack looked to see the two young lovers standing together staring at the approaching village.
"Emma, you've got a very important decision to make. You can both stay here with me and go out pirating or you can go with your daughter."
"As as much as I want to go with Elizabeth, I don't feel that I am ready to deal with Weatherby just yet. The wounds are still fresh on my mind and it's not the proper time."
"Very well then. You may go."
She nodded to her brother and looked once more at her daughter before going back into her room once more.
"It was nice to see you both again," Jack said giving Elizabeth a hug before shaking Will's hand.
"Try and visit us," Will said.
"Might be a bit difficult but I think we can risk it," Jack responded.
"I love you Mum," Elizabeth said giving her a big hug.
"I love you too Honey. I'll write."
"And I'll write back."
"Nice to see you again Father," Will said.
Bill gave his son a hug. "It was wonderful to see you as well."
Elizabeth came over and hugged him as well before they all made their way to the longboat. Gibbs was going to bring them ashore and then come back.
"Keep in touch," Jack said putting his arm around his sister's shoulder.
They climbed in and everyone waved to each other. They had been through a lot recently. Truths, discoveries but when it all came down to it everything seemed to be fine. At least for now.
