At Sea
{Edited}
"THIS IS THE BEST! THING! EVER!" Lamia clings to my arm running about the deck pointing out every little detail screaming in excitement like a child. I was literally dragged around by this child.
"OH! LOOKIE! THERE ARE FISHIES!" She points to the ocean blue as the ship sails with a mighty heap of wind. "OH MY GOD ITS A SEAGULL! IT'S A FLYING SEAGULL!"
She let go of my arm and ran up ahead of me trying to chase after it. I let out a sigh rubbing my forehead in distress and make my way over to the rails of the ship taking in the heartwarming wind and scent of the salty ocean.
"You enjoying yourself there?" I jump a little in surprise as I look over to see Sinbad standing beside me with a smile on his face as he stares at the ocean.
"Yes, it has been a while since I have seen the sea. Felt its gentle breeze. It's so nostalgic to me," I smile to myself as I stare out to the ocean blue besides Sinbad as the wind makes my (h/c) hair dance in the wind.
"So you've seen the sea?" Sinbad raises his eyebrow smirking as I felt his glowing gold eyes on me.
"No I totally haven't that's why I am not screeching at the top of my throat like Lamia over there," I said sarcastically pointing to a wild child running everywhere.
Sinbad let out a soft settle chuckle smiling to me.
"Quite the ball of energy she is."
"More like a child on energy. She dragged me everywhere and I felt my soul be drained with each second," I roll my eyes laughing a little.
"So you are human."
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" I sent him a glare.
"Hey watch your mouth there, little miss. That isn't very ladylike to use such vulgar language," He laughs nervously as the wind made his hair sway around.
I giggle sticking my tongue out playfully.
"Blep. Whatever your royal highness."
"(Y/N)!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Lamia runs over to us waving her hands in the air like a crazy person.
"Yes Lamia?"
"Let's sing!" She says as soon as she stood in front of me with her green eyes glimmering with hope.
"No."
"Yes!"
"No."
"Yes!"
"No!"
"YES, WOMAN!"
"No child!" I walk away from her until she attempts to stop me as she quickly grabs desperately onto my leg.
"Please! I will let you have my dessert tonight!" I let out a sigh as grabbed some random instruments from my bag and perform a simple magic spell allowing the instruments to play by their selves.
(Cue Song)
Lamia and I sang as we dance around the deck. I am so glad to have brought Lamia with me. She keeps my sanity from peaking since she is like a little sister. I use a simple spell to add more special effects as I levitate water from the ocean to float around us which shimmered so brightly from reflecting the sunlight. I couldn't help but smile as Lamia and dance together. Having so much freedom is such a glorious feeling. I feel like I have wings when I dance so freely. I have no obligations no standards to uphold to anymore. No chains or title to hold me back from expressing my joy in music and dancing. I grab Ja' far's hand pulling him in dancing around him playfully and laugh as Lamia tries to pull in Masrur who technically had to be talked into joining the dancing. I felt a smile form on my face. Despite the song being so strong I can't help but feel so happy. As the song comes closer to the end I jump around and spun around until I accidentally slip and fell backward waiting to hit the ground but instead, I fell into a pair of strong arms.
"Woah there haha, falling for me already are we?"
I look up to be face to face with Sinbad who was just inches from my face. I felt my cheeks grow warm as I pull away from him quickly.
"Whatever!" I state as I go back to Lamia and we continued to sing and dance.
[Timeskip]
I didn't want to sleep in the hammocks so I climb up to the nest and brought a blanket with me and a few pillows. Including a small candle to give me some sort of light source. I smile as I stare up the starry night sky.
"I wished you were here mom," I spoke to myself softly. "You would have loved this view. I hope you are looking up at this lovely night sky. We would cuddle together with Aaqil telling us silly stories."
I laughed to myself remembering those sweet memories. But now... they've become so bitter.
So bitter...
"It's going to be alright."
I let out a yelp as I turn around to see Sinbad smiling at me and sent me a wink.
"Sinbad! Stop fucking popping everywher...!!!"
"Shh~" He places a finger on my lips cutting me off.
"Don't shout. We don't want to alarm the whole ship." He leans closer to my face making me blush as I quickly put distance between us nodding slowly.
"Good girl, now tell me. Why aren't you in bed?"
"I am in bed," I point out the large pile of pillows around us and a large blanket. Sinbad was a bit dumbstruck but let out a simple laugh which made me blush.
"Hey! Don't laugh okay! I just like sleeping under the moon and stars."
I extend my arms out to the sky.
"I wished I was a star. The way they shine so bright and freely hang in the sky," I laugh a little looking away from him covering the blush covering my face. "I get it must be a little silly huh?"
There was a moment of silence.
Sinbad stays quite staring intently into my (e/c) eyes with his eyes of gold. As the wind brushes pass us as (h/c) strands of hair sway along the sides of my face.
He gently caresses my cheek smiling softly staring deeply into my eyes leaning closer and closer to my face.
"You are so... remarkable," Sinbad hums softly to me but in a low voice that entranced me. I felt my heart race with each second.
"Y...your highness. You should go to sleep...," I spoke softly averting my gaze looking down into my lap. I hear him smirk as he leans in closer to my face. My eyes widen in wonder and amazement as he placed a simple peck on my cheek.
"Then I suppose I shall do so. Sleep well, princess."
And that was the last thing he said before he left for the night.
This is going to be a strange experience at sea.
