Cuttlefish

"There you go mate!" Jack said, pulling me to my feet. "Just have to find your sea legs!" I nodded and tried to walk. I stumbled on the crashing waves but eventually began to get the hang of it.

"I look like a total idiot!" I laughed.

"No love," jack said, "you look like a cuttlefish."

"Well you look like a drunken pirate!"

"Well what do you think I am?!"

"Point taken." I said, laughing, "I need food."

"well, you're random!"

"Just give me some food!"

"Fine, ... Cuttlefish."

We sat to dine in the captain's quarters. Granted we were in the middle of the ocean so our dinner was mostly crackers. Naturally, Jack also had himself a bottle of rum. Halfway through our meal, he held it out to me saying, "You're a pirate! Have some rum!" I looked at him laughing, "You drunken pirate!" He, of course, returned the favor by saying, "You little cuttlefish!" I then realized he had never learned of my real name.

"Uh, Jack?" I asked, a bit timidly, "Kat, my name is Kat."

"So, the cuttlefish has a name!"

"Yes, but you may call me cuttlefish if you want."

"Okay cuttlefish."

Authors note: the name Kat is a shout out to my friend Natalie, aka Nat-Nat. I have decided to use her name for me katKat
