'Seonghwa is our guest for now, so please be nice to him.' Hongjoong announces at the dinner table.

The 6 crew members all answer, some normally, some lazily.

'He's from the capital. So we'll be helping him get back home.' Hongjoong announces.

'Why are we putting aside our schedule just to help the stranger?' Jennie asks from the other side of the table. Her legs are up on the table as she has a lollipop in her mount again.

'Firstly, get your legs off the table. Secondly, stop being so rude to our guest.' Hongjoong orders the girl but she scoffs.

'He's just some stranger we saved, not really a guest is it?' Jennie says as she takes her lollipop out.

'I'm the captain, and I make the orders, got it?' Hongjoong says seriously and the girl shrugs.

'Okay grandpa.' She says and the male rolls his eyes.

Seonghwa looks to the girl with a raised eyebrow. Hongjoong notices and sighs.

'Sorry, she's always weird like this. Anyways, please have some food while it's warm.' Hongjoong says and Seonghwa nods.

The captain has introduced the other crew to him, and they all seem too friendly to be pirates.

'Have some bread, handsome.' Wooyoung says to him. He was the drunk head who Seonghwa was going to take out a few days ago, so he remembered him easily.

'Thanks.' Seonghwa says quietly as he takes the bread. He's always been quiet and calm, and so the loud crew is a new experience for him.

'Would you like water?' San asks the prince. Seonghwa nods and shows a rare smile.

'You're quite muscular, are you a soldier by any chance?' Mingi says as he eyes Seonghwa's body.

'Yah you sound like a creep.' Jennie says and Mingi looks at the girl with a pout.

'You're so mean.' Mingi says and hits her arm a little too hard, making her drop her lollipop. The male gasps.

Jennie looks down at her lollipop on the ground, and looks up slowly at the clumsy guy.

'Do you have a death wish?' Jennie says and splashes water at Mingi. The guy's eyes widen.

'Oh no you did not.' Mingi says as he wiped the water from his face.

'Guys please, not today.' Jongho says as he stops eating for a second.

'I suggest you sit back for a moment.' Yeosang tells the wounded guy. Seonghwa does so as the quiet guy says.

'You're so immature!' Mingi says as he grabs Wooyoung's beer but the girl grabs her own beer first and pours it on him.

'Yah you two stop it.' Hongjoong orders but Mingi takes his plate and throws it at the girl.

'Food fight!' Wooyoung shouts and joins in, throwing the bread he was eating at Jennie's head.

The three start to throw the food around, and Jongho joins in after Wooyoung gets ketchup on his shirt. He breaks the apple in his hand in half before throwing it at the blond.

'I swear they're not always this weird.' Hongjoong says and Seonghwa nods with a forced smile. He watches the group of adults throw their food around.

He watches the girl who looked at him with a deadly intent, throwing a banana peel at her friend which ends up getting on his shirt.

The group stops as they all look at the guest.

'For fuck sake guys! Won't you stop being immature for once! Apologise to our guest.' Hongjoong shouts as Seonghwa takes the peel of him, placing it on the table.

'It's okay. Let's just eat.' Seonghwa says. 'Well, what's left of the dinner.'

Jennie chuckles and leaves the dinning room.

'I'm not hungry, you guys finish up.' She says as she leaves covered in food and water. Hongjoong shakes his head at the childishness of his crew.

'Sorry, our crew members all share one brain cell.' Yeosang says and Seonghwa scoffs. He finds the change of scenery from the palace amusing.

'They're funny.' Seonghwa says and shows a soft smile.

'Oh? You know how to smile?' San says innocently as he sees Seonghwa.

'Mr guest do you want some beer?' Wooyoung asks as he holds up his mug. Seonghwa shakes his head.

'I'm fine thanks.'

'Are you sure- ouch! What was that for?!'

Wooyoung rubs his head after Yeosang hits him with a spoon.

'He's still recovering, are you crazy? Offering him alcohol?' Yeosang scolds.

'It's good for disinfection!' Wooyoung says and Yeosang shakes his head while sighing.

'Can you stop being drunk for a moment of the day?' Yeosang says and Wooyoung grins. He takes another sip of his beer.

'You only live man, live a little.' Wooyoung says and gets up to get more beer from the kitchen for himself. He nearly slips on the way as he steps on the pile of ketchup Jongho threw.

Seonghwa's not sure why fate brought him to a group of pirates, but he's thankful he's saved by people like them.
