Ch4— A talk, a shop, a stranger, and a steamy welcome back

"Oh, Chrysti. What am I going to do? I really want Jack, but my past with James is haunting me!" she cried.

"Poor you. Will said that we were going into Tortuga today. We can go shopping!" Chrysti squealed. She didn't seem very sympathetic to Caitlyne's plight.

"Umm... That has helped you before!" she quickly added.

Caitlyne had to agree. She usually drowned her sorrows in shopping. It was meditative to her, in a sense. "Okay," she sighed, "we can see if that will help."

Later...

"Land ho!"

Caitlyne grinned. I can't wait to get on shore... She thought. She had been thinking that Jack really HAD looked sincerely sad, but for what reason she didn't really want to know... But she had finally decided to play hard to get, but not too fiercely... She had also decided that while in Tortuga, she would but an extremely seductive dress. She would also buy some fabric to make a super mini skirt. She grinned devilishly. What? The horns are only there to keep the halo on. She thought to herself. While talking with Chrysti they had decided that Caitlyne would use her irresistible puppy dog eyes to try and get money from Jack, and Chrysti would do the same to Will.

Caitlyne went on deck to find Jack. When she stepped into the sun, she saw Chrysti already doing her part. Jack was at the wheel. Caitlyne walked casually over to him.

"Jack?"

"Yes luv?"

"Can I have some money to go shopping in Tortuga? All I have is this money from the future." She used her world-famous eyes.

He stared at her for a second, as if he was trying to figure out her plan. "Alrightie then, but first you hand over that future money and you promise 1. to not waste all me gold away, and 2. to meet Will and I at the Drunken Lady. That be the first pub that ye will see when ye step off me ship. Savvy?"

"Aye, savvy." She grinned.

They exchanged dollars for gold and Caitlyne set off to find Chrysti. "Well, did you get it? I did."

"Yeah. This is going to be so much fun!" They squealed, and almost ran off the ship.

They walked around until they found a dress shop that they both liked. While they were looking around the store, Caitlyne found the perfect dress. It was a little expensive, but Caitlyne was sure that Jack wouldn't mind very much.

The dress was beautiful. It was the perfect color of the Caribbean Ocean and it had sapphires sown onto it in a star-like pattern. Not only that, but it had a really low cut neckline. Jack would love it. A terrific temptation. Caitlyne went to show it to Chrysti, and she agreed. This would be sweet.

Caitlyne quickly picked out some fabric and needles for the skirt, and paid for those and that lovely dress before anyone else could take it. Chrysti had also picked out a dress, and they decided to change before they went to the pub.

Then they were off, chatting along the way. When they entered the pub, they immediately saw Jack and Will sitting at a table with their backs to the door. The girls quickly devised a plot, and sashayed towards their table.

(A/N: this part is why it took me so long to update. My muse was on vacation, but she is now back and whipping me with a nine tails. –cries- o well...)

Caitlyne walked silently over. Spying her prey, she launched for it, sucking and nibbling. (A/N: no, not THAT...--;;)

When Jack felt her tongue on his ear, he freaked. It had scared the heck outa him. He jumped ond turned to see who it was.

Caitlyne took that as an opportunity to climb onto his lap and straddle him, meanwhile switching from his ear to his mouth.

Jack grinned when he saw who it was. He broke away and started to say "I knew you'd warm up to me" but got cut off when he felt her grinding against his groin. All that came out was a groan.

Right next to the occupied couple, Chrysti and Will were cracking up. Seeing this, Jack once again tried to speak. "Now that's not very niiiiiice..." This made them laugh harder. Chrysti, while laughing her head off, managed to bump into a guy sitting behind her.

"I'm so sorry!" she giggled.

The man turned to face her, and she stopped laughing immediately. He was dead handsome. "No problem. I'm Smith; or Smithy if you like." He said, holding out his hand. Hearing this, Jack, Caitlyne, Chrysti, and Will all stopped what they were doing and stared at him.

"What?" He looked slightly scared.

"Seriously?" Chrysti asked.

"Umm... yes." He answered. The rest of them all started cracking up. "It's not that funny a name..." he said, turning red.

"Chrysti quickly reassured him. "Oh, it's not that. Kind of like an inside joke I guess you could say." She smiled coyly at him. "Say, do you have anyplans for the rest of the night? 'Cause I have some free time..." she raised an eyebrow suggestively.

"Now I do." He said grinning devilishly. "I belive they have some rooms free upstairs..." "Let's go!"

Still cracking up at the funniness of it all, Caitlyne suddenly remembered why she was straddling Jack. She began her rhythmic grinding again, while planting kisses down his neck. He groaned throatily in response. Caitlyne grinned at hearing this. "Goddess," he moaned. "Not here, not now."

"But I like it here." She said, grinding harder against his parts.

If she didn't stop now, he was going to spill, and their evening would be ruined.

"Rrrr... No!" he grunted. Alarmed by this, Caitlyne stopped for a second.

Jack took this gratefully. Picking her up, he stormed out, calling over his shoulder for Will to pay for the drinks.

Caitlyne waited impatiently for him to dump her on a bed. In the meantime, she consented herself to give Jack a hickey on his neck. He groaned once more, and ran onto his ship and into his cabin...

(A/N: sorry to leave it off like this, but I am planning to also write that next chapter today, so you should see it shortly.)
