I figured the promise of breakfast and coffee would do that.

[At least then it would be worth it.]

You're still not cleared for duty. Enjoy the time off, I'm sure something weird'll come along as soon as you're better.

[unas]

I'm thinking something weird will come along before I'm cleared.

( and whilst she wasn't going to tell m'benga 'i'm good enough to have sex, i'm good enough to go on duty' she doubted it would be any longer than a week... two at the utter most. if he tried any longer pike would hear it from the bridge )

You know, we'll probably get to the starbase before I'm back on duty. That's more leave.

( which is why she was planning on working through it and getting caught up on everything she'd missed. and getting ahead )

[failed_astrophysics]

I know, though I'm staying with the ship this time, means we could get some time to ourselves.

[Silver linings Una.]

[unas]

( her eyebrow raises, looking interested )

You could have led with that.

[failed_astrophysics]

I thought it would be a nice surprise.

[And it looks like it was, though not exactly the time that he wanted to tell her.]

[unas]

It is.

( she leans up to kiss him, though the slight pull that she feels means she only manages to kiss his jaw, resting her head back down with a kiss to his shoulder )

Staying with a quiet ship... I could get ideas.

( pulling him away when he's supposed to be 'on duty'? she definitely wouldn't...

maybe once. since they have the time to themselves and no one would notice. he could easily be taking a walk of the ship or checking out another area, not dipping into his quarters )

[failed_astrophysics]

I have a few of my own.

[Which may or may not include the Captain's Chair. Though that one might have to remain a fantasy.]

I figured you'd appreciate the company.

[unas]

( if he told her that fantasy she might forget she'd told him one orgasm only tonight.

and whilst she'd never suggest sex in either of their offices... it's definitely a fantasy of hers )

I do. And I'm glad you thought of it because I'm not used to it yet. ( he might have spent most of his off duty hours in her quarters but their actual relationship, spending time together more intimately no matter what they did was still new to her. dinner and conversation was just their routine even if it had been more frequent lately )

Though whilst I'm itching to get back on duty I have a feeling you're going to make returning to it difficult.

[failed_astrophysics]

I figured as much.

[One, or both of their offices might work though. It'll be quiet, largely free of crew, might be doable.]

I promise, I'll keep my hands to myself in all professional settings.

[There's amusement in his voice, but he'd never do anything to jeopardize her career.]

[unas]

Somehow I figure we'll be fine.

( they'd managed it so far, keeping their hands off each other until that shore leave and they'd managed it since. they only touched in the privacy of their rooms )

Though... I wouldn't mind hearing about what you'd never do.

[failed_astrophysics]

[That gets a chuckle, but she asked so he's going to list all the places he's thought about.]

My office, your office, turbolift, captain's chair....

[unas]

( her head lifts up with that eyebrow raise again, surprised and intrigued.

and really wishing the ship had no crew because riding him in his chair would be incredible )

You've done a lot of thinking.

[failed_astrophysics]

It was a long five weeks between shore leave and our date.

[A very long five weeks and he does notice that eyebrow raise, maybe they weren't all out of the question.]

[unas]

Was it?

( she's teasing now, though she'd certainly tried not to think about shore leave during that time.

though that hadn't stopped the years before that, the stray thoughts she'd had when something in his voice had been a little too hot, or she'd been in a particular mood and happened to run into him in a turbolift. and this is ignoring any dreams since they are out of her control. but all scenarios she wouldn't be opposed to happening anyway.

she drags a nail lightly down his chest )

Was your cock in hand thinking about this or were you on the bridge?

[failed_astrophysics]

[The years before shore leave were definitely a fight for him too. He'd had a number of fantasies about her over the years, and those old blue Discovery-Style Uniforms did nothing but fuel the fire.]

It depended on the day.

[unas]

( she laughs slightly. it's nice knowing that he thought about her, but the risk of those thoughts on the bridge? )

You might have made it into one or two of my thoughts. ( and since a turbolift had come up in both of their ideas... the next time they were stuck in one they'd have to be very careful to keep their hands to themselves )

Though your chair is new. Am I on top or are we between the other's legs?

( she never thought that she'd be having this conversation with him. her fantasies had always been a wish but hearing his... they were both very much a turn on and she wondered if there was any they could get away with. especially on leave )

[failed_astrophysics]

Just one or two? I feel like I should be offended. [He's teasing.]

[Honestly, he never thought that he'd be talking about any of this either, but now that the door's open he's taking the opportunity.]

Both would be fun, but you on top would be easier to recover from if someone walks in.

[unas]

Well, if we ever have to give a new shuttle a maiden voyage...

( she teases, though what a way to christen it. and a test flight for a shuttle could be easier to get away with )

My desk after a long day... well, pulling a double shift, you telling me I need to stop working and relax. ( he certainly gets her to relax! and it makes it easier to get her back to her quarters after )

[failed_astrophysics]

[He makes a mental note of that. A shuttle would be fun.]

The next time you have a double, I'll be sure to stop by.

[unas]

( she curses slightly how much that sounds like a promise, how much it arouses her and she wonders knowing how he is how much better it would actually be compared to her fantasy )

We can't.

( though her words lack the usual conviction, a little too much want a curiosity at that idea currently to back it up )

[failed_astrophysics]

Why not? The doors lock.

[And okay it isn't professional behavior at all, but it'd be no different than what they're doing now. They might have to clean the desk off first.]

[unas]

Not on duty.

( and she has to snap herself to slightly more clear-headedness, letting the fantasy remain a fantasy )

We said this wouldn't get in the way of our jobs. So not on duty.

( or anywhere they work. bedrooms it is, vacations or shore leave. since they didn't get vacations )

[failed_astrophysics]

[He tightens his arm around her back in something of a hug. The last thing he wants to do is make her uncomfortable with all of this.]

Never on duty. But if you ever change your mind about an off duty office visit, let me know.

[unas]

( she shakes her head slightly, though there's a smile on her, not refusing (even though she probably will) but laughing at his cheek.

her head settles back down, returning to running her fingers over his muscles )

You know, there's a few things we could have done at your ranch. For next time. ( she pauses, letting him think he'll have to ask but elaborating before he does )

A few outdoor places we didn't fully experience. ( she didn't want to fuck him under the stars (or day) whilst the horses were nearby. but if they hiked, camped and spent that time... she wouldn't even mind how open those locations were. his ranch and the trails were too far away for anyone to likely pass. and if they did... no one knew her, the other ranchers weren't starfleet )

The lake we didn't swim in. Next time we're leaving your bed more.

( or doing more together since she had done a lot of solo hiking )

[failed_astrophysics]

Not that I didn't enjoy all the time we spent in bed, but I would like to spend some time with you out of it.

[Sex or no Sex as long as he got to spend he time with Una and without the threat of being caught he'd be happy.]
