A/N: It feels like forever since I last updated! Here's the next chapter! By the way, is anyone else but me slightly confused by the new rating system?

"So what do you think?" she asked Elizabeth after explaining the situation.

"I think you should wait till you're a bit older before getting into a relationship."

"That doesn't answer my question."

"Well, that's my advice."

"I'm gonna go talk to Will. He'll help me!"

Her father's voice behind her said, "You'd be better off talking to the sails. What was the problem anyway?"

"Nothing-"

"She likes Damien, and Damien likes her."

"Some friend you are." Allie muttered to Elizabeth.

"I hate Damien."

"I know that dad. The whole crew knows that, and Damien knows that!"

"Good." Jack said. Allie left the room shaking her head and went outside. She decided against seeing William about her problem. She was half-considering talking to Gabrielle or even Dylan. For about five minutes she stared blankly out at the horizon.

"That could be bad for your eyes." She heard Damien say.

"I'm fine."

She heard him walk up beside her.

"Fine, go blind then. I don't care."

"I will." She said. Then, she drew her sword and pointed it at him.

"I'll beat you, ya know." Damien said, drawing his sword as well.

"I'd like to see you try."

They dodged eachother's swords, attempting to miss the crew as they appeared to be trying to kill each other.

Jack and Anamaria were watching all of this with great interest.

"She's getting really good at that." Anamaria said.

"Gets it from me." Jack said proudly. After a few minutes, they saw Allie trip and fall.

"Does she get that from you too?" Anamaria asked.

"Nah, gets that from her mother." Jack said as they watched Damien help her to her feet. "She falls down a lot."

"He's kissing her." Anamaria said, she was half-shocked, and half-amused.

"What!" Jack made his way over to them.

Allie happened to return the kiss as they stood there but it ended abruptly when she was jerked away by the collar.

"Ow! Dad! What was that for?" Allie said angrily. But Jack wasn't paying attention. He was busy contemplating the best way to kill a sixteen year old boy. Damien looked at him nervously, then he looked at Allie for help.

"Dad, it's not what it looked like…uh…uh…you see, um…" Once again, Jack wasn't listening, he was talking to Damien.

"I could just shoot you…or drown you…or think of some way to give you a slow painful death." Jack said threateningly.

"May I request being shot? Quickly?" Damien said, losing any bravery he'd ever had in the first place.

"He won't kill you." Allie said, getting annoyed.

"Tell that him!"

"Fine, I will." Allie said, "Dad, you're not gonna kill him."

"I'm not?" Jack said, confused.

"You're not. Because I'll be very upset if you do."

"Well…can I put him in the brig for a few days…" Jack said, then under his breath, "Or weeks."

Allie decided there was no point in continuing this conversation.

"No. End of story." Allie said, as if she were talking to a child. She grabbed Damien by the arm, "C'mon…before he decides to kill you."

"I love you." Damien said when they escaped to Damien's room.

"How do you know?" Allie said.

"I just do."

"Uh…when did you figure this out?"

"A few minutes ago."

Allie rolled her eyes. Damien didn't see. He pulled her into another kiss. This one lasted much longer than the first. But Allie eventually, and reluctantly, broke away.

"We better go."

"Well, meet me here again in a couple hours. Okay?"

"Yeah, no problem." Allie said, eager to leave now. She'd never liked any boy before. And it was perfectly understandable. She spent the better part of her life on the streets stealing food and then the next three years on a ship surrounded by pirates. The highest thing on her to-do list was to not go to jail. And she'd never even considered falling in love or anything like that.

A/N: I'm tired. It's 12:38 right now. It's Monday and I'm on Spring Break (yah for me!). I'm somewhat depressed that Kentucky lost to Michigan state in yesterday's basketball game. They didn't make the final four... :(Well, now it's 12:40…I'm gonna post this chapter now…yup…right now…as soon as I'm done talking...typing actually...Remember, it's healthy to review...okay, I'm done.
