((USS Artemis, deck 9, Chief Science Officer’s office))
Vitor smiled and with his left hand he caressed Nan’s hair. She felt light as a feather on him, and there, on the floor of her office, Vitor realized how lucky he was.
And blessed.
Silveira: I will always look after you. You mean the world… No, the Universe to me. Why don’t we … ::He frowned and leaned his head back dropping it on the carpet.:: Dammit…
Jovenan: What is it? Is everything alright?
He raised his head to look Nan in the eyes. Vitor’s expression changed as he realized that he had a prior commitment that would take him away from his girlfriend… For weeks.
Silveira: I was about to say we should plan something, but I already told Sada I am going with her on a survey… Since we are going to Risa and my grandparents are there I thought it was a good way to not spend much time with them. ::He rolled his eyes:: I love them but… You know how family is and if you think I am… Exuberant you should see them… ::He frowned.:: Then again… Perhaps not yet…. Anyway… I am sorry my love…
His expression saddened as he looked at her. Maybe Sada wouldn’t mind if he reconsidered, but admittedly he felt better going with her, just to be on the safe side in case anything happened.
Jovenan: It’s alright, we both have our jobs, and they are going to require some flexibility. Besides, we have all the time in the universe once you get back.
He smiled, raising his head so that their foreheads touched.
Silveira: Your right we will still have plenty of shore leave to spend time with one another
You know, I think that's actually something we always got right, splitting between personal and professional time. I think somehow we always managed to balance… ::he raised an eyebrow:: You… Did you lock the door? I mean… Nobody is coming in to find us here… Right?
It wouldn’t be the first time they were interrupted. But certainly there wasn’t a chance to spoil such a moment…
Nan laughed and he was glad she did. She had such a sweet smile and laughter.
Vitor wanted nothing more than to keep her happy.
Jovenan: Computer, please lock the door. ::to Silveira:: There. That should make sure that even the Captain rings a bell before walking in.
He nodded and admittedly felt more at ease. It would be such a shame if they were interrupted now. It was their first moments as a couple and this time was all theirs.
Silveira: That’s much better, thank you my dear.
She quickly gave him a kiss on his cheek before resting her head down on his chest.
He smiled, leaned his head back and closed his eyes.
Jovenan: I just want to lie down here for a bit longer.
Vitor kept caressing her hair and with his other hand he crossed her back, resting it on her shoulder. It felt perfect. Nan’s breathing, her warmth weight over him, his caressing of her hair, was as if they were in a bubble.
A perfect love bubble that nobody would be able to pop.
Silveira: We can stay here as long as you want.
He smiled, even if she couldn’t see it. The only thing stopping Vitor from staying like this forever was that old wound from the Columbia, it didn’t left a scar, except in his mind.
But for whatever reason he was comfortable, laying on his back.
Mostly certain because he had his girlfriend in his arms.
Jovenan: When are you due to depart for the survey mission?
He shrugged and adjusted slightly, gently squeezing Nan against him.
Silveira: I am not really sure, a few days I think. I admit I didn’t pay much attention to that detail.
Jovenan: Mm-hmm. Do you think we could tell others about our relationship? If you want to, of course. But maybe only after you come back from the mission, I’m not sure Doctor Sadar would stop bothering you about it if you’re going to have to spend the next weeks with her.
Vitor pondered. He began caressing Nan’s shoulder as well, making small circles with his fingers. He kept his eyes closed as they talked, simply savouring the moment.
Silveira: Oh I don’t think Sada would be that much of a bother, I am pretty sure she isn’t the kind to ask questions about relationships. But if she knows I fear she might worry about taking me during shore leave, considering I could be spending the time with you.
I don’t want that thought increasing her anxiety.
Jovenan: Response
He tilted his head to the left, smiling.
Silveira: Other than that I am very much okay with shouting across the ship that the most beautiful, intelligent and amazing girl on the ship is my girlfriend. Although I might be biassed, because I love you.
Jovenan: Response
Silveira: Besides, it's not unexpected. I mean the Captain prompted us to get together, after interrupting us, I am sure she caught up on something. And I am pretty sure that Talos noticed how I was looking at you at the last award ceremony.
Jovenan: Response
