Applying for a job as an Alaskan crab Fisherman is a crazy idea. But applying as an Alaskan crab Fisherwoman is practically insane. Obviously not if your Jassmyn Walker. A firey, ambitous young woman. With her long term friend Jake Anderson's help, she was offered a job as a Deckhand on the 'Cornelia Marie', which she couldn't refuse! But she never expected to fall in love while on the boat!

Okay guys, so this is my new story based on the Discovery Channel's documentry series, "Deadliest Catch." I love the show! It's amazing! Hope you like this!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything! Except for Jassmyn and the 'Magician.' They're mine. ^o^


-The Landing-

Bitter cold snow fell through the darkening sky, before it landed on the ground, creating another thin layer of snow. Jake Anderson leant against his car, watching the snow fall to the ground, before his gaze drifted to a plane landing on the ground. Today was the day one of his friends flew over, to become a Crab fisherman. Correction.. Fisherwoman. Watching people step off the plane, Jake headed towards the steps leading off it, his hands in his pockets and his shoulders scruched upwards for body warmth. His hood was wet from metling snow, and he looked like he was freezing on the spot. Jake looked around and back at his car, which snow had started to build on, before looking back the the plane, watching the last person step out of the plane.

A smile crept over his face as the person approached him, but shortly after, came a huge grin as he opened out his arms, as a woman flung herself into them.

"Jassmyn!" exlaimed Jake, feeling the young woman wrap her arms around him. Jassmyn grinned, her white teeth visible through the heavy snow falling. Saying a simple, "Hello, Jake," she smiled even more.

"You haven't changed, ya know." Jake laughed, remebering when they were little, and how they used to play together all the time, even if he was 5 years older than Jassmyn at 28. Jake's eyes traveled over Jassmyn's body and features, even though her face hadn't changed, she was noticably taller and more womanly.

Put simply, Jassmyn was a beautiful young woman. Her face was a perfect oval shape, her pretty hazel brown eyes constantly had a warm glow to them, and her meduim length, layered brown hair rested in side bangs lightly over her forehead. Her fair skin always remained clear, and her eye lashes always thick, as if she would be permanantly wearing mascara, when in fact, she never wore make up. She never saw the point in it. Her perfect small nose looked cute on her face, and her cute small ears had lobe peircings on them. Jassmyn had a body women would die for. Her sexy curves would be visible in all the clothes she wore, and her smooth, slim stomach would be noticable when she wore T-Shirts.

Jassmyn smiled warmly at Jake, before looking at the sky and jokingly saying, "Don't you just love Alaskan weather?" which made Jake chuckle as he took her black duffle bag off her, chucking it into the back of his car as he sat in the drivers seat, while Jassmyn climbed into the passenger seat.

"So.. How's you Mom, Jass?" Jake asked while driving steadily on the road, knowing Jass would cuss him if he didn't.

"Oh.." muttered Jass, wanting to drop the subject of her Mother. Jassmyn's mother had recently been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, and would need to undergo surgery for the removal of it. Which was basically why Jassmyn was there. Fishing for a crab. A quick way to earn the money for the surgery.

"Uh.. She's doing okay, I suppose. Seen her lately?"

"Nah, I haven't really had time. I'll probably go see her when we're off season. That's if Sig lets us go home."

"Oh.. Okay then." Silence over came them both for a while, but was broken by Jassmyn, as she curiously asked something that had been on her mind for quite a while.

"What are the Cornelia Marie crew like?"

The 'Cornelia Marie' crab boat, the ship she would be working on. Captained by the one and only Phil Harris. 39 meters long, 8.5 meters wide. Decorated with blue and yellow paint. The boat she always adored as a child. Jassmyn had some experience on Crab boats, working on the 'Magician' which her Father owned and Captained. But unfortunately, soon after Jassmyn had traveled to England to train as a Nurse, her Father was tragically killed in a car crash. Black ice. Dangerous stuff.

"They're interesting." Jake replied, and that's all he would say. "But we do have at least 3 days until the season starts, so you will probably see them before then."

"That's the most information I have ever recieved Jake. Thank you!" said Jassmyn sarcastically, while Jake just smiled and replied, "No Problem!"


-Meeting the Harris Brothers-

Jake looked at Jassmyn, who was sleeping peacefully against the window of his car. Slowly pressing his foot on the brake pedal, Jake slowed his car to a stop. Pressing the hand-brake down, Jake looked out the window of his car. Still snowing, huh? He thought to himself, his gaze returning to Jassmyn as he poked her, watching her open her eyes and jolt upwards.

