Saved

"Look fish, the sun is setting." Jack said. I ran to the railway and looked out over the horizon. "It's beautiful Jack." I said. I leaned my back against the edge of the ship and thought, 'It's so wonderful.' I should have known it was a bad idea to lean back so carelessly. Before I knew it, a wave knocked me over and I fell with a splash, to the sea below. "Cuttlefish!" Jack yelled, tearing of his hat and coat. He dove into the water. "Jack!" I yelled, alas I tried to keep my head above the water. I thought it was the end for me, until I felt something grab me and pull me towards the ship. I fell against the deck, coughing up water. "You alright love?" Jack asked, a worrided tone to his voice.

"Jack! You saved my life!" I gasped, "Thank you!"

"Think nothing of it. But I won't be jumping in after you every time you decide to fall off the ship, Savvy?"

I shivered and he wrapped his coat around my shoulders.

"We better get you inside. Don't want the cuttlefish to freeze." He joked, guiding me towards his cabin. Inside hung a single hammock that I sat beside him on.

"Jack?" I asked, "why did you save me? Besides, Ime just a silly cuttlefish."

He looked over at me me said, "Well, you're my cuttlefish."
