Sleepless in Space
Door 16
Seven looked expectantly at Janeway, who in turn seemed unable to remain
stationary. The captain shifted and her facial capillaries created a pink hue on
her cheeks.
“Oh, Seven, you have a way to put me on the spot, don’t you?” Janeway shook her
head.
“Captain?”
“And yes, I admit that being this close to you, is beneficial to my emotional
state.” Janeway sighed and leaned into Seven. “I know it’s not right. As
captain, I’m supposed to be impartial. No crewmember should mean more to me than
any other. But, truthfully, you do.”
Seven could hardly breathe. Just when she thought she was beginning to
understand, Janeway said something that threw her off balance. “It is hardly a
secret that you are my ‘favorite’, Captain,” Seven said shyly.
“What do you mean by that, exactly?” Janeway cupped Seven’s cheek, rubbing her
thumb along her optical implant.
“I mean, you are the one.” Seven tried to explain, but the deepening frown on
Janeway’s forehead showed she did not understand.
“The one?”
“The
one.” Seven took Janeway’s hand and pressed it against her cheek, and then her
lips. She was not sure why she suddenly wanted to kiss Janeway, starting with
her palm and then everything else.
Janeway gasped and her hand trembled against Seven’s lips. “Seven…”
Sliding her lips up along Janeway’s wrist, Seven reveled in the sensation. Not
sure where the initiative came from, she allowed her tongue to taste the satiny
smooth skin.
“Oh, Gods,” Janeway sighed.
“Captain…” Seven could not let go of Janeway. She nuzzled up along her arm until
she reached the indentation at Janeway’s neck.
“You can’t keep doing that…and calling me captain…” Janeway held Seven’s head
with both hands, but didn’t push her away.
“Kathryn?”
“Better.” Kathryn tipped Seven’s head back, looking quizzically at her. “Are you
sure about this? About what you’re doing? And can you imagine how it feels to
me?”
“Yes. Yes. And not entirely.”
