or am i just saying that?...

-------------------------------------

bythe end of the night the pub slowly began to empty until there wereonly a few all nighters and the guy I knocked out on the table. myhead started to slowly throb as I began to loose control of myself asthe drink I was given called The AngelsKiss was starting to take effect and I could not walk or standand it was quite a sight as it was soon time to go back to the ship Ismiled happily as I went to slip off the seat not really concious ofhow drunk I really was. the crew stayed seated watching me intenselyas I stood up I swayed a little as I took a step forwards my legscaved and I fell back onto my butt

"oops"I said with a smirk

Igot back to my feet as I took another careful step my legs wobbledand I fell heavily to the ground

"Angel?"I heard Rikardlaugh as he came closer "dare I say it little one but I thinkyou're tipsy?"

"I'venever seen an Angeldrunk before" remarked Gallent

Iraised my eyes to Gallentblinking a few times then looked at him with wide eyes

"I'venever been dunk before?" I said

witha small giddy smile I held a hand out in from of my face the crewslipped out of their seats to gather around

"she'slike a little kid!" chuckled Gero"it's so funny"

Ipaused feeling my lower lip tremble his words hit me some where deepwere it hurt a lot I looked to Rikardmy eyes watering he stopped in his tracks

"oh,god, guys I think she might be a crier"

everybody took a step back as I felt hot tears fall down my cheeks asRikardkneeled in front of me

"um?"he said

wipingthe tears away with his sleeve as my lower lip continued to quiverthere was a quiet aww from the crew

"it'snot funny" I blubbered like a child

"yesI know, it's not funny" he consoled me

Iwidened my eyes then pursed my lips as I got slowly to my feetpulling my hair out of my face Rikardrose to his feet also. my legs wobbled and I fell forwards into him

"whoa"he exclaimed as he rose me to my feet again pulling me closer to hischest "okay I think it's definitely time to go" he said slowlylooking down at me "okay?"

Inodded as he tried walking me forwards but I pulled myself out of hisgrip

"Ican do it" I claimed anger in my eyes

pullingout of his grip but staggered to the side falling to the ground I hitmy head on the wooden floor I yelped from the impact sitting up Iheld my hand to my head my eyes wide with surprise

"ow"I whimpered pouting tears dripped down my face of course they weredrunken tears Rikardkneeled down again

"ackAngel,your head"

hereached his hand out then before he could pull back I bit it

"ow"he yelled

pullinghis hand back cradling it the crew laughed quietly

"godshe is like a bloody child" he exclaimed

"maybeit would have been um... how do I put this ... safer if she knockedherself out on the ground?" said GallentRikardsighed

"Iput this on myself" he admitted "I was the one who made her drinkit but by god why the hell wasn't she like this the other night"Gallentshrugged

"Istill think she should have knocked herself out on the gr--"

"enough"snapped Rikard

causingGallentto smile and me to raise my head I furrowed my eye brows and I feltmy body tense as I grew angry and Rikardseyes widened

"actuallyguys" he said

ashe stood up dropping his hand to his side taking a few steps back

"Ithink she might be a bit of all of them"

Isaw people smile and I blew a gasket yelling at some of the crewabout what I didn't like about them and I had a plenty a thing to sayabout every one who mind you took it with a smile on their faces wellevery one except Rikardwhen I came to him my anger bubbled over and I sat quietly on theground blinking a few times I watched as he arched an eye brow

"whatabout me don't you have anything mean to say to me" he asked

Ishook my head

"nothingat all"

Ishook my head again and he sighed he looked up at the crew who weresmiling

"anyideas?" He asked "she's definitely not going to let any one carryher willingly"

"youguys are bastards" I got out grumbling in unprovoked anger

"thanks"said Gerobitterly "now shut up"

Iturned to him unhappily as I slowly got too my feet the crew smilesseemed to have grown bigger

"Idon't like you" I claimed pointing a finger at Gero

"that'salright because at the moment I don't like you either" he told me

hegave me a small shove and I fell back onto the ground Rikardsighed and I grumbled unhappily as I stood up again

