Garrus had been requested to meet with Shepard in her living quarters when he could. He decided to finish up his work on the console, and went to the elevator. Once he entered Shepard's room, he saw her nowhere.

"Hello, Shepard," he asked, confused. She was in the bathroom, finishing a shower.

"I'll be out in just a minute, Garrus," Jane replied. He's way too early, she thought. After a couple of minutes, she walked out, wearing nothing but a towel.

"Erhm.. Shepard," he said, slightly flaring his mandibles, embarrassed. "Did you expect me to be later than I was?"

"Yeah. Let me just get my clothes on." Jane went to grab clothes and then returned into the bathroom. After a couple of minutes, she walked back out, wearing her casual clothes. Garrus ended up looking at her for longer than he intended. "You okay, Garrus? You're looking at me funny."

"Huh? Oh, sorry. I-I uh... Nevermind, what did you need me for?"

"I wanted to talk to you. In private." Jane sat down on her couch, and motioned for Garrus to sit. He chose to sit next to her, so it was easier to talk. When he sat down, she scooted a little closer, and he didn't notice.

"I guess I can't argue with that. But why didn't you come to me?"

"I was sick of having to come to you. Besides, you needed the exercise anyway." She chuckled after saying that.

"Ha, ha. If we weren't friends, and you weren't my commander, I'd slap you."

"Charming. Now, I wanted to ask you some.. personal.. questions."

"Oh. Go ahead and ask away, Shepard."

"Well, this isn't a question, but feel free to call me Jane when we're in private," after Jane said that, Garrus cleared his throat. "What?"

"Shep-.. Jane, you're sitting a little.. close." Garrus said. Jane blushed slightly, and she moved a bit away from him. I didn't really mind, Garrus thought.

"So.. what do you look like under your armor? You wear armor quite a lot."

"Well, wouldn't you like to know," Garrus joked, chuckling afterwards. Jane laughed, looking him in the eyes.

"Well, yes actually." She said, the tone in her voice quickly becoming serious. Garrus looked back at her, and he seemed slightly shocked. Jane put a hand on his shoulder, wanting him to take his armor off. He sighed, and stood up. He started removing his armor, and eventually revealing his casual clothes underneath.

Jane looked at his clothing choice with interest. Damn, he looks great, she thought. He placed his armor next to the couch. He started feeling awkward with Jane staring at him so he started getting defensive.

"Damn, if you don't like it, maybe you shouldn't have asked me to do this in the first place," He semi-shouted, very aggrivated. She didn't respond, which only made Garrus angrier. He plopped down on the seat on the couch next to her and he let out an angry sigh.

She scooted closer to him, and put her arm around him. She patted him on one of his shoulders, and rest her head on the other. He didn't understand what she was doing, but he copied her by resting his head on hers.

"I don't hate it," she chuckled. "I think you look amazing."

Garrus was so shocked, he accidentally pushed her off of his shoulder. She hit her head on the back of the couch. He quickly moved his talons to the back of her head, and rubbed where she bumped her head. He almost recoiled, because her hair was still damp from the shower.

"Jane. You caught me off guard. Anyway," He said, looking away from her. "Do you have any other questions?"

"No," Jane replied, moving her head back to his shoulder. "I lost my entire train of thought, just looking at you in your clothes."

"I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Should I put my armor back on and leave now?"

"Now that I think of it.. since it's quite a while until we reach our destination, how about you watch a movie with me?"

"I like the idea, but it's quite late. Wouldn't it be bad to leave in the middle of a film?"

"You can sleep here if you want." Jane answered. This saying had baffled Garrus. He would feel awkward sleeping the same bed as Jane. He took a few seconds to think.

"I completely look forward to sleeping with you," Garrus said, chuckled, and then realized is mistake. "Spirits, that's not how I meant that."

"Right.." Jane replied.


Garrus was laying next to Jane in her bed. They had just finished watching a movie, and they were both extremely tired. It's not going to look good if someone walks in here, Garrus thought.

