I look between both of them, I release the wheel and start to walk towards the stairs, I stop to gather up my things. I am not naive so I pull a dagger out of my bag and slip it into my belt as I make my way around below decks. I glance at Joey who is half asleep still in his hammock, he looks up,"Where are you going?"
"Captain'[s cabin,"
Joey's eyes widened a bit, he didn't like that at all,"Err..." he bit his lip and looked at her.
I smirk a bit,"Don't worry, I can take care of myself," I flash the dagger so he can see. " And you, get our lot together and get them upstairs, I'll not have you all lazing about down here, make yourself useful to the ship's captain." I quantify that, not willing to just say Captain.
I make my way to Jack's cabin, dragging my bag and maps behind me. I settle down on a couch but find it uncomfortable. I tried to get comfortable there, not wanting to climb into his big soft bed.
While Lola rested Joey roused his group of sailors, getting them all water and food,then going to the top deck. He spotted Jack,"Hello Captain," mm, odd for him too," How can we be of service?" He gestured to the two men behind him and himself.

"You can..." I grumble to myself. He can't hear me mumble. "You can... hoist sails to the fullest degree and make sure we don't hit another reef. Ta." I go to my cabin. "Hello."

By then I have moved into his bed, I wake up from my half sleep with a start. "Oh, ello." I push some of my hair out of my face and sit up, feeling a bit awkward, being in his bed, he never said I could do that, but it looked so comfortable..
"Alright sir," Joey responded, he hoisted the sails and directed the other two to go up to the crow's nest and watch for any reefs.
While working he watched the girl at the wheel, Anna, he thinks is her name. She was pretty, and she was far more refined than most girls at sea, made him think of Lola when he had first met her. He liked her instantly, this new girl. He smiled at her,"Hot out here." Oh yes, lovely, very observant he thought, feeling a bit foolish, he hadn't had a need to be suave in awhile and clearly he had lost a bit of his touch.

I looked at him and smiled. "That's the Caribbean for you." I said to him and held the wheel tighter, feeling it drift. I really hated Jack at the moment for asking ME to take the helm. I felt akward behind it as it seemed rather large. I never really noticed how small I was on this ship but I was nothing compared to Anamaria while she worked. That woman looked so comfertable and completely in her element while at the helm. And here I am trying to use all my weight just to keep us on course. They all make it look so easy.

He smiled at her,"Yeah..." watching her, she seemed to use all of her strength just to keep the wheel on course,"Need any help?" He asked, having nothing to do now and wanting to seem helpful to her. He walked up closer to her and the helm.

I laughed lightly. "Yeah," I admitted. "I'm still rather new to the helm. I don't know what he was thinking." I handed it off to him, hoping he knew what he was doing and I wasn't going to get thrown off the ship for letting him.

Joey had manned the helm for Lola most of the time, she liked to plan the course but she never really thought of the wheel as power, like many captains do. He smirked and took the wheel, "Where are you from?" he asked as he gazed out over the ocean. Hmm, didn't think this over, now I have to pay attention, I can just stare at her, he thought.

I leaned against the railing in front of the helm, my elbows resting on the top of it. "France, originally. That's where I was born, anyhow. But I lived in Port Royal most of my life with my mother and her husband." I replied, being very honest. He seemed harmless enough. "What about you? You couldn't have always lived on a ship."

Ahh,French, that is what that accent is." I couldn't've?" he asked smirking,"Scotland, I was born and raised in Scotland." He was glad she moved in his eyeline, he looked slowly at her legs, then quickly turned his head and looked out at the sea again.
"How'd an upstanding citizen such as yourself end up a pirate?" From her manners and the fact that she lived in Port Royal he assumed she was rich.

"Well, like I said, I didn't always live there. My mother and I made our way to the Caribbean on my father's ship. I lived like a pirate and have wished for it again since the first day I wore a corset. I'm...a runaway." I explained and crossed my legs. "Why did you leave Scotland to become a pirate?"
