"What do you wish for?" Jim asked me for the hundredth time. "I'll give it to ya."

"I don't want anything!" I said irritated and sat down on a chair.

Jim and I had the honor to make some food for the crew because Silver wasn't feeling so good. I took a frying pan and put it on the stove.

"Besides, What would you even give me? Like there's not such a thing as a shop here dummy."

"I'll figure something out," he smirked and jumped up on the countertop next to the stove. "I just need a little information of what you have dear."

"What I have dear?" I chucked and found some mushrooms. "I have many things dear."

"Like what?"

"Like.." I wrinkled my forehead. What did I have dear? "Like.."

I looked at Jim who's eyes were wide open in excitement.

"You, I guess." I said and found a knife to cut the mushrooms.

"Awww! How sweet!" He exclaimed and jumped down from the countertop. "Somebody has a crush!" He yelled and I almost hit him with the knife.

"Shut up! I don't! You're just a really good friend.. especially when you look at all the others men around here."

He laughed for a bit and then stopped.

"I'm gonna find something anyway, and you can't stop me!"

"Whatever," I muttered with a little smile on my lips. "Go ahead and do what you want."

Late late night I woke up because someone gently knocked on my door. I muttered irritated and got up and opened the door where Jim was with his cringe smile.

"Well good evening beautiful," he smirked. "Are you ready for your present?"

"Jim.. it's like 02:00 am.. what are you doing?"

Without getting an answer he grabbed my wrist and led me to the deck where a table with a candle on fire and two chairs stood. I looked up and saw how he had decorated the sails with small lights.

"What.. are you doing?" I asked him again with confusion in my voice.

"Sit down my lady and I'll get the last things ready."

I obeyed and he disappeared down the stairs to the kitchen and came again with a big silver plate where meat and bread were on it. He put it on the table and sat down across me with a smile.

"Dig in."

"Jim.. as I said.. it's 02:00 am and I can't eat anything right now."

He looked disappointed and I couldn't help but feel bad for him. I grabbed his hands and gave him a little smile.

"But hey.. thank you for this."

That made him bright up a little and suddenly he grabbed my arm and pulled me up. He led me to the edge of the ship and pointed up in the sky.

"Look," He said. "That star is only there because it's your birthday. That's your special star.."

I looked at him and he looked at me. He bit his bottom lip and I couldn't lie.. I felt a bit turned on. I tried to behave, but too late. Before I knew of it his lips were connected with mine in a passionately, wet kiss.
