Will packed all his stuff, which wasn't much considering that he was only the apprentice of a blacksmith and returned to the beach, waiting for Elizabeth.
Will yawned, it was well past three clock in the morning and he was getting tired, his heart was pounding as he strained his eyes, looking for Elizabeth ~ what they were doing was dangerous. Will shivered, if James found out he would have him hanged.

Elizabeth climbed up into her rooms and grabbed a bag. She stuffed her clothes in and a picture of her mother. Her eyes filled with tears as she thought of leaving her father but she shook it away, Elizabeth loved Will. Suddenly there was a knock at the door.

Will paced back and forth, feeling more and more nervous by the second, what could possibly be taking her so long? The more time he had to think about it the more Will felt guilty, he shouldn't be taking her away from her father, should he? But by the gods he loved her! And he couldn't bear the thought of her marrying someone else...
James knocked nervously on Elizabeth's door, he knew he shouldn't be bothering her so late at night but he had to tell her something ~ it was now or never! "Elizabeth, are you awake?" he called through the door, he'd heard her moving around but why was she up at this hour? He hoped she wouldn't be too mad at him for doing this...

Stuffing her bag under the bed she leaped into bed and pretended to read a book. "Yes, I'm awake." James. Fear strangled at her heart, did he know she had secretly seen Will? Elizabeth shook the thought away, if James asked she would tell him the truth, that he was a nice caring man, but she loved Will.

James entered the room when Elizabeth said she was still awake, he looked her over carefully she trully had grown into a fine young woman. "Elizabeth, I... well me and your father both think that you and me would make a fine match and I love you, can't you see that?" he gave her a pleading look. Why did Turner have to get in their way?
He sighed loudly. "Tell me the truth, do you love me or Turner?" James said the last word as if it was poison. "He's just a whelp you know." he said, unable to keep his dislike of Will out of his voice.
Will started to worry about Elizabeth, had she decided not to run off with him after all? He slowly walked towards her house until he was outside of her window, he could just barely hear someone talking to her, no doubt as to who it was. He also heard what James said about him, Will bit his lip ~ it kind of hurt to know James thought that way about him.

Elizabeth sigh and searched for the words in her mind, James was looking at her so sadly, Will was waiting for her, she knew who she loved. But she didn't want to hurt James! " James....." Elizabeth started tucking a strand of golden brown behind her ear. "You are a amazing man. Your brave and wise and caring. And I really do like you, but more as a friend, than a lover." Her brown eyes were full of worry at what James would say. " I love Will."

James turned away from her, that was what he'd feared ~ that she did indeed love Will. He sighed heavily. "But why?" he questioned her. "What could you possibly see in him?" James tried to be nice about it but he felt rather hurt and his words were a bit harsh. He moved away form Elizabeth. "So be it Miss Swann." he said before leaving the room.

Elizabeth let out a meloncholy sigh. She hadn't wanted to hurt James, but in the end she had. Slipping out f the covers Elizabeth once again wrapped a coat tightly around herself and continued grabbing things, last of all she grabbed money. All her money she put in a side pocket on the bag. Slowly Elizabeth slunk out the window, she was glad James hadn't noticed it was open. Turning one last time to look at her house she bit her lip, she would be leaving behind everything she knew! It was all worth it if it meant she could spend her life with Will. Elizabeth climbed down the trelless and ran towards the beach. " Will!" She panted as she saw him. " Sorry I'm late! James came,"

"Elizabeth!" Will cried happily, wrapping his arms around her. He had to admit he'd been worried about her. He turned away slightly, suddenly feeling bad for doubting her. "I thought maybe you decided not to follow through with the plan after all." he whispered in her ear. "Is everything okay then?" Will brushed his hand against her soft cheek.
A soft breeze of the ocean played with Elizabeth's honey colored hair, throwing it up in Will's face. He laughed softly, holding her close to his body.
"I love you so much." Will muttered in her ear.

Elizabeth wrapped her hands around Will's back, she hugged him tightly. " Everything is fine now." She murmmered. Felling the breeze Elizabeth sighed and looked out at the ocean. " Where do we go?" She questioned.
