"Time to stand up!" This words waked me up. I opened sleepily my eyes. At once, Jack started to speak. "Breakfast, for you. I can't let you starve here."
"I always wondered how people can be so motivated in the morning", I noted. "Maybe you sleep for too long, love", Jack said with a winking.
When I went outside, water drops splashed in my face. First I thought, it was raining. But it was just the spray of the sea. However dark clouds brewed at the sky. "The weather is really changeable on the sea!", Jack shouted. And he had to shout – the wind drowned everything.
I went over to Jack who stood at the helm. "I thought so." Although I was beside him, I had to speak louder than normal.
"A thunderstorm?", I asked. Jack looked to the sky which got darker. "Quite possible. You don't have fear, don't you?"
I started to laugh. "How do you figure? Or... do you just want to play the hero?" I raised my eyebrows. "Oh, I just wanted to make sure that you won't run in panic below deck. That wouldn't be very helpful for me, savvy?" "However I'll go now below deck." "Then be so kind and bring me a bottle of rum."
I raised my head and touched nearly his lips. "Aye, aye, Captain."
I turned around and walked away. I took my time to get his rum. Suddenly I remembered that I had been recently a novice. Something like this had been unimaginable for me. My innocent life was over.
Now I was somewhere on the sea with a quaffing pirate. And I was lucky. I enjoyed his closeness. How he touched me... How he kissed me... How he took me out of my mind.
This pirate had made me to fall in love. With him.
