~Walk the Line~
He knew going after her would be pushing it. He was walking a fine line, and intended to land on her good side, whatever may come. He stared after her as she made her way down the hall, toward the stairs at the end of it.
He got his answer when her step faltered as she was going around the corner. Her eyes flickered up, just barely, but enough that he knew he wasn't wasting his time.
She was curious, in the very least. He'd have to talk to Smee. She'd likely try to talk to his shipmate if she were at all the woman he thought she was. He needed Smee to answer her truthfully, whatever she needed to know. Somehow, he simply knew anything less wouldn't go over very well. Besides, the poor mate needed the warning.
She was a fierce one.
A/N: Welp, these last 4 chapters have been awfully short. I hope that posting them together makes up for that. Though if I keep up with these shorties, I may have to reestablish my template for posting... maybe merging them, next time.
