The Forgotten Yankees (Belfast X Reader)

Ch 1 - Water

Thank you for the support. Especially for a series that isn't exactly easy to understand. I'm doing my best.

Enjoy.

It was morning time as the sun was just going up and above the water. As some of the ladies were just getting out of bed, there was someone already out and about. There were some that were going to sleep in until some came for them, some in a routine, and then this one was already up, dressed, and out the door. 

A while later the powerful and proud ship has a visitor. A woman in a maid outfit and a bright smile. "Good morning."

The woman pulled the covers down to her chest. "Belfast? What time is it?"

"About eight. I already have tea and thought since there is no activity for the last fifteen hours you should rest. Well deserved too Enterprise." Belfast put her serving tray down and started pouring the tea.

"If you insist." Sighed Enterprise and got up from the bed. "So then, any more news?"

"One of the Yankees has come aboard and some are a little concerned."

"Brooklyn?"

"No. Haven and her sister Fairfield have joined in."

"Thought you said Yankees. They sound more like New Englanders."

"The accents are rather on the other side. Connecticut has been divided in half from what I have gathered throughout time." Belfast handed Enterprise a cup. "Though I think you would know more."

"Fairfield. Hmmm. I want to say I met her before. I'm unsure." Enterprise was in deep thought. The name sounded familiar. She was trying to make out a face or a memory that transpired over the years. "I feel foggy based on the thought."

Belfast shook her head. "It is rather early. Now get dressed, have some tea, and we will see if Cleveland and the girls are around."

"Another mellow day?" Pondered Enterprise.

"For now. War is always up in the air."

"That is true." 

Belfast opened up the curtains. "I heard someone was already out there. I do wonder who."

"Someone like me?" Guessed Enterprise.

"You're stubborn, but not that bad. At least you have slowed down now. Before you were so drained your weapons couldn't even fire."

"I was mad and determined." Enterprise shrugged.

Belfast scoffed. "I beg your pardon? You were nearly off the rails. How's a lady supposed to function while being hurt, not eating right, or having proper rest?"

"Didn't you and Wales teach me that one?" 

"And you expect me to believe you would be fine all alone? My word. You might be speaking German if we haven't had snapped you out of your ways." Huffed Belfast.

Enterprise nodded. "You may be right. Especially that other time. If I can't fire then what good am I?"

"History that shouldn't have repeated itself. And what if you were alone? You could have died out there."

"That's when I learned my lesson. And why I am grateful for our morning tea time Belfast. Maybe, just maybe we should find the Yankee and see if we can convince her. We have to find out where she is first."

"Oh I'm sure it's Fairfield. After hearing her reports it is no wonder. Changes, modifications, repairs, delays. The poor girl."

"Must have been years." Agreed Enterprise. "Let's find her. There has to be something."

After morning tea Belfast cleaned up and tried to lead Enterprise to Fairfield's room. Hoping she wasn't up by now. Though as they entered her room it was empty. The bed was made as if no one was there the night before. The space was nearly empty as well. A waste basket that was uneventful, a desk with only a lamp and notepad on top, and then that was it.

"Out and about already? Think she's in the dining hall? It isn't ready for breakfast yet."

"Hmmm... if I had to think, she's on the water like I used to be."

Belfast gasped. "You think so?"

"Up early, on the water, and with meal replacement bars and bottled water to keep you going? I would say so."

The hours passed as at the horizon a woman with brown hair, brown eyes, and those tight jeans and with the tan boots made her stand out. There was not pretty dress on her and her hair was in a ponytail. She meant business. During this time she had a visitor.

"Hi-ya Sis." A woman who looked exactly like her. But she wore a black cocktail dress with her hair curly and down. "How we doing?"

"Yeah?"

"Oh I see. Well if that's the case, what the hell are ya doing? Ya killing me?"

"Me? Look at you? Looking all dolled up. Who's ya date?"

"Nobody. I came here to find you since Enterprise and Belfast came to my room. They was looking for ya."

"Ma-doane. Ya kidding me? What did the boss and the maid with the sweet ass want?"

"To say hello after everything I guess." Haven shrugged her shoulders.

"That's it? I don't buy it Haven." Huffed Fairfield. "You know I'm up early."

"I swear. You sleep woman?"

"What does it matter? I got up early because I had to pee. After that I got here." Fairfield turned away from her.

"Yeah. And Enterprise gave me a bath invitation. C'mon Fairfield. Why you doing this to me? Ya scaring everybody?"

Fairfield looked over the horizon. "Getting fresh with me? I'm doing my duties here."

"You're killing yourself trying to be on the front line."

"So what if I am?"

"I'm telling Commander." Threatened Haven.

"Good. Bye Toots. See ya for dinner."

Haven scoffed. "Seriously? Brat."

"Tramp."

"Hormones."

"Gawdy."

"Stombalots."

"La-fungul! (Fuck you)"

"Hmph. Fine. Bye." After that one Haven turned away in a huff. Continuing her walk on the water without being insulted. Wow she's been a bitch since she's got here. What happens if she meets Javelin and the girls? Then what? Lolis don't bitches ya dumbass.

Yes Fairfield and Haven are supposed to sound like New Yorkers. They're Yankees. It's in the title.
