J/C PG13 Part 1
Post Endgame- Kathryn visits Chakotay at the University where he is a teacher.
Kathryn Janeway stood in the hallway of the University. She looked up at the clock, "well it's now or never." Slowly she pushed the door that lead to the lecture hall.
Professor Chakotay stood at the front of his class. "Are their any other questions about the Viddians before I hand out tonight's assignment?"
A young girl in the front row raised her hand. Suddenly the door at the back slammed shut. Everyone in the class turned around. Chakotay looked up, but remained silent. A figure took a seat in the back. The class turned around.
Chakotay took a seat at his desk. "That's all for today class, please don't forget that you have a test on Friday." "Dismissed."
The class exited the hall while Chakotay sat at his desk. He was quiet and didn't look up. Finally, he sighed loudly. "Why are you here Kathryn?"
Kathryn stood from her seat in the back. "I wanted to see an old friend." She began to walk down the stairs toward him.
Chakotay looked up at her. "Well I don't want to see you, and I am not YOUR friend." He picked up some papers on his desk and put them in his briefcase, and locked it. "In fact Kathryn I can honestly say, I hope I never see you again!"
Kathryn stood on the stairs, while he left the lecture hall. As soon as the door closed she bolted for the door. She opened it and entered the crowded hallway. She saw him making his way toward the exit. She took a deep breath. "Dammit Chakotay I love you, I want to be with you, I want to be by your side and love you till the day I have my last breath!"
All of the students were silent as Chakotay turned around. Tears were streaming down Kathryn's face. He walked a few steps toward her and stopped.
