Jack soon recovered from his little ordeal, but had a terrible hangover the next morning. I brought him breakfast in bed and sat down next to him. He appeared to be still asleep so I shook him.

"Jack, wake up. I have breakfast for you." He stirred a little.

"My head's on fire." He breathed out and rubbed his eyes.

"Here, drink this. You'll feel better." He drank the glass of...stuff that the cook had whipped up for him.

"It tastes awful." He made a face and set it down. He picked up a piece of bread and looked up at me. "Wheres the babies?" Taking a big bite, he chewed while I answered.

"They're with the Captain's wife. I thought that we should have breakfast alone, considering the whole cabin smells like rum." Jack sniffed a few times.

"Smells alright to me, luv." I stared at him in mock anger and then got up on the bed. I crawled next to him and sat down beside him. He moved the tray so that it was over both of us. "Hmm, that's much better. We should do this more often." I reached out to get some eggs but he took my hand. He brought it to his tanned lips and kissed my fingers. I brought my other hand up his bare back to his neck. He dropped my hand and pulled me to him. [OOH! It's giving me a warm tingly feeling!] He started kissing me and bringing his knees towards me, but in the process, he started to move the tray.

"Jack! The tray!" He stopped and grabbed it just in time. He picked it up and bent down to put it on the floor.

"You first, food later." He jumped on me and I squealed. Unfortunately, our activities were interrupted by someone at the door, who had been knocking but we hadn't heard it. One of the ship's workers stood in the doorway with a red face.

"Ex-excuse m-me, I-I'm sorry for intruding, b-but-"

"Spit it out, son," Jack said. I bit my lip to keep from laughing.

'We must look a sight,' I thought. Jack didn't have a shirt on, I was in my nightgown and we were both tangled in the bed sheets.

"We've sighted land and the Captain would like to talk to all of the passengers on deck, sir."

"Thank you. You may go." The worker practically ran out and slammed the door behind him. Jack turned back to me.

"Now, where were we?" He started to lower himself down on me but I pushed him.

"Jack, we can finish this later. Let's go on deck." I kissed him fast and got out from under him. He groaned and fell down on the bed.

We were the last passengers to get on deck so we found our way to the Captain's wife. She eagerly gave us Peter and Sarah back and took her place beside the Captain. Jack and I situated the twins on our hips and stood near the back of the crowd. Jack was concentrating on the Captain and had a very sad look on his face.

"Jack, what's wrong?" He sighed.

"I was only wishing that that was me standing there, giving orders." I sidled up to him and he put an arm around me subconsciously.

"Don't worry Jack. We'll get the Pearl back someday." He smiled as I snuggled against him.

"Yes, we will," he said as he stared out at the ocean. The Captain brought us out of our trance.

"Ah, Mr. And Mrs. Sparrow. So nice to see you and your little ones. We will be in Singapore within a day's time. My only regret is not being able to see your fine children everyday." We smiled at him.

"Thank you, Captain." He smiled and walked away. Jack rolled his eyes and talked to the Captain's back.

"It's Captain and Mrs. Sparrow. Captain." I laughed at him.

"Well then, Captain, should we go to our cabin?"

"Oh, but of course." He took his Captain stance and strode off to the cabin.

We set the twins on the table and picked up our breakfast tray that was still on the floor. I groaned.

"Everything is cold now." I set it down on the table and Peter reached to take some of it.

"Then, let's warm it up." Jack grabbed me and kissed me. He pushed me against the wall and let me go, but kept me pinned. I laughed.

"How did I end up with a man like you?" Jack opened his mouth to answer but a tiny voice interrupted.

"Pirates." We turned to the twins, who were eating the cold food so it was hard to see who said it because both of them had been saying it from time to time. I smirked at Jack.

"Out of the mouths of babes," I said. He had a silly grin on his face as he turned back to me. He started to kiss my neck and caress my side. I looked back at the twins and tried to get him to stop. "So, what are we going to do when we get to Singapore?" He stared back at me with a blank expression.

"Hopefully get a nanny for the babies." I laughed at him.

"Oh, so you can have your way all the time?"

"Precisely." He kissed me and left the room. I smiled at him before he left. He knew that I wanted nothing more than for him to continue, but I didn't want to do anything in front of the babies. [Hey, would you?]

[By jove, Guv'nah! You've cracked the code! Hmm, I kind of liked this chapter. There's more to come! Mr. and Mrs. Ricky Paperboy! Oh, kiss, kiss, kiss! Grow up! Look at that! They're fighting just like brother and sister. Ewww!]
