The sun was starting to show over the horizon. Jean noticed his look out in the crows nest had awaken. It was still way earlier than he expected any of his men to be awake. He pulled out a compass and a map he had brought with him from his room and started to examine the two closly. A puzzled look came across his face. His compass was saying the ship was going East when they needed to be going North. This was a big problem it meant that the men who were supposed to check on the position of the ship throughout the night had not been doing so. Usually this wasnt even a matter because they sailed freely until the ocean brought them to land but in this case they needed to get back to land and then get back within a days distance of The Port. Jean Started to correct the ships path in hopes they were not too far off course but only time would tell how far they were away from where they needed to be.

Bella looked around the ship almost curiously, yet, she felt rather out of place. She knew on occassion she would get glances from passing men, but she ignored it. Her arms crossed over her chest to block out the early chill of the air.

Jean noticed Bella walking around the ship he smiled and waved her over "Hey bella come over her wanna see something interesting?" He spoke in an excited tone almost childlike.

Bella blinked and raised a brow as Jean signaled her over, even more so at his energy. She did not speak a word, but walked over to him curiously, pushing a bit of hair out of her face. Even in the early morning, the color of her eyes seemed far too surreal.

When Bella got there Jean pointed at the map. So last night some of my men were slacking off and forgot to make sure the ship was sailing in the right direction, Sounds like a bad thing i know but listen to this. This ship being the amazing piece of beauty that is it sailed so far off course were close to my home town. Most of the men on this ship are from around there so we decided to to stop there for a few days. Isn't this great we hav'nt been home in over a year. I can't wait. You''ll love it there theres a fancy dress shop my aunt owns maybe we can get you something. Gah i cant wait" Jean jumped with excitment.

Bella blinked, a bit confused at the sudden change in demeanor. She raised a brow for a moment, but shook her head at his energy. Well, the male certainly never stopped suprising her...

"Aw man I can't wait but right now I need food. Care to join me and the boys for some breakfast?" Jean said still unable to contain his excitment.

Bella was still a bit confused at his sudden energy. So... She really didn't think while she responded. "Um. Alright?" She replied, watching him with a raised brow still.

They got to breakfast and Jean could only look at his food "I'm way to hyper to eat. Ah so how did you sleep last night?"

Bella picked slightly at her food, ignoring the looks she was recieving from the rest of the crew. Absentmindedly, she tugged at her shirt to try and cover herself more. "Um... Alright, I suppose," She replied simply. She had passed out after convincing herself it was alright; she needed that sleep.

"Hm well did you need anything else that you didn't have last night?" Jean asked wondering why her night wasnt completly enjoyable, to him that bed was one of the most comfortable beds ever. Then again it was more than obviously beneath whatever she would have at her house.

Bella shook her head lightly, still a bit confused by his motives. Was she not supposed to be captive, made to die if her father did not give them what they wanted? Why is it that she was being treated as if otherwise. "Um. No; Nothing." She explained, eyeing Jean for a moment.

Jean smiled and closed his eyes while moving his hand behind his hand in a relaxed way "Relax you may be a hostage but your still a guest. I'm going to do my best to accomindate you. Although I'm not sure how much longer I can keep sleeping on the floor." He moved his hand to his back and pushed out cracking it. He laughed a bit as he thought this to be a joke, he wasn't sure if she would think it was funny.

"Still..." Bella began, eyeing him skeptically. "It is... unexpected." She explained as she sat up straight in her chair again. She glanced around the table to the rest of the crew warily and pulled up her shirt again to cover herself better.

"Like I said before," Bella began, glancing down at her food once more. "It is a rather unexpected trait for a pirate to have," She explained. After all, where she came from, pirates were known to be disgusting men living out on the ocean, living only to rape and pillage. And though, these men had fit most of those qualities she was shocked at almost the humanity of them.

"Hm well I guess were just a different breed of pirates...that or my men listen when I tell them not to make you feel uncomfortable." Jean said with a small smirk.

Bella remained uncharacteristically quiet at the moment. She glanced down at her food, still eating slowly. Her etiquette was still nearly flawless, taking the part of a Lady, even if she was not dressed as such. Her thoughts were reeling, wondering if she would ever get off of this blasted boat, and get away from all of them...
