Sleeping Next to the Pirate King

"Miss Mila!"

I looked to the door as my crew members and the noblewomen entered. I smiled. These suckers are actually quite fun of a crew.

"Hey, how are you guys doing?"

Clarabella and Daniella ran to me and enveloped me with their arms. I hugged them back. Clarabella was speaking through her tears.

"Mila! I was so worried when I saw you go underwater like that."

Wait a second. That reminds me, how is the ship still okay right now?

"Wait Wilhelm who repaired the ship?"

"No ship was repaired Miss Mila, we seemed to have stumbled on a ship which was nice enough to take us all in."

I had assumed so but I wonder who the owner of the ship is. Is it someone as crazy as Baron?

I suddenly felt someone slap the back of my head. I winced.

"You stupid bitch why did you save us before yourself?"

I chuckled at Jacia's expression. She was smoking a large cigar as I looked at her swollen red eyes. So she was crying as well?

"Because I put all of you before myself. When we get on land we will find ourselves a ship and you guys will be my new formed crew. Are there any objections?"

"No, Captain Mila!"

I laughed as they all said that unanimously. I honestly planned to become a captain of a ship if I can't find a way to go back home. The least I can do is travel the world and look at it during the past. This is better than any history book that I've read as I get to experience it personally. To get the capital needed for my travels I need to turn in Baron to gain the reward. Despite knowing that a feeling of melancholy filled me. I shook it off. What am I hesitating for? All that man has done for me so far was give me a couple of good words. Did I fall in love with him for such a trivial reason? No.

For some reason an image of a smiling Baron holding me in his arms cane to mind. I slammed the table and sighed. I was not acting as myself ever since I woke up. This was quite troublesome.

Suddenly, a waft of barbecued meat reached my nose.

"Is the kitchen close by?"

Zarfia nodded as she answered.

"The kitchen is right next to your room Miss Mila."

I smiled. The best way to get over an issue is to eat. I stood up from my chair but the world suddenly turned upside down. Several pairs of hands held me up. They belonged to Jacia, Josh, and Ash.

Shit. I was still weak. Daniella's voice then rose into the air.

"I will bring you food Mila, don't move with your injury."

I sighed. God I really wish that I was in the 21st century again. This wound would have healed ages ago with modern medicine. People died from common colds during this time after all. I smiled at Daniella. My crew members then set me on the bed and followed the noblewomen out of the room.

As I closed my eyes I felt a familiar hand touch my forehead. I then felt someone kiss my forehead then whisper.

"Good night my dear wife."

For some reason with that statement I smiled and drifted right to sleep.
