The Sirens Song

Diving Into Love

(None of you seemed to notice the tiny hints I left in the last two chapters so this chapter I'll make it obvious)

Kirito's Pov
Plan b has worked great, it's been about a month now and nobody has tried to kill Eugeo so far, which is great, I can't have anyone hurting our guest, Agil started actually teaching Eugeo how to sail. I was in the cabin trying to figure out something I can use to make a deal with a certain other captain, who am I kidding the obvious answer is Scottish whiskey, he loves that stuff. Agil walked into the cabin "we will arrive at pirates bay in about another month Captain" he informed me, I nodded "how is Eugeo going? has he gotten used to how everything works?" I asked, Agil nodded "well.... I didn't even need to teach him actually" I gave him a confused look "Eugeo already knew how to do everything" he added, I nodded "right, he did always want to be a sailor" I mumbled "what was that sir?" Agil asked, I shook my head "nothing, I'll be out in a minute, by the way who is steering? Asuna is busy right now" I asked, Agil laughed a small bit "actually before I came here I did make sure he knew what he was doing but Eugeo offered to steer" he answered, I smiled "interesting, he's quite talented" I stood up "well let's go" I put my hat on and left the cabin with Agil, people were working outside on the deck, I looked around, Sinon was up in the nest, Yuuki was checking that the ropes were secure, I'm pretty sure Lizbeth was probably below deck checking the canons, Asuna was cooking at the moment, Silica was cleaning the deck with Klein, Sugu was probably also below deck with Lizbeth. The other crew members were just helping with those tasks. I looked up at the top deck, Eugeo was at the wheel steering, I smiled and walked up the stairs to him, he noticed me and smiled a bit "hey Kirito, I hope you don't mind, Agil needed to tell you something and I know how to do this, so I offered to help since I wasn't busy" he explained, I shook my head "it's perfectly fine, thankyou for helping out Cutie" I looked at how he was steering, his strategy was good but in strong winds he would be very likely to lose control, I walked up behind him to try and help "your stance is good but it can be better" I whispered in his ear as I placed his hands on the better spots of the steering wheel "you will have better control like this and if you have a strong stance you will be less likely to lose control in a storm or something" he got into a better stance "like this?" he asked, I nodded "great! your a natural" I kissed his cheek and stepped back to see how he would do from afar, he certainly had the natural skills to be a sailor, it's a shame that he can't be one while he let's his family control him, maybe I can help with that. I mean I did free myself and my sister.

Eugeo's Pov
Kirito is really helpful but I'm pretty sure he was flirting with me again, I think the others are starting to trust me now, that's great, it's tiring when they try to kill me every two minutes, Agil took the wheel again, I walked over to Kirito "your doing really well, good job" he complemented me, I smiled "thankyou, back home I would spend all my free time reading books on sailing, I guess all that information came in handy after all" I explained, he didn't seem at all shocked "so..... you want to be a sailor?" He asked with a small smirk, I nodded shyly "not that I really can be..... my father would never allow such an unprofessional job, besides my whole life has already been planned out for me..... this is probably the most adventure I'm ever going to have" I answered, Kirito thought for a moment "well then..... I'll make it the best adventure it can be, here follow me" he took off his hat and jacket and sat them on top of a crate, he jumped up onto the railing on the top deck "what are you doing?" I asked, he held his hand out to me "just trust me" he answered, I stared at him for a moment, something about those words coming from him was familiar to me, I smiled a bit and grabbed his hand, he pulled me up onto the railing "follow my lead" he jumped forward and grabbed onto a rope, he then climbed up onto the sails which were currently up, I followed his actions and jumped to the rope, he helped me up onto the sail, we both stood there, I tried to get my balance while Kirito stood there effortlessly, he chuckled a bit and grabbed my hand, he put his other hand on my waist "it's fine, I won't let you fall, unless it's for me" he reassured, I rolled my eyes and nodded. He looked down "the crew is watching" he whispered, I looked down only to look right back up at Kirito, he was right, the entire crew on deck was looking up at us, Kirito thought for a moment "could I kiss you?" He asked, I stared at him shocked "I mean in a real relationship, a moment like this would call for a kiss" he explained, I sighed, always with the flirty tone. Kirito placed his hand on my cheek gently, I looked at him again "may I?" He asked politely this time, instead of flirty his voice was sincere and loving, I stared into his eyes for a moment, what do they remind me of? I can't figure it out. I gave a small nod, Kirito smiled and leaned in towards me, he gently placed his soft lips on my own, I closed my eyes slowly melting into the kiss, he pulled away, my knees felt wobbly, I almost fell of the sail but Kirito quickly caught me by the waist "so you are falling for me Eugeo?" He asked, I laughed a bit "that was so strange" I laughed out, he laughed with me.
