What Matters the Most
by Melissa
Elizabeth stared at Captain Barbossa with fear in her eyes, something inside of her told her not to trust him and now they were face to face,He had that God aweful smirk upon his face
"so Miss Swann You see I happen to know You are in love with Jack" He smirks "and I suppose i'm to blame for that Perhaps leaving you two on that island was a mistake" he gave her another look
"But lets see Just how much Jack cares about you" with that she felt his hands tie her to a rock at the top of a cliff overlooking a waterfall ,she shuddered "what,What are you doing to me?"
Barbossa eyed him "well you see Jack owes me a ship,whether or not he'll give it to me is up to you" she looked at him fearing for her life "how?" was all she could muster in saying
He smirked "well you see Poppet its either You or the ship if he really loves you he'll give Me the ship if not He'll leave you here to die,you see in a few short hours this will all fill up with water and this here rock
I've tied you to will plummett to the bottom of the water fall with You on it" With that he walked away.
a warm tear filled her Eyes this wasnt how she envisioned her life ending,Did she Love him? yes with all her heart, did he love her back? she didnt know and thats what was scaring her,would he choose her over his ship or would he leave her there to die,She tried to wriggle free from the ropes but to no avail,she screamed for help but what difference did it make no one was around they were all looking for Jack,this was it this was How her life was going to end.
********
After they had found him Barbossa reached him first "Hello Jack where is my ship"
Jack smirked "why Hello so nice to see you to and Uh its My ship"
Barbossa smirked apparently all was going according to his plan "Oh we'll see about that" Jack just raised an eyebrow at him "You see Jack I Have something of value to you its Either the Treasure or the ship its your choice"
having no clue what He was talking about Jack looked at him "no treasure can be more important to me then this ship"
Barbossa eyed him evilly "Oh I beg to Differ" he smirked at him "what if I say the Treasure is a woman" Jack shuddered could he mean?? No God forbid anything happen to his Elizabeth,He looked around
he noticed that she was the only one not present in the resurrecting him ,he frowned "Wheres Elizabeth what have you done with her?"
Barbossa laughed a little "AH so You do care about her I will tell you were she is if You give me the Pearl"
Jack surrendered the Pearl was important to him YES But not as important as Elizabeth,she meant the world to him and he wasnt about to lose her "Fine take the Pearl Just tell me wheres Elizabeth"
Barbossa smiled he had gotten what he wanted "she's on the Edge of the Niagara Waterfall" he smirked a little giving Jack his cocky evil grin "tied to a rock"
Jack knew exactly what that meant and ran to her rescue.
************
"standing at the edge of this cliff
Gravity being what it is
I'm afraid that I might stumble cause i've never been this high"
as the Water began to rise up around her, Elizabeth become more frightened,this wasnt how her life was suppose to end,Not before she told Jack that she loved him,not that it mattered ,she Sighed
she was so sure he'd pick his ship over her after all she of all people knew how much that ship meant to him,this was the reason she was shocked when she looked up to see him there
"Hello Love" her heart started to race "what are you doing here"
He smirked a little at her "Is that any way to greet me?" she couldnt speak his face softened as he gently touched her "I'm here to rescue you"
she looked up at him "you,You chose me over your ship"
He looked back at her as his lips found hers "of course Lizzie I can always get a new ship You I could never replace"
"I'm so carried away by this place
and the simple beauty of your face
and the walls start to crumble
and I'm helpless to fight"
She surveyed her surroundings,Now that she was with Jack and He had every intention of getting her out of the situation
she smiled it was a really beautiful place,she grinned at herself or maybe it was just the company,she smiled as he kissed her
Now that they were alone and without the stares of scrutinizing crew members he was free to tell her how he felt "I Love you Lizzie"
"cause You cant ask the sun not to shine
and no ones ever found a way to stall time
Oh baby its unstoppable I cant resist at all
and I would never try to slow down the wind
cause baby it Just has to be what it is
and asking me not to love you is like asking Niagara not to fall"
She Looked at him smiling at the way he had professed his love for her "I Love you to Jack"
He reached for her lips as he kissed her.
she continued to speak with his lips mere inches away from hers "I'll make it up to you I promise, I'll commandeere a ship for you a better one a faster one"
He looked at her as if he was memorizing every inch of her "and how praytell do you manage on doing that?"
