"Except I can do it."

"I don't care. Maybe that's the way things work on planet Starbuck, but the rest of the universe doesn't see it that way. It's too risky."

"For a lousy pilot."

"For any pilot that values his safety and his ass."

"Frak Safety, it loses them, doesn't it?"

"Sure, at the cost of your equilibrium and you position of reference. You might be able to do it, but anyone with an ounce of self-preservation shouldn't even try it."

The sounds of Apollo and Starbuck's good-natured arguing float down the stairs before they're seen clattering down to find some dinner. Two muns, two pups, tag one or both.

"Maybe... if I smear it across my chest, and you lick it off as I make love to you."

*She considers the idea for a moment, smirking*

Hell to get out of your chest hair though...

"I'll shave. It'll be worth it."

You're that set on getting caramel all over you?

"In the name of making you groan like that, yeah, I could stand it. If you moan like that when you eat it, and you sound very similar when I'm frakking you, how much would you groan when you're licking it off me while my cock's vuried deep inside you?"

Very scientific and methodical, you see?

I'm not sure moaning is exponential...

"You don't know that it's not."

He shrugs.

"Maybe all that'll happen is we'd get sticky. We get that way already."

Besides, I thought you didn't believe that food was sexy.

"I'm not doing this for me Kara, I'm doing this for you."

Very professional and self-sacrificing. yes.

Right. It's just your duty. As my boyfriend.

*She's never had a boyfriend before, not even as a teenager. Kara Thrace took lovers. And Zak was different, but still never her boyfriend*

He raises an eyebrow a little at that.

"Boyfriend?"

He smiles though, he like it.

"But yes, as your boyfriend, it is my duty and my pleasure."

What do you think your title is here?

He looks down at his plate, pushing his jambalaya around.

"I don't know. I just figured 'Lee'."

You're my Lee?

He shrugs.

"It's true, isn't it?"

*She half-smiles*

Hard to introduce you that way though...Gives the impression that you're my pet or something...

"Okay, so... boyfriend."

It feels weird, it's been so long since that was a term he'd been referred to as.

"I guess that makes you my girlfriend. But... you said 'here'. You still think this won't translate when we go back."

I meant here in this relationship. But...I know what happens, Lee. And it won't translate. I wouldn't be surprised if I walked up to you after...when you catch up and you hit me and walk into the arms of the next woman who offers and marry her. Lucky woman.

He looks horrified.

"Kara..."

I know what happens, Lee. I know what you should do.

And I wish you and her the very best.

"Kara, stop. I refuse to have this conversation right now. I love you, that is never, never going to change."

That much is so, so very true.

*She closes her eyes and swallows hard. When she opens her eyes, they're still bleak, but she can smile again*

I think I said I would dance with you.

He relaxes, just a little.

"Yeah you did."

It's not that he doesn't believe that something happens, it's just that he believes that love, what they have, is stronger than that.

*She stands up and holds out her hand*

He takes it, standing and spinning her around a little. Enough to make her skirt flare out a little.
