Thanks for all the reviews!!! PS: Yeah, I know there's no tap back then in ships, but I just couldn't find something to replace it hehe. And besides, Jack said, "Clearly you've never been to Singapore." Singapore didn't even had that name back then... How on earth could he have known Singapore? Anyway , new chapter...

CHAPTER 12
"You're not allowed to do work with those injuries." Jack said, coming up behind Delora.
"Why not? I'm just a crew member here, and I should be treated as equally as the others.
"You're not just a crew member." Jack whispered in her ear. He put his hands on Delora's hands.
"Oh Jack, I'm washing the plates. Stop washing my hands. Please captain?" Delora asked, shifting her hands in an attempt to shake his hands off.
Jack raised her hands to the clear water coming from the tap and washed them free of soap.
"Argh! Stop that, I should be doing work with everyone else!" Delora complained. Having no use at all in one place was what she hated, after what happened last night.
Jack turned Delora around and lifted her chin. Delora felt a tickling sensation when her lips met Jack's. She had to admit Jack was a damn good kisser.
That night, after her chores, Delora went over to the steering wheel, and said to Jack, "I'm off to sleep. Any chores, just wake me up, okay?"
"Yes I have one for you." Jack started, when Delora started to reach the stairs. Delora groaned and dragged her feet back.
"What is it, Captain?" she asked, muttering to herself something like "darn the pirate, can't get sleep".
Jack beckoned for another pirate to take over the wheel. "For goodness sake, Jack, you're always not taking the wheel for long." Delora grumbled.
"I promised you sword fighting." Jack replied.
"My wounds aren't healed." Delora immediately said, hoping to avoid the practice.
"Well you said to treat you like the rest of the crew, so I have to. Savvy?" Jack said, smirking.
Delora had nothing to say. Jack threw Delora a sword and said, "Well Delora, I don't have to teach you how to hold a sword, do I?"
"No." Delora said, nervous at the idea of sword fighting. Had it to be at night?
"I'll come at you, and you'll try defending, savvy?"
"What if I miss?" Delora immediately asked.
"I'll go slow on ye." Jack assured.
Oh wow. A sword fight. This was terrible. For Delora at least, and Jack advanced...
Delora bit her lower lip as she tried defending. She was no good at it. "Avast!" she cried.
"What's the matter, luv?"
"I can't do it." Delora replied.
"Oh yes you can..." Jack said, moving behind her. "Now, all ye have ter learn now, is the moves." He held her hand in his, and guided her.
"Oh the darn sword." Delora muttered. "It's hurting my wrist."
When Jack started again, Delora was pretty drowsy. She had had a hard day's work, and wished only for some rest, and here she was, having a lesson on sword fight.
Due to the drowsiness, Delora did not fully concentrate and simply gave way to Jack's attacks. "Ow!" Delora exclaimed, droppng the sword. Oh hell, how stupid could she get? Just a little cut on her finger...
She felt her hand being lifted. Jack was sucking at the wound. Delora yawned quietly, wishing that she could just plop down onto a nice bed.
"Come on, luv." she heard Jack say, before drifting off to sleep.
