The room felt oddly warm to Elizabeth as she sat at the table in Jack’s cabin looking at the nautical charts that he had strewn across it. Picking up his compass she peered around the room to make sure that she was still alone. Then closing her eyes she quickly flipped open the lid to the compass. Opening her tea colored eyes she watched as the needle spun around a couple of times before settling on an easterly direction. Wrinkling her brow she pushed back the chair and walked over to look out through the window by the door to the cabin. A frown stretched across her face when she saw Jack standing near the main mast of the ship looking out to sea. Slamming the lid to the compass shut she walked back over to the table and sank back down into her chair. A long sigh escaped her lips as she set the compass back on the table where she had picked it up from. Rolling her eyes she slouched in her chair as she tried to make herself comfortable. Just why the hell was it so sweltering in this damn cabin anyway? Groaning she stood up once more and stepped out of her boots. Standing on one foot she pulled the sock off her left foot. Repeating her actions she removed the sock from her right foot to shove them both down into her boots. That was a little better. Her tea colored eyes fell upon the blue glass bottle that Jack’s priestess had given to her about three days earlier. She had said that there was enough of the concoction in the bottle to last for two weeks. The priestess had told Elizabeth to take one drink of it every night for two weeks until it was gone.

Shrugging she reached for the bottle flinching a little as her slender fingers wrapped around the still very cold bottle. It was a little unnerving to imagine what could make the bottle stay at such an icy temperature. Pulling the cork from the bottle she brought it to her lips and took a drink from it. Pushing the cork back down in the bottle she swallowed the liquid grimacing a bit as the bitterness of it overwhelmed her taste buds before it melted into a sweet almost sugary flavor on her tongue. As the liquid made it’s way to the pit of her stomach she began to feel an intense warmth starting to spread out over her entire body. It happened every time she drank some of the potion. Beads of sweat started to collect on her forehead as the room became almost suffocating it was so stifling hot. Unable to bear the discomfort of it any longer Elizabeth pushed herself out of her chair and began unfastening her belt along with her sword to place it on the table. Yanking her hat off her head she threw it onto the table as well. Still feeling uncomfortable she unbutton her brown breeches and pushed them past her hips to step out of them. There that was better…now she didn’t feel like she was suffocating in her own clothes.

Now in nothing but her shirt and vest Elizabeth sank back down into the chair. After a moment her fingers came up to unfasten the buttons of her vest and she was shrugging out of it just as quickly as she could. Grabbing the paper fan that was on Jack’s table she opened it. Taking a moment to look at it she then began fanning herself with it. It was jade green and had light pink cherry blossoms on it with black Japanese… or what she guessed to be Japanese lettering on it. Stretching her long legs out to prop her feet up on the table Elizabeth let her eyes slip closed as she began fanning herself. So caught up in the relief of the fan she didn’t even hear the door to the cabin as it opened. Jack stood at the door watching Elizabeth as she fanned herself. His dark eyes followed the curve of her legs as they peeked out from underneath her white linen shirt. Shutting the door to let it close loudly he watched in amusement as Elizabeth jumped in her chair. Her head snapped around to see him standing there looking at her. Suddenly remembering her indecency she dropped the fan back on the table and put her feet back on the floor to try and hide her legs from his sight. Jack chuckled as he watched her try to cover herself up.

“No need t’ be shy love…I’ve seen everything remember?”

“Yes…well…I am still a lady Jack! And it’s rude to stare.”

“Well how can I help meself if yer flashing it all over me cabin darling?”

“I was doing nothing of the sort!”

“Ye were so…ye were practically naked Izzy.”

“Oh don’t be ridiculous! I’m decent!”

“That’s questionable love.”

She narrowed her eyes at him making him chuckle before flashing a crooked grin at her his gold teeth glinting in the lantern light.

“Well if it weren’t so sweltering in here I wouldn’t have to go around almost naked!”

“Sweltering? It’s a tick warm love…I’ll give ye that…but sweltering? C’mon Izzy…it’s not sweltering.”

“It is so! I would’ve collapsed from the heat if I didn’t strip down!”

“So I see.”

“You’re not hot?”

“Not in the least. I think yer imagining it.”

“And I think your brain is too saturated with rum to know the difference!”

“Ouch…that’s not very nice love.”

“It wasn’t meant to be. Jack…seriously you’re not hot?”

“No love…are ye sure yer feeling alright?”

“I’m beginning to wonder.”

“How long have ye been feeling like this?”

“Ever since I started drinking that concoction your priestess gave me.”

“Hmm…maybe it’s a side effect?”

“A miserable one if it is.”

“Could be worse love.”

“Really? I’d like to know how. Nothing could be worse than this.”

“This might jus’ be the first side effect of more worse ones t’ come.”

