Noble and Pirate

Chapter 4

"Finally somewhere other than the ship! Village!" I headed to the main deck with my friends. It has been several weeks I stayed here and I must say it's not that all bad. "You seems happy yuu-kun" yoichi chuckled and I nodded. "Well yeah. It's getting boring staying here and doing the same thing everyday." I said and the ship sailed at the port. "Stop complaining midget. You're the one who decided to come here in the first place so suck it up." kimizuki said. I really wanted to punch his face so bad but I want to enjoy my day today without doing anything stupid. I huffed and crossed my arms. "Today is a day off to you but not for us, we have to buy supplies. Yoichi has to buy food supplies, shinoa has to buy more bandage and medical pills and so are the others." mitsuba said and I tilted my head. "Then I'll be alone for the time being?" I asked then I suddenly felt someone yanked the back of my shirt. "You'll be coming with me since you have so much free time." captain mikaela rolled his eyes and I stood still without saying a word which he arched his brow.

"What's this? So obedient. Did you hit your head or something? Your action last night was wild though" he let go of my shirt and stared down at my face. I bit my lower lip and stared back at him then looked away. I felt guilty after I heard about his past from lacus that I couldn't even to look at him now. "I'm sorry..last night?" shinoa asked. "Oh yes last night this midget went all the way-" "shut the fuck up!" I covered his mouth. "A-all the way?" yoichi asked while there's clearly a tint of blush on his cheeks. "No you're getting the wrong idea!" I desperately tried to explained but the captain step up and said something that made my blood boiled with rage. "It's exactly what you think." he lied and my friends gaped. "Stop lying to them! Guys don't believe him." I said. "Then what did you do last night?" mitsuba asked. "I just scream that's all.." I said. "You're screamer huh? I never knew you're this gay." kimizuki added and I almost choke my own saliva. "Hell no! I just screamed at him for being such a heartless guy." I replied. "So you don't deny them that you're gay?" captain mikaela said and I blushed. "Shut up you!" I shouted and walked away but I heard kimizuki said 'he still didn't deny the gay part though.'. I ignored them

Captain mikaela and I stroll around town to get... even I don't know what he wanted to buy and I didn't bother to ask. I walked beside him while looking at my surrounding. "Uh hey.. is okay for me to walk around freely like this? Without a handcuff or something to tied me." I asked and he gave me an amuse smile. "I see.. a pest like you into those kind of thing hm?" he joked and I elbowed him hard. "Fuck you. I meant aren't you scared if I might ran away?" I asked and he let out a scoff. "We had a deal. If you ran away, then how are you suppose to get home? Ask someone to sail there for you? As if. And you're in the middle of running away from engagement right?" he stated and I looked down. He's right, I'm at disadvantage here. We walked silently until my eyes landed at a flower shop. I stop my track and looked at the flowers from outside the window. I'm always amazed with flowers since I was a kid. Some people might say its useless because they're going to die soon but to me it's not. The way they bloomed beautifully and made people feel happy even for a short while.

"Still not going to admit that you're gay?" he suddenly asked and I scoffed. "What's with you with this gay thing? What about you? You're gay?" I smirked and he shrugged. "As long as they have a hole for me to fuck then i'll go for it." he said it casually and I felt I lost respect for him. Well almost. "Unbelievable." I place my hand on my forehead and shook my head in dismay.

"Aww come on. Play with us just a bit." a voice said. "N-no." a woman voice replied. I turned around and I saw a group of guys surround a woman who was cornered by them not far from me. One of the men grabbed her wrist and she tried to yanked her hand back while asking for help but no one bothered to help. "Hey. We have to help her." I glanced over at captain mikaela and he gave me deadpan expression ."The path of inner peace begins with four words." he said and I confused why he suddenly said that. "And that is?" I ushered him to continue. "Not my fucking problem" he spoke. "You satan!" I shouted. "Angry? Take a deep breath before you speak, because your mouth acts quicker than your brain." he said and I had enough of him.

I ran towards them and stood in front of the woman who was trembling with fear. "It's alright I'm here." I glanced at her and gave a warm smile. "What the hell? Who are you-" one of the men paused and peered closer to me. "What a nice brooch you got there." the man cackled and his hand moved to reach for my brooch. "Hands off." captain mikaela suddenly pointed his sharp sword at the man in front of me. "You're messing with the wrong guy. I'm warning you. He's mine." he scraped the man's hand until I could see blood. My heart race when I heard he said that I'm his. No yuu! Now is not the time and why the fuck would I be happy hearing him said that. "Tch lets go." they went away. The woman behind me fell on the ground and let out a relieved sighed while she placed her hands on her chest. I crouched and held her shoulder. "Are you okay? They didn't hurt you right?" I asked with concerned and she shook her head and she smiled.

"I'm fine sir. Thank you so much." she thanked me and I helped her up. "Go back home safely okay. See you." as I was about to turn away, she place her hands on my chest and stared up at me. "Um if you don't mind, want to have some tea with me before you go? As my gratitude." she shyly asked and I could see her face was red as tomato. "He's busy accompanying me today so he can't. Good day." captain mikaela grabbed my hand and dragged me away from the woman. "That's rude you know." I tried to squirm out of his grasp but he only tighten his grip even more. "Just stay with me you idiot. You caused me a lot of trouble today" he said and I huffed. I looked at where our hands intertwine. His hand is slightly bigger than mine and very warm. I followed behind him. "About what you said just then that I'm yours.. what do you mean by that?" I hesitantly asked. "Isn't it obvious? I have to return you back to your home and get that brooch of yours." he stated and for some reason I felt my heart squeeze painfully. "You know you could just steal this away and kill me. But why wouldn't you?" I muttered and he chuckled. "Now where's the fun in that hm? I'll enjoy your lousy company for a while longer and if I changed my mind, I'll just kick you off from my ship." he stated. After he said those words. I felt hurt...
