( thank you for the lovely comments)

It has been 2 days since Dr Devorak kept you as a "hostage" in his office on board the enemy ship.he wasn't aggressive but sometimes snarky, he claimed illness to the other crew members and demanded isolation as to not be disturbed whilst you were in his care, if course, he didn't tell anyone you were there.

You were looking out a small port window about the small crib he called a bed.

Julian holding his chin in his long gloves fingers watching you from his desk. He drops his large boot on the creaking floor

"That's it" he stands up "as my patient I am prescribing you with imidiate exercise!"
His dramatic tone made it sound more playful than serious

You blink up at him "how?"

                       ~°~
Julian grabs your hand and guides you out on to the empty deck

It was evening, the only person on duty was an old seadog at the stirring wheel, leaning against it snoozing

The steady waves and chilled breeze made the atmospheric perfectly peaceful allowing you to finally find some calm.

"I suggest a few walks around the deck" he says, wind gusting his loose blowse open exposing his broad chest. Pushing his hair back reaching more if his aquline nose.

He gracefully links your arm steadying you, walking around the ships open deck.

"Do you smell it? The sea?" He breathes in the salty sir savouring it

"I live for the pirate life but there's never much appreciation for doctors like me" he 'wink' and pulls a now familiar smirk

You walk round a while more beginning to feel easy
When suddenly Julian let's go and waffles over to a chest pulling out a stringed instrument like a violin

"Now my dear stoaway, can you dance? Dancing is the best medicine"
he shrills up his instrument playing a beautiful melody,humming deeper to it.

You tap your feet free of judgement moving to the best

"That's it!"

You dance loosely Infront of the doctor who's now standing on top a stool, you both smile at eachother almost forgetting what brought you both together.

As the melody comes to a calming stop Julian throws out his arms for your applause smiling.

"bravo!" You clap your hands wildly enjoying the doctors free spirit

He steps down from his stool

"Where did you learn to dance? May I ask?" He leans in curiously regarding you

"I'll never tell" you joke

Putting down his instrument, Julian takes your hand and guides you toward the small door towards his office

"Ilya! Is that you I hear!?" He sea dog Manning the wheel awakes looking over the ridge to see the deck

In a quick panick Julian pushes you against the wall just out of sight keeping his body just inches from yours. He calls out in cool tone " don't mind me Kalo, just out for a midnight stroll" he looks down at you, one a to his lips and the other above your shoulder

"Shhh" he whispers to your ears only