“That would be my luck.”

Jack chuckled as he stripped down to get ready for bed. Elizabeth had the sudden urge to watch him as he took off every last stitch of clothing. He was like a bronzed God or something the way his skin fit so perfectly over his sculpted muscles. Feeling a sudden pooling of heat in her lower belly that sent a tingling jolt straight to her sex she forced herself to look away. Hadn’t she just said it was rude to stare? Look who was being rude now. Feeling her cheeks ablaze with the blush that stained them she looked down at her hands trying to focus on anything other than the fact that Jack was naked in the room with her. His voice cut through her jumbled thoughts making her jump quite noticeably.

“Coming t’ bed love?”

“Um yes…just fixing to turn out the lantern.”

“Alright…well goodnight then.”

“Yes…goodnight.”

Elizabeth stood on trembling knees as she walked over to the bed blowing out the lantern that hung on the wall next to it before climbing into bed next to Jack. She lay there rigid beneath the blanket as she listened to him shift next to her as he tried to get comfortable. Her skin felt like it was on fire she was so hot. Sighing softly she reached for the bottom of her shirt and gently pulled it up over her head to toss it to the floor. There was no way that she would get any sleep if she were burning up. Turning onto her side to face Jack she squinted in the darkness trying to look at him with just enough moonlight to make the outline of his body visible. Her eyes raked over him tracing all the lines of his body even making out the faint outline of his cock as it rested against his lower belly. Another surge of tingling heat swept through her making her squeeze her eyes shut trying to push the sensation away. How was she ever going to sleep if that kept happening? Rolling onto her left side so that her back was facing Jack she forced her eyes shut trying to make herself fall asleep. Elizabeth jerked nearly letting out a scream when she felt Jack’s calloused hands close around her waist. Jack’s weathered lips pressed against the nape of her neck making gooseflesh appear all over her body. His hips pressed into her backside making another jolt of heat spread through her lower belly.

“Jack…I thought you were going to sleep?”

“I am…jus’ felt like holding ye that’s all.”

After a while she could feel his grip on her relax as his breathing became more shallow and even. He had fallen asleep. Wonderful! He was asleep and she was practically on fire laying next to him. After nearly another hour of lying there miserable while Jack slept she could stand it no longer. Carefully pushing back the blanket she slipped out of bed and grabbed the extra blanket that was folded up on the trunk that was at the foot of Jack’s bed. She made her way to the sofa that was on the wall right by the door and sank down on it. Stretching out on the sofa she pulled the blanket up to her neck. Still feeling the annoying hot ache that throbbed between her thighs she gave a small groan of irritation. She was never going to get any sleep unless she took care of what was bothering her. Kicking back the blanket she spread her thighs as she reached down between them. A small sigh escaped her lips as she traced the length of her sex with her index finger lightly. Yes…this was what she needed. Pushing past the satiny folds of her sex she began caressing her swollen throbbing clit. Adding another finger she began sliding them deeper into her sex feeling the tightness of her inner walls as they gripped her fingers. Needing more she began pumping a littler harder into her depths whimpering at the delicious friction.

Elizabeth imagined that it was Jack’s fingers stroking her towards her release his name tearing from the back of her throat in a strained whisper.

“J-jaaacckkk!!”

His dark eyes jerked open upon hearing his name. Reaching for Elizabeth he discovered she wasn’t there. Sitting up slowly he squinted into the darkness of the room. Finally seeing the slightest of movements coming from the sofa he made out her silouette in the dim moonlight. Her head was tilted back and soft moans and grunts were coming from her plump parted lips as she rocked frantically. His eyes widened in surprise when it dawned on him that she was pleasuring herself. A smirk stretched across his face as he watched Elizabeth manipulate her body until finally her resolve crumbled and a broken version of his name was wrenched from her open mouth.

“J-jaacckkkk!! Oh…Jack!!”

So he had been her inspiration had he? Now that was interesting. He just might have to confront her about it when it suited him. But for now he would lie back down and pretend that he hadn’t caught her pleasuring herself while thinking about him. Feeling satisfied Elizabeth yawned as she pulled her hand from between her thighs sighing as she felt her fingers slip from her still tingling sex. Reaching for the blanket she stretched out lazily on the sofa and let her eyes slip closed. Perhaps that had been the reason she had been feeling so suffocated earlier. Whatever the reason…it was gone now and she could finally sleep. Another soft sigh escaped her mouth as she began to slip into blissful unawareness to dream about all the things she wouldn’t dare allow herself to think when she was awake.

A/N: Okay this seemed like a good place to stop. So obviously the potion Elizabeth has been drinking is starting to release her inhibitions and open her mind up to the possibility of how things could be with Jack. Please read and review!!
