Misguided Jealousy
Chapter One
Shachi was pissed, to say the least. He was just as every bit as handsome as Penguin was! So, why was it that every time they went, Penguin was the one that had all of the girls swooning and throwing themselves all over him? Wasn't he good enough? He should have been the one that the women were throwing themselves at, not Penguin! To put it mildly, Shachi was jealous.
Shachi looked into the mirror that hung on the wall of his room that he shared with Penguin. Shimmering green eyes looked from behind sunglasses at his reflection. Was it is hair? Did Penguin have more of a 'mystery' quality, because they couldn't see his hair? Maybe he should cut it?
He let out a sigh, before walking over to the bunk bed that was within the submarine room. He climbed onto the bottom bunk, that actually belonged to Penguin, and laid down, kicking off his boots. He tore off his sunglasses and hat, and placed them both on the floor. He snuggled into a pillow that Penguin often hugged at night, inhaling the scent. For some strange reason, his friend's scent always brought him a strange comfort. He could never explain why, but it helped him sleep at night. He figured that Penguin would be in town all night, so he could get away with a quick nap in the bill-hatted man's bunk. He let his emerald eyes flutter shut, deeply inhaling that sweet and musky scent.
Penguin sighed as he took a sip of his beer. He was currently sitting on a couch in the bar that the majority of the Heart Pirates were currently in. Two girls were sitting on either side of him, both trying to get his attention.
One was a rather busty redhead who was dressed in a very low-cut black dress, while the other was a slim woman with straight black hair and a rather voluptuous bottom. Her dress was multi-coloured and skin tight, showing off all of her curves, making up for her lack of chest.
"Oh, Mister!" The redhead chuckled, setting her hand on his thigh. She was drunk as a skunk, and her alcohol-laden breath reeked when she breathed in his face. Penguin tried not to back away, especially because he would be within kissing distance of the dark-haired woman, who was equally drunk.
"Can we take your hat off?" The dark-haired woman asked, reaching for the yellow-and-blue billed hat.
"I'd rather you didn't," Penguin replied, tilting his head away from her reach. He gently removed the redhead's hand from his thigh and stood.
"Where are you going?" The girls slurred and whined together.
"To get another beer," the hatted man replied nonchalantly. In all reality, he had no plans of going back to the couch with the two drunken women. The jump suited man left the bar, breathing the cool night air deeply. It was slightly sobering, and very welcome.
Penguin walked down the quiet streets of the small town they were currently docked at, shoving his hands in his pockets, and letting his thoughts drift back towards the sub, where Bepo and Shachi were keeping watch. Shachi would probably be asleep in his bed.
The thought made him chuckle – even though Shachi didn't want him to know, Penguin still knew that he would sometimes snuggle into his bed whenever he didn't have to watch the ship. He thought it was adorable, but he would never tell his best friend that. After all, it only boosted his ego a bit, and made him think…
Penguin sighed, and shook his head. He knew that it was impossible, but a man could dream, couldn't he? The bill-hatted male walked a few laps around the town, before he went to the small, rinky-dink inn that their crew had occupied.
He stepped inside the inn, and made his way up the stairs to the room that Captain Law had deemed as his for the week that they were to be staying there. He opened the door, and entered the dark room. Moonlight flooded into the room thanks to a rather large window in the wall. Penguin closed the door, locked it, then sauntered over to the window.
He could see their yellow home floating at the dock from his window. The hatted male unlatched the window and pushed it open to the let cool night air, accompanied with the sea breeze, swirl lazily into his room to make him feel a bit more relaxed.
Penguin walked over to his bed, and sat down on the cushy mattress. He kicked off his boots, removed his hat and stuck it on the bedside table, and began to unzip his jump suit.
He reached up to undo the button at his collar, and his long fingers grasped at the zipper, pulling it down until it was fully unzipped. The male shrugged his body out of the jump suit, so that he remained in a black wife beater and his boxers. Penguin let himself flop down onto the bed, so that he could fall asleep. He let his eyes slide closed, and let his mind wander as he waited for sleep to overtake him.
