Thanks for the reviews! :D They made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Haha.  I'll make sure to update it as often as I can.

Jack's Pirate Girl: Thanks! :D I'm glad someone likes my story.

The sun was shining through the small holes in the wall of the cabin. Abigail wasn't woken up by her mother screaming for once, she forgot how nice it was. She sat up in bed and rubbed her eyes groggily. She got up and stretched, and then she walked around the cabin. She started looking at all the things in the room there was an oil lamp, a small closet, and a small bedside table. Abigail then realized that she had to go to work. She figured that she could skip it for today even though there was a huge chance that she would get fired. Actually, she would get fired, but Abigail figured that she can always find another job. Abigail reached up to her neck.

"Oh God where's my necklace? That's right, it broke off and it's in my bag." Abigail walked over to where her bag was and pulled out the necklace. She sat on the edge of the bed and held it up to the light, the sun shone through the small ruby that was dangling on it. She smiled.

"Too bad the chain's broken." She thought. "I'll have to get a new one." Abigail heard the door behind her open and she turned around.

"Mornin' love! How'd ye sleep?" Jack asked as he walked over to her. Abigail put down her necklace.

"Good." Abigail stood up from where she was sitting.

"Good to hear, love. Now Miss Abigail, how about we get some breakfast and I'll get to know more about ye." Jack said grinning. Abigail thought for a moment.

"Alright." Abigail put the necklace up her sleeve of her dress.

Abigail followed Jack onto the deck. The sky was blue and it was warm.

"Me crew went into the port for some rum an' food, so it's jus' you an' me love."

"Alright. What are we having for breakfast? I'm hungry." Abigail stopped and looked at Jack.

"We'll get to that later, love." Abigail sighed. She was really hungry because yesterday she'd only eaten a biscuit the day before and she had a few drinks, so she was very hungry.

Jack led Abigail into his cabin and he sat down, he gestured for her to sit also. The room had a strong smell of rum, it was made of a dark wood, and was reasonably bigger than the other cabin. Abigail sat down.

"So Abby, ye from Tortuga?"

"Yes. Why would it matter to you?"

"Well love, I was thinkin' about havin' you join me crew, an' I should know where ye come from, right?" Jack was grinning.

"I suppose so, only one thing; I don't have a clue about all this ship stuff. What good would I do?" Jack stood up from where he was sitting and rummaged through some drawers. He found a bottle of rum and took a drink from it.

"Well, ye can learn then."  Jack held out the bottle offering Abigail a sip.

"Want some?" Abigail shook her head.

"Well lass, what do you say? Want to join me crew?" Abigail thought for a minute. She could stay in Tortuga and work in a tavern and probably still have to deal with her insane mother, or she could sail on the Black Pearl and probably have a better life. Abigail stood up and looked at Jack.

"Sure."
