His Feisty Tiger

10

Okay ik I've already published this before, but it accidentally got unpublished cause my phones retarded, so here's chapter 10 again😂

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Okay, Harry you got this, just go in there and tell Uma the truth'I walked through the Isle making my way towards the Chip Shop. I ran a hand through my hair as my hook hung loosely on my belt, chains making a loud jingling noise as I walked. 'Fucking hell, where's my hat?' People instantly moved to the side as I walked, not wanting to know what happens if they got in my way. 'Shit that's right, I gave it to (Y/n), she wanted to wear it for a bit' a smile graced my lips as I let out a small chuckle at the thought of my, now official girlfriend, wearing my hat. My breath hitches as I stopped at the Chip Shop, I stood outside pacing for a bit 'she's gonna be pissed, shit, how am I supposed to explain this to her, I'm going to loose my best friend because of this...' I ran a hand through my hair one more time before sighing, unhooking my hook and putting it on my hand. "Here goes nothing.." I mumbled as I swung open the doors.

Right as I opened the doors Uma didn't even have to look up, she already knew it was me"your late" I watched her throw a tray of food in front of a customer as she turned around, her braids flying in different directions as she did, her arms crossed across her chest. I straightened my posture a bit as I walked over to her "I know love, but I've been meaning to talk to you about something" of course when she's around the crew she doesn't shower me with love and affection, a captain has to keep there status which I understood completely, she can't show anyone sympathy. Even if your her first mate, and lover, well, ex lover soon enough. "What do you need Har?" She walked over behind the counter, I followed closely and took a seat on a stool "Well, ya see, I-" Gil suddenly bursted through the doors, a flat out smile on his face "You guys are never gonna believe this!" Uma looked up annoyed "What is it Gil?" She said boredly as he laughed a bit and took a seat next to me"Get this, so I was at the docks right? And (Y/n), Mal, Jay, Carlos, And Evie were all there, they were talking but I couldn't here what about, all I know is that these goblin's took them somewhere in a boat." Uma angrily got up from her seat"Those scumbags must've found a way off this dreadful island!" Uma suddenly took her sword out and slammed it on the table"God damn it! We're supposed to be the ones getting out of here! Not them! I hope there boat sinks and they drown." I sat there a bit silent as I gripped the table in a bit of anger 'she wouldn't leave me, would she? No,she wouldn't.... but what if she did?' My hair fell over my face, I didn't bother to move it away, looking up at  Uma I could see the anger and jealousy in her eyes. 'I can't tell her now, she needs to cool down.' I got up and walked off to the door "And where the hell are you going?" Uma yelled, I just turned around while a smirk graced my face "to go steal some shit, captain" I bowed at the word 'captain' causing Gil to yell"Hey, where's your hat?" I widened my eyes and stood back up but never the less shrugged it off and came up with an excuse" left it back at me dad's I'll pick it up la'er" I went to go turn around when I felt Uma's eyes burning through the back of my skull "your lying." I froze. 'Shit. Curse my damn accent' I stood still as a lump formed in the back of my throat, the whole shop was silent, of course people knew about our relationship, we just weren't the couple for PDA because of Uma's reputation as captain. "Your accent comes out more when you lie, so tell me Harold" she paused as she was now right behind me, she swung one of her hands on the wall beside me, she was shorter than me, but she could be very intimidating when she wants to. I stayed quiet as she continued"Why would you lie about your hat?" I stayed quiet not knowing what to say "does this have to do with the so called 'project' " I looked away a bit, causing my hair to cover my forehead more as she leaned back and laughed, it wasn't a funny laugh, it wasn't an angry laugh, I could practically feel the hurt in it and sadness. I turned around to look at her, I felt terrible, Uma, Gil and the crew are all family, and I don't want to do anything to hurt them. "How long..?" She didn't look up at me as I just stared at her unable to get words out, a sneer plastered on her face. "How long have you had feelings for her Harold!?" Her sword now was out as she pointed it as me, I didn't flinch, I knew she was in pain, I shook my head a bit and looked her in the eyes "For a couple of months now, actually..." she widened her eyes and glared at me while going to send a punch to my face, I closed my eyes and waited for the pain to hit, it didn't come. I slowly opened my eyes only to be met with Uma's brown eyes filling with tears as she bit her lip and shook her head. She silently brought her fist down and put her sword back in her sheath as she calmly walked off towards the kitchen. "Uma, wait! I-" I followed after her and grabbed her arm gently when she ripped it out of my hand and turned around"DON'T! Harry..." she looked down a bit trying to stop herself from breaking down in tears in front of everyone"just don't." With that she swiftly turned around and walked off slamming the kitchen doors shut. I looked around at everyone to see them all staring at me, I clenched my fist in anger and pointed my hook at all of them"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ALL STARING AT!?" They quickly all turned away as I huffed in anger, Gil walked over to me and rested a hand on my shoulder"Just give her time" I stared at the kitchen doors as I nodded my head"Ya, thanks Gil" he may not be the smartest, but he's always there for us whenever we need him. Gil smiled and sat down on one of the stools, "I'm going for a walk" I mumbled as I walked out the door. 'That's not how I wanted her to find out, this shit stresses me out' I ran a hand through my hair as I stole stuff from people on the street. 'I'll just let her be for a bit, when she's ready she'll talk to me.' I walked through the entrance of Curl Up and Dye, my boots echoing through the practically empty room, as a nasty grin graced my lips. I watched Dizzy freeze, her back was facing me as the sound of my chains moving echoed, " 'Ello, Dizzy." She turned around slowly "fork it over four eyes" I stuck out my hand as she quickly ran to the cash register. 'This is gonna be fun'
