I lay on my bed and glanced up at the stars through the window of my cabins ceiling as I lost myself in my thoughts. A familiar Turian face with love and pride showing in those blue, mesmerizing eyes of his, glances at me in my head as I start to get allured by my own thoughts. Then suddenly, flashbacks begin to fill my vision. First thing I see is the C-Sec office, the day I first met Garrus.

I glance up at Garrus as he was in an argument about Saren.

"Give me more time! I can and will find Saren," Garrus said angrily pointing at the other Turian.

"Don't be ridiculous Garrus, your investigation is over." The turian who seems like the Captain of the investigation said and walked away.

Garrus held anger within his eyes and he glares at the now walking away Captain. I glance at him in worry and interest. For some unknown reason, I feel curious about him and want to know more. I walk towards him and sigh.

"I know you're mad, but does glaring at him til you burn a hole through his head going to fix or solve anything?" I said calmingly with no emotion showing.

He glances at me as the anger in his eyes lightens up slightly.

"No, it doesn't Commander Shepard, but it helps," He sighs and he rubs his neck awkwardly, "I have to find Saren, if I don't, who will?" he said stressfully with slight confusion.

I walk towards him and puts a reassuring hand on his shoulder in a comfort gesture. He tenses at the feel of my hand on his shoulder.

"Look, I know you want to find Saren for what he's done to your squad, but you can't do this on your own. Why don't we team up and catch Saren, you want to find him, I want to find him, so why not team up? We'll have a better chance finding him." I said as I glance into his eyes with a friendly expression but with a soldier stance as well.

He looks back at me and clicks his manidbles a few times, thinking it over. He nods and backs up as he puts his hand out in a form of a handshake.

"If it means getting Saren for what he has done, then I will team up with you Commander Shepard." He said with a smirk as I grab his hand and shake it.

"Welcome aboard Normandy Garrus Vakarian." I said as I continue to shake his hand grinning.

And that's how it all began…That one tiny agreement to catch Saren once and for all ended up as a cross interspecies relationship. At first it was only meant to catch him and to finally give what that little bastard what he deserves. Yet…it turned into of helluva road in search of Saren, dying and coming back to life, getting my crew back along with a few new members, fighting collectors, and now: the Reapers. More memories cloud up my vision as it makes me reminisce of how Garrus and I became what we are today. A certain memory caught my attention as I focus on it; it was the day when Jacob, Zaeed and I went to get Archangel. Yet I didn't notice that Archangel was Garrus.

I walk into the room where Archangel was hiding from the mercs and recruits, curious onto who Archangel was. All I knew from what I saw was that he was a Turian. He starts to take off his helmet, once his helmet was off my heart instantly stopped. The person who Archangel was, was no other than Garrus Vakarian; my lover before I died.

My heart swelled up into happiness as I look into his mesmerizing eyes that once and still do, give me butterflies in my tummy as he looks deeply into my eyes, as if he is staring into my soul.

He grins at me as he leans on the stool/crate with his leg propped up with sniper used to support his arm.

"Shepard, long time no see," He said as love, happiness, and shock appears in his eyes that is glancing into mine.

I grin as I put my hands up jokingly.

"Garrus! What are you doing here?!" I said happily.

"Oh you know, a little shooting practice. To keep my skills sharp. I could ask you the same thing." He said as he shrugged and gave his signature smirk.

That was the day we were reunited and fought our way through the mercs and came back to the Normandy in one piece…sort of. Well, besides the fact Garrus got hit in the face with a rocket launcher.

I pace in the conference room as Jacob tries to reassure me. All my mind can think of if Garrus will be alright.

"Shepard, relax. The doc did everything she can, he won't be up for a few more-" Jacob said but interrupted by the door opening with Garrus walking in, bandage on his mandible. I glance at him as relief washes over me as I walk towards him. He smirks and looks at me

"No one would tell me how it looks. How bad is it?" He says as he glances at me.

I smirk, "Hell you were always ugly Garrus, just put some face paint on and no one would notice." I said chuckling lightly.

He laughs and grimaces in pain, "Ha..ha..erm..Don't make me laugh, hurts when I laugh. My face is barely holding together as it is." He said with a happy glint in his eyes.

Butterflies fill my tummy as I stare into his eyes.

After that day, I knew I can't let him go, not back then, and not today. I can't lose him…and he sure as hell can't get hurt anymore or the pain he went through when I died. I just can't let him go through that again...not anymore.

The noise of the door swishing open caused me to snap out my flashbacks and sit up quickly to see who had opened the door. Blue eyes pierced mine as Garrus walked down the steps toward me.

"Coyle, are you alright?" He asked with concern filling his voice as he sits on the bed.

I nod and rest my forehead on his.

"Yeah, just reminiscing on the past." I said smiling at him as he purrs lovingly.

He chuckles and continues to purr. "Oh? Well, how about I get your mind off the past and onto something else?" He said leaning forward.

My heart starts to race as I grin and blush at the same time.

"I like how you think Vakarian," I said as I leaned in and closed the gap between us, kissing slowly yet passionately.
