* As the crowd started to settle down a bit after all this excitement. Elizabeth went over to Will. She hadn't danced all night and wasn't gonna do this the whole time. She went over and held his hand. She kissed his cheek and whispered softly*
" Excuse me Bu I haven't danced all night. Will you dance with me?"

Both Paul and David were shocked, but not surprised that Barbossa had proposed to Saber. "Congratulations, mate; I know ye'll be 'appy, and I wish ye two the best o' luck."

Sarah left the crowds and walked over to Paul, and took both of his hands, slowly leading him to the dance floor, just as a slow song stuck up. Come on Paul, dance with me. I've only had two dances the whole night. Besides the night's almost over!

The night was growing old,and Emma was growing tired.She had,after all,been dancing since before Rick actually arrived.A slow song began to play,and she felt herself losing the strength necessary to hold her own head up.Her head slowly drooped down and came to rest on Rick's shoulder.
Rick's eyes flickered downwards.He noticed Emma's steps growing slower."Emma?Ye don' seem altogether well,lass..."
Emma nodded weakly,her head never entirely leaving Rick's chest."Tired..."she muttered."been dancing a lot.Had lot's of rum,too..."
"More than ye'll tell me..."
She nodded."I don't think I c'n keep dancin' much longer..."
"All righ'," said Rick."can ye walk over to the side,then?"He interpreted the small movement on his shoulder as a nod,and walked over to the row of chairs on the wall by the rum bowl.
Emma sat down on one of the chairs beside Rick and immediately fell asleep,her head still on his shoulder.
Rick put an arm around Emma's sleeping form...to support her,of course.Or so he told himself.He smiled fondly at her,as she curled up slightly in sleep.He allowed himself to remember a night years ago,when she had fallen asleep beside him just like this.Except they'd been wearing their pirate clothes.Not a ballgown and a suit.Truth be told,he wasn't feeling too comfortable in the suit...he rather wanted his blue pants and shirt that was at some point white back.But he supposed that tomorrow,he'd go back to normal.And Emma...well,there was no doubt in anyone's mind that she'd be rid of the dress as there wasn't anyone around her to see her change.
Rick looked up,watching the other couples whirling across the dance floor-the Turners,and the three pairs who were engaged to become married.He sighed,wondering for a moment what it would be like to be married...

*Elizabeth approached him once more, grabbed his hand, and kissed his cheek. When she asked him to dance he smiled and nodded his head.* Of course I'll dance with you love! *He said, leading her to the dancefloor. As they twirled, swayed, and dipped to the music he looked at her, a soft look in his eyes. He still thought it a miracle that he was with her, after all that had happened and the situation he was in when he first met her. He couldn't even bring himself to call her Elizabeth for many years! He smiled at her again then glanced over and saw Rick watch them for a moment. He smiled at the man, tipped his head to him, then went on dancing with his wife.*

* Elizabeth smiled as Will led her to the dance floor. They twirled and swayed and she was hapy to be his wife. She rest her head upon him* " So what have you been up to all night?"

Rick sat in quiet contemplation for some time,watching the other occupants of the ballroom.Beside him,Emma was breathing gently.He smiled.Once more,he remembered that time so long ago when they had first met.He remembered sitting beside her on the beach,in the firelight,oblivious to the rest of the crew around them,just talking.
That had only been a few years ago,but both of them had done a lot of growing up.He'd learned to live without her,and it wasn't something he ever wanted to do again.
He twisted a lock of her hair thoughtfully around his index finger.
"Never again,"he whispered...

Paul smiled. "Sure, darlin'." And they danced slowly, swaying in tune to the music. He held her close, breathed in the smell of her hair. "Darlin', I'll always love ye. Remember tha'."

After a while,Emma began mumbling in her sleep.Finally,she sat up,her eyes shooting open.She noticed Rick's curious gaze and smiled comfortingly at him."Ahh...that was refreshin'I feel like I've slept fer days.I 'aven't,'ave I?"She didn't want to tell Rick that she still had nightmares about things that had happened years ago,or that she'd learned to function on less than an hour of sleep a night to keep herself from dreaming.
Rick looked at Emma skeptically."Ye were asleep fer maybe ten minutes."He reached over and touched her hand gently."Ye know ye can tell me anythin' tha's wrong,don't ye?"
Emma nodded,but didn't say anything,evoking an exasparated sigh from Rick.She didn't need him worrying right now...

(OOC - Again, I apologize for my long absence. I was on vacation (yea, from the hurricane...heh) and then I haven't had much time for anything but the RPG since I got back. But I'm here now! Aren't you all so HAPPY? ) ::Barbossa's eye began to twitch when Will mentioned children. He felt the room grow cold, and everything began to get dark. He visioned two little chirldren standing next to him on his ship, screaming at him and kicking him, throwing their bottles everywhere, and tearing everything to pieces. He grabbed his hair and began screaming:: "NOOOO!!! NEVER!!!! AHHHH!!!!!" ::He then ran around the room in a very psychotic fashion, ranting about "little demons" and "poop-factories" until he finally just fell over, unconscious::*grin*

Emma was about to say something to Rick when Barbossa got up,grabbing his hair and shrieking.She sat straight up,staring at him.Eventually,he fell down,passed out.
Rick was the first to move after this odd outburst.He stood,then bent over next to the undead,passed out pirate,poking him a few times."Is he gonna be all righ'?"

Evelyn entered the ball with a rather plain sea blue gown. It was a bit frayed but still very pretty. She had managed to pin up her hair but her rebellious curls fought the hairdo and fell down anyway. She sighed and looked aroun. "Well...better late than never I suppose." Although, being the pirate she was , she kept her dagger strapped on her leg under the dress. She stared around and felt very nervous, the last time she wore a dress at all was when she was only 14 and since then never touched one. She stepped rather comfortably and grinned. She had kept her boots on under the dress for balance, no one could see her feet anyway, she thought. She stared around not sure what to do...and seeing a few on the dance floor she felt out of place and looked around looking for some company.

"Unfortunately,"Emma replied dryly."Ye don' seem te grasp this,Rick...Barbossa can't die!'E's a bloody undead thingy!"
Rick raised an eyebrow at Emma."O' course 'e c'n die,everyone can!"He dragged Barbossa into a chair and then looked around for something to revive the man.
Emma handed Rick a bucket of water.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
He threw the water on Barbossa.
