Blair Sparrow 2

Will

We arrived back on the ship, My father taking the wheel. As I stayed down on the main deck and sat on the railing, my foot hanging off the edge as I watched the moon reflect over the water, making it shimmer with beauty. It always seemed to calm me down after make me feel at home...something I need desperately after not having my family for 11 years.

"Ah hem." I heard behind me, taking me out of my thoughts. I turned around and saw Will standing behind me.

"Oh hi Will." I smiled.

"Hi Blair...sorry for startling you. But I was wondering if we could talk?" He asked. I looked at him confused, wondering why he would want to talk to me.

"Umm sure." I said and hopped off the rail. I fixed my jacket and we walked into my bedroom to have privacy. I sat down on my bed as he leaned against my door. "Why did you wanna talk?"

"This, Tell me the truth!" He said very stern and threw the cloth with the key on it at me. I caught it and clutched it in my hand.

"Will...this will save Elizabeth. Trust me." I lied...kind of.

"Your lying." Will stated.

"Ah yes, I may be telling a lie, but if you believe it than it becomes the truth in your mind." I smirked.

"Why can't you or your father talk like a normal human." He groaned. I placed my hands on my knees and pushed my self up, so I was standing right in front of him.

"Because we're Sparrows. Talking like a normal human...sometimes isn't what we fancy." I smiled. He just stared at me annoyed and rolled his eyes. I pushed him aside and opened the door...knowing that I avoided telling the truth.

"Blair...I have a question before I go." Will said. I looked at him intrigued.

"Why did you hold a sword to my neck earlier? You know I would never hurt your father."

"So...why would you threaten him in the first place?...If you knew you wouldn't even go through with it." I smirked. He looked at me stunned. I could see the gears turning in his head as he complimented my words. "Good day Will." I said and walked by him.

"Wait...wanna train?"

"Why are you acting all sweet with me Will? I thought you wanted to save your precious Elizabeth from the gallows." I acknowledged.

"Of course I want to save Elizabeth. I love her. But there isn't anything I can do more than just wait till we get to the Flying Dutchman." Will expressed.

"Ah..." I smiled. "Than we can train." I pulled out my sword and Will did the same. We walked onto the main deck and faced one another.

"What is the meaning of this?" Gibbs shouted.

"It's just a little bit of fun, Gibbs." I smiled. Me and Will began circling each other. Than he swung, I blocked it. We began bashing our swords together. Him doing much better than me, since I'm not as good as him. So I could tell he was going easy. After a while, the crew started forming around us. Cheering us on and yelling at who they want to win.

But since he was going easy on me, I could start trying a little harder to throw him off his groove, which is exactly what I did.

I kicked Will in the leg, he groaned and fell into a kneel. I jumped over his leg and kicked his sword out of his hand and pulled that arm back, I than placed the tip of my sword against his chest.

"You know I can still win right?" He teased.

"If this was for real. You would already be lying on the deck, covered in your own blood. Gasping to death." I whispered. His eyes widened slightly and fear struck them.

"Alright." He choked. I placed my sword back in its scabbard and smiled proudly at myself. I felt an arm placed on my shoulder and I turned to see my father.

"Nicely done darling." He smiled.

"Thank you." I said as I watched Will stand up. He looked all embarrassed and I kind of felt bad for him...but I also didn't at the same time.

The crew all shuffled back to their stations, my father walked to the wheel along with Gibbs. I sat back down on the rail, in the same spot as before. Will sat next to me, him coping my position.

"I'm very confused with you Will..." I began.

"About what?" He asked.

"We've never talked this much ever and this is the first time you've ever wanted to make a conversation with me." I acknowledged.

"Well is it wrong of me to want a friend?" He smiled.

"No." I smiled and my cheeks flushed in embarrassment. "I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize, it's fine Blair." He expressed. We continued to look at the sea, When I felt this weight floated down onto my shoulders.

"Will...I want to apologize for something."

"What?" He asked as he turned to face me better.

"You know when you were in port Royal when all of the cursed pirates attacked, including me self?" I asked. He nodded his head, with much intrigue in his eyes. "When you got knocked out...that was me." I said all guilty.

"You?" He pointed to me, his eyes full of disbelief. "You caused me to fail saving Elizabeth the first time."

"Yes and I am so sorry. Please believe me. Look I knocked out a lot of people and I had just the opportunity to knock you out so I took it." I put forth. He turned away from me slightly disgusted and got off the rails. I quickly grabbed his wrist, stopping him.

"Let go of me."

"No...listen to me Will. Think about this way. If it wasn't for me knocking you out. You never would have gone on that adventure, met my father, me or seen Elizabeth again. Look she got to see you be a badass Will...you got to fight together without boundaries, all while sailing ships and fighting cursed pirates. I don't know about you...but I think you should be thankful I knocked you out." I smiled slightly, hoping that the sympathy would make him feel more calm.

He looked at me and contemplated my words, sighing and sitting back down on the rail. "I guess I should say thank you." He laughed.

"I guess you do." I laughed as well. I opened my arms and he leaned forward and we shared a quick hug.

"We're arriving!" My father announced.