she gazed into his eyes "You forget i'm the Govs daughter I have connections"
He eyed her sternly "I cant allow you to risk your life to get me a ship"
she again gazes into his eyes "But I feel like I owe you,first I gave you the Kiss of death" she frowns she still felt so guilty about that "and then I'm the reason You lost the Pearl"
He kissed the top of her head "you didnt kill me Love I'm captain Jack Sparrow I could have gotten free,or at the very least yelled at me crew for help but I didnt,I died for you" He kissed her fingertips
"but that doesnt matter now cause i'm here now and I'm never leaving your side" again he kisses her fingers ,she moaned inwardly everytime he did it,she was definetly enjoying the feel of his lips,of his touch
He continued "and secondly You mean more to me then the Pearl ever could and Captain Barbossa will Pay for threatening you" she frowned at him having a feeling she knew what he meant by that
"i cant worry my heart with what if
Oh maybe I should just give in
and wrap myself around you
and Let you take me down
take me down"
She felt his lips on hers,gazing into his caring brown eyes,almost forgetting she was tied to a rock ALMOST but not quite
she Looked at him wondering how he'd get her out of this precarious situation,she neednt have worried however for within Minutes he had her wrists untied
she then looked at him again frowning "Now how do we get down there"
He looks back at her "Lizzie do you trust me?"
she looks at him something here was not right "yes but what does that have to do with anything" she felt his arms wrap around Her body as he said
we're going to need to jump"
she eyed him as if he was nuts ,extremely cute but indeed nuts "Jump down there?"
He looks at her "its the only way down Love" He gazed into her eyes "but You've got to trust me"
she did trust him and she loved him with all her heart and soul she Knew he would never let anything happen to her,she wrapped herself around him
as he lead her down the rope to where it was safe enough to actually Jump,then they both Jumped together Landing just inches away from the water fall and the rock that had already plummeted to its doom
"cause you cant ask the sun not to shine
and no ones ever found a way to stall time
oh baby its unstoppable I cant resist at all
and I would never try to slow down the wind
cause baby it just has to be what it is
and asking me not to love you is like Asking Niagara not to fall
Not to fall
Rain Rain Rain down on me
Wash wash Wash over me
Fall Fall Fall into me"
Jack walked towards the waterfall,Elizabeth eyed him wondering what he was up to "Jack what are you doing" she followed closely behind him
He reached for her Hand ,they stood underneath the waterfall as it fell from the top washing over the both of them,they both laughed,suddenly the Laughter stopped as Jack Sparrow became serious
"this is how I spent my time away from you,thinking of you,dreaming of you" for the first time in her life she saw Jack Sparrow cry "and now its real its not a dream"
she walked closer to him Kissing him,she never saw him actaul succumb to what he was feeling,it was as if Her loved changed him a little, Or maybe perhaps she just brought out the best of him
the Real Jack Sparrow,"its not a dream Jack because if it were I'd be dreaming to" with that they both succumb to the kiss and thier bottled up emotions,He fell on top of her,she could feel the Wieght of his body,
they continued to Kiss
***********
awhile had passed since they Made love underneath the water fall and now they had managed to commandeere the Pearl once again
Barbossa saw him and said smugly "you were to late werent you"
Elizabeth came out from behind Jack her hair still wet from the water,her hand still clinging to his "actaully no he wasnt and once again thanks are in order"
Barbossa eyed them in confusion ,she smirked "you see somehow without knowing it You always manage to give us what we want"
Jack looked from Elizabeth to Barbosa "which in this case was eachother"
Barbossa smirked evilly after the shock wore off "Yes Jack but You lost the Pearl remember"
Jack eyed him "AND You threatened Elizabeth for that you Must Pay" with that he pulled out his sword,Elizabeth shook her head,she knew he wasnt a violent person unless it came to her
and they both knew this wouldnt really accomplish anything
Barbossa could sense the emotions they were feeling and the unspoken words between them "Yes Jack listen to the Little lady Killing me wont solve anything"
she smirked "actually Barbossa thats not what I thinking he can kill You just not that way"
Jack raised an eyebrow knowing exactly what she meant "ah yes ye shall Be Walking the Plank Captain Barbossa"
Barbossa didnt notice that they had somehow backed him onto the plank of the ship until it was to late
with one swift push Both Jack and Elizabeth pushed him off the ship
Elizabeth smirked "Good luck with the Sharks in the water"
Jack smirked as well "and no company on the island ,with no means of getting off of it"
Elizabeth brushed off her hands as off they had been full of dirt "that should do it" with that she walked towards the Helm of the ship
Jack smiled at her proudly "Wow I'm impressed"
she smiled back at him "yes we'll You taught me everything I know"
"what about young William?"
Elizabeth shrugged "He just taught me how to handle a sword,you taught me everything else"
He wrapped his arms around her as they both Steered the Pearl to the next Port,His Lips kissing the crook of her neck
the sound of Niagara could be heard behind them (Editors note...I had to add that to the fic as the Song ends with the sound of a waterfall and I felt it rather fitting)
