The encounter between Bridget and Hook was craved in her mind that she didn't get enough sleep even barely slept. During the whole night Bridget couldn't sleep even if she closed her eyelids, she was waking up abruptly with soft pantings and flustered expression.

It felt almost weird for Bridget to be in such a state - she never felt like this before, it was different yet very tempting to desire a friendship with James Hook. Besides what she had to lose? The next day is coming after 4 hours and she will meet with him outside of the academy to show her something.

She won't deny that her curiosity about that 'something' ate her alive during all the night which gave her unease feeling, another reason she couldn't get her 'beauty' sleep.

The night passed a bit quicker than usual. The sun start to shine brightly and breaking its rays through the dormitories of the students as a alarm for them to start the day but Bridget was already awake, pacing around her room to gain back her composure and get ready for her second meet with Hook.

For a moment there was a small hesitation - what if it is a trap? What if he doesn't show up? Bridget had those type of thoughts until she closed her eyes, muttered a few calm words towards herself and opened her eyelids again to get ready for her encounter.

It took her almost twenty minutes to get ready this time she wasn't wearing her usual fluffy dress but more like a casual clothing of course with her favourite colour: pink - a pink stripped tee and a pale pink with a heart in the middle overalls.

After getting ready Bridget stared at her reflection in the mirror for a moment, feeling nervous even her palms sweating a bit. It felt weird to feel those symptoms or whenever these were, she had to take another deep breath and gain back her composure. She will meet him, no matter what.

The pink haired female stepped closer towards her dormitory room's door and quietly opened it then walked outside with a quiet footsteps like she stepped on clouds, her eyes closed when her door made a small creak which made her to curse in her mind but got going with her sneaking out of the academy before everyone else to get awake from their long slumber.

Successfully Bridget had sneaked out of the campus and the whole area of the academy to stay outside of the wooden doors, at the courtyard with crossed arms around her chest and waiting for the pirate to show up.

It passed almost fifteen minutes, a huff escaped from Bridget's lips.

"I knew it, it was some dumb joke of his..." Bridget muttered to herself, turning her body back towards the door until a voice stopped her from walking further back in the academy.

"My, my and I thought the princesses were patient." James hook was standing behind Bridget's back with cocky smirk on his face and the usual pirate attire of his. Bridget quickly turned around, a gasp escaping from her lips - gosh he knew how to make surprising appearances.

"I am patient." Bridget muttered with a form of protest and huffed softly - at least she was the punctual one from the both of them. A chuckle escaped from James's lips when Bridget muttered her protest in a grumbling manner, his eyebrow rose up and stepped closer towards Bridget, closing the small gap between them.

"Uh huh...anyways come. I told you I want to show you something." James said, turning his back to Bridget and start walking towards the path for the woods. For a moment Bridget stood glued on her spot, wondering what would they do in those woods - her mind went through with many scenarios what James Hook could do.

Her mind got snapped back in the reality when she heard James's taunting voice and felt his eyes on her even if he walked and glanced over his shoulder - "Ah come on, sugar cube. I'm not a serial killer just come."
