Working

Hi this is the next chapter. I hope you like it, as I said before I own all the POTC DVD however not the actually story, through Scarlet is mine. Enjoy.

I walked out on deck at sunset, feeling my bones and muscles rebelling against me. I thought of the last ship I had been on, they had not made me work for my keeping. Or at least I only cooked, but that was because they were a merchant ship they didn't like women working. I had been on the ship for a week now, and my body was starting to get back into the shape I was when I last worked on a Pirate ship.

I was so deep in thought I didn't notice the legs out in front of me until I was face down on the deck.

"I knew one day I'd make you fall for me," a humorous voice said from next to me.

"Well I guess that's true," I giggled lying down next to Jack Sparrow. Over the week he had become a friend of sorts, he was different from everyone else. Always knowing how to make me laugh, I could spend hours talking to him. We usually hung out in the Crow's nest where no one would come looking for us, just talking about random facts.

"What are you doing all the way down here anyway?" I said facing him with my back on the deck.

"Looking at the stars," he replied.

I looked up to where he pointed in the sky, "wow they are beautiful," I agreed, they were shining brightly in the sky, like lots of fireflies floating.

"Yes you are," he whispered softly next to me.

"What?" I said softly turning to face him again. He couldn't have said what I thought he did could he?

"Nothing important," he rushed, the sky lit up the ship enough for me to see his blush. I shook my head getting rid of that thought. I mean Jack couldn't like me like that could he? He fell into an awkward silence for a few moments, I was glad of the stars to distract me from the closeness of Jack.

Jack suddenly got up, dusting himself down before holding his hand out for me, "Come on," he said smiling at me.

I took a hold of his hand just so I could feel the contact again, "Where are we going?" I asked as he pulled me towards the front of the ship.

"Somewhere," came his annoying reply.

My brain was having a problem deciding whether I wanted to hit him over the head, or kiss him until I couldn't breathe. I chose neither instead letting him pull me to the bow of the ship and pushing me towards the tip. I walked slowly, being careful not to fall in.

"Close your eyes," Jack whispered in my ear. I did as he asked and felt the magic, the feeling of the water droplet hitting my face gently as the ship rocked softly, the sound of the waves lapping at the sides. Jack moved closer behind me, I could feel his front pressing against my back, before I felt him gently kiss my neck softly. I leant my head over giving him more room. He moved his lips gently up to my ear before whispering in it, "I wish we could be together Scarlet."

I felt his presents leave me more than heard him. I opened my eyes staring out at the night before breathing in deeply and whispered into the darkness, "I wish I could be with you too Jack."

Thank you for reading, please review and tell me how I can improve.

Until next time
