Jonathan had an interesting evening as he made his way back to his quarters. His where not too far away from Zoi’s to begin with, his cheeks still red as he thought about the night. It was strange, the talks he and Mel had always left this open to an idea, a possibility. It had never become reality even if they had been opening up to it. The truth was he somehow felt completely enamored with Zoi, yet still madly in love with Mel. It was an intoxicating feeling, the desire to share his adventure with Mel yet give her all the love he had for her at the same time. In many ways his love felt stronger now than ever as he came to the door.

This time at night the kids should be going to bed, he knew Mel would appreciate some time to focus on herself. Being locked up with two small children even when they are your own could be a burden in and of itself. Entering their quarters he looked around, curious where she might be. “Red?” he said softly, feeling her in his mind as she graced his. Closing his eyes he felt an immense level of love from that.

Buried under a blanket, was a prone figure with their face towards the back and an arm draped over their hip, their grip on a PADD having slipped after they fell asleep. Hmmm? She murmured to him through their bond. “Couch. Kids were wild tonight but have stayed asleep. I made it through another 50 pages of my novel,” she said aloud, rolling over to greet him.

“How was it?” she asked curiously.

OOC: There was a slight change of heart here, rewording somethings. Thoughts on how I felt Jonathan would have seen things.

IC: Pulling up next to her he grabbed the blanket they had at the edge of the couch. Wrapping up with her tightly he let her rest her head on his chest as he thought on her question. Good, I did make a fool of myself. I admit as much as we have talked about this part of me couldn’t help but think of you a lot. Is it weird that despite having a great time all I wanted when I came home was to come here and let you know how amazing you are? he said, feeling a weird surge of emotions.

The surprise was evident on her face, even as a smile made its presence known. Really? she said teasingly. I don’t know, that might be weird depending on the circumstances. But I do like that you like coming home to me. Her tone softened.

He liked Zoi, getting a chance to try this new lifestyle he and Mel talked about was something he was intrigued by. At the same time his devotion to Mel was something that could never be shaking, and he had no desire to make her feel less in anything. For the most part Jonathan felt overwhelmed at his thoughts and his choices before him. Until he looked down and saw her next to him as she rested in his arms. A feeling washed over him he hadn’t felt in such a long time, contentment.

She wants to talk to you. You can, see how things go. Part of me on the way here though, I couldn’t help but keep thinking of you. Time will tell I guess, I think I am content here though too. It’s not that she doesn’t appeal, or that she isn’t nice. Maybe something we put a pin in for awhile until you and I know where life is taking us too. We have young children, and a chance to discover ourselves a bit too. I’m not saying things may not change and I think at the very least I made a friend who one day can be more… but I also have a wife who I feel has been neglected. he said as he sat there, the walk was long but the feeling had been true. He had been out while he left her to the kids. Going down this path now when they have had so little time to bond felt like a cop out to him, one he couldn’t jeopardize his marriage to her for something else down the line.

Her dark eyes examined the features of his handsome face. Lately she had been feeling nostalgic for some of their early days together. Not the events themselves, since Gods knew she never wanted to relive any of that. But she fully knew how awkward he could be. They had had so many of those moments after they first met, where events were swirling around them and their attraction to each other had been evident, but she had tried hard to keep her boundaries. There had been Derrin to consider, after all. But through it all, through that first dinner where he kissed her and she had fled, right through to Derrin leaving and her and Jon deciding to give into their feelings and finally be together, they had had an uphill battle. And that wasn’t even considering how after they got married, that crazy Andorian Ariana who was obsessed with Jonathan had tried to kill her.

Reaching up, Melaia rested a hand on the side of his face. I love you, and you know full well I don’t object to you making connections where you need to. It would be hypocritical of me. But if you’re not ready for more than friendship, then that’s okay. But don’t put a limit on that friendship and what it means to you because you’re worried about me. Sure, I want us to be good too, but I think there’s room for growth as individuals and well as a couple, don’t you? And she meant it truly. He’d know that. That being said, being so cozy in his arms made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside and she gently stroked the line of his jaw with her thumb.

Bump

Oh I am aware, and I have no intention to just stop getting to know her. I became dear friends with Alison over, and maybe that same level of friendship I find there I can find in Zoi as well. In the end, my life feels more complete now than it has in a long time. Maybe it shouldn’t, so much chaos but you are there with me through the chaos… you have no idea how much that means to me Red. he said as he kissed softly the top of her forehead.