"Ican walk" I claimed again

"mmhmr"said Khan"I'd like to see you walk in a straight line" I huffed

"fine"I said

"whatare you doing" Rikardhissed "don't encourage her"

Itook a step forwards in a shuffling motion then I started laughinglost my balance then fell over in a laughing fit the crew startedlaughing Rikardwas smiling too I laid back on the ground I heard Rikardsigh and I sat up and that was when I put my hands up puffing out mycheeks

"I'mafraid I am no longer a stand up comedian" I told them "seeing asI can no longer stand up"

theylaughed louder and harder causing me to smile

"youguys go ahead" Rikardsaid "before you end up getting into a punch up with her you knowhow quickly a drunk can turn bad"

"Iwon't get into a punch up" I said the smile dropping from my face"unless your names Gero?"

Ilooked to him and flicked him the bird every body laughed Geroincluded

"nowI see the reason why Angeldoesn't drink" said Gero"she turns into a devil"

"whoIs this Angelyou speak of?" I questioned

asI laid back on the ground looking up at every one. They were allsmiling down at me

"um?you" venture Forum

asI blinked a few times I sat up quickly gasping in pain I bowed myhead forwards causing every one to jump I held a hand to my woundedside

"ohthat's right" I said holding my now bloodied hand in front of myface Rikardsighed

"whatabout you?" asked Gallentlooking at me curiously "are you going to be able to handle a drunkAngelseeing as you can't handle a sober one?"

"Ican handle her no matter how intoxicated she it" he growled "whatgave you that idea?"

"well"said Gallent"seeing as you haven't told every one how you got those bruise onyour face"

Istarted giggling as I remembered what happened and Gallentsmiled expectantly

"Islapped hi----" I blurted out

Rikardwas quick to cover my mouth and stop me from saying anything else thecrew smiled at us

"enough"he said into my ear and my head lowered as he moved his hand away "you go ahead I am going to take advantage ofa very drunk Angel"

helooked to them and they nodded and they soon left the pub carrying apassed out Neon with them.after a few seconds Rikardstarted asking questions and my mouth started to talk on its own hesighed

"youare a hand full little one"

"Iknow" I said merrily

afew seconds passed between us as he smiled at the ground not lookingat me then he suddenly looked up I tilted my head to the side thenstraightened it

"theother day he said when I flirted to you, you remember right?"

Inodded

"didyou, did you like it when I talked to you like that?"

"yes"I said straight away "more than you think" he smiled

"andwhen I kiss you?" he venture and my eyes trailed to his lips henoticed my cheeks reddened and I quickly looked back to his eyes Inodded

"Iliked it more then I thought possible and when you pulled away Iwanted more" his eyes widened with surprise and he smirked allowingit to slowly drop away

"whatabout when I touch you?" he asked quickly and I gave him a lopsidedsmile

"yourtouch sends hot sparks flying across my skin"

"whatabout when I tried to you know" he made a small gesture with hishands "you remember yes?" he said his cheeks flashing red Inodded

"Ididn't want you to stop" I told him "I wanted you to go all theway, but..." I shook my head

hiseyes were wide but he shook it off as he nodded slowly as he took itall in

"okaywhat do you think about me?" I continued to smile

"Ifind you alluring and you make me very curiousness and self-consciousbut you very commanding and strong I don't think I could ever be likeyou. And I don't think you would ever want someone like me"

"youwant to be like me?" he asked smiling slightly and I nodded

"whowouldn't?" the smile dropped from my face "but your veryarrogant" I told him he sighed then nodded

"Iknow" he paused "want you?" he asked and I nodded

"I'mnot perky enough any were" I told him referring to the women he hadtried to 'get it on' with at the first place he took me he smiled alittle

"relax"he cooed "your perfect I'm just the one whose not good enough I'munable to love you the way you want to be loved please understand"I nodded slowly

