Lost in a Daydream

Chapter 9

While John hurried to the life boats, Killian is frozen wide eyed staring ahead.

"Killian you dumb ass, we need to move!" I urge pulling on his arm.

He blinks a few times but does not say a word. He simply walks behind me still in a daze. I find John who is just finishing untying the small boat. I do a quick scan of the ship, which only sparks more panic in the pit of my stomach. While I feel somewhat secure that I'll make it out, there are only two more boats. Not all the crew can make it.

"Okay, Julie, you get in the boat. Killian you can... Captain?"

Confused by John's expression I turn towards where Killian is standing, or should I say was standing. The Captain was making his way towards his quarters. Why now? I look towards John who is ushering me towards the boat, but something tells me I can't leave Killian to drown as much as I'd like to right now. I run after him, weaving my way through the crowd of panicked crew. When I reach his quarters I see him rummaging through his drawers.

"Killian we don't have time for this! Your ship will be completely underwater any minuet and damn it if I'm making it out alive so are you."

I can see how reluctant he is as he closes another drawer. He strides out of the quarters walking past me without saying a word. Seriously, what is this guys problem? I angerly stomp after him. We meet back at the life boat that John is fending off from others trying to jump aboard.

"If you want to make it out of here, I suggest you get on this boat now!" He yells as he pushes someone over the edge of the Jolly Roger. Wow okay that was hot. Wait... no I shouldn't be thinking of this now, or ever. Killian climbs on with ease but in doing so , the small boat sways making it difficult for me to get on. John notices and stops to graab the boat. At least someone's a gentleman. He follows my suit and cuts the rope after he is settled, lowering us towards the unforgiving sea.

"Captain, I'm unsure of our coordinants. Do you recall which way towards land?"

"Thirty degrees north-west. It will probably take us through the night to arrive. Now then shall we?"

A/N: I'm sorry how shitty this chapter is, I've been trying to study for exams. I promise the next will be better. Thank you to everyone who has read it so far.
