Captain Hook X Female! Reader
~Chapter Two: In the Captainâs Quarters~
âYou had better say something to him, lass.â One of the crew members, Mr. Shane, said as he held his sword up to your throat while the moon began to rise into the night sky.
You stared at him unamused as he kept talking. âWe be rotting away on this ship, stuck on this miserable island! We want to put to sea, loot ships, drink at bars, slit throats.â
âAnd you think Iâd be able to convince him to put to sea?â
âYou do keep his bed warm.â Mr. Shane smirked at you lewdly. âWhy, Iâm sure you could get him to say yes to anything with that mouth of yours.â
Your face turned red and you rolled your eyes, turning your head to the side. âThe captain is quite stubborn. Heâs made it very clear weâre not leaving until Pan is dead.â
Annoyed by your answer, Mr. Shane grit his teeth and pressed the sword against your throat with more pressure. âYou will talk to him, wench.â
You pushed his sword away. âI will not. You donât frighten me. You wonât do anything dangerous because you know Hook will-â
âAhoy! Ahoy!â You stopped talking when you heard Mr. Smeeâs voice in the water below.
Mr. Shane backed away as you grabbed a lantern and peered over the railing. âSmee?!â
âDown here!â Smee yelled.
You looked down at the water and saw the tender Hook and Smee had taken to head to shore, Smee, and Hook. Except Hookâs clothes were soaked and torn to shreds, his wet hair was sticking to his face and his neck, and he was shivering.
You gasped and immediately set the lantern aside to toss the ropes Smee had used to lower the tender into the water earlier that afternoon.
Once Smee had attached the ropes to the tender, you began pulling on the ropes. âThe Captainâs down there, you morons!â You yelled at the rest of crew. âHelp me lift him up!â
The crew groaned, but since they were still loyal enough to Captain Hook to stay on his ship, they decided to help you pull the tender up on board.
Once the tender was safely docked back on board, the rest of crew backed off as you and Smee walked Hook inside his quarters.
âD-Donât worry, Capân! Iâll get you some hot water and a cloth for your head!â Smee said before rushing out of the room.
You sat Hook down in his throne and gently peeled off his wet shreds of clothing. âYou poor dear, what happened?â
âDo not pity me, woman.â He hissed. But his anger was not directed at you, you knew that. âI was attacked by that wretched crocodile, all because of Peter Pan.â
âI can see that.â You said as gave him a towel to dry off and cover up his cold naked body.
âI hate that boy. More than I hate that reptile. More than I hate cephalopods. More than Iâve ever hated anything!â Hook growled before slamming his hook into the wood of his throne, the sound making him wince because of his headache.
âI know, James. One day, one day that boy will get what he deserves.â You said as you set a fresh set of clothes on the desk in front of him.
âThank you, me dearâŚâ Hook sighed as he set his hand on his forehead, cooperating as you dressed him.
You finished tying Hookâs belt around his waist as Smee walked back in with a warm wet cloth, a large bucket, and a kettle.
âHere, Capân.â Smee said as he handed you the cloth while he poured the water from the kettle into the bucket. You gently set the cloth on Hookâs forehead as Smee lifted his legs and set them into the water.
Hook let out a small sigh, content.
âDonât worry Capân. Iâll make sure no one disturbs ya until ya feel like a pile of gold!â Smee walked out of the room and closed the door.
You took the wet towel off Hookâs shoulders and replaced it with the blanket from his bed. âThis feels familiar, doesnât it?â
âDoes it?â Hook asked with his eyes closed as you put the blanket around his shoulders.
âAye.â You smiled and pulled up a chair to sit beside him. âReminds me of the night we met.â
Hook started to smile. âI suppose it is familiar.â
You smiled at him as he opened his eyes to look at you. âAre you getting sappy with me, poppet?â
âNo.â You smiled, knowing you most definitely were.
Hook leaned back and adjusted the cloth with a small laugh.
He noticed you staring at him and smirked. âWhat is it?â
âThat doesnât mean I donât like hearing it.â
You smiled and leaned your head into your hands. âI just like looking at the most handsome buccaneer in all of the seven seas.â
Hook grabbed at you with a chuckle and hoisted you onto his lap, carefully angling his hook so it wouldnât accidentally hurt you.
