A throaty chuckle ensued and Faye slipped her fingers through his and led him inside. She let go of his hand as they moved down the stairs and she kept her voice hushed. “All the beds have been inoculated now. I of course took care of the Glow-orbs myself, as you requested,” she said with a warm smile tossed back over her shoulder at him.

When they came to the carving, Faye reached out and brushed her fingertips along it. “I cried… no, that’s not the right word,” she told him. “I wept when I saw this. I understood what you meant by it immediately, though I had to explain it to Alex,” she said with a fond smile. “I think it was one of those moment where Alex wanted to scream at me,” she said with a soft laugh. “I was serious when I said you were more emotionally intelligent than I am. It takes me longer to understand the way people express their feelings. And to be able to trust my own. He knew instantly that you loved me by this building. I… took more time to understand,” she said, a sheepish smile on her face.

“Good things come to those who wait.” Dag said and grinned at her. He held her hand and looked at it with her. “Yeah… I must have drawn this out a hundred times. Couldn’t get it right. Then one day I was doodling in my office while someone went on and one about biometric locks on their doors because they didn’t trust the ship’s computer or something… and I looked down and there it was. Guess I just needed to relax.”

She smiled and as it had become a smile just for him. Of course Faye couldn’t see her own expression, but she could feel that warmth in her body that seeing him smile induced in her and it was one she hoped would never fully leave. “Well, I love it,” she said softly and tugged on his hand as she stepped on through the doorway to the next and final room.

In the dark of the farthest space in the mushroom, the light suffused the place came entirely from the bioluminescent fungi he had picked out just for her. Pulling him in for a kiss, Faye whispered,” You are my light,” before her lips touched his.

He kissed her back and then pulled back and smiled. “So… what else do you want to show me? I’m game for anything.” he said. He just held her and looked at her, his green eyes sparkling in the low light.
