“Nope, not at all Ms Scott, I’m simply walking here. In my room, at my drawers.” He held her tight and then dropped his lips to her neck. “Have you found it yet? Maybe if I do this…” he ran his tongue lightly around the sensitive skin of her neck and to the soft point just under her ear.. “you might remember. Did you have them with you when we did this earlier? Does it help you remember?”

Ally closed her eyes and remembered that moment. Her body began to feel hot. It started in the area Rico was giving his full attention to and radiated out. Across her shoulder blades and down her back. “No it confuses me actually,” she said in a low tone titling her head to the side to give him more access to her neck. “It’s causing me pounding in the ears, nervousness, blurred vision, fainting, talking or acting with excitement you cannot control,” Ally rattled off a series of symptoms. “Don’t stop though.
I need to work…under pressure,” she tilted her head to the other side with her eyes still closed so Rico could finish his work. She loved the power of Rico and the way he felt against her body when they were this close.

Rico grinned wickedly and looked over her shoulder at the drawer. He had no secrets and hid nothing from her, she knew where all of his things were, all his holonovels and every part of him he let her see. He was comfortable with her being here and seeing so much of him, even though they didn’t live together. For a long time, it had been simply easier to have different quarters. His job and her job could vary greatly at times and sometimes they didn’t get to see each other awake, only asleep as one of them came home from work and slipped into bed beside the other, and then the other would wake up a few short hours later and go to work while the other slept. It was life on a Starship, but they lived and loved together as a pair. They slept beside each other every night, if Ally wasn’t in his bed with him then Rico was in hers with her. Off duty the couple were nigh inseparable.

“You do realize that the three bottles you talk about, are two thirds yours right. Mine is the all-in-one body wash, shampoo and conditioner. One is the coconut body lotion you bought me that you use,” he pressed his nose and lips into her shoulder and sniffed, “and damn you smell good too baby.” He let his lips tickle her neck again to ‘help’ her find the nail file. “That third bottle, you know I’m not the one that uses bubble bath, not unless you are in it with me. Remember when you snuck it in over the shower door when I wasn’t looking and turned me into the abominable snowman?”

“Innocent mistake,” she broke out into a small grin laying her head back on his chest as she talked. “Besides when you had to get back in during my shower time you were not complaining in the least. In fact, I think you thanked me later that day. I seem to remember getting a few messages indicating you had a spring to your step and a dopey grin on your face. Several in your department also thanked me. Lt. Vargas said you seemed particularly unphased about missing PT that morning and Lt. Sheldon said everyone got a 90% rating on their marksmanship. They commented on how you were busy making reports all morning…with a spring to your step and a dopey grin on your face,” she pulled his arms tighter around her body.

Rico smiled and kissed her cheek, then dropped his head on her shoulder and looked at the two of them in the mirror that was mounted on these drawers. Rico and Ally, very much a couple that loved and laughed and looked damn good doing it. “Move in with me, baby.” He looked her in the eyes via the mirror. “Properly. You already have the key to my heart, and my home. I want you here beside me always.”

Looking at his reflection in the mirror, the grin on Ally’s face spread across her face and her eyes seemed to light up. “You mean permanent bunking over. Like my mail comes to your place and when my mom calls you have to do the wave thing over your head when she calls out your name proper move in,” Ally tilted her head so that it rested on his. She never took her eyes off his nor lost the look of happy excitement on her face.

“That’s exactly the kind of ‘move in’ I’m meaning,” he said to her, still not letting her go but making sure his lips caressed her cheek in between his sentences. “The kind where I have to explain to my Mother why I never told her my girlfriend was living with me now while behind her on the comm my Dad gives me winks and thumbs ups. The type where after we go out on a date night, we don’t ask ‘who’s place’ but I tell you ‘climb on my back, we’re going home’.” Now he stopped looking at her in the mirror, and instead straightened and with his hands moving to her waist turned her to face him. Reaching up again, he brushed a hair from her face and softly kissed her forehead. “What say you?”

“I accept but on one condition,” she held her breath for a second. The next part was big. Maybe not to most but to her it was monumental. She didn’t think he would say no but his answer would ultimately change the course of their relationship. She was spoiled at times and wanted what she wanted when she wanted it. Rico gave in always to her wants and needs until the few times he didn’t. Those times she gave in without a second word because for him to say no it had to be important to him. Allison Scott was an old fashioned girl at heart. She was simple. She wanted to help people in the galaxy and have a family she could love and take care of. Ally wanted to have dinner every night followed by homework, have great makeup sex, and send out corny Christmas cards in matching sweaters from Mr. and Mrs. blank. The next question would determine if Rico’s name would fill in the spot saying Happy Holidays from the ______

“Spend Christmas with me and my family?”

Rico’s smile widened immediately and he brushed another hair from her face. In the time that they had been together on the Ogawa, since their first day, Rico had never met Ally’s family nor she his. Of course they had both spoken to each other’s parents, often when special dates had come around and they had been there when the other had called, but neither had been home since their beginning. To Rico, moving in was a big step in their relationship, and meeting the parents in person was bigger. That Ally had moved straight to one-up his desire for her to be with him spoke volumes about how much she loved him, and his pause wasn’t to choose, but to let his smile and the love he had for her show.

“Yes, I would love to spend Christmas with you and your family,” Rico told her and pulled her tight to him, his arms moving around her back and shoulders in an all encompassing hug, “And then you can spend Boxing Day with me and mine. I guess we are going to have to start shopping for gifts huh.”
