Suns first rays became visible and woke me up.I looked down and saw Willow,still asleep.I gently woke him up.He started yawning and stretching."Isn't it too early?"I shook my head.

"No it's not.I'm going to sneak into my mom's room to get some change of clothes.Do you want anything?"He shook his head.

I already have the keys to every cell here but it would be extremely suspicious of me to walk out of here just like that.So I started yelling.

"Hello?!"One of the guys,finally,came in.He was stumbling.Obviously,hungover from last night's festivities."The door?"He opened it and left without a word.

"He's weird."I shook my head."No,Willow.He is not weird.He's just hungover."So I snuck inside my parents' bedroom.

Seeing him passed out on my parent' bed,reeking alcohol...He is absolutely disusting to me.I opened my mother's closet.I got a my white shirt and my black leather corset.

I pulled the strings to the point where it was the tightest it could be.Yet it was still big for me.I pulled the loose leather from behind and damaged the points where I'd cut it.

With my hands being used to this,it did not take long for me to stich the corset back to shape.I brushed my hair and put on my black bandana before leaving the bedroom.

"Where to?"I turned around right away."Now,I know you're a pervert."He scoffed as he straightened up on the bed.

"You are the one who snuck ing my bedroom,love.How am I the pervert here?If you wanted to do stuff with me you could have just said so,sweetheart."Excuse me?!

"You lack manners.Have you noticed it before?I certainly did,if you were wondering."He smirked."I wasn't wondering anything.What were you doing in my room,darling?"

This is not his room!

"This isn't your room.You don't deserve this room.You never will.This room will always be Naida and Nen's room.You will never be worthy of this room,this ship or that hat you wear as you stand behind that rudder."

As serious as I was,he ignored me and my words.He came up to me."This is two.I will cut your throat open at three.""Cut my throat open?"I chuckled.

"You're Calder 'Cutthroat' Gawain.Good to know."I left the room.Now,I know who he is but he doesn't know who I am.

I heard two pairs of footsteps behind me as I made my way into the kitchen.Calder's cook was already there.

"Captain?""Jefferson,leave."Jefferson nodded and left as he was ordered to do so."Boy!You too."I shook my head."Willow is not under your command.He stays if that is what he wants."

"I'm not leaving you alone with him,Nox."I nodded."Then,it is settled.Willow is staying."Calder rolled his eyes."I said,leave!I'm the one who is in charge and you will do as I say!"

"Are you?!Are you the one in charge?!Because last time I checked,you don't know shit besides sailing!"I knew I was pushing it but I wasn't going to stand down from this.

"If I know how to cook,clean,maintain order and to the daily necessities of this ship,then I'm the one who is in charge!Not you!"

"She kind of has a point,captain."Calder turned around and saw Hook."Hook,she broke your arm,I will break the rest of your limbs!"I rolled my eyes.

"It's Hook,right?Come here."I took a wooden spoon and my bandana."What?"I checked his broken arm and he yelled a little."Oh,great!Your bone isn't exactly crushed."

I wrapped up his arm with the wooden sppon and my bandana."Don't over-use your arm and you should be fine in about a month.Go."He smiled.

"Sorry about the whole 'crazy whore' thing.""Do your job fine,don't disrespect me ever again and I don't care what you do after that point."He nodded."I'll be on the watch,then."

With Hook leaving,I turned to Willow."He's much nicer to you today,Nox."I nodded."I know,right?"Calder hit my shoulder to make me look at him.

"Boy,leave.I won't repeat myself again."I mockingly smiled."Of course,you won't!Because he is not leaving either way!"He called Jefferson to get Willow.

"Now,where were we?Right.Who the fuck are you?!And how the fuck do you know my real name?!""Why?Why does this bother you this much?"I scoffed.

"Is it because you don't know my name and I know yours?!"He slammed me tot he wall behind with his hand around my throat,once again,choking me.

"I know your name,Nox!But you seem to be lacking great amount of respect for me!"I chuckled.He tightened his grip before letting go.

"Alrighty,you do know my name.Good for you!"My mocking smile left my expression."Now,I need you out the kitchen.You aren't cooking?Out.Decide to pitch in?Fine by me."

Willow and I cooked,sang and danced all the way through the preperation process.Jefferson,Calder's cook,came and gave some tips.

Like,who doesn't like spicy food,who hates sour stuff...That kind of tips.

"And,lastly,Hook."I handed him his plate."Thanks."I smiled."You are the first one to show gratitude this morning."Hook left and I turned to Willow as he was eating up.

"Get the mops and the buckets ready once you're all done with your food."He nodded and I turned back to Jefforson."And this is the captain's plate."I shrugged."And?"

"You won't go upstairs and bring it to him?""Jefferson,I'm many things but I am not a maid.If he wants a maid,he can be a king in a castle but not a ship."

"Nox,you cook really well.I'm sure you are capable too.Or else,why would the former king let you live?But you shoulder bring this to him if you want to keep living."

As annoyed as I was,I did take the plate to him.I knocked on the bedroom door,no response.So,I knocked on the study's door."Come in."I came in and put the tray on an empty spot.

"I'm not a fucking maid.Just because I brought this up here today,doesn't guarantee I'll do it again tomorrow."He looked up from the parchments."Took you long enough."

"On second thought,you cook your own tomorrow."I left the study before he talked to me.Willow and I mopped the ship.We moved to the next chore as the previous one was over.

I got to meer with the rest of Calder's crew.Once the dinner was served,I got my plate and went up to the watch.

I watched as the sun went down just to rise all over again tomorrow morning with dawn.And I was completely fine before he came up here too.