He turned over to his side, closing his eyes. He started to fall asleep.

"Garrus." Jane said, abruptly.

"Woah, huh?" Garrus said, waking up from a small nap. He turned on his other side to look at Jane.

"We're good friends, right?"

"Yes, why?"

"You don't mind sleeping here, do you?"

"I feel odd about it, but hey, I understand. You felt lonely and you needed the most handsome guy on the ship to keep you company," Garrus joked. Jane laughed, which made Garrus feel bad about himself.

"I don't know about handsome," Jane replied, joking too. Garrus felt his heart sink. "But, stunningly handsome, and gorgeous make more sense to me."

Garrus smiled at her and laughed. Jane, without thought, gave him a tight hug. He was surprised by this action, but hugged back. She didn't stop there, and she gave him a kiss on his mouth.

Garrus shoved her away, and gasped. He moved the blanket off of him and stood up, almost falling over.

"Garrus wait! That was an accident!" Jane claimed, almost ready to cry.

"Yeah, right. You know what a real accident would be," he asked, not waiting for a reply. "Leaving you in here by yourself would be one."

"Aw, you stupid turian, you did that for a line?" Jane said as Garrus got back in the bed.

"Heh, I'm sorry. That was unexpected. But so was that... kiss?"

"Yeah, bad idea on my part," she said, and wrapped her arms back around Garrus. This time, he went in for the kiss. He forced his mouth against her human lips.

They each were enjoying eachother's companies, and mouths. Garrus got too excited, and forced her much closer. Jane put her tongue in his mouth, and to her surprise, he liked it.

He forced her to lay on her back, and he moved on top of her. They continued making out, until he decied to pull away. He moved down, and started kissing her neck. He was curious, and he moved his hand to Jane's chest. He squeezed gently with his talons. She quietly moaned.

"Mmmh.. Garrus.." Jane said, trying not to moan more.

"Yes?" He replied, squeezing gently again.

"Mmph.. It feels good and all, but we gotta stop."

"What," Garrus asked, and moved his hand back. "Why?"

"I don't feel like doing that right now."

Garrus moved from on top of her, and laid back next to her. He decided to sleep, and so did Jane.


Jane woke up in her bed, and didn't see Garrus anywhere. Maybe it was a dream, she thought to herself. She got up and stretched.
Suddenly, Garrus entered the room with two cups. He gave a cup of coffee to Jane. She put it down on her desk, but didn't take a sip.

"Sorry if you don't like coffee. I still don't know what you favorite thing to drink in the morning is," Garrus apologized, and took a sip from his mug.

"I like coffee, don't worry. I just need to ask you a question." Jane said and looked him in the eyes.

"Ask away."

"Do you remember... last night?"

"Of course I do. We watched one of your favorite films, and I slept in here." Garrus replied. He saw her neutral look turn into a frown. "Or.. uh.. was what I did before we slept not a dream?"

"Pfft, yeah, that was real. It was a surprise to me too."

"Never thought I'd get to touch the sexiest commander. Anyway, were you going to say something else?"

"No. Just never thought I'd be able have the the sexiest turian touch me and have it be real."

Garrus smirked, proud in himself. "Just so you know, Shepar-.. Jane, if some of your crew go asking you about a certain turian and why he was in casual clothing, and WHY he was going to your room with coffee, that's your fault," Garrus decided to joke.

"I won't know what to tell them then. Did you see anyone in particular who looked like they were going to ask you?" Jane questioned.

"Just Joker, and probably Tali. She had to most confused look on her.. face," He took a couple of seconds to try to rephrase that. He took a sip of coffee before retrying. "I mean, she looked confused, is how I can state it."

"Heh, do all turians have trouble speaking?"

"Only when they're nervous, or around the hottest looking human in existance." Garrus flirted.

"You still haven't failed to make me blush, though we've only tried for the past hour now."