"Did I fall asleep?" Jassmyn asked, looking around dumbstruck. Jake nodded, stepping out of his car and pulling Jassmyn's duffle bag out of the back. Jassmyn stepped out of the car too, her Millitary Style Boots touching the snow covered ground with a 'squish.'

The cold air hit her hard, causing goosebumps to form on her arms, even thought she was wear a T-Shirt, Hoodie, and a big rain coat. Her legs instantly felt numb, and she cursed herself for wearing skinny jeans and not checking the weather forecast.

'Stupid me.. I should have know better than this! It's Alaska afterall!' She thought to herself, wiping snow off her face and pulling her hood up. Taking her duffel bag off Jake, she looked around, realising she was in Dutch Harbour. She could just about see all the docked boats, amoung them the 'Northwestern' and 'Cornelia Marie', which were both coverered in a thick layer of snow.

Jassmyn smiled to herself, starting to get slightly excited about being back on a crab boat, but she then remembered that Jake had said they don't leave for the season for at least 3 days. A voice snapped her out of her daydream. It was Jake's.

"Hey, Mini! You coming or what!" Mini was Jassmyn's nickname, which Jake had made up for her. Jassmyn was fairly short when she was a child, and was still smaller than most people she knew at 5ft 6inch. Jassmyn quickly followed him, not really knowing where he was going.

"Jake! Where are we goingggg? And who the hell calls me 'Mini' anymore!" Jassmyn moaned, only to be pulled into a warm building. It turned out to be a bar. A fairly large one at that. The floor was covered in patterned red carpet, which came to a halt about 2 meters from the bar, where the carpet was replaced with wooden floorboards. The walls were fairly dull, with a dirty white colour spread over them, which was topped with old photographs and paintings of fishing boats and crab boats. All the chairs and tables were made from wood, with a dark varnish coating them, causing them to shine in the light. The room was full of bright lights, which hung from the ceiling and were fixed to the walls. The atmosphere was something new to Jassmyn. Music could be faintly heard over people's voices. Everybody was laughing and joking with each other, or shouting jokingly insults at each other. It was something new, and it was certainly better than what she was used too. She liked it.


Shaking her head slightly and looking at the floor, Jassmyn laughed slightly, swinging her bag over her shoulder. "I hope your gunna buy me a drink, Jake" laughed Jassmyn, following him up to the bar and glancing around, noticing the bar was pretty much full, with the exception of a few spare places around the large room.

"No way! Your buying me one!" Jake said teasingly, already ordering drinks. Turning around, he handed Jassmyn a Coca-Cola, with a grin on his face, before he looked towards a table, approaching it, knowing Jassmyn would follow. Taking a sip of the Coca-Cola, Jassmyn noticed that people were sitting at the table.

Two young men, casually sitting and drinking from their bottles of beer, joking with each other. One of the males looked over towards Jake and herself, smiling and shouting out to Jake. He looked the slightly older of the two males. He wore a black cap, and a black sweater, with white bold words on it reading 'DC SHOES,' and some plain dark wash jeans. His skin was a lovely tanned colour, almost the same as Jassmyn's. Jassmyn quickly noticed he had a black beared and brown eyes that could melt anyone's heart, and his body didn't lack muscles.

On the other side of the table, sat who looked the younger of the males. This male wore a brown beanie covering most of his his dark brown hair. He too had those gorgeous hazel eyes that were glowing as they came over Jake and Jassmyn. This man wore casual clothes, as did what seemed his brother. This man wore dark wash jeans, a black, white, blue and grey plaid shirt, which had folded sleeves revealing tattoo's up one of his arms. He too had that lovely tan similar to Jassmyn's, and Jassmyn could tell he was around the same age as her, and he too had muscles. 'Ohhhhh, God..' Jassmyn knew she was a sucker for plaid and tattoo's.

"Hey, Josh! What's up, man?" Caused Jassmyn to snap out of her thought's, and once again, it was Jake who had caused her too. Realising that Jake had made his way over to the table, and was now sitting down with the two males, Jassmyn awkwardly approached them too, wondering who they actually were. Closing in on them, the two unknown males turned and looked at her, shocked to see any other woman except the barmaid, which Jake calmly sat next to the older male, taking a quick sip of his beer before introducing Jassmyn.

"Josh, Jake, this is Jassmyn. Oh, and Jass, you can sit down yanno, they're not gunna eat you."

