Taehyung's POV

"Ahoy, rise and shine royalty, we have a big day ahead of ye." I heard the pirate captain call nearby while one of his crew rang a bell to make us wake up.

This was far from the life I live where we'd wake up after sleeping in, then get brought breakfast in bed which differed from pancakes with maple syrup, crepes, waffles, eggs on toast or Korean stews.

I was still processing everything that happened yesterday and barely slept last night.

It was weird enough sleeping on uncomfortable wooden beds that were suspended by the wall.

Or even more weird was sleeping in a room with other people. It may have just been the people I arrived here with but it was still something far from normal.

I sat up shirtless, the itchy brown blanket sitting still on my lap.

I decided not to wear a shirt last night so that my shirt and singlet wouldn't smell, seeing as I only have one pair of clothes.

Only it was now my downfall that I have exposed my entire tanned chest to the pirate that I fancy, well that is if he looks in my direction.

He currently had his attention on my brother who pulled his blanket above his head, not wanting to wake up.

The captain placed his candle stick on a wooden shelf before walking over to the bed my brother slept in and yanked his blanket off him.

My brother whined as the pirate spoke clearly, "Up, don't test my patience today *landlubber."

(*Landlubber - a person who is uncomfortable, or not incredibly skilled, at sea)

I diverted my gaze from the male, focusing on putting on my tank top and white long sleeve shirt before getting out of bed.

"What are we doing today- er- captain?" I heard Jimin ask from the bed closet to mine.

We slept in rows, either side of a hallway which is not far from where we walked down a flight of stairs to do rowing, basically in the middle of the ship is where we slept.

I stretched my arms out above my head as they ached a bit from yesterday's rowing, and then I waited for his reply.

The captain made his way closer to Jimin and I before he spoke.

"You'll be doing some work, whether that is rowing or cleaning, and then Jimin can make those of you's without clothes some more outfits." He answered, his voice sounding like a rich melody.

He knows Jimin's name? And he knows he's a fashion designer? But how?

When did they speak to one another and why do I feel sort of jealous.

"What about bathing and eating?" I heard Namjoon ask from behind the captain.

"I can show you all where the showers are and you can eat lunch after you have done some work." The male said while placing his hands on his hips.

"Great because I am starving." Jin commented from further down the hallway.

Now that the captain focused on Jin and Namjoon, I took in the sight of the captain's outfit.

Today he wore a red wine toned blouse, a shell necklace hanging around his neck, visible due to his top buttons being undone.

He also wore a dark brown cardigan with brown baggy pants, and a brown weapon belt; only this time a curved silver pirate sword hung in it.

He looked ravishing.

Only the sword is a tad scary considering today he is wearing it for protection or to seem more mighty.

Maybe he plans on using it around my brother.

I silently followed behind him and the others towards what I presumed would be the showers.

"Here we are." He stated.

My eyes fell on a wall of shower heads.

"Pull the curtains if you want privacy while showering, many of my crew don't so avert your eyes if it makes you royalty uncomfortable." He spoke up.

"Toilets are just further along, through those doors over there," He said pointing to the area that was just past the showers as beyond that was just a wooden wall.

"The only other place to take a piss is the head of the ship where there are basically slots in the ship that you can piss on, just don't miss or I will make you clean up." He spat.

I scrunched up my nose to the thought of publicly doing my business.

"Oh and please don't have any kind of sexual recreation. My crew often break this rule in ere, but I expect none of you too. Your desires can wait until you are back on land." He snapped with his back turned to us as he began to leave the shower area, possibly embarrassed that he had to explain this.

"I'll send my crew to fetch you all in half an hour to work so shower if you're going too." He called while I and the others watched him leave.

My eyes darted back to the showers now, noticing there were only five shower heads.

I watched as one after one, everyone took to a shower head.

"I'll shower tomorrow so you can shower now your highness." I heard Yoongi say.

I then looked beside me at Jimin who was left.

I know Jimin can't go a day without showering, he's too high maintenance as a fashion designer who always wants perfect hygiene and cleanliness.

"Share?" Jimin suggested.

"Yeah, why not." I responded.

While I'd never showered before with someone else, I did not mind sharing a shower with my best friend.

After all he has seen me naked before due to dressing me.

It is more Jimin's body that I have not seen.

Once we were inside and pulled the curtain closed, Jimin softly whispered to me so that the others wouldn't hear us.

"Are you sure you can shower naked with me?" He asked softly.

"Yeah, why?" I whispered back.

"Well I am male and you are attracted to males." Jimin whispered again.

Jimin is the only person who knows I'm homosexual, well other than me of course.

I scoffed before answering, "That doesn't mean anything. You are my friend and nothing more. Plus no 'sexual recreation' right?" I quoted from the captain.

Jimin softly laughed before nodding with an "okay."

We then got undressed and quickly showered.

I kept my eyes up out of respect for Jimin, especially due to the awkwardness that he may feel.

We then got dressed before opening the curtain.

We noticed we were the last ones to have showered, only one of the crew waited for us.

His eyes shone amused by the fact we showered together, only he didn't comment as he led us back to the others who waited by our beds.

"Captains orders are yee; Seok-Jin and Hoseok are to clean, you will be mopping the deck to begin with and then yee will follow Captain's orders after," The pirate explained, sticking his hands into loose baggy green pant pockets.

"The rest of yee will be rowing until you're required to stop by Captain." He said, a thick pirate-like tone accenting his words.

The pirate then led Jin and Hoseok up to the deck of the ship.

The rest of us walked towards the rowing room stairs.

"Ah." I whined, feeling my bare feet on wooden splinters.

"Are you okay?" Jimin muttered from behind me.

"Yeah, I just wish I still had my shoes." I mumbled while Jimin helped me down the stairs that I lightly stepped on.

We then began to work.

*Heave ho, off to work we go...

(*Heave ho - instruction to put some strength into whatever one is doing.)