"Yeah. I'm going to go back to the mess hall to speak with Tali - she seemed like something important was on her mind."

"Okay, see you." Jane said. As Garrus was walking away, she hesitantly spoke. "I love you, Garrus."

Garrus stopped walking, and turned back at her. He had a couple of facial expressions as a reaction, and then he looked her in the eyes. "I.. I love you too, Jane."

Jane walked forward to Garrus. She kissed him on his mouth, and gave him a hug. They both smiled at eachother, and then Garrus left.


"Hey, Tali." Garrus said, entering the mess hall. Tali was still sitting in her spot.

"Oh, hi Garrus," Tali hesitated to say.

"Is something wrong today? You seem a bit.. off."

"It's something that I don't want to talk about."

"I'm your friend, Tali. It's alright."

"Oh, alright. When we last visited the Citadel, I met a human named John."

"Hm. What about this human is bothering you?"

"I decided to keep in contact him, and.. uhh.."

"What, did he insult you or something?"

"Well, no, he did the exact opposite.. and he said his full name was 'John Shepard'." Tali looked up at Garrus after she said this, and saw him in shock. Garrus looked for anyone else in the room, and sat down next to Tali.

"Tali, don't worry. Maybe it's just a coincidence. Humans commonly are from different parts of the Earth, and have the same last name, and they aren't related at all. I think."

"If you say so.. but when I met him he looked almost similar to Commander Shepard herself."

"I'll ask her if she happens to have a brother, when I can."

"I doubt you'd remember to ask her while you're in bed with her." Tali joked.

"What, are you jealous that she got to sleep in the same bed as me?"

"What? No! Well, sort of. But I prefer to sleep with.. nevermind."

"You were going to say the human you met, weren't you?" Garrus asked, and Tali didn't respond. She looked down back at the table. "Tali, you don't even know the guy."

"Oh, shut up, Vakarian. You get to sleep with the commander, but I can't be in.. friends.. with her probably fake brother?"

"Sounds like you're having trouble making up how you feel about this guy." Garrus joked, finished his coffee and then started walking away.

"Hey, wait! Don't tell anybody except Shepard!" Tali whisper-shouted. Garrus only nodded, and went back up Jane's room.


When he opened the door, he saw Jane typing on her omni-tool, oblivious to Garrus walking in.

He cleared his throat to get Jane's attention. "Ahem! Jane."

She quickly finished what she was doing, and looked at Garrus. "Well, you're pretty comfortable saying my name, aren't you?"

Garrus walked over to her, and casually put his arms around her and rested them on her sides. He looked slightly down to look her straight in the face, and smirked. "I am. I had a question to ask, but I can't help but want to kiss you."

She smirked and chuckled. She moved his hands to her butt to help support him carry her. She bent her legs and put her arms on Garrus' shoulders. Garrus held her up, and looked straight at her.

"Is this a normal way to.. uh.. hold you?" Garrus asked, slightly embarrassed that he was holding her butt.

"If you're feeling romantic." Jane answered.

"Feeling romantic? How does that work?" Garrus questioned, confused. She silenced him by forcing her lips against his mouth. It only took seconds until they had their tongue's in eachother's mouths. They were each enjoying it.

Jane let out a moan because she needed to breath. After a couple of seconds, Garrus put out a moan of his own. He started to get aroused. They stopped kissing when Jane moved back from his kiss.

"Okay, let's stop. Let me down," Jane said, and Garrus complied. As soon as Jane was back on her feet, she removed her hands from his shoulders. "What was your question?"

"Hmm.. Hard to think of now that every thought in my mind is now of you," he replied, genuinely.

"Aw, come on, that's easy to say."

"No, I'm serious about this one. Give me a second, Jane," Garrus said, stopping to think. He looked at her waist, and started admiring it within his head. "Oh! Right. Jane, do you have a brother?"

Jane looked surprised, and looked down at her feet. She took a few seconds.

"Well.. yes, I do."
