The Heart And Soul Of The Sea\\ Thomas Nickerson x reader (discontinued)

Night : 1

~~Your POV ~~

You and Thomas enter the dining room where the other members of the crew were. Unfortunately Mr.Chase wasn't able to join you two, due to him being a higher rank in the ship membership. You ears are filled with the drunken laughter of the crew. You scanned the room to see if you could find a place to sit with Thomas. "Over there," You heard Thomas say pointing to an empty table near the corner of the room. "No one is sitting there. I bet it will be quiet there." He starts to head over to the table, so you followed. It was gradually getting quieter while you strolled to the table. You sat down in your seat, but Thomas was still standing. "Tom? What are you doing?" You appealed. "I'm going to get us our dinner. They're serving..." He quickly looked behind him and saw a dish with potatoes. "I think  they're serving a potato and leak soup... or some other dish with potatoes in it." He shrugged , then bowed in a gentlemanly way and walked off. You giggled and waited there patiently for your meal. 'Maybe next time I can get the food for the both of us as a thank you.' You pondered. You scan the room to see what every one else was doing. Everything seemed fine until you saw three men. One was sitting on a wooden stool and the other two were kneeling on both sides of the man. He seemed to be carving something but you didn't know what It was. You shuffled a bit closer and saw what he was carving, it was a wooden woman... TOPLESS!?  You were furious at the sight. But what they said made you even madder. 

"Who's this beautiful  looking woman 'ere?" A man with a cat like grin said.

"A beaut isn't she? Too bad she ain't my wife!" All three men cackled at that pathetic joke.

You grimace at those men and quickly turned your attention to Tom putting down a plate in front of you. "Thank you Tom." You politely say. "No problem princess." He gave you a small wink causing you to heat up a bit. "Princess?" You inquired. "Yeah... No? Too weird?" 

"Yeaaahh, a bit." After that there were a few seconds of silence you decided to break the ice. "So... were you correct about it being potato and leak soup or..." You questioned. "Oh! No, it wasn't potato and leak soup. The people serving me said that it was apparently a ' Carrot and potato stew'."  Thomas exaggerated the meal's name. You lightly chuckled before grabbing a spoon and started eating, it tasted... quite weird. Your face conforms into a confused look, you finished that mouthful of food and turned to look at Tom. "You were right about it," Thomas gave you a questioning look. "Before you said it apparently  was 'Carrot and potato stew'. The key word being apparently." Thomas almost spat out his food due to him about to burst out loud laughing, but was able to hold it in. You too also giggled at your comment. 

(Small time skip)

After finishing your meal, you decided to break the silence you and Thomas were sharing throughout the meal. "Do you have any talents?"  He was a little taken aback by this but was quick to recover. "Uhm yeah, I am pretty good at gymnastics. (if it even existed back then...) Do you?" 

"Yes... but it is a bit strange..." 

"Go on..." Thomas encouraged. 

"I have quite a few... but I'll show you two of them. Well, I can clap with one hand. With both hands...." You said slowly. "May I see?" You then got your hands into position and did a gesture like this. (Picture/gif)
