Everyone that is, except Sinbad. True, he did start off towards his cabin, but he somehow found himself outside Maeve's door. He stood there for a while wondering whether to go in and what to say. He wanted to tell her how worried he was about tomorrow and how he wanted her to get out of it. Inside the room Maeve was also in two minds on whether to go see Sinbad or not. She wasn't entirely happy with the plan either. She just stood facing the door, wondering what to do. She opened the door to see Sinbad outside.
"Sinbad" she smiled. "What are you doing here"
"I...uh...was just coming to find you" he smiled deciding this was fate.
"Oh" she smiled. "Come in then"
So Sinbad followed Maeve into her cabin.
"Were you about to go somewhere?" asked Sinbad remembering that she'd opened the door. Maeve blushed before replying.
"I...uh...It doesn't matter now. What was it you wanted?"
"Oh. I just came here to...uh...see how Lottie was" he lied.
"She's sound asleep" smiled Maeve. "We really exhausted her today"
"She sleeps so beautifully" he sighed remembering how beautiful Maeve looked when she slept.
"Aye, she's a sweetie" she replied. They were silent for a while.
"About tomorrow" they both started at the same time, before laughing.
"You go first" laughed Maeve.
"Ok" he smiled. "I, just, err, don't know whether it's such a good idea. I mean, what happens if it goes wrong?"
"I know" she sighed. "I'm going to be so worried about you" she admitted.
"And I you Maeve" he agreed. "But what else can we do?"
"There isn't, it's the only way to free the slaves." she sighed.
"If only there was a way that we could spend the night knowing the other was safe" he sighed. Maeve's face lit up.
"There is" she smiled. "After they're knocked out we could meet up somewhere. And if the other doesn't show..."
"We'll know something's wrong and can intervene" he smiled.
"Exactly!" laughed Maeve.
"I'm going to be able to sleep a whole load easier tonight" he smiled.
"Aye. There's just one more worry" she sighed again looking at Lottie.
"I know" sighed Sinbad. "I don't want to have to say goodbye."
"Yeah. But she'll be fine. She needs her mother."
"Yeah, lets just be thankful that we got to look after her for the time we had."
"Aye. It was nice having another girl around though" smiled Maeve.
"Don't you mean infant?" asked Sinbad.