"okay"I sighed sadly

"onelast thing" he said

andI watched as he licked his lower lip I tilted my head slightly

"myhead hurts" I told him he smiled

heraised a hand and caressed my head I grabbed his hand and held itgently he smiled

"I'msorry I bit your hand" I said quietly

"it'sokay" he said

usinghis other hand he lifted my chin up so I was looking at him my eyesstared into his as he sucked in a sharp breath then he leanedforwards and kissed the corner of my mouth my face flashed red hesmiled then took a deep breath

"d-d-doyou l-l-love me?" I stammered blushing even more he let my chin go

"whydo you ask that?" he said furrowing his eyebrows

"doyou?" I asked he smiled leaning closer

"Ilove you so much" he told me "so much that I can't comprehend"

Itilted my head to the other side and made an o shape with my mouth

"yousaid the l word" I claimed releasing his hand and he smiled pullingback

"thatI did but ... do you love me?" I looked down

"Idon't know you make me all confused body and mind my head says no butmy body says yes"

helooked at me thoughtfully as I yawn stretching my arms I laid down

"whatare you doing?" he asked

"sleeping"I told him

"youcan't sleep here" he said quickly

"yesI can" I told him "because I'm with you and when I'm with youI feel safe. trapped but safe"

andthen I slowly fell asleep

Iwoke to the noise of quiet feet on the deck I sat up rubbing my headas images from the other night flew threw my head I touched my lowerlip

"heasked me if I loved him" I mumbled "wait did I say yes or no Idon't remember?"

Islipped out of the bed and walked to the door and opened it carefullyto reveal the sleeping area with it's hammocks empty

"that'snew" I thought

asI slipped out the door and walked slowly up the stairs they creakedominously as I heard yelling that went quiet I took a pre-cation andgrabbed a sword and I opened the door and I let it fall closed behindme I still felt groggy from the drink so I was slow to react when Iheard Neonyell out as I got knocked against the head and I was out like alight.

888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888

Icame too I was tied up I struggled to get free but it was all in vainI looked up to see that the crew and Rikardwere also tied up Rikardwas being talked to by a man about his height with a bald head and hewas wearing red, well at least I hoped that it was red, shirthe turned around to face me, his eyes were a deep green, he walkedtowards me sword in hand he held it to my throat then his eyesnarrowed and he moved his sword down to my chest I held my breath asI felt the cold tip drag my shirt away but only far enough to revealthe branded mark over my heart he looked at it carefully

"Armenianhuh?" he said interest in his voice "well Ricky what abandonedisland did you pick this one up because I don't mind getting one formy ship?. she's quite a looker too very easy on the eyes" his voiceheld the interest while his eyes told another story

theman put the tip of his sword under my chin and lifted my head up Ididn't look at him

"lookat me" he said quietly

butI kept staring at the ground he said something angrily in anotherlanguage I looked up slightly at Rikard.he jutted his chin in a rising motion

'lookat him' he mouthed

"lookat me" he said again

thistime I looked up slowly and stared at him he chuckled like a maniac Imentally grimaced as we looked eye to eye

"andI must say she has the most striking blue eyes I can see why you likekeeping her around" he commented

heroughly pushed my head from side to side until finally forcing me tolook at him again

"nowsweet heart what's your name?"

Ifrowned then just like my hot head self I spat in his face herecoiled and Rikardfrowned at me and shook his head

"youwill regret that" Rikardmuttered

asthe man brought his hand fast and hard across my face I winced bitingmy tongue to stop a yelp of pain as blood fell from the corner of mymouth and down from my nose

"disobedientbitch" he spat

holdinghis sword to my throat Rikardtensed

"butthere's always a way to make your kind listen"

hepushed my head up so far that I thought I was going to break off thenand there I felt a tremor of fear pulse through my body

"waitfear I don't fear any body especially Rikardand he seems to be the worst that you can get"

butI was wrong as I began to shake with fear he chuckled with enjoyment

"areyou scared of me Yakuta?" (kitten) I swallowedhard

"why?"I breathed calming my heart "why would I be scared of a psychoticson of a bitch like you?"

