Janeway/Seven Advent Calendar Story 2007
Janeway’s Odyssey
By Gun Brooke
18
Janeway melted at the hopeful way with which Seven looked at her. “Yes.” She pulled Seven closer. Standing like this, bodies so close they nearly touched each other, Janeway found it hard to breathe. “Gods, Seven. Too many years.” She leaned forward and kissed Seven’s long neck just where her biosuit ended. Seven’s skin was surprisingly hot to the touch, and she couldn’t help but use her tongue to taste it. Amazed at the mix of something very clean, mixed with something slightly metallic, Janeway groaned in the back of her throat and kissed a trail of open-mouth kisses up toward Seven’s cheek implant. Reaching it, she cautiously slid her tongue along it and was startled at the faint whimper coming from Seven at the contact. “You all right?” Janeway murmured into Seven’s ear and continued the caress as she waited for Seven’s response. “I am…functioning…” Seven slid her hands up Janeway’s arms, continued around her shoulders and up into her hair. “Good.” Janeway moaned at how Seven’s fingers massaged her scalp and pulled her closer. She painted a wet trail with her tongue around Seven’s ear and then pulled back just enough to be able to look into Seven’s eyes. Dark blue and enormous, Seven’s irises glimmered in the muted light, even clearer than the iriina diamonds Janeway and Norrian had used as collateral when narrowly escaping from a mining planet a year ago. “Captain…” “Kathryn.” Janeway kissed Seven’s chin gently. “Call me Kathryn, Seven.” “Kathryn.” Seven breathed the name over Janeway’s lips. “Kathryn.” “I like how you say it.” In fact, Janeway more than liked it. Seven spoke her name like it was a caress against her soul, and the sweet scent of Seven’s breath was intoxicating. Their lips were a mere whisper apart. _______________________________________________________________
