Chapter Five: Ahoy Matey, Cannons Abroad
"Jack??" he heard a soft whisper. Suddenly his head shot up, and startled his visitor with his sudden appearance. Anabella gasped and jumped back slighty.
"I'm sorry, did I scare you??" He stood up, and helped her into the Black Pearl. She took his reached out arm, and hopped in.
"Just a little bit," she said smiling.
"That's good." They held each others gaze for a short time, before Jack broke the silence . "Well Bella, this is The Black Pearl, and for the next few hours, it's me, you and the open sea, savvy?" He flashed her a quick smile.
"Savvy," she giggled. Jack put his finger over her mouth.
"Not too loud, the Harbourmaster might hear you..." She giggled softly.
"Who could possibly hear us out on the pier??" Jack smiled, and grabbed a firm hold of the wheel, and pulls up the anchor.
"You'd be surprised how well these men can hear Ana." She sat down on a small bench-like piece of wood. "And besides, I'd much rather be able to sneak into Port Royal again, than to be hanging with my fellow pirates."
"And I'd much rather that too, Jack." She smiled, and walked over to the very end of the boat. They stayed silent for the next 40 minutes, while Ana leaned over the edge, and Jack drove them out into open water.
While steering, Jack thought to himself if what he was feeling was right, and if any good would come out of it to be seen with the Governor's daughter. Anabella thought the same.
"Why, if my father caught me with a pirate," she shivered at the thought, "I can't bear to even think of it." She turned back to look over at Jack, who was looking over at her. His eyes widened when she caught his gaze, and he abruptly looked towards the water.
"Bella, would you like to steer??" Jack asked after clearing his throat. She smiled, nodded, and shyly walked over, as Jack's eyes made their way up and down her body; he liked what he saw. She firmly grabbed hold of the wheel, and looked out into the distance; nothing but a clear sailing path. Smooth sailing was upon them; the pirate and the youngest daughter of the Governor of Port Royal. Soon she felt Jack press up against her. He placed his left hand on her left side, and his right hand on hers, which was on the wheel. Then he reached up, took off his hat, and placed it on her head.
"Jack...." She smiled.
"Well love, now you're captain of the Black Pearl, but only until we get back to the pier" Ana let go of the wheel and turn around to face him, giggling shyly.
"Yes Mr. Sparrow," she said, looking up at him shyly.
"I already told you love," he said, leaning his lips down to hers, "call me Jack," he whispered. As Jack leaned in closer, the sound of a close by cannon made Ana jump, and Jack wrap his arms around her and turn his head, with the look of fear, and familiarity in his eyes.
