I lay in bed, listening to the clock strike midnight. The chimes of the bell, ring in my ears. The Pirates are downstairs, sleeping on mistresses made of down. They insisted that I get luxury. All of a sudden, I hear a
Retching sound. I jump out of bed, grab a candle, and head down the stairs. Leo is sitting up, vomiting into a wastebasket. Captain and the others are surrounding him, worry, painting their faces.

I rush to Leo's side. He is sweating. I kneel down to his hight, and I hold onto him.

" Leo, are you okay?" He doesn't talk, but shakes his head.

Alec touches my shoulder.

" He sometimes gets flashbacks of his past. This happens all the time. He will be fine in the morning."

" Oh." I say, looking sadly, at the broken figure in front of me.

" Go back to sleep, Julie. " Captain says.

" Fine. If you need anything, I am upstairs. Goodnight guys. Goodnight, Leo. I hope you feel better."
