What was she doing in there, he had been waiting for half an hour for Vala to emerge from her room so they could go to the commissionary for breakfast and then onto his lab.

Unfortunately he couldn't go without her as both these places were further than 100 feet away from their quarters.

He had stopped himself from knocking on the door or entering, knowing that Vala would use the opportunity to try and seduce him again, like when she had turned up in his quarters the night before.

No, he wasn't going to go in there he was going to wait patiently, they had already had this discussion once, that they would get up at 8.00am. Vala had wanted 10.00am and Daniel had wanted 7.00am, so they compromised.

It was getting closer to 8.45 and Daniel was getting irate, this is just to punish me from turning her down last night. She is going to make me wait here knowing that I have a ton of work to do.

That's it, I am going in and dragging her out if I have to, Daniel went to her door and knocked, No answer, he swiped his card through the holder and let himself in.

Typical, she was still sound asleep in her bed.

"Vala, Vala, Come on Vala it's time to wake up."

"No go away." Vala answered laying faced down, leaving Daniel unable to see her face.

"Vala, I have work to do."

"Unless you're naked I don't want to know."

"Vala"

"Don't care."

"Vala, we agreed we would be up at 8am."

"But I'm sleeping." She whimpered

"Having something to eat might wake you up." He suggested, trying another approach

"But I'm so snuggled." She replied cuddling her quilt further

"Vala." He warned

Vala simply responded by kicking at him from her current position, without much success as she was reluctant to change positions for better leverage.

"We had an agreement, and stop trying to kick me."

"Shhhhhh, either get in and join me or go away."

"Vala, you have got ten seconds or I am going to drag you out."

Vala made me movement, staying warm and happy in her bed.

Daniel pulled the duvet off her revealing, the same camisole outfit she had on the previous night. Her body still laid limp on the bed, although a little colder than she had previously been.

Daniel reached under her picking her up and throwing her over his shoulder, carrying her into her en suite bathroom.

"Daniel!" she squealed in shock, Never imagining he would actually drag her out, she was actually quite proud of his actions.

He put her down on the edge of the toilet as he ran a shower for her.

"Oh, are you planning to join me?"

"No, I think you can take it from here, I'll be back in 15 minutes and I expect you dressed and ready by then."

"But if you leave me here I may fall asleep again, I think you'd better stay." She said walking towards him and placing her hands on his chest.

"If you're awake enough to hit on me, you're awake enough to shower."

"Oh Daniel, I could hit on you when I'm asleep." She laughed. "I actually do sometimes" she added as an afterthought.

Daniel looked curiously at her.

"Do you want a description?"

"No, thank you, just shower and get dressed. He said walking out of the room

Vala pouted as he left, wishing he had stayed with her. But got in the shower and ready to leave, thinking of different ways to tease him throughout the day.
