"What the-- What the fuck, is that the prince and the captain? Holding hands?!"

The day has already started rough for the pirate crew as they have spotted a close by ship that looked weirdly like a familiar other pirate ship under a rough greedy captain and that created anxiety under them.

So it was even more shocking to see their ever so cold captain leaving the cabin holding hands with the beautiful prince. And he didn´t look uncomfortable at all, more like he was enjoying the touch, shyly moving close to the tall pirate and not minding him at all. 

Jeongguk on the other side wasn´t pushing Taehyung away like he would with others, actually pulling the prince protectively closer and glaring at his crew. "Do your work and stop looking like desperate fucks", he huffed out before dragging the prince with him who replied to that action with a little yelp but stayed surprisingly close.

"Yo, Jeon, always knew you were a big softie holding hands with Cutie over here!", one pirate yelled out to his captain who replied with a glare before the man was kicked playfully by his friends. Jeongguk made his way towards Wooyoung and Hoseok sitting in the rigging. The first Mate was playing with a knife once again, glaring down at his captain.

There was a dark feeling in the pit of his stomach when he saw the close proximity of the little prince and his captain, knowing he shouldn´t feel this way but he still did. No matter how mean Jeongguk could be, he had a golden heart and that was always the reason why he would win anything he wanted.

Including a certain doe eyed prince.

"Stay with them, I have to talk to someone", Jeongguk said briefly towards Taehyung, letting go of his hand but not leaving without a sweet short touch lingering over Taehyung´s waist that somehow managed to ease his tension. It was tempting to stare after the leaving captain but Taehyung stopped himself from doing so. 

He instead focused on the ogling men sitting around and who were also eyeing him like a fresh piece of meat thrown inside a lion cage. Wooyoung of course had to be the one to say something, a scoff on his face. "Do you really think throwing yourself at the captain would get you anywhere?", he said with disgust in his voice.

Taehyung on the other side felt a rush of anger in his veins by these words. Why was it that this man was hating on him so badly, throwing shade at him whenever he could and taking any opportunity to humiliate Taehyung. The little prince might be soft hearted but he wasn't going to allow anyone disrespecting him.

"I could throw you off the railing instead", the little prince hissed out, feeling brave out of the sudden, especially when two men sitting next to Wooyoung, one of them smacking his back. "Cutie got a mouth to speak after all", the other one grinned, eyeing Taehyung up and down.

"I'm surprised too, thought he was mute or simply whining all the time like a damsel in distress", the other chuckled, with Hoseok watching them intently from above. He wanted to see how the beautiful prince was going to react to this, a challenge in their words. 

But Taehyung was having none of it, straightening his shoulders and giving them a stern glare. "You don't see me wearing a dress or not having a tongue in my mouth now do you?", Taehyung asked with raised brows which left the men stunned.

Before all of them broke into loud laughter. "Yo, I like that kid! He got some fire under his ass. 'D like to see that sweet tongue of yours as well", the man with light brown hair stated. Taehyung simply threw a lazy smile into his direction, noticing Hoseok sitting in the rigging from above, intent look on his face while he was eyeing Taehyung and playing with a knife.

"You'd burn yourself", the prince said and the men erupted into laughter again. "C'mere pretty boy, you got yourself a seat", the man man next to a grumbling Wooyoung said and Taehyung gracefully walked over to sit on the edge of the seat.

Wooyoung stared at him, hooded eyes piercing through his soul but this time, Taehyung wasn't going to look away at all. He was returning the stare, lifting one brow challenging which of course was noticed and the brown haired man snorted. 

"You might be more interesting than we thought you would be", he commented on the stare off. Wooyoung was the first one to look away but glanced at Taehyung another time. "You're brave. Didn't take you for a brave guy... maybe you can survive among us, if you dare pretty boy", he grunted, focusing back on the little chess game he was playing with the guy next to him.

"I'm San by the way, don't mind Grumpy over here, he doesn't like anyone besides himself but he is the sweetest", the man with the light brown hair smiled widely at Taehyung who bowed his head as a greeting. "I'm Taehyung."

"Yunho", the other man briefly said, nodding into Taehyung's direction who looked out of place in between these rough men, too soft and pretty but somehow managed to fit right in. It was a weird sight and it left Hoseok on the edge.

He was silently watching how Taehyung was handling the situation, eyes never leaving his pretty frame and waiting for the men to attack their prey but it never happened. They instead started word battles with Taehyung leaving every one as winner.

It seemed to impress the pirates, San ruffling Taehyung's hair and Wooyoung looking more calm, his shoulders more relaxed. Hoseok's eyes narrowed by this, a weird tug in his chest, his grip around his knife tightening.

Now this was a surprising change.
