Blah…
Jack cursed under his breath as he walked into another beam. He reached for another bottle of rum from the storage unit, but a small hand grabbed his arm. He turned and saw Eloise. She was staring at him with a reproachful look.
"I just want another drink, love," he spoke, his voice slurred and drowsy.
She flung his arm back down to his side where it hung limply.
"You need to get a hold of yourself!" She resisted the urge to slap him across the face.
"Well, I don't think you need my help!" Instead, he hit her, "Why you just sign your damn papers and run away to you best friend, Beckett?"
He shoved her roughly onto the floor.
"I said I wouldn't!" She gasped as he kicked her stomach causing all of the air in her lungs to rush out at once.
"You are just a filthy pirate! A dirty, lying, slimy bilge rat!" He lifted her up by her hair and slammed her into the wall.
"So are you! You're so proud to be a pirate!" She sobbed, but instantly regretted it as his gun met his hand. She shut her eyes and heard a bang, but his aim was so bad due to being drunk. The shot went right through her hand. She cried out in pain and collapsed onto the floor. More kicks met her face and then it stopped. Jack grabbed a bottle of rum and went up the stairs where she heard him telling someone, "She needs help."
OoOoO
