Shepard was exhausted helping to coordinate the re-building effort was harder then he thought he opened the door to his quarters and realised the shower was on "Kasumi?" He called.

"Who else or are you telling me you've had other girls up here" Kasumi called back.

Shepard smiled even after all they had been through his girlfriend still maintained her sense of humour "I'm surprised you didn't join me sooner" Kasumi said realising Shepard's hand were on her waist.

"Work took longer then I had expected" Shepard explained.

"you take your work way to seriously" Kasumi said.

"This coming from the master thief" Shepard retorted.

"Well at least I'm good at my job" Kasumi countered.

"Hey it's difficult going form blowing everything up to fixing things" Shepard said as Kasumi turned of the shower.

"come on lets get dry then you can tell me all about what you have accomplished today" Kasumi said as she lead Shepard out of the shower.

Shepard told Kasumi everything that he had done in the various meeting he had been in today from securing funding of the reconstruction of Tchunka to getting the Geth equal rights around Citadel space. Kasumi tuned in and out of Shepard speaking when ever she heard something interesting she listened but not much caught her attention until.

"And the Volus are planning to sell some of the plastics they used to make the Crucible to the general public" Shepard said Kasumi looked at him with adventure clear in her eyes.

"What?" Shepard asked Kasumi just looked at him.

"What?, no ,no ,no I'm not helping you" Shepard said.

"Oh come on Shep you know what I could do with those plastics?" Kasumi asked.

"you know I won't ask you what you do with everything you 'acquire' but don't you think your going a little to far?" Shepard asked.

"Well it's not fair that the Volus should make money off helping to save the galaxy" Kasumi asked.

"Ok, I see your point I'll give you the name of the ship just promise me you'll be careful" Shepard said.

"Oh Shepard you know me I'm always careful" Kasumi said as she rushed off.

"Why was I ever worried?" Shepard asked himself as he saw Kasumi's shuttle fly from the Normandy.
