I opened my eyes a while later and stood up. It must be late in the afternoon now, since the sun had already set. ' For how long was I asleep?' I thought. It must have been at least three hours, but I still felt tired. I walked around the ship, memorizing every room. Some wood planks creaked under my feet as I walked and I decided it should be fixed later. I still couldn't believe I was in charge around here.
" Oh!I see you're awake " said Alexis as I walked into the kitchen
"Hungry?" she added soon after with a smile. I smiled back and nodded at her
" Yeah, a little ". We both sat on the kitchen table and started eating the food she had prepared earlier. While we ate, she informed me about the next mission that we have scheduled this week. We were going to attack a small village, just some hours away from the main town we were currently set in. I nodded and after I said goodbye to her I decided that I wanted to see the town.
It was beautiful in the night as all the lights were open and created a happy atmosphere around the town. There were plenty of restaurants, cafés and some big or small shops. Even though it was the main town it was pretty small. Not the kind of small were all the people knew each other but it was still small enough to know the people living near you. I looked around as I walked further into the city. I decided to stop by a café to take a drink since we had to discuss how we were going to invade the small village. Alexis told me there was a treasure map there, or someone that knows where the treasure is. In both cases we're gonna find it. I sat on the table and relaxed on the comfy chair, after I got into a small cafe. A brunet waiter with yellow eyes came to take my order. He was a pretty attractive boy, possibly three years younger than me ( around 17 or so), but he didn't smile at all. It was like he had a permanent poker face on.
" I said, may I take your order sir." he said kinda annoyed. I was lost in my thoughts and didn't hear him talk.
"It depends...Are you on the menu?" I decided to flirt with the boy. What? We didn't have a many years difference. He rolled his eyes.
" Are you seriously gonna order or shall I leave?"
" Fine,fine. Just bring me a coffee that's not too sweet." he nodded and left. He only came back to give me my coffee and take the money for it and left. I quickly finished my drink and went back to the ship. After our little meeting with the crew, almost everyone fell asleep except me and Jim. We talked a little and I told him about the boy. He chuckled
" You really suck at flirting Jehu." was his reaction to it. It seemed that we were good friends since he was the only one to call me by my name, at least when he was off duty.
"Oh well...at least I drank the best fredo of my life!" I said with a chuckle but he just looked at me like I was an alien.
" The best what?" he said and I told him I was talking about the coffee. Even after my explanation he still had that look and told me to go rest because there is no such thing. With a shrug and a goodnight, I dissappeared into my room and soon fell asleep, without thinking too much about what happened.
