"Otherwise you wouldn't find the rum...", I joked. "Exactly."
The sun was behind the horizon now. It became darker. Colder. But I didn't feel the cold. It was a great evening. We drank. We talked. We laughed.
Jack told me funny stories about his life. "...and then good old Mr. Gibbs got scared of Tia Dalma! But her stories are really great. Have you ever heard of the Fountain of Youth? One of the things she has even mentioned." "The Fountain of Youth? No." "Would be great to find it, but first I have to do other things." "Like getting back the Black Pearl?", I smiled. "Aye."
I took his arm and shoved up the sleeve. "Pirate...", I mumbled and stroked over the 'P'. Over it a tattoo came to light. A swallow in front of the sun behind the horizon. Over the sea.
"Would you like me if I was someone else?", Jack asked. "If you were someone else, I'd never have met you."
He put his hand on my cheek. "That's true." With this words he kissed me.
Admittedly, I wasn't prepared and retreated, where I bordered on the banister. I pulled Jack closer to me.
He stroked my hair back. "It would be a shame not to have met you", I whispered. "It actually would be a shame." I stroked with my fingers over his neck. "What if someone attacks us?", I asked smiling. "Then... we'll escape." "In a crazy way, I suppose." "Which way else?" Jack smiled.
"So... where do you want to sleep?", he asked. "Well..." I looked down. "I had thought of the Captain's cabin."
I hope you like it... Thanks for rewieving ;)
