Bonny stood motionless, her mind racing to come up with an
excuse. Jack was staring at her, his eyes narrowed with
anger.
"Are you going to tell me?" He said with iron
control in his voice, "Or do I have to question my
crew?"
"NO!" Bonny disguised her look of panic with a
bashful smile. "I...I did it to myself." She
laughed forcibly. "I borrowed someones dagger. I wanted
to- I was practising...I was going to use it on you, but it
slipped."
She gave a bright smile which did nothing to lessen the
scepticism on Jack's face.
"So," Jack leaned into Bonny, his eyes never
leaving her face. "You borrowed a dagger in order to
kill me. Instead you stabbed yourself, then kissed me, then
stole the map and tried to burn it."
Her smile was beginning to hurt. She nodded vigorously.
"Yes!"
Jacks expression was starting to make her uneasy. "And
whose dagger was it?" He said dangerously calmly.
"Oh, em, I don't remember. Someone in the tavern. Think
his name was...Bill. Maybe Charley."
Jack raised his eyebrows. "Bill or Charley?"
"Yes! So you know them?" Her tone was getting a bit
desperate. She cursed Jack for the thousand time. She could
never think straight when he was near her. And he was too
near her now. Too near by far.
He glanced down at her wound, then back into her eyes with a
flash. He tilted his head to the side reflectively, his
breath tickling her lips.
Bonny froze and tried to stop herself from blushing, yet she
couldn't move or look away. Her expression took on a hunted
look, like a small animal caught in a snare. A small animal
that was starting to think being trapped wasn't such a bad
thing.
Jack's voice lowered and took on silky tones. "You're
not as good a liar as you think Darlin'." A slow pleased
smirk spread across his lips. "Its all in the eyes love.
You give everything away."
She opened her mouth to protest, but he placed a ringed
finger on her lips. A teasing tingle spread up and down her
spine.
"Now, if I was to say to you that you're hiding
something," he whispered his mouth touching his finger
on her lips," and that you know it, and I know it, why
don't you just say what it is, eh?"
He slid his finger down her throat leaving his mouth a breath
away from hers. His gaze swept appreciatively up and down her
body, before coming to rest on her eyes. Bonny hadn't noticed
she wasn't breathing.
He moved forward so that his lips were just barely touching
hers. His voice tickled her mouth, which she parted
unconciously. "But there are other things in life to be
worrying about than Grahams dagger-"
"Jenkins..." she whispered, then jolted. Her eyes
snapped open.
Jack wore an expression of smug triumph. "Easier than
fish in a bucket."
She gaped, then growled, then tried to slap him. He was
prepared this time and caught her arm. He held it up so she
was pressed against him on her toes. He continued smirking,
not in the least bit bothered by her livid glare.
"Now Darlin', I thinks it's time we had a talk..."