thatdid it he pushed my head roughly to the side he rested the sword justbehind my left ear then he cut my body jerked with pain as he turnedmy head back to him and I once again faced those manic green eyes

"thereare many things I am thinking about doing to you and one of thosethings, is pushing you down in front of your captain andhaving my way with you" he explained huskily "now then Yakuta(kitten) if you don't want that I suggest you behavelike a good kitten"

hepulled away from me and I looked to Rikardsface which was consumed in anger either towards me or the man I feltmyself panic I really was scared I dropped my head feeling a tremorof exhaustion flow through me slowly

"nowthen Yakuta" (kitten) he said to me "what doyou say to your master"

Isaid nothing at his words I kept my jaw clenched tight

"yournot my master" I said he tisked

"amI going to have to"

hereached a hand out and grabbed a fist full of my hair yanking my headup I yelped with surprise and pain Rikardjerked forwards in anger

"teachyou a lesson" he purred

he yanked my head forwards causing a strangled yelp to come from mythroat

"whatdo you say?" he growled

"sorry"I whimpered quietly to tired and frightened to fight back

thecrew gasped at my words and Rikardseyes went wide like a doe in head lights and I knew what he wasthinking, not even he could get me to say that word in particular, Ifelt tears brimming in my eyes as jowl pulled his hand out of my nowreally tangled hair that fell in front of my eyes

"good"he said straightening "now what is your name kitten?"

thatwas one thing I was not going to give him I kept my jaw closed and mygaze averted I flicked my hair out of my face

"tut"he said

pressingthe sword to my throat raising my chin lifting my head to make eyecontact with him

"haveyou not learnt your lesson?"

"leaveher alone" Rikardspat

causingthe crew to look at him with a look of surprise he was usually thelast to yell out the man turned to look at Rikardhe walked over to him

"whatdid you say too me?"

Rikardstayed quiet averting his gaze from the man he knew he had spoke outof turn and now was not the best time for that

"comeon speak up" he coaxed

hepointed his sword to Rikardseye I let out a quiet gasp that not even the crew could hear theman's body tensed as Rikardcontinued not to speak

"tellme or I'll give you the nickname patch" he said in no jokingmanner "and I think the women prefer you with two peepers yes?"

hedirected that question at me I tensed Rikardgulped and sighed

"wellJowl I said leave her alone" he stated boldly "it is my place tomake her cry and tremble in fear not yours"

theman chuckled wickedly he looked up and down the length of his swordthen brought it across Rikardsface I jumped as I watched the blood run down his once unmarked faceI felt the blood drain from my face as he now turned to me andpressed the bloodied sword firmly against my neck drawing more bloodI kept my gaze situated forwards watching the blood fall from Rikardsface and onto the deck I was visibly shaking

"Idon't think your in any position to be barking orders hmm captain?"he shouted to Rikardover his shoulder

afew seconds passed without anyone saying anything only the softlapping of water against the side of the ship and the patter ofRikardsand i's blood on the deck

"whatdo you want?" Rikardgot out and Jowl smiled wickedly

"whatever your willing to give and whatever your not" he answered Rikardsighed

"everything"he muttered

heshot me a subtle look and the man caught on turning to me he chuckled

"heyhere's an idea"

heraised my head turning my face from side to side again

"I'mliking the look of this treasure"

Rikardseyes widened he slowly shook his head opening his mouth to speak butquickly closed it again

"howabout I take her off your hands?" Rikardshook his head weakly

"don't"he begged quietly Jowls smile turned deranged as he heard Rikardsvoice

"Icould make use of her very well" he gave me a wink and my stomachknotted as his eyes raked me over "how about a personal stripper?"

