Being Marooned [Thursday, May 27]

"Good some time of the day to you all, me hearties!" Jack crowed at his students when they arrived on the beach. (What, like you expected him to know the time? He judged by the sun. If it was up, he figured he was close enough.) He glanced into the sky. "As you can tell, today is going to be a bit of a scorcher, and a good pirate should know how to find shade." He smiled. "Aye, sitting under a tree might work for the short term, but if you are going to be on the island for the rest of your natural--or unnatural, I'm not going to be judging--lives, you might want to invest in something a mite bit more permanent."

He proudly pointed to a huge stack of sticks and palm branches. Um. Don't ask where he acquired them from. He knew a guy. "Today we make shelter!" he announced. "Well, you do. I'm going to take a nap."

Kate snorted. "You say that like I'm going to be spending much more of my time in the fucking Midwest." She shook her head, still squinting at him. Sunglasses. Next week she'd bring them. "But yeah. No getting marooned in Kansas."

"You're not going back after graduating?" he asked, arching a brow.

"Well, I haven't really thought that far ahead yet," she admitted. "But I can't really see good old Overland Park being my first choice, no."
