Other Fan Fiction ❯ The Treasure of Oritemp ❯ Part IX ( Chapter 9 )

Ben was asleep at his desk and Argus was sitting in a chair smoking his pipe.

"Sirius is back on board," she says, "As my guest."

Argus coughs and drops his pipe.

"Sirius? You found him? He's here!?" he shouts, clearly excited.

"Yes, and asleep," she says.

"Asleep? Who cares! Take me to the boy, I want to see him."

She frowned.

"You better not wake him," she said.

"Of course I will. That boy needs to be taught a lesson."

Her eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Then you better wait until he wakes up," she hisses, "He hasn't had a good nights sleep in a year."

Argus sighs and sits back in his chair.

"Alright, I'll wait..." he says in defeat.

"Good... I'll be sleeping on the floor in my room... so I'll know if you come in."

With that, she turns and goes back to her area, though instead of the floor, she ends up falling asleep at her desk instead.

The next morning, Sirius finally wakes up and stretches, feeling more awake now than he had in the past year. Arianna was still asleep, her head in her arms and her hair covering her face. Sirius smiles when he sees her and goes to the desk, picks her up and brings her to the bed. As she slept, she cuddled into his chest and sighed in content. When he went to lay her down, she wouldn't let go of his shirt, as if she was afraid, even in her sleep that he would leave again. Sirius, with a sigh, sits down on the bed and holds her to him, trying not to wake her. She woke up about an hour later and yawned, finally releasing his shirt, but not wanting to move because of the warmth.

“About time,” Sirius says with a smile.

She looked up at him and smiles slightly.

"Good morning," she murmurs, her hands rested on his stomach as she leans up and kisses him.

Sirius didn't expect the kiss, but kisses her back regardless.

"Now go shave," she teases.

"Now?"

"Yes now... you need to be presentable... you're my guest."

Sirius sighs and gets to his feet.

"Fine. But these are pirates. Do you really think that they care about being presentable?" he asks.

"Of course not... I just like you better with a clean face."

Sirius smiles as he walks into the washroom and begins to mix the ingredients. Arianna liked the fact that he seemed to be smiling more and she busied herself with making the bed as he cleaned up. When he finished, he came out of the washroom, rubbing his shaven face and tracing his scar with a finger.

"Where did you get that scar?" she asks.

Sirius's smile disappears as he thinks about it.

"The day my mother died... dubree hit me..." he says.

"Oh... sorry for bringing it up."

She went over to him and hugged him.

"It's okay."

"But you are no longer smiling... and I like seeing you smile."

"I'm sorry... I just don't like to think about those times..."

“It's okay.”

Sirius shakes his head. "Lets not worry about it. Is Argus here?" he asks.

She looked a little down hearted, but she nods.

"Yeah, he's in the Captain's Cabin."

Sirius didn't waste any time leaving her room and making his way to the cabin. She sat on her bed and leaned against the wall.

"Yeah, good to have you back," she mutters.

Sirius enters the cabin and looks around for Argus. When the two see each other, they both laugh and hug one another. As the two talked, shouting could be heard from the other side of the door as the men started to awake and go about their duties, the voice belonged to Arianna. Argus smiles at Sirius and nods to the door.

"Go see how she does. She'll make a fine captain someday," he says.

Sirius smiles back at him and goes out to see how she does. Arianna was moving swiftly through the ranks of pirates, checking their work and correcting those who were doing their job wrong. When men didn't listen, she put them in their place and she barked orders just like a captain would. Sirius watches her and smiles, feeling proud yet sad. Eventually, when she was sure everything was under control, she crossed her arms and stood by the wheel, waiting for Ben to take his place. Ben had been wandering the ship as she went about her rounds. When she was ready, his went to the wheel and spoke to her.

"All is well then?" he asks.

"Yes Captain," she says with a short nod, her eyes still scanning the crew for any slackers, "Is there anything you wish for me to do today?"

"Yes, take today and go to your man," Ben says, it was clearly an order.

She was surprised, but nodded her head before going over to Sirius.

"He... uh... ordered me to spend time with you," Arianna said, "Well... if you want to anyway... he put it more like 'go to your man'."

Sirius smiles and chuckles.

"I heard. I was listening," he says.

"Oh... so... what would you like to do?" she asks.

"Anything really."

"Like what? I haven't seen you in a year, is there nothing specific you want to do? Or talk about?"

She seemed a bit nervous as she spoke, but she hid it well.

"Well... Tell me how you became the first mate?"

"Well... It kind of just happened. Ben saw some of the other pirates teaching me and I caught on very fast, in fact, faster than anyone else did really. When I wasn't doing that, I was working on my blacksmithing and more often than not, I was the one who took control when Ben was asleep, sick or injured... his original first mate kinda got shoved over board."

She offered a sly smile and stretched out.

"What about you? What have you done in this past year?"

"I spent some time trying to get my ship back... but obviously it didn't go so well... After that, I just gave up and went from port town to port town... eventually getting to where you used to live. I assumed you'd never make it back there so I decided to stay," Sirius explains.

“So you… didn't want to see me?” she asks softly.

“Then… no… but I felt empty.”

She was silent, looking at the clean deck.

"What about now? If I told you I love you... what would you say now?"

"I don't know... is missing someone when they're gone, even if they annoy you to death, and them wanting to hold them when they are around, called love?" Sirius asks.

Arianna seemed to think for a moment and then looked up at Sirius.

"You wanted to hold me?" she questions.

"I did... I do."

She had to fight the urge to just kiss him there; instead, she hugged him tightly.

"I do love you..."

Sirius hugs her back and rests his head in her hair.

"I... I love you too," he says softly.

Her hug became a bit tighter and she hid her face in his chest. Sirius does the same, kissing the top of her head.

