★ Pirates of the Carribean: Tunnel of Dreams Chapter 2: Henry and Carina °`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°` "Quick, Henry, we need to hide!" said the voice of Carina Barbossa as she leapt from the bench in front of the windowsill onto her bed, with Henry Turner quickly following after her after hastily covering the stained-glass window with the curtains, jumping into one of the benches closest to her bed. "I don't think they saw us..." he muttered, daring a glance outside. No- his parents had definitely not noticed anything strange, it was too dark out to notice anything. Henry sighed quietly, as the wind from the opened window whipped at his face. "Well, I should hope not. All I called you here for was to look at the Trident of Poseidon's constellation, and all of a sudden you want to spy on your family and see what they're up to." Carina said reprovingly, as Henry turned to her, aghast. "We were not spying! All we were doing was observing them furtively!" he said, indignant at this incorrect statement. Carina allowed herself a slight smirk. "Henry, that's the definition of spying." she said, knowing that she'd won yet another small argument between them. Henry opened his mouth to say something, then closed it again, defeated. He turned away, staring back at the window where he was observing his parents. "I thought they might be planning to go away..." he said quietly, his voice barely detectable over the wind. "My father just came back... and after all this time," he let out a small chuckle, "I just want to be a family." he finished, still not looking at her. Carina's eyes softened, knowing his desire on a personal level. "Well, I'm sure they're not planning anything, and if they are, all we'll have to do is follow them wherever they go." she said matter-of-factly. Henry grinned, knowing that Carina was really trying to make him feel better, and that meant the world to him. "Thank you, Miss Barbossa. I'll be leaving now, I think we'd both do best with some sleep. Good night." he said, quietly leaving Carina's room to his own so that his parents wouldn't hear the movement. "Good night." Carina said, her words just catching him as the door closed. °`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°`°` ⚔️ Notes: ● My writing might not be the best in this chapter, but I tried ok ;0; ● There's still a bit of a lull, but the second half of the next chapter should pick things up a bit :3 ● Music is One Last Sh0t
