The Devils Heart (Reader X Jack Sparrow)

The wheel.

I woke up to the steady rocking of the ship and the sound of waves hitting the dark wood. The first glimpses of dawn shone through the window creating a pattern on the floor. I rolled over to see the bed empty, the covers flung away from the right side. Crew slowly moved around on deck and began their duties. Standing up, I steadied myself and slid on my leather boots. After putting on my many layers of clothing I picked my hat off Jack's desk and marched out of the cabin looking for him. Elizabeth stood at the helm speaking to Jack as I walked over. It was time to put the plan into action. I moved over to be next to Jack and kissed him right in front of her. When I pulled away the look of shock that sat on her face was priceless. The pearl moved swiftly over the waves as I walked down to the deck. I saw Norrington on his hands and knees scrubbing the floor with a rag. I walked over, "Manual labour is good for you. Builds character," he looked up and rolled his eyes. I walked over to Jack and Gibbs who were being spoken to by Elizabeth. "Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company." She said as Jack look at leather-bound papers. He stuck out his tongue and mimicked hurling. "Will was working for Beckett and never said a word."Gibbs put in "I'm going to kill him if he gets back to this ship." The betrayal strung like a knife wound. Jack put a hand around my waist, pulling me close. "Beckett wants the compass. Only one reason for that."Gibbs pointed out. I looked at Jack suddenly realising. "Of course," Jack said. "He wants the bloody chest," I finished "He did say something about a chest," Elizabeth said. "If the company controls the chest, they control the sea," Gibbs explained to Elizabeth. "A truly discomforting notion Lizzie," Jack said. "And bad!" I added, "Bad for every mother's son or daughter that calls themselves a pirate." Gibbs elaborated. "Gibbs I think you can coax a bit more wind for these sails," I said before walking off to my cabin. "Brace the foreyard!"Gibbs yelled the order. 

when I left my cabin again, Elizabeth was smiling over the rail while Norrington leaned on it. I began to eavesdrop "It's a curious thing.  There was a time I would have wanted you to look like that while thinking about me," he said, making Elizabeth drop her smile like a hot rock. "I don't know what you mean," she said turning around agitatedly "Oh I think you do," Norrington said back "Oh, don't be absurd. I trust him, that's all," denial. A burning sensation rose to my chest and my fists curled into balls. The dirty man chuckled a little then walked off. "So you never wondered how your latest fiance ended up on the flying dutchman?" he called over his shoulder, she turned around again and I went over to her silently. Flipping open the compass the needle spun and pointed at Jack who was looking out a telescope. She slammed it shut and grimaced "Sorry about nearly killing you but if you make a move towards Jack I will personally slit your throat and feed you to the Kraken," I threatened in a low voice, surprising her with my presence, and she jumped slightly. She looked me up and down then walked over and sat on the steps to the helm. I wandered below deck to find some rum. After looking for 5 minutes I found a full bottle and walked back up onto deck only to see Elizabeth within 5 inches of Jack's face. I heard her say "You won't be able to resist. You're going to want to know what it tastes like," They were about to kiss "I do want to know what it tastes like," he said back. The feeling from earlier bubbled in my chest filling my body with rage, I wouldn't even have to fake this. "Being a good man, I know that you'd never put me in a position that would compromise my honour." He stroked her cheek, nose touching. He lent in to kiss her then looked at his open palm and pulled back. "I'm proud of you Jack," she said. "Mind if I interrupt this little oh-so wholesome moment eh?" I asked downing half the bottle at once. "Both of you, my cabin, now!" I screamed at them.  I stomped over to my cabin doing a sarcastic bow to welcome them. "Not even 10 minutes ago I told you to bloody back off Jack then I come back from getting rum to see you almost kissing him? You make me want to massacre people. What is wrong with you?!" I shouted right into her face. "Do you have a death wish is that it? Do you want me to kill you? Well doing a good job at persuading me!" angry tears began to form but I blinked them back. "And you!" I pointed at Jack "You know about us. We slept in the same bed for the last 6 months. There is no way you could have forgotten about us," I seethed, furious with him even though we weren't actually together. "Out!" I shouted "Both of you! Get out!" I shoved them out the door slamming it behind them I leaned with my back against the door and slid down it. I sat and sobbed. Hating Elizabeth with every tear. Eventually, Gibb's shouted "Land Ho!" meaning I had to go ashore with them l heard Jack mutter something about a Jar of dirt "you're pulling too fast," argued d Pintelle" you're pulling too slow we don't want the Kraken to catch us "Ragetti argued back. Jack sat at the front of the rowboat clutching his Jar of dirt" I'm saving me strength for when it comes" the former said in response."I don't think it's Kraken anyway, I always heard it said. "Krayken" with a long A" "no no no no no Krocken is how it's pronounced in the original Scandinavian" Ragetti argued back"We ain't
