Finally, finally, they were released from sickbay. Bethany’s 3 times a day walks had been reduced to one very late or very early while the corridors were empty. She would be going stir crazy if she wasn’t so focused on Aasrel. The new meds made her feel better and she wanted to go do stuff. She had finally accepted the risk of being on duty too much, but she hated being confined. The ship was small and that couldn’t be changed.

When Jonan finally left Bethany let out a heavy sigh and flopped into a chair for just a moment.

Bethany

Aasrel had been released the day after his surgery with strict instructions to take it easy and be careful until his head was fully healed. When Jonan left and Bethany flopped down into a chair, Aasrel moved next to her and smiled down at her. “Come on now, I thought you’d pick something we can both sit on.”

~ Aasrel

Bethany opened one eye and looked at him. A wicked grin crossed her face as she opened both eyes and stood. She grabbed his hand, turned him around, pushed him into the chair and then curled up on his lap. “We both can sit here just fine.”

Bethany

Aasrel grinned and laughed as she pulled him down and then sat on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her. “I see I’ve been proven wrong,” he said, and then he tugged on her, pulling her toward him, and kissed her.

~ Aasrel

Bethany laughed softly right before he kissed her. Then she was lost. Nothing else existed but Aasrel and she wanted it to stay that way for as long as possible.

Bethany

Aasrel would give that to her for as long as he could. But eventually, the kiss had to end. He cuddled into her, resting his head on her and tightening his arms around her. “It’s good to be back in familiar spaces, isn’t it?”

~ Aasrel

“It is.” Bethany rested against his shoulder, her arms wrapped around him. She closed her eyes on a soft sigh. She felt warm, she was chilled all the time. Right then she didn’t. “How are you feeling? How’s the pain?”

Bethany

Aasrel had almost forgotten she couldn’t just feel those answers for herself. He didn’t mind answering though. “I feel okay. It’s getting worse as the pain meds are wearing off. We’ll see how it goes.”

“Jonan said you could have a two-thirds dose in a couple hours if you need it. He left the hypo.” She rubbed his neck and shoulders to ease some of the tightness stress was causing. “Well we can take it easy. It’s not like we have anything we have to do.”

Bethany

“I’m hoping I won’t need it.” Aasrel let out a contented sigh as she rubbed his tight muscles. They felt really tight. “We have all the time in the world to lay around and enjoy each other’s company. Sounds like the best kind of day to me.”

~ Aasrel

Bethany chuckled as she kept massaging. “You know what else would help these tight muscles?” She leaned back and grinned at him. “A hot shower and a decent bed.”