"I have the whole day, what would you like to do?" she asks.

          &n bsp;    "Well, we're on a ship. Not much to do is there?"

            ;    "I guess not," she murmurs.

          &n bsp;    "I'll do whatever you want."

            ;    "No... I want you to pick something," she says softly, loving the warmth his body provided.

          &n bsp;    "Well... why don't you show me what you've learned?"

            ;    "It's nothing you don't know," she murmurs, "Knots, aiming, sails... you name it; I know it."

          &n bsp;    "Really?" Sirius says, pulling out his pistol. "Well, I'll wager that in that year, you're still not as good a shot as me."

            ;    She laughs and smiles at him.

"Probably not, but I still would have to bet I'm better with a sword."

  "Probably... I haven't had a sword since..."

  There was a moment of silence before she took the sword off and hands it to him.

"This is yours," she says, "Always has been."

After a moment, she leans up and kisses him.

  "My sword..." Sirius mutters as he takes it.

  She smiles and steps back.

"I... don't know what to do right now... so I'm going to my room," she says, her smile turning to a smirk as she walked away.

Sirius follows her after tying his sword back to his belt, where it belongs. When she noticed he was following her, her smile grew mischievous and she slipped into her room. Sirius enters her room with her.

"And if I may ask, what exactly can you do in your room that couldn't be done outside?" he asks.

  She blinked and raised an eyebrow before tackling him and giving him a hard kiss, her arms around his neck. Sirius was shocked, but kisses her back just as hard.

  "There is your answer."

  Sirius smiles at he and holds her close to him.

"Haven't been back for a whole day and that's what you wanna do?" he jokes.

She blushed lightly and cast her eyes to the side, showing exactly how innocent she still was. Sirius takes her chin in his hand and turns her face to his.

"You know that we don't have to," he says.

  "I know... it's just... even after this whole year... and all the guys who have offered... I'm still a virgin..."

  "Is that really something to be ashamed of?"

  "No, it's not... but I didn't... I'm confused because I never thought about anyone like this..."

  "I know... All the women I've been with meant nothing to me... Only you have ever made me feel like this."

  She smiled and hugged him tightly.

"Even when I piss you off?"

  Sirius smiles and hugs her back.

"Yes, even when you piss me off," he says.

  Arianna laughed before leaning up and kissing him. He sighs and lifts her up so her head was level with his as he kissed her. When they pulled away, she was panting and her cheeks were flushed. Sirius had his forehead against hers as he smiles at her.

"Too much?" he asks.

"No... not enough," she teases.

Sirius smiles again and kisses her hard. Arianna allows her eyes to flutter closed as she kisses him back, her hands fisting his shirt as she tries to get closer to him. Sirius rubs her waist and kisses her neck. As he does this, she tilts her head to the side to allow him more room, a small sigh escaping her. He tugs at her shirt and nibbles her neck a bit. Arianna didn't waste any time ditching the shirt she had on and she tugged on his in return. Sirius lifts his shirt over his head and tosses it to the side along with his sword and pistol. She slides her hands over his now bare chest, her fingers gently tracing the year old burn scars as she moves her head down and nips at his neck and jaw, slowly backing up to the bed. Sirius lays her down on the bed when they were close enough and kisses her again. She kisses him back and moves back so they were both comfortable. Sirius sighs as he puts his full weight on her, kissing down her neck and to just above her breasts. She rests her hands on his head and lets out a soft moan. He moves down a bit and softly bites her nipple. A small gasp escapes her and she grips onto his hair. Sirius moves up again to her neck and his hands move down to the rim of her pants. She brings her hips up slightly so he could remove them easily. He slides them down and pushes against her. She moans softly and pushes her hips towards his before yanking on his pants, wanting them off. Sirius pushes his own pants down and pushes against her again. Arianna pulls Sirius's head down and kisses him as she kicks her pants the rest of the way off, along with his. Sirius groans into the kiss and pushes against her again. She lets out a small, pleading whimper, her nails digging into his back as she arched into him. He groans when her nails trail down his back and he moves a bit, pushing himself inside of her. Arianna buries her face in his neck, biting her bottom lip as a small amount of pain races through her, causing her to let out a small, pain-filled moan. Sirius gently pushes against her, sighing. Eventually, the pain went away and she wrapped her legs around his waist, urging him to move. Sirius does just that, moving a bit faster. She moans and moves with him, loving the friction between their bodies.

Sirius suddenly rolls over and pulls her on top of him, still moving. She was slightly shocked, but straddled him and rested her hands on his chest as she moved over him. Sirius lays his head back and sighs in pleasure as his hands wander her body. She slowly quickens her pace over him, leaning down and kissing him as she did so, her hair creating a veil over them. Sirius speeds up his pace as well and moves his hands to her behind, helping her move faster. She sits back up and lets her head fall back, a moan escaping her. Sirius calls out her name as his release hits him hard. Arianna arches over him as her release hits her as well, his name falling from her lips before she slumps over him, breathing heavily. Sirius wraps his arms around her and breaths heavily as well.

"Wow," she murmurs, "I've never... I never knew how good this could feel."

Sirius manages a chuckle.

"It seems better when the person I'm with I love," he says.

She blushes, but nuzzles his neck and smiles.

"Good, cause I love you."

"So then, how was your first time?"

"Amazing."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. That mean that tonight will be pretty fun right?"

She blushed and smiled at him.

"Yeah, I guess it will."

Sirius chuckles a bit and kisses her one more time. She snuggles up to him, resting her head on his chest. Sirius wraps an arm around her and looks down at his old burn marks with a sigh. She was gently tracing one of them with a finger as she relaxed against him. After a moment, a knock sounded on her door.

"What?!" she called, "And don't you dare open that door!"
