And At The End Of The Drink, Both Glass And Blue, I'll Always Love Only You

6-A Night

Kenma had not expected to walk into the bedroom and find the captain laying with someone.

He had just finished dinner with the crew, who were still at the pub drinking and singing. He was far too tired to continue so he decided to return, but he was shocked to find the small inn bed occupied by not one but two women.

He slammed the door shut quite quickly and turned away, ears burning as he walked down the steps to return to the pub. However, the sound of the door creaking back open faltered him. He didn't dare turn, continuing down the steps until a voice spoke.

"We're you hoping to sleep?" The captain's deep voice hummed. Kenma lifted his chin.

"I can wait," he declared quietly. "You should never leave a bedmate waiting, no matter how long you intend to lay with them, a night or more." He dropped a foot down on the next step.

"You're allowed to watch, you know~"

Kenma froze. He clenched his jaw and looked back, eyes serious.

"I don't find pleasure with women, I'm afraid."

The captain tilted his head.

"Then what of me?"

Kenma parted his lips.

"I have no interest in arrogant men."

"Yet you had no qualms with Terushima," The pirate pointed out. Kenma sighed.

"If you wish to sleep with me so desperately, don't make me run in circles to understand your riddles," Kenma advised. The captain simpered, walking closer. His boots thumped with every step, and his unlaced linen revealed thick muscle. Kenma kept his eyes up, trained on the hazel orbs.

"What will you do when I say yes?" He inquired. Kenma cocked an eyebrow.

"I'll do as you wish."

"What if I wish for you to you bleed?"

Kenma smirked.

"You would not be first."

The smile on the pirate's lips faded.

"Either take them away or finish quickly. I would like to get some sleep before you force me to leave the mainland again," Kenma spoke, leaving before the captain could reply.

He walked towards the table, sitting next to Lev who was half-drunk by now, pink in the face and smiling.

Giants we're known for overindulging.

"Ooooh! Hey K'nma," he slurred, slinging an arm around the half-naiad's shoulders. "Wan' an'ther drink?" He poured Kenma a glass, foam spilling over and slipping down the mug. Kenma downed it quite quickly, cringing at the taste.

"So, Kenma," Kai said, setting down his drink. "How'd ya end up a Naiad anyway? Naiads 'er women and reproduce asexually."

Kenma blinked.

"You know quite a bit for..." he looked the pirate over.

"Hmm? Oh, 'm human. Weird right? Cap'n's the only other human. Everyone else is'sa half-ling at leas'" he explained. Kenma nodded. "But 'nyway, how are ya even alive?"

Kenma bit his lip.

"Naiads still have human sex organs. But the Naiad gene is recessive. Only found in women as well. Apparently, I'm a miracle." Kenma felt his mouth twitch up. "Really magic is what my mother would say." He drummed his fingers against the empty mug.

He was definitely drunk.

"Alright, boys," someone said. Kenma looked up with a blurry vision, just barely making out the captain. "Back to the ship!"
