PotC drabble: Good News [Elizabeth/Will, general]
Title: Good News Author: celandineb Fandom: PotC Pairing: Elizabeth/Will Rating: general Length: 100 words Summary: Elizabeth has a special gift for Will this Christmas. Note: Written for the holidays, 2009.
Elizabeth felt the child kick within her as she lighted the candle that burned, always, in her window. Tonight it would guide her steps home from the shore.
They had promised each other, Will and she, that at Christmas time he should stand the Flying Dutchman offshore and send the ship's boat to fetch her aboard. He could not ignore his duties, nor come ashore himself, but one night in the year she would come to him, lest they forget.
And this night, Elizabeth thought, she would have the greatest of gifts give her husband: the news of their child.
