Arguments
Hi 3rd chapter up. I hope you like. Scarlet is my danger magnet, but I sadly don't known the rest. Have fun.
Jack had been avoiding me since the night on deck. He couldn't have been more obvious about it if he tried. Every time I walked into the room he would walk out, I felt hurt. Maybe I had imagined what he had said to me, or maybe he was playing around. Everything was a joke to Jack anyway, why not this?
I had been on the ship for a month today, my chores seemed easier these days. I knew it was because I was getting used to manual work again. Today though I had agreed to help the Captain steer the course. He had discovered about a week ago that I was skilled in map reading, which was why I was in the Captain cabin working out the best route to go to Tortuga.
"Why are we going here Captain?" I asked as I plotted the coordinates for Tortuga and consulted the travel log for the route that would mean we were least likely to run into trouble.
"Jack wants to get back to his ship," the Captain said not looking up from the charts he was working on.
"What?" I asked, looking up from my work.
"His ship lass. Did he never tell you?" he said, his voice worried as if it should have been something I knew.
"No, he didn't," I said, before sitting and letting the anger strew for a few moments before I got up and began walking towards the door, "I'll be back in a second Cap'n."
"Okay lass, don't do anything to violent. I'm sure he didn't mean to…" the captain began but I closed the door before I could hear the rest.
I found Jack on the deck with the rest of the crew. At this second I didn't care about making a scene. Jack noticed me walking towards him and began to head in the opposite direction, "You move another inch Sparrow, I'll take my sword and stop you ever having children," I yelled as I continued moving forward.
Jack froze, and all the male crew looked extremely worried at me. Jack turned around, pretending that he hadn't noticed I was following him, "'ello love. What can I do for you?"
"Don't you love me Sparrow," I said, ever in my bad mood that pet name still made my heart skip a beat, "You evil bastard, did you think I wouldn't find out?"
"Find out what?" Jack said looking confused.
I had enough of his attitude. I brought my hand back and slapped him around the face, causing him to swing his head to the side and a satisfying red mark appeared. He turned his head slowly back towards me. I spoke gently, "You clear off back to your ship and leave us all behind, see if I care."
I turned and walked away back into the Captain cabin ignoring all the crew staring at me. When I shut the door I fell back onto it crying. Now I knew what heartbreak felt like.
Thank you for reading, please review and tell me how I can improve.
Until next time
