I sat on his left and his hand never left my leg. It was always stroking and caressing my leg. A bowl of fine soup was put on the table and served to everyone. I heard some men groan in distaste, but it was nothing too loud. Jack stood and cleared his throat trying to get everyone's attention. As soon as all eye were on him he started.
"Gentlemen, Anamaria. We have a guest on board. I expect ye will make 'er feel at 'ome on board the Pearl. Use any means that doesn't involve... How do I say, 'ysical contact." He raised an eyebrow with the last part and I heard some men muttering under their breath and this made me uneasy. Then I felt it. Someone's eyes were on me. I could feel them looking. I looked up and around the table. I didn't see anybody looking until I got to Gibbs. There he was sitting there, staring. He was one of the darker crewmembers. He had dark brown hair, blue eyes. He didn't look away either. He just kept staring. I shifted uncomfortably as Jack sat beside me with his toothy grin. He looked at me and his grin faded. He looked from me, to the man and then back at me. He nudged me slightly and a blush spread over my cheeks.
"Sorry." I said not looking at him. I picked up my spoon and played with my soup. He looked at me uneasily and then went around to eating his soup. I didn't feel comfortable there. I could feel the tension Jack was giving off and it was making me even more nervous. We finished our breakfast, Jack and I went back into his cabin. He sat at his desk and I laid on the bed. My eyes fluttered closed and then reopened at the feeling of a heavy weight on top of me. I looked up and saw jack laying on me. I smiled, but he didn't smile back.
"What was 'hat 'bout back in 'he dining 'all?" He asked. I looked away and then felt his fingers tracing my jaw line and then gently pulling my face to look him in the eye. "Darlin' answer me. Is there somethin' goin on 'tween you and Marlow?" his eyes meet mine and I saw the hurt in them. It almost made me cry. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him lightly.
"No, there's nothing going on between me and whoever that was. He was staring at me and it was making me uncomfortable that's all." I stated. A look of relief flowed over his face and I laughed. He kissed my neck, he got off me and went back to his desk. I smiled. I don think it could have gotten any better than this. I let sleep over come me.
When I woke next. Jack was standing beside the bed. He smiled and then bent down and took my lips in a passionate kiss. I wrapped my arms around his next. He shook his head no releasing my lip.
"C'mon luv, It be time fer ye first lesson." He stood up straight. Grabbed his swords from where they hung on the wall. I sat up and wiped the sleep from my eyes. I wondered what time it was. I stood and exited his cabin, walking out to the main deck. Jack stood by the main mast. Anamaria stood beside him. It was turning dark out. The sky was a lovely shade of Bluish-purple. It took away my breath. Anamaria saw me stop and admire the scene. She laughed softly and came toward me.
"First lesson is yer 'tance when ye be fightin'." He stated as she handed me a sword and Jack set me in the right position. It felt a little weird at first. The sword felt heavy in my hand. Jack saw this and smiled to himself.
"Ye can 'tart helpin' Anamaria with 'er chores. It'll build up yer muscles and 'he sword wont be so 'eavy." I smiled and acknowledged what he said. He eyed my stance and then smiled.
"Second lesson be, 'efence. 'his be the main key in fightin'." He smiled and Anamaria helped me move as Jack gently hit his sword against mine. They taught me sword positions and everything. The lessons went on for hours. By the time we were all done my arms were so sore. I stood at the railing on the stern of the ship, watching the water lap at the bottom of the boat. Jack had gone into the cabin for the night and was waiting for me. I felt an arm snake around my waist. I had thought it was Jack, I turned in his arms to say something when I was meet by a pair of deep brown eyes. I went to say something when I felt another pair of hands snake about me. I was gagged, and my hands were bound. I felt a sharp pain on the back of my head and then everything went black.