A small, shy, adorable smile crept over Jassmyn's face as she muttered a sweet, "Hey." It was one of those smiles that could melt a tough guy's heart in a second. The young men, known as Josh and Jake, stared at Jassmyn with warm smiles, their eyes looking over her slender body. Feeling slightly uncomfortable under a strangers gaze, Jassmyn twitched and looked a different direction.

"Hi there, my names Josh Harris." The older male stood and held out his hand, while the younger male moved over on the seat. He was sitting on one of the longer seats that curve around a table, with soft cushions to keep you comfy. Jassmyn took the older males hand gently and shook it, while her lips curved into a wider smile.

"Nice to meet you, Josh." Her eyes travelled to the younger male, sitting casually, waiting for his older brother to let go of the womans hand so he could introduce himself. "And you must be Jake, huh?"

"Oh.. Yeah, heheh." Smiled Jake, following his brother lead and also shaking Jassmyn's hand as she sat down beside him, dropping her duffle bag on the floor beside the wooden table.

"You never told us you had a girlfriend, Jake." Jake Harris looked at his friend, a wide grin on his face.

"She isn't my girlfriend! She's my friend!" Replied the blue eyed man. Causing the Harris brothers to laugh and turn to Jassmyn.

"So, what's a pretty woman like you doin' here?" Asked Josh, sipping from his bottle of beer, his eyes locking onto Jassmyn's, his brothers eyes looking over her body.

"Oh, er.. I got a job on crab boat, so yanno.." Jassmyn smiled nervously, taking a sip of her Cola and waiting for their reactions, knowing they will probably be in disbelief. She was right. The two brothers stared at her as if she was turning purple, growing wings, and starting to fly. Josh turned to Jake Anderson for an explanation, with a look that said, 'Is she serious?'

"Really? You crab fish?" asked the younger Harris brother, in disbelief like his brother.

"Uhhh.. Yeah.."

"Yeah, she does. She's tougher than she looks yanno. She used to crab fish a few years ago with her Dad, but she decided to go to England. She trained to become a Doctor." Jake.A told the Harris brothers, as they listened, their eyes laying over Jassmyn again.

"That's pretty awesome. I've never met a crab fisherwoman before.. Which boat you gunna be working on?" Asked Josh, secretly hoping that it was the 'Cornelia Marie.'

"I'll be workin' on the Cornelia Marie, know anybody else workin' on it?" Jassmyn looked curious, hoping the same as Josh, just that they worked on the boat. At least then she'd know someone. She'd only met Phil once or twice a few years back, otherwise she didn't know anyone.

"Aw, that's cool! Me and Jake work on there!" That put Jassmyn at ease slightly, knowing her first day on the boat might not be so bad if she knew a few members of the crew already.

"Really? That's great! At least i'll kinda know someone then.. I was dreading having to introduce myself to everyone.." Jassmyn gave the two Harris brothers her adorable signature, before standing up, and heading off to the ladies. "I gotta pee."

The 3 men watched her walk to the ladies toilets, before staring at one another and smiling."Woah..." muttered Jake Harris, who seemed to like the brown eyed beauty. "She's really gunna crab fish?"

"Yeah, why?" asked the other Jake, curious to what he was thinking.

"No reason.. I get to spend a season on a boat with a pretty girl. I think it's gunna be a good season."

"Yeah, man.. What's she like?" asked Josh, turning his head to look at the blonde haired man.

"She's used to male attention, if you know what I mean.. And she warms to people quickly." replied Jake.A, knowing the brothers would probably pry him for answers to the many questions they had.


-First Day on the Bering Sea-

Cold.

Freezing cold.

Today it wasn't the fluffy, white snow that had been falling the past few days. No.. Today was the day the sky forced down VERY heavy sleet. 'Fuck this shit..' Thought Jassmyn as she hooked 12 pounds of crab bait to the trap in the steel pot. The crew had made her hook all the bait in all the 150 pots they had dropped. They excuse was that she was the smallest and the only newbie on board, so she had to do the most undesirable jobs.

The crew had started to admire her, as well as the Captain, Phil Harris. They had gave her the most undesirable jobs, like hooking the the bait, cutting all the cod and putting it into the bait machine, and filling the plastic bait holders, but not once did she complain about it, even if she did feel like her back had broken in several places. She just did it, and always thought positive things about her new job.

