Disclaimer: Pirates?! I don' own no stinkin' pirates!!....All my pirates are cleeean.
Chapter Eight: First acts of seduction-Part Two: Discoveries and Attemps Gone Slightly Wrong.
"Noticin' ain't seducin' sweetpea."
I swallow. What?
"When ye seduce somebody,....they's go an' become your lover."
"Like 'olding eachothers hands an' stuff."
I says helpfully. Mary frowns an' bites her lip. She shakes 'er head like she's got dust in her nose.
"No. Like kissin' an'....other things."
"Well o' course theres kissin."
I snort. She still thinks im stupid to th' definition o' lovers. What am I? A simpleton?
"But theres th' other stuff too." She slumps back in 'er chair.
"Charlie I ain't th' one to talk to about this."
I frown. Then who is?
"Why not?"
"'Cause, you ain't understandin' anything I say! Me patience is runnin' out!"
"Mary," I says gently. "What you saying don' make no sense."
"Yes is does! Your just too feather headed to figure it out."
"I ain't feather headed!" I stands up me full height.
Mary just sighs an' shakes her head. Honestly, I think she's th' feather headed one. Can't she see I know all about people bein' lovers?? Huh. It ain't some complex game for the fancy folk.
"Mary I gots to go."
She don' say nothin', just nods. I slap me hat onto me head and walk out.
"Glad that's over."
I whisper under me breath, shoving me hands into me pockets. Now, down to business.
First thing on me list: Make meself pretty.
Hips. Gotta swing me hips.
I smile. I like th' way me body feels when I swing me hips. I feel....like a woman. Oh boy, Jack ain't gonna know what to say!
I giggle an' flutter me eyelashes at an imaginary Jack. :::Jack darling! Don't ye know its rude to stare?:::::
"Hell boy, what in all that's good an' holy do ye think your doin??!"
I stop in me tracks.
"Good lord boy, ye should be ashamed!"
I turn around and give th' man glarin' behind me a weak smile. Maybe he'll notice im a girl....
"Disgusting! Wavin' your arse around like you's a woman! That the kind o' man you wanna be?? A bloody fairy?!"
I cringe an' take a step back.
"N..no sir!"
"What sort o' thing be on your mind boy?"
I gulp. Think Charlie, Think!
"A..a girl sir!"
Oh Charlie.....
"A girl eh? What- you think ye can attract a man better than her??"
The man spits on the ground. It lands near me left boot, an' I pull me foot away from it.
I looks up the man, noticin' the stench of alcohol hovering about him.
"No sir, I was just thinkin' about th' way she swings her hips..."
He won' believe that Charlie you dolt!
"Oh, aye. I suppose ye just got too into it is all."
I nod me head, disbelieving. You're one lucky dog Charlie.
"Make sure ye don' do that no more, you hear? Some man might try an take advantage of ye!"
The man's laugh is loud an' booming. I smile weakly an' almost pull back as he claps me on me shoulder. Instead I feel me knees buckling.
He grabs me under me shoulder, his hand brushing against me cloth bound breast. I jump up an' quickly pull away.
"Aye sir, I'll be making sure not to."
"Good boy. Now git."
I don't need to be told twice. I squeak and start running back to th' ship. Bloody Hell Charlie!
That man could'ave done somethin' to ye if he felt your breasts! Lord knows what....
I slow down, panting.
Bloody, bloody, bloody hell....Me hearts pounding like a hammer. I stumble over a forgotten shoe and curse.
Bloody hell Charlie...
"Charlie, oh Charlie..ye must be the prettiest woman there ever was!"
"Oh Jack, ye don' mean that!"
"Oh, aye. But I do Charlie."
"Jack! Im blushin'!"
"Love?"
I drop th' broom in me hand and twirl around.
"Jack...?"
Oh no. Oh no no no. Please, please don't 'ave heard me. You didn't hear me Jack, you didn't hear me!
"I thought I heard ye call me name.."
"Oh! No, im sorry. I said Black."
Black? BLACK?! Charlie...ye hopeless git.
"Ye sure love?"
Jack gave me a sly smile. I feel like im fallin' down a big black hole. But on th' outside I roll me eyes and snort.
"Jack, don't be too full o' yourself!"
"Oh now love...I ain't too sure about that."
Me eyes narrow.
"Whats your meaning?"
"I mean simply this -Charlie Charlie, ye must be the prettiest woman there ever was! Oh Jack, ye don' mean that! Oh aye. But I do Charlie. Jack, im blushin!-"
Me entire body feels like its burnin' an' turning red.
"I knows a different Jack."
Jack laughs an' walks towards me.
"Forgive me if I don't believe you love."
I growl an turn me back to him. What am I going to do? Oh lord. He heard, he knows!
Seduce him.
A small voice in me head whispers. Seduce 'im!
I smile.
"Oh Jack."
I sigh an' shake me head.
"Love?"
"Jack, Jaack. Ye've found me out."
I turn around and smirk.
"What are ye ever goin' to do with me?"
I raise one eyebrow an' cross me arms. Im hopin' he'll get me hidden meanin.
"Well love,....." Jack pulls at 'is beard. "I don' rightly know."
"How about ye punish me? I could use a good spankin'."
I wince. Bad choice o' words Charlie girl.
Jack frowns lookin' at me oddly. Then he laughs. Not just a tiny chuckle, but a loud belly shakin' laugh.
I glare at him.
"Why-ARE-you-LAUGHING?"
Jack smirks an' gives me a devilish look.
"Why Charlie, I didn't know."
I reach back, an' swing me hand forward. But Jack catches me hand before I can slap him.
"Now love, ye don't really want to be doin' that."
I glare daggers at 'im.
"I think I do."
Jack gives me a look of a yelled at puppy.
"But love, wouldn't ye rather me kiss ye?"
I stop. Me face turns red.
"Oh dear. Charlie,..did I say something?"
"You're a bastard."
"Aye, but a cuddly one at that." Jack gives me a lopsided grin.
"Ye want that kiss or not?"
I blush an' glare at him. O' course I want the kiss, but I ain't going to admit it. Not with Jack grinnin' at me like he just won his own ship.
Jack tightens his grip on me wrist an' pulls me to 'im. Me eyes go wide an' I stare up at him.
Is he going to kiss me?
"I think I might want to kiss you..."
I blink. Did he just say-? I smile like a idiot.
"I ain't gonna hold ye back."
"No? Well then,"
And he kissed me.
He kissed me.
He bloody kissed me.
And you can sure as hell bet I kissed 'im back.
The end. Of that chapter. YAY!!! .........hmm...does it seem short to you?
