Chapter 2
"Hey." She looked behind her and saw an African-American woman dressed in basically the same cloths as she, but she had a leather sun hat. And like Jack she had a white bandana.
"So you're the new girl eh?" She smiled a bit.
Wendy nodded and tried to be polite and not to start a fight since she seemed to be a bit stronger than she.
"Ya know you're lucky to even be on the pearl. Normally women are killed for being on a pirate ship."
"Is that so?"
"Yea, But Cap'n obviously has no regard for the rules."
She looked back at Jack who was turning the ship slightly, looking at his compass. A cold sea breeze blew her hair to the side and gave her Goosebumps.
The woman smiled, "Anamaria."
"Wendy."
The two smiled and once again she was left standing alone. After a while she sat on the railing and watched the men work. Every few moments a man would look up at her and smile. Not that it made her uncomfortable, but it was kinda creepy. When she looked at Jack he was either looking at his compass or shouting orders. When the sun began to set, and most of the men were heading for bed. She went up and stood next to Jack watching and trying to learn to steer a boat like he could. Jack noticed and looked over at her.
"You want to try luv'?" He stepped away, held his arms out and bowed.
"I don't know how." She looked at the wheel nervously then back at him.
"Ah come on. It ain't that hard." He smirked and gently pushed her closer. Taking her hands he steered the ship with her and yet she still felt a little uneasy with him.
"See? It ain't tha' hard now is it?"
Wendy jerked her hands away and blushed. 'This is ridiculous!' A man with a parrot walked up the stairs and smiled.
"Man over board!" Squawked the parrot.
Jack smiled and the man took over. Gently he took her by the arm and led her down the stairs.
"Now. Tell me about ya. As part o' me crew I need to know all about them to see what work they can do."
She once again jerked her arm away and sat on the railing. The waves clashed together and morphed into the watery ocean. As she watched them she felt a bit of comfort.
"I don't know."
He frowned in confusement. "Don't know what luv'?"
It took her a while to answer trying to choose her words wisely. " I don't remember how I got here, or how to get home."
He just stood looking at her. "What? Home from Tortuga?"
She shook her head. A headache started to swell up in her head trying to remember.
"Look just give me something to do." She snapped. Jack just frowned and sighed. "Alright. How about you tie those ropes down." He pointed to the loose ropes that were holding a lifeboat to the side. It didn't fall off because thankfully one rope still remained intact. Jack patted her on the back and walked back to his cabin.
She walked over to the ropes and tugged one tight. Before it got loose again she quickly tied it down to a wooden post. When she finished with that knot she pulled it so it would not come undone. She did the same with the others; afterwards she had a few blisters, but nothing big.
After she finally finished no one was working on the deck except Mr. Cotton who was steering the ship for Jack when he was sleeping. Not sleepy yet she sat and watched the waves. Mesmerized, she didn't hear Jack come out of his cabin.
"What ya doin' luv'?" She glared back at him getting quite annoyed being called luv' instead of her real name.
"Nothin'."
He rubbed her shoulder and smiled evilly thinking he could submit her into getting into bed. Finally anger took hold and she punched him square in the face. He fell back a few steps and held his face. Yet he still smiled and regained his composure.
"That's not very nice." He smiled with cockiness.
"Sparrow don't ever touch me GOT IT?!" She turned away from him and watched the waves once more.
"You would be marooned for tha' luv', but I ain't that kinda person." He smiled again knowing that she is a very interesting woman and could be a real pleasure if he succeeded. Jack walked up to the wheel and Mr. Cotton was allowed to go to his cabin room.
Eventually Wendy got sleepy and started for her room when Jack stopped her.
"You can sleep in my cabin tonight if ya like luv'. There's a bed in there an' all." He smirked and kept steering.
She was very tired and didn't care if she slept in his room for one night. 'I'll kill him if he tries to do anything.'
Wendy made her way to his room and closed the door behind her. The room was cozy in a strange way. The wood was cherry wood red and smelled of rum. A desk with a map sat in the corner, bed in the other, and a chest next to the door. She flopped on the bed and fell asleep before she could cover up. Jack smiled and watched the sun rise above the ocean, causing it to burn the sky with purple orange and yellow. "Bring me tha horizon." And began to hum his favorite song.
Hey that's it! Hope you like this chapter a lot
