Title: A Man In Uniform

Summary: She'd never understood what was so great about a man in uniform. Drabble. MA.

Spoilers: Takes place sometime post-Freak Nation, but there are no real spoilers.

Disclaimer: I don't own Dark Angel. But that's okay. I've still got Alec. ;)

A/N: This was inspired by a picture of Jensen in a uniform for the play, "A Few Good Men." I just couldn't resist, lol.

A/N2: As always, all the credit for this goes to the Lord. Without Him, I would never be able to write anything at all. :)

Dedicated to my wonderful friend SophieSaulie, who always encourages my inner fan-girl.


A Man In Uniform

Max didn't know what she'd been expecting.

Yeah, Alec had said he knew a guy who could probably scrounge up a uniform from somewhere. And yeah, Alec was the one who needed to convince a four-star General that he was a Lieutenant, so it made sense that he'd be wearing the uniform…

But knowing that, and actually seeing it, were two different things, and whatever she'd been expecting, this wasn't it.

Alec stood in the middle of command, wearing crisp, Air Force dress-blues, rank insignia pinned to his collar, ribbons decorating his chest.

He looked like the soldier he really was, but different somehow. Prouder. He stood a little straighter, held his head a little higher.

It looked good on him.

"So," Alec grinned, "do I pass inspection?"

Max could only nod.
