Camille sat in the boys' room. It was a good size, with a tall window on the far wall. A toy chest, that was shaped like a treasure chest, was in the corner of the room. The boys were jumping on one of the beds, looking at Camille. Their hair was a deep honey brown color, like Elizabeth's and the had brown eyes that greatly resembled Will's.
"What's it like to be a pirate?" Jonathan asked as he stopped jumping.
"I want to be a pirate when I grow up!" Alexander said excitedly, as he continued to jump.
"No you don't."
Camille began, "Being a pirate isn't all gold and gems... It's
hard work, and it's dangerous...with storms and all. Sometimes
there's arguments, but you can't go anywhere, because your in the
middle of the ocean... It's quite boring after a while when there
isn't any port to land at, or any other ship to-"
"To
steal from." John finished for her.
"Yes... When there's
none of that, it's a bore."
Alex though, heard none of
this, or he choose to ignore it, "Yes, I'll be a pirate when I'm
older. The ship's name will be..." Alexander bit his lip,
thinking hard, "It'll be.. Turner Ship."
"How very
clever." Camille said with a light smile, "And how ever did you
come up with that name?"
"My name is
Alexander Turner... 'Turner Ship' will be the name." He said
with a big grin on his face.
Camille smiled again, "Ah... I
see..."
A servant knocked on the door and looked inside.
She had charming facial features, looking around to be twenty-five to
twenty-nine. The girl had soft dark brown curls, with sparkling blue
eyes. "Jack has come back, Miss. He says he's a gift for you."
Giving a smile, she motioned down the hall. "Tis in your
room..."
"Thank you...And where is he?"
"Bathing"
"Ooh..."
Camille stood up, "I suppose you two best be going to bed." The
boys frowned at hearing this. Walking past the girl, Camille smiled,
"Have a nice evening, Polly."
"You two, Miss." She
said cheerfully with a nod, before walking in the room, closing the
door behind her to get the boys ready for bed.
Camille walked
down the hall and walked into the large room, the fire place was
already lit and a box was lying on the blankets of the bed. She gazed
at the fire for a few moments, then turned back to the box and opened
it. Inside was a soft deep red colored dress. She held it up and
softly smiled. The dress felt like velvet. On the arms, at the elbows
the velvet stopped and lace began. There was a corset, though. She
had worn dresses with corsets before...
Opening the door and
looking down the hall she saw that Polly was walking out of the boy's
room. "Polly!" She called and the servant looked back to her with
a 'Yes?' look. "Do you think you could help me with this
dress?"
She nodded, "Yes..." Polly made her way towards
Camille's room.

"You look beautiful, Miss." Polly said, her hands
folded together
Camille smiled, she did like the dress. "You
can call me Camille..." Polly shook her head. "That's an order...
Call me Camille from now on."
Polly gave a light laugh then
nodded, "Okay, Camille... It's beautiful ."
She smiled
to herself, "Yes, It's difficult to breathe though." Camille
looked down, the corset added more to her cleavage, and Camille let
out a giggle because of this.
"I better see if Jack needs
anything..."
Camille stared at herself in the mirror for
awhile longer, then stepped out of the room into the hall. Polly was
out of sight. She looked around, then walked down the hall, and down
the staircase.
She put a hand on the handle of the door and
pulled it open, but was stopped by a voice.
"And where are
you going, Camille?" Came Will's voice, she looked to his which
still looked a bit youthful, along with handsome. His arms were
folded across his chest, an eyebrow quirked.
"Just to get
some fresh air... I'll be back in a few minutes...Ten at the most...
Please Will? I've been inside all day." Camille whined to him.
Will laughed and nodded, "Did you ask Jack?"
"Of
course I did, he said I could."
Will smiled, "Be off you
then...But didn't stay out to long."
Camille returned the
smile, and walked outside. No, she hadn't really asked Jack... But
how much would he care? She knew he's stayed out way longer then
she ever would care to.
Xw (Now... this is...Back to Jack)

Jack lie in the large marble tub, his eyes closed
peacefully, the classic smirk plastered on his face. Hearing a knock
on the door, he opened one eye for a moment, "Who is it?"
A
girl's voice answered him "Polly, sir."
Jack now had a
wider smirk then before, as he sat up, looking to the door, "Aye,
come in."
"Just wanted to know if you need anything...?"
Jack took a breath, pretending to be in deep thought, "No,
Not really... Actually, come to think of it... There is."
"Yes?"
She asked him.
"I want to be completely, fully clean...Except
there's a place I can't reach..." Jack said, flashing a grin
towards Polly who quietly giggled. Jack wet his lips, then held up a
sponge, squeezing the water out of it, "Would you care to help me
with washing my back?" Polly's cheeks turned pink and she smiled
to herself. He continued to grin, holding out the sponge for her.
