Chapter Three

"Little lamb wake up. The boat leaves in three hours, if you don't want to miss it then get up." Slowly I open my eyes to Jack shaking me gently.

"Mmm….what time is it?" I ask my voice riddled with sleep.

"It's nine o'clock, we have to leave in two hours."

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner!?" I shout, springing out of bed.

"Because you're cute when you sleep just like a defenseless lamb." He says with a smile.

I roll my honey colored eyes at his comment he can never be serious can he.

"I gotta shower, get dressed, do my hair, make sure all my things are packed and together, tidy up my room some more, I still need to eat, and we still have to include the time it's gone take to get to the docks and find Rogue. UGGHHH!!!" I grab my clothes out of my closet and scramble to the bathroom.

"I don't have enough time to do all that. Do you know how long it takes for a woman to get ready, not that I take long but still where's the consideration." I tell him.

"You're not a woman that's why you don't take long but I can take your belongings to the cab. Also your room is clean enough and I don't think you'll starve if you skip a meal." My brother teases.

"Jack…how did you get in my room?" I question finally realizing he's been in here since I awoke.

"The window." He says nonchalantly.

"Jack this is the fifth floor!"

"Yea, so?" He questioned in a snarky tone.

"Nothing, never mind." I don't know how he does it but he always amazes me.

About twenty minutes pass before I hear Jack call out to me "hey?"

"Yea?"

"Where are we gonna go first?"

"Well since we're taking Rogue's ship I guess wherever he decides to take us." I didn't really think about where I wanted to go. I was so focused on leaving I hadn't considered much else.

"Hmm…I guess so." Jack mumbles.

A couple minutes go by before I hear jacks voice again.

"What happened to you don't take long? Remember you have stuff to do and we're short on time." His irritation slowly becoming apparent.

"Just about…" I finish tying up my hair and exit the bathroom wearing a red knee length cheongsam with two deep slits on the sides with our house symbol sewn onto the chest and black spandex.

"Bout damn time." He spouts rolling his eyes.

"Are you ready?" I question giving him a once over. He has on black baggy pants that are tight around the angles and a black t-shirt with red trim.
