I blame the lovely ladies from the KAAS for this. Well, mainly Jho and that booty pic :O**
I wanted to say thanks heaps for the responses to my first chapter of Off Screen (why, oh why did I start it so far before Kaidan was in the pic?!). As a nervous first time writer you have no idea how happy it makes me seeing those alerts in my inbox xo

Bootie
I was in my cabin, sitting up against the head of the bed, feeling like I had just taken a sedative. A lazy smile spread across my face as I watched Kaidan stroll out the bathroom with a white fluffy towel wrapped precariously low around his hips. He acknowledged me with his trademark smirk as he passed by to the closet. My gaze was fixed on a particular droplet of water as it made its way down the back of his neck and followed the curve of his spine until it reached the towel. That's as far as my eyes got on their roaming. Once they had the best damn butt in the galaxy locked in their view they were rendered helpless. It was true that I had been seeing and touching said butt nearly every night for the last few months, but the sight had not become any less impressive. Plus I had defeated Saren, some Reapers and some Collectors and died for gods' sake. I figured I was entitled to a bit of perving. I noticed Kaidans body move slightly and I reluctantly dragged my gaze up his body. He was looking over his shoulder at me, his brown eyes bright with humour.
Busted.
"You've seen it all before Commander" he said with a grin.
I shrugged "And I like what I saw".
"You mean this old thing?" Kaidan said, faking modesty. As he said it he inched the top of the towel down slowly so I could see the top portion of olive coloured cheek.
Best. Butt. Ever. The contrast of the white towel was making the sight even more impressive and I felt a small amount of drool gather at the side of my mouth.
"Shepard?"
"Mmm" I replied, without lifting my gaze.
"You're staring again" he said, and I could hear the humour in his voice.
"Mmm". Eloquence was over rated.
Kaidan let out a soft chuckle and dropped the towel.
Hel-looo.
I was betting it was still nice and warm from the shower. Surely I had only been staring for a few minutes. Five tops. I could scoot to the side of the bed and just give it a little bite. Or maybe I could just grab it. He liked when I did that…
I was leaning forward slightly, running through my options when Kaidan suddenly spun around.
Holy Shit!
My eyes glazed over and I felt my hands clench around the sheet. It had been covering my now exposed torso but I was beyond caring. He began walking towards me slowly and knelt down on the bed, forcing me to lie back down. His arms were either side of my shoulders, his thighs pinned either side of my legs to keep them contained. He nuzzled my hair away from my face with his nose and placed soft kisses along my jaw line to my ear.
"You appear to be objectifying me" he said in to my ear. "Do you think that's a wise move, given that I am your superior officer?"
I wriggled underneath him a little in an attempt to move higher so I could turn my head and kiss him. This plan worked better than intended though, when I felt his lower body shift and he growled in my ear. I felt a smirk of my own forming on my lips.
"Complaining Commander Alenko?"
"Never" he said, claiming my lips with his.
