A/N: 'allo people. 'Ow are ye? Anyway, mailing list is still open, cameo apperances are still open, I own nothing, spelling and grammar mistakes are intentional. There are two POV switches here. Just warning you. I might do more PO switches so that I can convey properly what everyone is thinking about a certain situation. I hope I haven't confused you.

Votes: Still three to zero.

Reviewers are thanked and more people are encouraged to review.

Oh yes, I'm sorry if this is slightly clichéd, but I need this to bring them closer, as the majority has spoken and this shall be a pairing until further notice.

This is.. Not good.

We sailed on without further event, unless you include the huge storm that..

**Flashback**

I staggered out on deck, wondering what the hell was going on. Ah. A storm was going on. That was why the ship was tossing about like a toy boat. I hurried inside to put out the fire. After that, I came out again to see how I could help.

"Get down below, love. Ye'll fall overboard in this weather," yelled Sparrow. For once, I agreed with him.

"Alri' Sparrow, I'll listen te ye jest this once." I turned around and began heading back to the cabin. Then, it happened. I slipped on a bit of wood, fell against the railing and toppled over. Oops.

'This is.. not good.' I sank into the water. Being in a state of shock then, I didn't realize that the storm was calmer and the surface was farther away. My last bit of air was gone. I was going to die. Inhaling a lungful of water, I swam about two feet upwards before giving up. It was no use. I was going to die. My head started spinning and I saw red on the edges of my vision. Then, I saw a tunnel. There was a light at the end of it. I somehow knew that it wasn't my time to go towards that light yet, but I was pulled towards it. Then, I was jerked away abruptly. I saw two things at once. The tunnel and Jack Sparrow swimming towards the surface with me in his arms. Jack Sparrow, diving into the water in the middle of a storm to rescue me. How.. interesting.

When we reached the surface, I realized that I couldn't breathe. I panicked immediately. Would you not panic if you couldn't breathe?

"Does she wear a corset?" Jack asked Anamaria in a worried tone of voice.

"No, cap'n she don't." I saw Jacks' face hovering above mine. Then, he pressed his lips to mine. He pulled back, pressed his hands on my stomach, and pushed down. Ouch. It did get some water out of my lungs though. He pressed his lips to mine again and let out his breath into my mouth. I gasped, jolted up and immediately began hyperventilating. Great.

"Damn.. it," I managed to gasp before I fell back onto the deck.

"Calm down woman! Bloody 'ell!" shouted Jack. Suddenly, he got a sly look in his eyes. He leaned down and pressed his lips to mine gently. Shock immediately stopped me from smacking him for kissing me without paying. No pay, no play. That's how I live basically. Ah well. I managed to wheeze out,

"Th- Thank you.. Jack. I still 'ate you though." Anamaria came over and pulled me to my feet.

"Come on, Maria. We gotta get ye cleaned up an' in dry clothes." As she led me away, I looked back. Jack was standing there, watching me walk away.

**End Flashback** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As it turned out, I had no extra clothes and all Anamaria had was mans' clothes. Since I didn't want to catch anything, I changed into a pair of brown breeches and an off-white shirt. They were very.. formfitting. They were apparently too small for her. And I was smaller than her as well. Since they didn't fit her anymore, and I was considering being a permanent ships' cook, she gave them to me. She said that I would need them if I was planning to work on a ship full time.

**Jacks' POV**

She called me Jack. Not Sparrow, not Jackass, but Jack.

I still don't know why I rescued her. Bloody pain in the ass, she is. Well, she is very good at her.. profession. Still, she charges way too much. Yeah. So, why the hell did I save her? And why the bloody hell did I kiss her? Oh yes, she wasn't breathing. I needed to shock her. I should have made Gibbs kiss her. I shouldn't have dived into the water after her. I shouldn't have-

She called me Jack. She looked back towards me as she was being led away.

**Switch POV to Anamaria**

She called him Jack. I don't know why I care, why I noticed this. But, she's my sister. I should warn her about Jack..

He kissed her. She kissed him back. He dived into the water to save her. I don't know why. She looked back as I helped her to my cabin. Why? Are they falling in love? I know that Jack will have bedded her before this. I saw her looking happy this morning. She showed me two gold coins. Did Jack really pay her two gold coins? All this thinking is giving me a headache..
