Angelica walked into the cabin absentmindedly reading Barbossa's map.
"I just can't figure this out!" She threw the map down before she realized that Elizabeth was also present in Jack's cabin.
"What? Didn't have enough fun convincing me he was going to leave? Back for more?" She challenged.
"I apologize for my behavior. I didn't realize that he loved you so dearly." She inclined her head.
Angelica looked strangely at her.
"She's royalty." Jack mouthed to her.
Angelica gave an understanding nod.
"Alright, alright get up I forgive you." Angelica said after a few awkward seconds.
"Thank you." Elizabeth nodded.
"Hooray hoorah, now let's get to the map!" Jack exclaimed impatiently.
Angelica picked up the map from the floor. "It has no landmarks on it, we have no idea where it describes." She shook her head.
"Let me see." Jack held out his hand.
Angelica held the map close to her. "Strict orders from Captain Barbossa to not let you see." She giggled.
"Orders?!? Captain Barbossa?!?!?" Jack yelled.
Angelica laughed her head off.
"So you're not going to let go of that map, huh?" Jack smirked.
"Nope." Angelica smiled.
"Does this count as letting me see?" Jack asked as he picked her up and sat her on his lap.
Elizabeth stood awkwardly silent.
"I guess not." Angelica smirked back.
"Yea.. I'm gonna go do... something." Elizabeth excused herself as the couple started kissing.
Elizabeth was in the hallway leading to the deck when she was stopped.
"Pardon me, lady. Have you seen Captain Jack?" Asked Jackie.
"Are you his cabin boy?" Elizabeth chuckled at how cute the boy was.
"No, I'm his son, Jackie." The boy suddenly looked a lot less cute to Elizabeth.
"Very original name." She chuckled. "Well he's in his cabin. Although you might want to knock before entering, he's in there with Angelica. Your mother?" She asked curiously.
"Yes. Oh those two." He rolled his eyes and ran off.
"Where'd he go?" Asked Seraphina as she tried to catch up with the teenage boy.
"And who are you?" Elizabeth smiled at seeing at least one other woman in a dress on the ship, even a small one.
"I'm his- I'm with- I don't know. I'm Seraphina." She offered her hand as gently as Elizabeth did.
"Boy troubles?" Elizabeth giggled.
"Not troubles, just confusion." She sighed before taking off in the direction Elizabeth pointed.