âAnd you, me dear, are me greatest treasure.â
You gently moved his black curls out of his face with a smile. âAfter we catch Peter, how would you like a new rug for our quarters? One made of say, crocodile skin?â
Hook smiled mischievously. âI would reward you most intimately for such a gift.â He chuckled, leaning into your face. But just as he was about to kiss you, he turned away and let out a loud sneeze.
âOhâŚmy headâŚâ He groaned as you gently pressed the cloth back into place.
Before either of you could say anything more, someone had started loudly banging on the door. With a quiet groan, you got off Hookâs lap and marched towards the door as Hook winced with each bang.
You opened the door as Smee was swinging a hammer down, but instead of hitting the door, he hit your hand instead.
You let out a yell and yanked your hand back, rubbing it furiously. âSmee!â
âCareful, Smee!â Hook yelled.
âTerribly sorry! Terribly sorry!â Smee stammered as he set the hammer down and picked up a kettle. âAre you alright, Miss (Y/n)?â
âOoohâŚIâm alright. Thank you for your apology.â You said, walking over to Hookâs throne as you tried to shake the pain out of your hand.
Smee started talking as he took the cloth off Hookâs forehead and checked the temperature of the water, but neither you nor Hook were listening as Hook lifted your hand with his hook. âNothingâs broken, is it?â
âI donât believe so.â
Hook nodded and made sure none of the rest of the crew was watching before he lifted your hand to his lips and pressed a gentle kiss on the area Smee hammered on.
âThank you.â You whispered as Hook pulled away and leaned back into his chair.
â-that Pan has banished Tinkerbell-â Smee said as he poured the water into the bucket but was quickly cut off when Hook yanked his feet out of the water. âWOAH! TOO HOT!â
You and Smee both jumped back as Hook stood up and raised his hook to Smee. âWhy you doddering imbecile-!âŚdid you say Pan has banished Tinkerbell?â
âAye aye, Capân!â Smee said, backing up. âThat he has.â
âBut why?â You asked as Hook stood up straight and paced around the room.
âOn account of Wendy! Tink tried to do her in, she did! Tinkâs terribly jealous.â
âWell wellâŚâ Hook said as he paused his pacing and rubbed his hook with a small smile.
âWhoâs Wendy? A new child Peter brought onto the island?â
Smee nodded. âThis is exactly why I think we should leave, this ainât no place for a respectable pirate.â He said, putting his hands on his hips.
âTHATâS IT, SMEE! THATâS IT!â Hook exclaimed excitedly as he slapped Smee on the back, accidentally knocking him down.
âI-Iâm glad you agrees, Capân!â Smee laughed.
âQuickly, poppet! Me coat, me best dress coat!â Hook said as he shrugged the blanket off.
âW-What? Weâre leaving? Just like that?â You asked as you grabbed his finest dress coat from his closet and helped it onto his shoulders while Smee set his shoes by the door.
âOf course not, me dear!â Hook laughed. âOh yes, a jealous female can be tricked into anything.â
He buttoned up his coat as he stood in front of the mirror and flipped his hair over his shoulder. âMy case of hooks!â He ordered at Mr. Smee.
âI donât understand, whatâs your plan?â You asked as he unscrewed his hook from the prosthetic metal cover.
âYour case of hooks, sir! Your Sunday set, sir!â Smee said, opening the case to Hook as he tossed his hook to some random corner of the room.
âYou see, me dear.â Hook explained while tightening a golden hook into the small hole of the cover. âIf we convince the pixie were eager to help her, the wench may chart our course to a âcertain hiding placeâ.â
You made an âohhâ sound as he winked at you, knowing you understood.
Smee, who wasnât really listening, started to leave the room. âThe best hiding place is the Spanish Mine sir! Iâll set our course for-â
âAnd where do you think you are going?â Hook asked as he reached out and used his hook to prevent Smee from leaving.
âT-To tell the boys we set sail for the tide?â
Hook wagged his finger at Smee and smiled as you moved up beside him. âYou will go ashore, pick up Tinkerbell, and bring her to me.â
He hroughly removed his hook from Smeeâs shirt. âUNDERSTAND?!â He yelled.
âAye aye, sir!â Smee said, rushing out of the room and heading to one of the tenders.
Hook closed the door after him and turned to you. âNow, before Smee returns, Iâd like to finish where we had left off.â
You smiled and set your hands on his chest as his hook pressed into your back while his normal hand cupped your face. âI would enjoy that very much.â
