~You Belong To Me~

~Chapter 55~

~Arthur's point of view~

I looked at her locking eyes, "What are we exactly?" i asked. She looked at me confused, "What do you mean arthur?" she asked, i sighed and leaned closer "Are we lovers? just friends? or Just alliances?" i asked scared to hear her answer but This had to happen one day. She looked at me and cupped my cheeks gently, "Your the man of my life of course we're lovers But now what am i to you?!" she said smiling. I felt relieved, this was the first time someone showed their carness for me, the crew is nice and everything but were just friend This type of love was different "Of course the answer is too simple were together, inseparable." is said.  My mother thought i was an disgraceful  person because i would ignore my duties and play with the 'peasants', everyone in my family hated me except for my father. He was a great man and he taught me to be strong, "What's wrong?" she asked, i snapped back to reality and she was wiping the tears. I didn't even know i was crying, I felt so confused why was i crying? She kissed my forehead and stood up, "It's a party, there's no place for crying in this ship so get your butt up and let's join the others." she said very enthusiastically. I smiled and went outside were they were all drinking and laughing and eating. I sat down and joined them, "Hey capitan (captain) what where you and (y/n) doing in there, You guys did take a while to come out." said antonio smirking and wiggling his eyebrows. I rolled my eyes and poured myself a cup of beer. "I was healing her wounds." i said drinking from the cup. He started laughing and continued talking about random stuff. I was still lost in thought, I wanted to ask (y/n) so many questions about her mother because i'm pretty sure she got the need for power from her mother but then again what if it's a sensitive topic, i brushed it off for now and enjoyed the food.

~Your point of view~

After that talk i was a little confused of why he would ask that but i brushed it off. I saw My first mate all by himself sitting in a barrel in the corner far away from the table. Charles was sleeping all that excitement and sorrow made him tired, he did look like he hasn't slept in days. I do wonder why he didn't just stay at home with my uncles, And if they didn't want to stay at home then where was my uncle and aunt they wouldn't just let charles join a pirates ship knowing the dangers of it. I put this thought in the save file and walked up to my first mate. "Why aren't you talking with the crew?" I asked, He turned to look at me and smiled. "I don't feel comfortable talking with people i just met." he said looking at the ocean waves. I understood why after all he went to living in the streets even i wouldn't want to trust anymore. I Looked at the crew all enjoying themselves, I sighed how much i missed them. "Captain," he said, i turned around and looked at him humming in response. "My names Alexander Arvish" he said Smiling. Now that he mentions it i never really did get his name, i was relieved because i thought we forgot his name. We began talking about the most random stuff, " Hey Alexander why didn't you fight with the other men?" i asked. He thought for a moment and looked up at the night sky, "First because i knew none of them stood a chance against you and second because why would i want to kill you you're the first true friend i have and your always nice to me you never beat me or hurt me instead you help me and your kind and you saved me from the streets." he said. I felt bad for this kid, He went through to much for his age speaking of age i never knew his age he looks like he's in his teens. "How old are you?" i asked nervously. "well Im 28." he said. My cup of water immediately fell out of my hand, he was older than me and arthur yet he looked too young. "How old did you think i was Captain?" he asked chuckling at my sudden realization. "I thought you were a teenager you look so young." i said still in shock. "How old are you?" he asked I felt flustered "Well im 19." i said nervously fiddling with my thumbs. He was shocked and looked lost in thought "You're telling me your years younger than me but stronger than me and lived through All of this." he asked shocked. I smirked " yeap impressive right." i said standing up with pride, He stood up in front of me and gave me a tight hug i was shocked. "Your so young you shouldn't be seeing this much blood you should be out there enjoying life to its fullest." he said with a voice of concern. I sighed this isn't the first I've heard of my age and power. "What the bloody hell is happening here!" Shouted a now drunk Arthur as he stumbled towards us. I can't believe it the ruler of the seven seas can't hold his liquor,I walked over to him and helped him stand up properly. "Arthur calm down your just drunk." I said holding him up, he looked at me and furrowed his eyebrows "I have tried to stop myself...but your always having male friends it's not bloody fair it hurts me when I see you having fun with another man." He said about to fall backwards. He was jealous but I didn't want to have an argument with a drunk Arthur.  "Okay let's go" I said as I walked him to his bedroom. I took his coat off and say him down, he grabbed my back pulling me closer to him. He buried his face in my stomach, "I love you so much that I'm scared to loose you one day." He said loud enough for my ears to hear. I smiled and ruffled his golden locks, "time for bed mister." I said, he let me go and I laid him down fixing his pillow and pulling the covers on him.  As I was about to go he pulled my wrist making me fall on top of him,I stood up and he sat up also pulling me closer and burying his face in the crook of my neck. "I won't go to sleep until you tell me the words I want to hear." He mumbled loud enough for me to hear. "What words?" I asked he moved his hands to my waist an pulled me closer. "Don't tease me you know bloody well which words I want to hear come out from those precious lips of yours." He said looking up at me. I thought for a moment,"Captain kirkland i love you"   I said smiling at him. He went completely red and turned his head, "I didn't expect you to say it like that." He mumbled "like what?" I asked cupping his chin making him look at me. "Like the way you said,those words had meaning." He said avoiding eye contact. "Of course cause it's the truth why would I fake loving you!" I asked. He locked eyes and had tears in his eyes. "What's wrong now?" I asked wiping his tears with my thumb, "No one has ever said that to me." He said resting his head in the crook of y neck. I felt bad, "you better not make a hickey mister." I said wrapping my arms on his shoulders, he grabbed my hands and looks at me, "I don't want to claim you with that I want to claim you with my last name." He said. Now that I notice it when he's drunk he gets mood swings and is also sensitive and emotional. after those words I could feel my face heat up, he smirked and pulled me into a passionate kiss. After that he laid down a closed his eyes. I kissed his forehead and walked to the door "goodnight Kirkland." I said shutting  the  door behind me. Everyone was either asleep on the table or about to. I carried them all to their room and cleaned up the mess that they left, I let Alexander have my room and I slept in the same room as Charles. Today was a great day, I was glad to be here but something was wrong here i could feel it, I think Arthur and charles are hiding something from me but what?
