Desmond's POV

"I guess I should introduce you to one of my good friends," Edward says as we walk along the deck.

"Who? Blackbeard?" I joke, laughing.

"Actually, yes!" Edward says, and I nearly fall over. "How did you know?"

"I was kidding!" I exclaim.

"Silly little Desmond," Edward chuckles.

A man with a black beard, gold teeth, and a tattered hat walks out onto the deck, and Edward motions him over.

"Thatch! Come meet Desmond!"

Blackbeard walks over and grins.

"So this is the little one you were talking about!"

Why they keep calling me little, I don't know. But I do know that Blackbeard is standing right in front of me, and I don't know whether to be scared or amazed.

"Hey," I mumble. The pirate laughs and puts his hand on my shoulder.

"There's no need for you to be scared of me! Any friend of Edward's is a friend of mine!"

I grin and stand a little taller.

"Now look at you! Hopefully Edward can teach you the ropes around here," Blackbeard says, eyeing Edward. The blonde assassin nods, and Thatch thumps him on the back before walking down the deck.

"You don't even know how terrified I was," I mutter.

"Ah, I could tell how terrified you were. It was like you had seen Davy Jones himself!" Edward laughs. "Now come on, I'll teach you how to navigate the ship."

Edward begins walking towards the bow of the Jack Daw, and I can't help but chuckle.

I will never understand pirates.

A/N: I am so sorry about the short chapters! Ugh brain why you give me writers blocks like this?
Do you guys like the humour? I love it when I write something and it makes people laugh. It's my favourite.
