Across Seas Remade Mark II

"For me to know and for you to find out."
_____

She sighed. "That was when I was a first mate, now I have a lot to prove."

Darcy exhaled slowly, moving her hand to walk her fingers up his leg. "I'm very good at keeping secrets." She hummed, her voice lowering to a more sultry tone.

---
"The crew love you for who you are, stop trying to be anyone else."

He raised an eyebrow. "Well, what brought you round to my way of thinking?"
_____

She sighed. "You're right."

"Takes a hell of a man to be able to stand up to me and take control the way you did," She shrugged. "Now.. Tell me about this little revenge plot you have."

----
"If shecis scared down there then.. Treat her with the same kind of gentle you treat Rico with. We dont know what the woman has been through, but the state of her when we pulled her up onto deck it hasnt been anything good."

He smiled. "And what makes me believe that you won't go and tell my brother about my plan?" He asked.
______

She sighed. "I can't get close to her...She knows what I am."

"What can I do to prove to you I won't," She hummed, leaning up to whisper it in his ear.

---
"Then.. Let Kovu, myself and the other guys relay the messages to her. Start feeding her properly instead of giving her left overs like you did this morning."

"I'm sure we could come to some arrangement." He told her, moving a hand up the inside of her skirts.
_______

"Well Kovu didn't exactly tell me what she wanted and that was all we had." She told him.

Darcy inhaled sharply, edging away slightly and humming: "So come on, big man, start talking."

----
"You gave her left overs." Wyatt repeatsd.

"And what do I get in return?"
________

"I've already explained myself, what more do you want from me?" She snapped, she didn't mean to snap but the curse was taking its toll, she still wasn't used to the idea of being without her dad, and being captain was just making her stressed, she hadn't meant it, but she got one of the other crew members to take over steering and she walked away.

"I think I have made it quite clear,"

---
"For you to be you." Wyatt muttered, watching her go.

"Hmm, not really darling." He told her.
______

Amora hadn't heard him as she walked she bumped into her brother. "What?" SHe snapped.

"What the hell is the matter with you?" He asked.

"You know what happens when another woman comes into my territory, I get antsy for a few days and then get over it, just leave me alone."

Darcy tool a deep breath, in deeo thiught forca while before she cast an apologetic side glance to where she knew Jack was. Figuring forcing herself to be affectionate to Mark was better than not knowing his plans, worried his revenge plans involved hurting Jack and determined to find out what they were so she could keep Jack safe. Hesitantly she lifted a hand up to rest it on the back of Mark's head, pulling him forward to press her lips to his.

---
Wyatt watched them, shaking his head before heading into the kitchen to help Rico with some chores.

He quickly took control of the kiss, he was more forward than his brother, but was still a good kisser.
__________

Amora locked herself in her father's study, just sitting at the table, looking through documents.

Half way through the day, Bella became brave enough to come up onto deck. Though she stuck to the corners, trying to remain unseen.

----
Darcy instinctively recoiled, being unable to help it. Turning her head away.

Kovu was working on deck, talking to the crew.
____

He smirked. "Looks like I'm not telling you anything princess." He told her, before he got up and left.

Darcy waited until he had gone before wiping at her eyes before tears could fall, trembling. Seeming genuinely scared of Mark.

----
Bella hesitantly wandered over, standing at his side

Jack walked over to her and he slid his hands into hers.
_____

Kovu looked at her. "Hey."

"I'm sorry," Darcy mumbled shakily, "I couldn't do it."

---
"Hi,"

"It's alright." He told her. "I've got to admist I did not enjoy watching it, but I asked yout to do what you felt you had to do and you did."
________

"How are you feeling?"

"And we have no more infomation then we did before," She muttered, resting her head on his shoulder.

----
"Ok.. Tired, I'm always tired though."

"Let's try not to worry, he could have been lying and this is just a rest stop."
_____

He nodded. In understanding.

"And if he wasn't? If he's after you?"

---
"Pretend I'm not here," Bella whispered, "Keep on with your.. Conversation?"

"Then we will deal with it."
_____

"Bella you can be part of it too."

"I just want to listen." Bella whispered.

----
"We can't deal with it if we don't know what he's planning." She whined in frustration

"There's still the chance that he isn't planning anything."
_____

He nodded. "Alright."
