She was watching him sleep. Watching his chest rise and fall with every deep, even breath.

The flickering candlelight danced over the kohl outlining his closed eyes, his high cheekbones and braided goatee.

He was lying on his back, a hand on his stomach, rings glinting as light passed over them, the other hand resting on his thigh.

He was fully dressed, only missing his boots and weapons.

They were sitting in easy reach by the bed.
She couldn't believe he'd removed them on this ship of all places.

She heard her name being called and left, pausing for one last look at his sleeping form.

Once he was sure he was alone, he opened his eyes and smiled, reaching for a bottle of rum and uncorking it.

He hadn't slept at all in the last two hours.
