When they broke the kiss, D’vash smiled and replied, “Yeeeeah, there’s no mistaking this is the real you. Tender, gentle . . . sift, yet passionate. When I look into your eyes, I can see that. You look into the eyes of the duplicates and that sense isn’t there. It’s just. . . . lust, with no real feelings behind it. I prefer this more.”

Odinson (XO)

She smiled back. ” I do, too.” She moved towards the table and kitchenette area. “I didn’t make anything ahead of time. Wasn’t sure what you’d feel up to tonight.” She laughed but it wasn’t her usual cause laugh. “Was afraid I’d pick something you’ve been eating three night in a row, already.”

“You know, we should try one of those holodeck vacation programs. I know I said I didn’t like them, but no idea when we’ll get leave time again. And they can’t be all that bad or they wouldn’t be so popular… Right?” She was lousy at small talk but suddenly couldn’t think of a single thing to say.

Pretha

“An XO’s job is never done, and with a new captain on board, I doubt I’ll get any time for a leave until Hamlicar is settled in. So that holodeck idea might be our best option for some alone time for awhile.” He sidled up behind Pretha, wrapping his arms around her waist and applying tender kisses to her neck. “You have something in mind?”

Odinson (XO)

She covered his arms with her own and leaned back into his embrace. “Actually, no,” she laughed softly. “I have no idea. But I’m sure there’s some program with an amazing view. Or perhaps some place we can’t actually go without fear of dieing that’s stunning and breathtaking and perfectly safe in a program. Like some gas giant orbiting an asteroid field or something.”

She turned her head to half glance at him and kissed his cheek. “Or we can just conjure up another faire. You managed to be so charming that you made me forget I was a security officer. Did you know that?”

Pretha

“I guess I take after my father in that respect. Mother said he could’ve charmed the winter pants off a Laplander if he had ever been to Earth,” D’vash replied while returning her kiss.

“”Laplanders. Hmmmm? That gives me an idea. Have you ever experience a Polar Night? It’s an incredible sight to see.”

Odinson (XO)

Pretha laughed. “Then I feel for your mother. Because I’m guessing I’ll have to be more of a security officer, rather than less of one, around you just to chase off the other women.”

When he mentioned the Polar Nights, she shook her head and laughed. “You’re trying to be romantic, and you’re recommending we freeze to death? Forgive me, but the connection is completely lost on me.” She turned in his arms and slid her hands around his waist. “So how is shivering supposed to be romantic?” Her eyebrows rose in curiosity and her lip curled up in a challenging grin.

Pretha

“The only shivering you’ll be doing is from me, exploring every inch of you with kisses,” he replied, pulling her in tight. “No shivering from the cold, though we will be a bit north of the Arctic Circle. But, we’ll be in a cabin, with a roaring fire, bear skin rugs, some wine. The bed facing out through a large picture window that takes up the whole north wall, where can experience the Polar Night. It’s a time of the year where everything above the circle is in a cinstant state of Twilight. It’s like the sun is setting continuously for about 6 months. It’s an incredible sight to see. And I want you to see it with me.”

Odinson (XO)

Pretha smiled. He had a way of making the starkest, most unhospitable setting seem romantic. It was no surprise to her she nodded her head. “Ok… I’d like that.” She shook her had and laughed. “Only you can make being buried in freezing snow sound romantic.” She raised her hand to caress his cheek. “How is it I landed you when every other woman on this ship has probably been chasing you for years before I even got here?” It was more musing out loud than anything she actually expected an answer to.

D’vash smiled back. “That’s simple. I was just waiting for you to show up.”

“We should probably eat. And discuss when you want to do this grandeous vacation of yours.” She smiled and tried to step from his arms, though there wasn’t a great deal of effort that would be needed if he wasn’t ready to let go.

Pretha

“I am kinda hungry. . . .but it’s for something that doesn’t have much nutritional value.” His gaze went to the bedroom, then back to Pretha.

Odinson (XO)

Pretha laughed. The tension in her body began to seep out of her. “I guess it’s a good thing I decided a state fair was something I had to see for myself.” She turned and looked at him, a hand resting on his chest. I’ll have to thank whoever’s decided to run that holo program that day.” She kissed the tip of his nose then pulled away from him.

“Let’s get something to eat, then you’ll get your dessert,” she teased with a wink and headed for the replicator. Once her back was to him, she bit her lip a moment and paused, her hands on the counter as if to steady herself. Then she blinked and the moment was passed. She smiled and called back to him. “Want macaroni casserole or something else?” The moment of unease didn’t go unnoticed by her. She just hoped, D’Vash hadn’t seen it. He already worked too much about her.

Pretha

D’vash sighed, ” I suppose you’re going to need the energy.”

He plopped into a seat at the small table. “The macaroni casserole sounds good, but only if I can get the little, cut up hot dogs in there, too.”
