Horatio took a moment to get himself ready before having to talk to Pellew.
"You wanted to see me sir?"
"Yes. Why did you bring that young woman aboard?"
"She was injured. It would have been a poor officer to leave a dying woman there, besides one who could give us information." he said making it up as he went along.
But Pellew could see through the ruse.
"Fine. When she is better you will get information from her, or else put her to work."
"Work, sir?"
"No boy, I don't mean that. Cleaning, cooking, something."
"Ah, yes. Understood sir. Anything else sir?"
"Yes, where will she be staying?"
Horatio hadn't thought about this."
"I see," said Pellew oblivious to the fact that Horatio was attempting to stutter something out, "she will stay with you, in your quarters, to prevent the men from having a case of wandering eyes, or hands for that matter. Dismissed."
"Thank you sir."
With that Horatio left and went to take his post back up in front of surgery.
Wow, I got another one done. Shocking I know. Again, sorry these are so short, but I can't pay attention long enough to write something long
