A pirate's life for me.

Chapter 8

I woke up to find myself hidden into the chest of Captain Jonathan. He slept with a smile on his face, it was surprisingly calming. I wanted to get up but I didn't wish to wake him, his arms tightened around me. I was pressed against his body, it was relaxful. I ended up falling back to sleep.

I woke up again to see Captain watching me with a grin, I sighed and sat up.

"You know your really creepy when you just stare at me like that. it gives me a feeling that you might actually care about me." I said, starting to look at the chest of cloths. 

"I wouldn't have saved you if I didn't care." He said looking at me.

"You have the pirate rules... rule number two: never let a child or woman be harmed." I said looking at him.

"well what if I was following rule number one? Always protect yer buddies..." he said with a grin. I rolled my eyes.

"That would imply that we are friends. And I hate you..." I said blankly as I tied my hair up.

"You don't hate me... you know you don't" he said, pulling me into his body. we sat still on the bed.

"Your a pirate, I hate you." I said looking straight at him.

"screaming my name when you thought I was gonna die... cuddling up to me while you sleep... and moaning my name in your sleep." he said with a self pleased smirk. I hit him away and glared.

"I didn't do that last part!" I said hitting him in the shoulder.

"Okay I lied about that part." He said with a chuckle. he then stood and went back to the maps. "But you can't say you hate me...without me you would be dead... or even worse."

"what's worse then that?" I asked, looking at him.

"Being a pirates slave." he stated and I shivered at the thought. he laughed and I looked at him.

 "Whatever... " I said and looked back at the cloths, I grabbed a long sleeve white dress shirt and black pants. I began getting changed and once I was done I looked over at him to see him focused on his maps. I walked over to him and sat on the table. "So why are you captain?"

"Because I am stunningly handsome." He blankly stated and I hit him. He smiled and rubbed his head.  "I don't tell about my past. so yer going to have to just believe that I'm just stunningly handsome."

"I don't believe in lies." I said and he looked at me raising an eyebrow.

"You don't think im handsome?" He said looking up at me, his eyes looked straight into mine and he came closer to me.

"Nope..." I said looking at him, wanting him to stay where he was.

"Then whats you type? Maybe Jacobs' type? Johnson? Smith?" I zoned out as he ranted names I didn't know, I came back as he was finishing up. "William? Nicholas? oh wait no I know.. you like bald men!" He said reminded me of the guy from yesterday. I clenched the table and his smile disappeared. He took my hand and sighed. "Calm yer self girly. I didn't let him have you did I?" Captain said leaning my hand against his lips.

"You were pretty damn close to being late." I said looking the other way, biting my lip and slightly shaking.

"I won't let it happen again." He said leaning his head against mine, I looked at him as he smiled and stepped back. "Go eat something... i'll be above soon." I nodded and got down from the table and went to the upper deck.

All the men were at work and I began walking along the deck and couldn't help but to smile when they smiled at me. I ended up also helping Johnson with something with the sails, not entirely sure what but I think we were just re-adjusting them for the wind. As I helped I saw Nicholas on top of the beams tying ropes, he looked over at me and smiled slightly. I thought of last night when he kissed me and looked away.
