Okay. Okay… I can do this!

You shake both your hands vigorously on either side of you, trying to easy your nerves while you psych yourself up. You have every reason to be nervous. He’s perfect. Well...other’s might not agree. He’s hot headed, violent, and foul-mouthed...you know that. You actually like those parts of him too, even if they result in him getting in his own way sometimes. But he’s also your Captain.

Fuck it!

Sucking in your breath, you step out of your cabin. For just leaving a tropical climate the salty air stings your cheeks as you sail into a cold front. Like a cold shower it sobers you.

At this point your feelings are just getting in the way. You don’t want to be a hindrance to your crew do you? It would probably be a good thing to just get it over with, and if he turns you down then you can just put it behind you. At least you’ll have an answer.

Though it’s not on the deck you find him, it’s in the Kitchen. Discussing plans with the first mate as he prepares tonight’s dinner. They continue talking as you enter, heads quickly turned as you make a loud, clumsy exclamation, “KID!”

Okay...maybe you didn’t need to yell it but hell—your nerves were shooting through the roof.

“Aye?”

“I want a date!”

And great. You can’t even get out a proper proposal. Could you have at least asked a proper question? All you did was yell at him!

To your surprise, he seems unfazed. Rising from his chair and making his way to the back store room. Your head tilts in confusion, but you can’t seem to force out any more words. Instead just intrigued by his reaction. You walk over, standing in the door frame as he rummages around before turning back to you.

Without a word, he stretches out his hand. Returning his gesture with an open palm, you find something placed in your hands.

It’s a...date.

Killer walks over and slaps both of you upside the head.