"Alright, drop the last pot guys." Phil Harris' voice rung through the deck from the speakers, and a happy cheer came from the crew. Jassmyn felt relief, hooking the peice of bait to the trap, she crawled out of the steel pot and stood in the sleet, watching as the pot fell into the dark bering sea. The crew cleared the deck up quickly, and then entered the warmth of the galley. Jassmyn yawned and looked at the guys sitting around the table in the galley, taking their T-Shirts off and throwing them into a pile somewhere.

"I'm guessing you guys are hungry, huh?" Jassmyn asked them all, hiding her flushing cheeks as she became surrounded by topless, muscley men. She knew it was a stupid question, so started cutting up some vegatables before anybody could even give her an answer. Jake watched Jassmyn for a while, before standing up and walking up behind her, grabbing her waist with a quick motion, making her jump before he let go. "Want some help, sweet'art?" he asked, moving to her side.

"Naaaah, your alright. Go sit down, you're tired, right? Go chill and i'll fix something to eat." Jassmyn continued cutting up vegetables, throwing them into a frying pan and then cutting up a few already peeled potatoes.

"You can't say that you're not tired too." Jake said as he grabbed another knife, chopping potatoes up too.

"I can safely say that i'm exhausted. And I don't think anybody would work on a crab boat for 14 hours straight, and NOT be tired, yanno." Jassmyn smiled at Jake and took the knife off him. "Plus, I owe you guys anyway. You let me come on board despite the superstitions, so.. Yeah." Jassmyn smiled, moving closer too him and pushing his hip with her ass gently so he was pushed away from the counter.

"Suit yourself then." muttered Jake, returning to sit down next to his older brother and Freddie, who had both been watching the two in the kitchen. Jassmyn continued busying herself in the kitchen as the three men talked with each other, then joked with Captain Phil when he came down from the wheelhouse, smelling the sweet smell coming from the kitchen area. After a short 20 minutes, Jassmyn carried the plates of food into the galley, letting out a small 'ouch', when she burnt herself on the heated metal frying pan, before placing the food on the table. She had made a simple dinner of mixed meat and vegetables, with crispy potatoes and gravy.

Putting her thumb in her mouth, she placed her own plate of food down on the table, before she yawned slightly, unnoticed.

"Nobody touch my food.. I'm gunna get changed outta these clothes."

"Sure thing, Jass."

Jassmyn quickly scurried to her cabin, taking off her wet Grundens and T-Shirt off. Replacing them with a VERY oversized black hoodie, and some knee-length denim shorts. By the time she had come out, Phil had already left and headed back up to the wheelhouse, and everyone had gulfed their dinner down them. Jassmyn sat down, taking a small bite out of her food, before ravenously gulping it down quickly. Freddie instantly took her plate and cutlery, washing them up along with everybody else's thing.

"Not gunna make me wash everything up?" Jassmyn asked, watching Freddie over the counter. Freddie grinned and shook his head.

"You cooked the food, you gotta rest too." Jassmyn smiled, and climbed over Josh's lap so she was in the middle of the Harris brothers. Over the past few days, Jassmyn had grew pretty close to the crew of the 'Cornelia Marie.' It felt as if they were her second family. She already trusted them quite alot, and could joke about things with them quite easily, and she could tell that they trusted her a little too. Jassmyn brought her knee's to her chest and rested her chin in the dip between them, wrapping her arms around her legs for warmth.

"Cold?" asked Jake, lifting his left arm up and slowly draping it over Jassmyn's shoulders, putting pressure on her shoulders gently, in hope to manouver her body into leaning against his. It worked. Jassmyn rested her head against his left shoulder, feeling the warmth of his body rush through her.

"Hell yeah! How can you two sit here topless when it's this cold!" Jassmyn shivered, putting an arm over Jake's chest, pulling him closer.

"Aww, come on. It isn't that cold, Jass!" laughed Josh, as he lifted her feet up gently, placing them on his thighs. Jassmyn relaxed, enjoying the company of the two men. Waving when Freddie headed off to bed, Jassmyn made herself comfortable on the Harris brothers.

"Are you guys always this nice too newbies?" asked Jassmyn, curious.

"Nah, you're the exception." replied Jake, stroking her shoulder with his index finger gently. Jassmyn muttered an 'Oh' before closing her eyes, burying her head deep into his shoulder while Josh stroked her smooth legs slowly. It was heaven. Two good looking males stroking her body gently while she fell asleep was luxurious.

She didn't really know what happened then, it was just darkness. But she did know, that she had fallen into a well deserved sleep.
