"Good boy," Jack then replied, making a shooing motion with his hands. "Off ya go."

Bailey gave a nod and turned to leave. If he was to be the cabin boy, so be it. Cabin boys had no job description, which meant nobody would mind when he goes to have a good nose around below deck.

Jack nodded in satisfaction, then glanced to Quinn, noticing her somewhat apprehensive face. "You alright, love?" he wondered. "You look a bit...iffy."

Quinn gave him a smile. "I'm fine, just taking it all in,"

I can hear all the commotion going on outside, but ignore it. I take a deep breath trying to calm myself down, I realise that Jack hadn't actually given me the map back yet, so there wasn't much I could do apart from look at the chart of the World and work out which countries and islands we'd be passing from memory.

"No worries, eh? You'll get the hang of it all," he assured Quinn with a smile, oblivious that Cleo was in need of the map still in his possession. "Soon enough you'll be climbing the rigging to get the crow's nest."

Quinn smiled, "Then you'll have competition for your Captaincy," She joked.

Jack gave a crooked smile and shook his head. His words were matter-of-fact, and honest. "That's something I would never give up, even to a woman as pretty as you, love. Me bein' Captain and havin' my ship is the most important thing to me. It's all that I am, savvy? I've travelled to the ends of the Earth and even to the Locker to keep it that way too." He gave a shrug, then motioned to the sea. "But I'm sure you'll have your own vessel soon enough."

"I'm quite happy on this one for the time being," Quinn smiled and took his hand. "Come. Show me to my quarters so I can stop carrying this heavy bag around,"

I consider going to ask for the map, but right now, I don't want to leave the cabin again. Thank god I locked the door to my apartment.. I did lock it, right? Oh god, I can't remember. As I feel the ship continue to move, I frown to myself. It's getting darker outside, the evening growing into night faster than usual, and the loudness of the Tortugan streets is fading.
