Chapter 4
"Rise and shine Jamie. Darik." A knock came from the door.
Jamie jumped up and out of Darik's arms and into her own bed.
" Jamie?" Elizabeth called through the door.
"Yes mother." Jamie said, slightly irratated.
"May I come in?" Elizabeth asked.
"Yes mother." Jamie said as she sat up in bed.
" Jamie. Are you alright?" Elizabeth asked as she came in and stood beside Jamie's bed.
Darik mumbled something incoherently and turned over onto his stomache.
"Yes mum. I'm fine. I bit tired but absolutly fine." Jamie said in a whisper.
" Ok. How is Darik? Is he ok." Elizabeth asked quietly.
"He sleeps like a rock. I'm not sure if he is ok though. He had a bad dream lastnight. A dream about me.
That someone was trying to kill me and he would'nt let them. He begged them not to." Jamie said
as she looked at Darik with a look of worry on her face.
Elizabeth look worried but then it dissolved into a smile.
"Ladies?" Will said from the door way.
"Yes Will?" Elizabeth answered.
" I've come to call you all down to breakfast. Remarkable, Jacks cooking." Will said with an
impressed look.
"Jack..... is..... COOKING?!?!?! " Elizabeth asked with a horrified look. And with that she
ran out of the room and down the stairs.
"I better go make sure she does'nt strangle Jack." Will laughed as he left the room.
Jamie got up and went to get a dress picked out from her wardrobe. Jamie searched for her
muddy boots under her bed.
"Do you always wear those things, with dresses?" asked a voice from behind her. Darik had
woken up.
"As a matter of fact, NO. I do not always wear them with my dresses. I do have some class. I
may have pirate blood in me but I am still a lady." Jamie said as Elizabeth yelled for her help
from down stairs.
"Your mother is calling you." Darik said as he folded his arms.
"Thank you captain obvious." Jamie said as she punched him in the arm and headed down the stairs.
Meanwhile: In the Kitchen
"JACK! NO! Your going to burn them! I told you, you can't mix egges in with the pancakes! IT'S
JUST NOT RIGHT!!!" Elizabeth yelled at Jack as he poured raw, runny egges into the pan with
the pancakes in it. The egges landed with a very gross splat, in the pan.
Will sat at the table chuckling while drinking his orange juice.
Jamie and Darik came running down the stairs. They skidded to a hault in front of all hell about to break loose.
Elizabeth was red faced, with egges, pancake mix, and flour running down her dress. The kitchen was a mess.
Flour was everywhere. Egges splattered the walls and the......... ceiling.
"How did the egges get on the ceiling?" Darik asked as he jumped out of the way to avoid a green looking egg
falling from the ceiling.
"Mom! Get out. Let me handle it. JACK!!!!! You too mister!" Jamie said as she took ahold of Jack's ear and dragged
him out of the kitchen. Jack sat at the table next to Will and started to pout.
Jamie went back in the kitchen to see Darik in an apron with the pancake mix in his hands.
"I hope he can cook better than his father." Elizabeth said as she took off her own apron and handed it to Jamie. She
left the kitchen and from what Jamie could hear, Jack and Will were laughing at her mother.
Jamie went to sit down with her parents and Jack after Darik had thrown her out of the kitchen.
"WOW! Darik this looks amazing." Elizabeth said when Darik brought out her plate.For breakfast Darik made Scrambled
egges, Bacon, Ham, Pancakes, French toast, Eggs sunny side up, egges benadict, and biscutes and gravy. Darik had
really outdone himself. Jack seemed to pout because his own son can cook, and he can't.
"Damn it boy! Ye be making me look bad! " Jack said as he tasted the french toast.
"Thank you Darik." Jamie said as he sat down infront of his own plate.
"Your very welcome m'dear." Darik said as he put his hands together and bowed his head in the same manner as Jack would.
