I own nothing. Enjoy and I'd love a review. I wrote this a few years ago and I'm only typing it up now so i should update regularly.
"No! Wait! Please don't go yet!' Tom looked up at B'Elanna with his big baby blue eyes. "Please stay."
"What, and let the warp core explode? You know they can't cope without me." B'Elanna stoop, pulling the satin sheets around her. She quickly yanked on her uniform, her back to Tom's pleading face.
"Hey, where's my…" she turned to see Tom holding up her jacket and grinning.
"I'll fight you for it," he challenged.
"But you know I'll win flyboy." With a Klingon growl she launched herself at him, and he grabbed her shoulders. He laughed and rolled on top of her, kissing her neck. Suddenly the door beeped. B'Elanna and Tom gasped.
"Wh, who is it?" B'Elanna called out uncertainly.
"It's Janeway. Can I come in?"
B'Elanna looked down at Tom, lying naked next to her.
"Sure, just one second." She pushed at Tom and he grabbed a sheet and disappeared into the bathroom. Smoothing down her hair, B'Elanna walked to the door and beeped it open. "Good morning Captain. What can I do for you?"
"Can I come in? There's a personal matter I wish to discuss with you."
B'Elanna looked over her shoulder. Tom's uniform was poking out from under the ruffled bed.
"Sure. Come in. Sorry about the mess."
Janeway stepped inside and went to the couch to sit down. B'Elanna went to the bed, pretending to straighten her sheets, but really stuffing Tom's uniform completely under cover.
"So what did you want to discuss?" she inquired, slightly worried that Janeway knew about Tom.
"Well," said Janeway carefully, "I was wondering if you would agree to give Naomie Wildman lessons on engineering. Her mother would really love her to widen her studies and engineering is a fascinating place."
B'Elanna was aghast. "You want me to teach? Teach Naomi? Be a teacher? And teach?"
Janeway laughed. "Something like that. You're the best engineer we have."
"Yes, but teach?"
"Good. She'll be in engineering at 0800 hours. Be nice."
Janeway left quickly, before B'Elanna could object further. As soon as she had gone B'Elanna collapsed onto the bed with a sigh. Tom slid out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around is waist and put an arm around his beautiful girlfriend.
"Cheer up Lieutenant. I'm sure you'll be a great teacher. A little scary maybe, but very informative."
B'lanna shot him a Look before smiling and standing up. She gave her lover a gentle kiss and pulled on her jacket.
"Try not to break anything or let anyone see you leave." She reminded Tom, while walking out the door. He watched her leave with a smile on his face and then set about getting dressed. He couldn't remember someone ever making him as happy as B'Elanna did.
