Captain * NEW*

Chapter 12 - Air for Air

"I believe you." 

"Because I saw her too." I huffed. "What." He nodded. There where footsteps advancing towards the door. "But I can't explain right now Princess, we have to get you away from here." He pulled me off the bed. I pushed him away. "Why." He groaned. "Princesses do you not understand your situation, they're drugging you, and they will continue to do so, as long as you live. They think you've gone mad. In the king's eyes, you are dead." The footsteps neared. I looked at the Bandit. "Let's go." He picked me up. "What are you doing!?" I panicked. He grinned. "Do you trust me." 

"No." He glared at the window, next to us. "Good." 

My eyes widened. "You're not thinking of." He grinned. "Close your eyes, dear." I clenched every single nerve inside my body, holding tightly onto his neck. I screamed, into his shoulder, as we flew out of the window. I felt us fall, we were going to hit the ocean! But we never did. "You can open your eyes now." My eyes widened. "How is this possible! Are we f-fly-." He smirked. "Look up princess," A rope. Now that certainly made me feel foolish. I looked away, he laughed. "Wait, what now. We're just floating a few feet from the ocean." He grinned once more, though this grin seemed awfully suspicious. He looked at the rope.  

"Don't tell me." He nodded. "You know how to swim, right?" I aggressively shook my head no. "Then hold tight, because this is our only way out." I tightly gripped onto his neck as he secured his hand on my waist. "I'll kill you if we die." He smirked. "And how would you do that if you're dead." Why you. 

He let go. We fell deep into the ocean. I panicked and accidentally let go. "Dawn-!" The waves where harsh, they pulled me inside, trying to suffocate me. I held my breath as long as I could. I needed air. I saw a shadow come near. The bandit. He came close grabbing me by the waist, pulling our bodies together. He motioned. Something about his lips? What was he trying to say? My eyes widened feeling his lips crash onto my own I felt air enter my mouth. He quickly swam both of us to shore. I coughed, breathing in and out. He also was huffing. "That was close." He-he, that was my first... I avoided his eyes. "Come on," He pulled me up dragging me to, god know where. The ocean had thrown us to the opposite side of the palace. It was a tiny island, that was also part of the kingdom, but was abandoned. 

We entered the dark forest. I got closer to the bandit, "Scared?" He grinned. I shook my head no. He laughed, grabbing my hand. My eyes widened. This feels. "Ah-ha, there it is, right where I left it." He pulled away pulling up a bag that laid behind some trees. He pulled out some clothes. "Here, change, before you end up getting sick." He unbuttoned his shirt. My face lit up, with embarrassment. "What are you doing!" He looked confused then relized what was happening. He grinned. "Dear no one's forcing you to watch." I scoffed turning around. That-that. Idiot man. I looked down at my drenched nightgown, I was glad it was a black one if it would have been white, that would have been embarrassing. 

"Are you waiting for me to change you." I turned around seeing he was back in his normal attire, though this time he only wore a bandana on his head because his hat had gotten wet, his eyewear also managed to stay on. I glared. "Turm around." He looked very amused. "As you wish." I began to undress my self. "Was this your clothes." He nodded. "Like it." I slid on the long sleeve shirt that almost went down my knee almost. "Why so much black?" He looked up at the sky. "It makes it harder for the enemy to see you at night." I gulped. 

I had to remember that he was a bandit. I slid on the tousers, and they just flew back down. "Uhm, the trousers aren't staying on." He turned around. "Then don't wear them." My mouth flew open. "Hey why did you turn around! I could have been naked." His eyes stayed on my chest. My eyes widened, quickly covering my chest from his sinful eyes. "You-you- per." He grabbed the necklace that laid on my neck. 

"Who gave this to you." I looked down, harshly grabbing the necklace away from his hand. "Don't touch it." I looked down, remembering the day he gave it to me. "Someone very special gifted it to me." His eyes met mine. "Special." He said. I nodded. 

"Well, we should get going."  I followed close behind.

"So princesses, how was that for a first kiss."
