Chapter 10:

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! DIOS MIO! HAHAHAHAHA!!" Sofia had to wipe the tears from her eyes. She was the first to admit that she was a tad tipsy but even if she were sober it'd be hilarious to think that she was going anywhere with this Commodore What's-His-Face.

Of all the responses Commodore Norrington would have expected being laughed at was not one of them. He was serious. Yes, she was young and had been found drunk in Jack Sparrow's bedroom but she was still betrothed to the Governor!

Gillette happened to think it was quite amusing watching yet another too-young-too-pretty girl laugh in the Commodore's face. If he remembered correctly Elizabeth spared no opportunity to do the same when she was much less intoxicated—actually she did it a lot when she was sober, too.

Jack was the only one in the room thinking of eunuchs. Why did he always suspect an "incapacitated" man had something to do with his dilemmas? It was probably just the fact that everything else about this situation was so ridiculous that he couldn't help but be his normal insane self about it. After all there was no way Sofia was going to do anything she didn't want to. And then she said it! Said those words that meant she had to be drunk...

"Commodore Norrington- it is Commodore isn't it? I will NOT be going with you anywhere but you are such a pretty man, it seems a shame! Don't you agree Jack? After all you do fancy boys while at sea, right? HAHAHAHAHA!..." ...more laughter... How had she managed to finish off the last of that bottle? And then, as if that weren't enough she added, "Oh, Jackie! Please share the Commodore with me! HAHAHAHA!!" she did have a nice laugh though.

"MISS DE MADRID!" Norrington demanded attention, "as tempting as your offer is you are coming with us and meeting your husband-to-be, who is a good man and governor! So there will be no more talk of such things!" English repression in all its glory...

But Sofia didn't want to go with the naval stiffs and she wasn't one to be bullied so she knew what she had to do—either kill them (which wasn't likely) or plan B.

Plan B—yes, if there was one thing she'd learned while on a pirate ship it was that sailors couldn't resist a charming girl with long legs, breasts (as long as they were there), and a pretty face. Hooray! Sofia had all that and then some—she did, after all, have a way with words! So she went into "seduce the tight ass Commodore" mode.

"Commodore," she began, "you want me to come with you? Well you're going to have to be much nicer to me than Jack here has been!" needless to say Jack was speechless (for once!!).

Sofia made her best pouty face and looked up at the Commodore with big doe eyes.

"Can I speak to you privately Commodore Norrington?" she glanced over at Jack and signaled him to the door. Jack trusted her and led Gillette, who seemed very entertained, out of the room.

As soon as the door closed the Commodore asked urgently, "What do you mean? Have these pirates taken advantage of you?" he seemed honestly worried.

"Oh no, Commodore! You heard Mr. Sparrow yourself, Cabin boys and all." Jack was going to hear about that joke for the rest of his life. Sofia was going to have to have to do this right if she was going to do it at all, so she positioned herself on Jack's bed just right, she wanted to look inviting but not make him think he was invited. "There are just certain things a woman needs that I haven't been given... In my home in Spain it was a daily necessity." She said this putting her hands on his shoulders as now he sat next to her on the bed. "I couldn't ask this of a pirate, do you understand Commodore? I can tell you're a proud man, a good, honest man who's proud of his good looks, I know you can give me what I'm asking for." She smiled.

"Ms. De.."

"Please call me Sofia, I feel so safe around you Commodore!" she squealed as she actually hugged him.

"Sofia," he felt badly and rubbed her back.

Why am I so bad? She thought as she lifted her head to look at him, "Can't you smell it on me? Please let me have what I need, Commodore!" she leaned a little closer into him and, just as she'd planned, he kissed her.

It really was quite pleasant and soft and nice so she was going to feel very badly for what she was about to do. She leaned back onto the pillow and they continued to kiss but then-

"AAAAHHHH!!!" she screamed, "Jack!!! Commodore what were you doing?!" Both Gillette and Jack entered the room and saw Norrington bent over Sofia on his bed! It was actually a little funny.

"I, I... err- uh..." Norry couldn't even get two words out.

"Commodore I was simply asking for a toothbrush! Pirates don't use them! I thought you knew what I was talking about!" he backed away from her and off the bed, her breath seemed fine to him.

"I'm so sorry. I had no idea!"

"Don't be sorry Commodore, it was nice, but now you and your men must leave!" she demanded.

"Yes, yes Norry, do leave." Jack interrupted, "After all, it doesn't seem that trying to take advantage of his Wife-to-be would sit right with the Governor. I'll keep this a secret if you'll keep Sofia's whereabouts to yourself."

The Commodore thought about it, "Gillette, gather the men. We are leaving. Good day Captain Sparrow. Good day Sofia."

"Good day Commodore!" Jack replied.

"-and please return with more of those 'things I need'." She smiled and added. He really was a good kisser and alcohol loosens the tongue so well.

Outside the room-

"Gillette, you saw nothing, do you understand. The girl drowned at sea as far as you're concerned."

"Yes, Commodore." the lieutenant answered trying to hold back his laughter.

A/N yes they had tooth bushes back then, though I'm not sure what they were called or what they looked like.
