"Maybe next time." I blinked at what he said.

"Next time? Wait, I didn't say I wouldn't go." He smiled and patted my head, taking the tray once more he walked out the door. Processing what just happened I went after him. By the time I caught up to him he was already walking out of the mess hall.

"You walk fast, you know that."

He chuckled, "Well when you know the ins and outs of the ship it happens. After you."

I walked in front of him not knowing where to go. We came to the ladder and he told me to climb up.

"Why am I leading the way?" I turned my head down to him, but he never answered, he just smiled, "That smiling is starting to get on my nerves."

He let out a laugh as we made our ascent. I bit my lip hiding my smile, we made it to the bridge and sat in the two chairs. Looking out the window all I saw were pipes, darkness and more pipes. It's like being in a giant sewer.

"I can understand why Cypher hates this." I muttered under my breath.

"What was that?"

"Huh? Oh nothing, nothing. Where's everybody else?"

"What do you mean?" He raised a questioning eyebrow at me.

"I mean there have to be more people out here... Right? Like that Niobe chick."

"Of course there are more people. What did you think it was just us?"

"Well I haven't really seen anyone else now have I?" Tank pushed my shoulder causing me to laugh.

"Smart ass." He stuck his tongue out at me, so I kicked his shin, "Ouch!"

I made an innocent face and crossed my legs in the chair.

Rubbing his shin with his left hand, he flicked my temple with the other.

"Ah! You dick!" Laughing he moved his leg before I could kick him again. Reaching over I went to punch his arm which he also moved. He dodged and blocked all of the punches I threw at him, getting frustrated I stood up and moved towards him. Seeing this he grabbed me by my waist pulling me towards him. Not wanting to fall I placed my hands on his shoulders and my right knee in between his legs.

"...uh..." Was all I could say as a little blush showed on my cheeks.

I began to move back when I felt his grip tighten a little. Our eyes locked as he pulled me closer to him. He moved my knee so I was straddling him, and placed his hand on my waist again. Biting my lip I looked around the bridge. I felt his hands travel to the small of my back, my butt, thighs and back to my waist. Leaning in he nipped my collarbone, his tongue traveled up my collarbone to my neck. Closing my eyes I let out a small moan. He pulled me closer as he began lightly sucking on my neck, I could feel the heat building up inside my body, it all seemed to be going to one place. As he tangled his fingers in my hair I rolled against him as hard as I could pulling him towards me.

Groaning he squeezed my upper thigh moving forward so I could feel how hard he was. Placing his forehead against mine he moved his hand under my shirt, I began to feel shy and unsure of myself and I stopped his hand.

"Wait. I- I don't think this is such a good idea." He blinked questioning my response.

"I understand." He pushed me off of him and into the chair. Before I could say anything Dozer walked in.

"Ah, here you are y/n! How you feelin'?"

Smiling I gave him a thumbs up as he walked over to me, Tank shifted in his chair. Dozer poked the side of his head asking if he was okay. All he got was a sigh and a grumble that I assumed was a yes.

"What's wrong with you?" Concerned Dozer spun the chair around.

"Nothing!" With that Tank got up and left. Dozer was about to call him when he decided to sit in the chair instead.

"So y/n?" He crossed his arms and sat back in the chair.

"So Dozer?" 

"What's wrong with him?" Dozer asked staring out at the darkness around us.

"I don't know!" I answered too quickly. Dozer blinked once turning to me and I smiled as innocently as I could, "Really, I don't know. Would I lie to you?"

"I don't know. Would you lie to me?" I stood up from my chair and began walking to the ladder, before I climbed down Dozer called my name.

"Y/n. Nice tattoo." Furrowing my brow as Dozer pointed at his neck.

"Shit!" I climbed down the ladder as fast as I could, Dozers' laughter could be heard from two floors down.

Running to my room I bumped into Apoc and Switch.

"Whoa where's the fire short stuff?" Apoc tied his hair back.

"Uuhh nowhere. Hey Apoc you have a lot of hair. Do you have a hair tie or something that I could borrow?" Switch chuckled and handed me Apoc's makeshift hair tie.

"Hey! I need that." Switch began braiding his hair and pushed him to continue walking.

Smiling I thanked them and tied my hair to the side to cover the mark. I made my way to the crew quarters looking for Tank. I felt someone wrap their hands around my waist and pull me flush against them. Smiling to myself I laid my head on their chest, looking up I saw Cyhper was smiling down at me. I got tense as he leaning in and smelled my hair.

"You're so beautiful, you know that y/n." I was extremely uncomfortable and moved away from him as fast as I could.

"Thanks... Have you seen Tank?" Cypher pointed to a retreating shadow. Tank saw that, great. Without looking back at Cypher I went to explain what happened to Tank.

"What? I'm sure I saw him go this way." Biting my lip in frustration I went back to my room.

"Guess I just need to wait for him to calm down. I hope he doesn't think I like Cypher or anything." Closing my door I laid down on my bed and began to dream.