Rikardsface lite up with pure rage and pain as he pulled on his bonds withall the strength he had

"DON'TYOUDARE TOUCH HER!" He roared Jowl chuckled

"therereally is nothing you can do about it"

hecontinued to hold the sword to my throat as he undid the bonds thenpressed the sword firmly to my neck and pressed it up making me risethen he grabbed my arm

"leaving"he yelled motioning to his ship

Isaw Rikardsface and I felt a pleading look take over my face if I really was tobe with pirates then they are the pirates I want to be with

'Iwill find you' he mouthed to me

'please?'I mouthed back looking from him to Jowl

andhe nodded then he began to tug at the bonds with some determinationas I pulled back at my captor

"Irefuse to go with you" I grunted pulling back harder

"youdo hmm?" he said his voice held some amusement "Yakuta(kitten)look at the person holding the sword and look at yourself I don'tthink you have much of a choice"

Isaw some of his crew smirk I clenched my jaw then with all mystrength I stomped down hard on his foot he let out a strangled noiseas he haunched over slightly but he still did not let me go

"afighter" he said weakly "I like that"

hehit the side of my head with the hilt of his sword he let me go as Istaggered back dizzy my head was reeling I looked up at him only tofind it was a heavy wooden rod that hit me not the sword

"wellthen" he said with a laugh "are you going to fight me TigrottaMia?" (Little tiger girl)

Ifaced him and he laughed dashing towards me my eyes widened I wasstill dizzy and groggy not at all suitable for fighting he hit me inthe side then the head and I crumpled to the ground like a scare crowthat lost it's supports my vision went hazy my eyes were open and Iwas awake just unresponsive

"letthat be our first little lesson in obedience kitten" he told me

asmy body became numb and my vision slowly darkened as I fainted

888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888

Igasped as I was hit by a cold wave of water

"therewe go" he said

Ilooked around I was in what looked like his room. tied to his bed instar fish formation I felt exposed I was still fully clothed just wetthe man chuckled running his finger down my side I flinched away fromhis touch but there was really no where to go

"mymy my" he said "what a mess you have gotten yourself into nodoubt your captain won't heed my warning and come after youTrigrotta" (little tiger)

hestood up from his current position to stand straight

"butwho wouldn't want to get a little toy like you back hmm?"

Ipulled at my restraints hard they made quiet twangs on the head boardhe smiled down at me

"nowthen" he said "seeing as your aching to get out of thathorrid position my men have put you into but first I need you to be agood girl kitten"

hestretched his hand out and stroked my cheek and I turned my head tobite his fingers he pulled back chuckling

"that'snot what I wanted"

hetap my nose he pulled a dagger out

"nowlet me explain I need you to be a good girl if you want me to be anice man and take these ropes off okay"

Iclenched my jaw this was going against every thing I stand for

"okay?"

toallow a man to control me a man I didn't want to control me

"yes"I said as strongly as I could he smiled

"goodkitten"

heslowly sawed through the ropes on my wrists and then moved down to myankles he slowly and leisurely dragged his hand down my leg I triedto move them away but they were still tied my face turned red

"s-stop"I got out and he chuckled

"soyou only like it when your captain does it?" he questioned

Iknew he was talking about Rikardbut I couldn't help but answer back with something he wasn'texpecting

"he'snot my captain and you won't be either" I spat

"tuttut tut" he said shaking his finger "do you want lesson two inobedience because I don't think I do seeing as you were out for threedays last time"

hemoved the dagger to my tied ankles and sawed them free to I laidthere for a few seconds then pulled my knees close to my chest andsighed I looked up to see him staring at me intensely I blinked a fewtimes as he straightened up he prowled towards me dagger in hand myeyes widened and I panicked looking left and right I rolled off thebed putting it between us he chuckled

"Ilike a women who plays hard to get" he purred

hewalked around the bed towards me and I froze I was certain he wasn'tgoing to do that I thought about rolling over the bed again but hecame towards me quickly he pushed me against the wall I squealed infright and he only laughed like a maniac I shivered with fear

"ooo"he said mockingly "you are scared of me more that your piratefriend Rikardhmm answer me" he said

asI remained silent shuddering at his tone he grabbed my face forcingme to look at him

"y-y-yes"I stammered afraid of what he would do to me
