eve turned her head slightly, only faintly hearing his comment, and blushed again. Minutes later she saw Jacob emerge from the ship's hold and replied to him, "We're getting supplies. These filthy pigs eat more than their fair share of food." She rolled her eyes. "We'll be headin' back out soon enough." Eve rested against the railing alongside him, ignoring the stirrings inside of her.

"Ahh, well might as well pick up a cat while you're at it. Those darn mice eat holes right through your clothes, plus spoilin the food." I advise, fingering the small holes in my shirt.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 4:39 pm

eve smiled gently. "A cat wouldn't do any harm." She pulled out a pouch from just inside her shirt and poured out a few coins, handing them to Jacob before replacing the pouch. She then smiled again. "You can use that money to buy the cat. If it's not enough, tell me and I'll give you a few more coins." She smirked at the holes in his shirt and poked him through one of the holes, chuckling slightly.

I grin as she pokes me. "Alright then, off I go. Thanks." I jumped into one of the lifeboats, then frowned at her. "Want to come with?" I ask, standing in the suspended lifeboat.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 4:50 pm

Eve looked at him quizically when he frowned, then smiled at his offer. "Sure." she said, hopping into the lifeboat and making it rock gently. Eve appointed somebody to be in charge until we were to return

[sorrysoshort!!]

I smile and lower the life boat into the water, and pull out the oar, paddling towards the docks, my muscles rippling under my shirt as I rowed the boat through the water. We neared the shore, and I eased my paddling a bit, letting us drift a bit closer.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 5:03 pm

Eve smiled and enjoyed the ride, watching him work, muscles moving slightly with hardly any effort. She turned her head when she caught herself staring and waited until they reached the beach. Her mind wandered and she felt rather nervous being alone with Jacob, knowing her feelings for him and all... Eve smiled gently as her thoughts wandered to the two of them.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 5:21 pm

I hop out of the boat, and into the knee deep water, and push the boat to shore, holding my hand out to help her out of the boat. I look around at the dock, the people scurrying back and forth, talking, selling things, it was busy, to say the least.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 5:32 pm

Eve wanted to help him pull the boat in, but before she had the chance, he was already helping her out. "Thanks." She said quietly and hopped out of the boat, then released his hand, feeling shy all of a sudden. Eve looked around. "Now, where to buy cats? Or two?" Eve looked around again, searching until she found a small stand that was holding meowing cats in wooden cages.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 5:38 pm

"Umm, this is going to be hard." I say, as a bunch of squirming kittens play with eachother. "Ye Sailers want a kitteh?" The man asks, spitting out the words in his toothless mouth. I look to Eve. "You had better choose, I have a weak spot with only picking one."

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 5:44 pm

"We can get two," Eve smiled and picked up a small tabby kitten, who batted at her nose playfully, making her chuckle. She pet the kitten then put it back down. She pulled the pouch back out of her shirt and dumped out a few more coins, knowing they were going to need it.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 5:54 pm

I smile, then ponder my choices. There were so many, and I pulled out a black cat with bright blue eyes. I hold him up to my face. "Looks like me, eh?"

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:04 pm

Eve smiled slightly and said, "But not as cute." Eve's eyes widened as she realized what she'd said, her face flushing red, and she dropped her gaze. Instead, she hurriedly continued, "Um, yeah. It does look like you. You can get it, if you'd like." Eve picked up the tabby kitten again. "I'm going to get this little one." Eve finally felt her face return back to normal and she looked at him, smiling lopsidedly.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:06 pm

A smile played at the corners of my mouth. "Alright." I say, and flip the man a few coins. He grins and stores them into his pockets. I turn to Eve. "Whats next, Captn?"

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:12 pm

Eve turned to the man and paid for the kitten, having troubles keeping it in her hands and she smiled as its tiny untrimmed claws pulled at her shirt. Eve turned to him and smiled slightly, "I suppose we should be getting back to the ship soon." Eve was still embarrassed from the words she'd let slip back at the cat dealer's.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:16 pm

"Alright then." I say, and hold the kitten in my arms, He licks my cheek, and starts to purr. "You've got a fiesty one!" I say, but leave out the part about being beautiful, just like her.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:20 pm

Eve chuckled slightly at his comment and pet the kitten's fur. "I guess so." She smiled as the lifeboat came back into sight, and she slowly motioned towards the boat, telling him he could get in first. Her heart pounded being so close to him once again, and the fact that they were alone made it even worse. She hoped he couldn't sense what she was feeling.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:28 pm

I hop in the boat, then motion for Eve to join me. I poise the oar, getting ready to push off as soon as she joined me in the boat. My face flushed as I realized we were alone together. Without the annoying ship mates.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:34 pm

Eve smiled and quietly hopped into the lifeboat and sat down in front of him, looking down at the kitten, trying to distract herself from him and the awkward silence making her feel a bit nervous. Eve wished she could reach over and kiss him, but decided it best not to. Instead she just looked at him and smiled. "Well, let's get going..." she smiled hesitantly.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:38 pm

"Yeah." I push off, and the boat drifts slowly into the water. I row to the nearing boat, seeing the ship mates on the deck, watching us with stares. The looks made me uncomfortabele.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:43 pm

"Why are they staring?" eve asked, leaning closer to Jacob a bit. She watched their stares and wondered why they cared so much. She looked at them and then waited for Jacob's reply, sitting up straighter.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:47 pm

I bit the inside of my cheek. "Ahem, well," I say, but then we reach the rope ladder and I motion for her to climb abord.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:51 pm

Eve rolled her eyes when he didn't reply and climbed the ladder to the ship and set the kitten down, who immediately began chasing around a rat. Eve nodded, satisfied. Once she was aboard, she began barking out orders. "Get your lazy asses moving, ye all! Begin setting the sails! We're leaving this damned port!" Eve smiled at Jacob, then strode away.

by Spritz Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:54 pm

I set the little tom down, and he races off after his sister, chasing a fat rat that was about the size of him. I imedietly get to work, checking the rigging and setting the sails, while the others gawked at me.

by Guest Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:57 pm

Eve still couldn't figure out why the others were so amused with the fact that the two of them had been together. The prospect confused her thoroughly. Sighing, Eve decided she would ask Jacob later. She watched as the sails were up and the ropes were taken out of the ship. Slowly, she began to back the ship up and set it free and started out into the open ocean, glad to have the smell of salt and the breeze on her face again.
