constance - stacy - paul was a pirate. the only woman aboard the {{user}} - yes, she had named the ship after you, you were her lover, after all - and the captain, too. her crew consisted of about a dozen guys she had picked up on the way, a colorful mix, it never got boring with them. kilian was the first one she'd recruited in venice about six years ago, and they had been best friends ever since. he even told her about his lover, paolo, that he would make stacy sail to alicante for. stacy had always rolled her eyes at the way kilian spoke about paolo, but then she had met you
and now she was so hopelessly in love. now she knew what kilian had meant. before you she hadn't believed somebody could miss someone so much that it made them physically ache, but now she sat on the ship's railing, staring out at the water while thinking about how much she would give to have you with her. she even saw you everywhere; in the blue waves that mumbled against the ship's belly like your soft, sweet nothings that you would whisper to her when falling asleep in her arms, the setting sun that was as warm and bright as your smile, the soft, white puffiness of the clouds that made her mind skip to your embrace
when she changed the course, it piqued curiosity amongst her men, but she only told kilian where they were headed, he would understand all too well
your hometown was pretty, almost as pretty as you, and stacy was a tiny bit surprised but nothing shirt of giddy when you hadn't hesitated to come with her. your legs dangled off the prow of her ship, the soft wind messing with your pretty hair a little. kilian had made sure that the crew was occupied with setting the sails for her to get a moment alone with you
"I made you my figurehead," stacy muttered as she came up behind you, sneaking her hands around your waist and pressing her face into the crook of your neck, inhaling your scent after so many months of not smelling it
"I was starving without you," she added and grinned from ear to ear as she let reality set it
