Angelica walked into the kitchen for some dinner.
She got her food, turned around, and gasped. "Sorry I didn't see you there."
"I'm sorry." Elizabeth formally apologized. "I don't believe we've met properly, I am Elizabeth Swann." She held out a delicately manicured hand.
"Angelica." She gave her a firm hand shake, to Elizabeth's disgust.
"What brings you to the ship?" She asked as Angelica sat down at the table.
"Jack." Angelica answered plainly.
"Oh.." Elizabeth said hesitantly.
"Is there a problem?" Said an irritated Angelica.
"You've got to know that he will leave you someday, don't you?" She said, sounding concerned for Angelica.
"No he won't." Angelica replied. "He can't."
"Of course he can. He's a pirate." She almost chuckled at the memories they had.
Angelica glared at her when she wasn't looking.
Elizabeth pardoned herself and quickly walked to Jack's cabin.
"Jack, we need to talk." Elizabeth started.
Jack sat with a puzzled look on his face.
"When has it ever been of your nature to stick to one woman?" She crossed her arms.
"Since 12 years ago." Jack replied.
Elizabeth looked confused, but shook it off. "Well this 'Angelica' you're using here doesn't seem to think you'll leave her, and it is awful selfish of you to keep her believing that and then break her heart." Elizabeth huffed.
"Oh good you've met!" Jack exclaimed cheerfully.
"That's not the right answer!" Elizabeth angrily said.
"Lizzie, you seem to have the wrong idea here, she's right, I will never leave her." He said seriously.
"Jack? Is that you?" She asked sarcastically.
"Elizabeth, I'm married to her. We have a son." He smiled.
Elizabeth stepped back and covered her mouth. "My god you've really done it. You've really changed." She breathed.
"Not that much. I've just fallen in love." He said with a toothy grin.
