The small room was dark and queit as Vetra got up from the bed. The only sounds coming from her human girlfriend, currently sleeping peacefully in the bed next to her, were her occasional moans and soft snores as she would move in her sleep.
Mostly it was her queit, even breathing. Vetra moved to the desk and pulled out a data pad. She began read some messages she had been neglecting when a knock destroyed the peaceful silence. "Its me." A familiar female voice called out.
"Come on in, Sid." Vetra sat down the device and replied to her sister, who quickly followed orders. The younger turian looked over at Sara's sleeping form.
"Spirits! I'm not interrupting am I?!" Sid asked frantically. Vetra laughed. "No.
A raging krogan could ram through here and she wouldn't know it." She turned towards her girlfriend and yelled. "HEY RYDER! I'M RUNNING AWAY WITH A SALARIAN. WE'RE GOING TO LIVE ON VOELD STUDYING BUG SHIT IN THE SNOW OKAY?!" And then turned back to her sister. "See? Nothing." Sid laughed loudly at that. "What do we owe the pleasure?" Vetra asked. "Honestly? I couldn't sleep. Too much excitement lately." Sid replied, to which her sister nodded.

It had been one month since finding Miridian and things have been a bit hectic between constant parties and fixing the Nexus. Vetra herself was having trouble sleeping as well. "Yeah, same here. At least Ryder is getting some rest. She needed it more than any of us." The elder turian said and gestured to the sleeping human.
"How are things between you guys, by the way?" Sid asked with a happy curiosity to her voice. Vetra sighed happily. "Honestly? Wonderful. I haven't been this happy in a long time, Sid." "Awwwww! Listen to you! I think the Pathfinder made you a big softy!" "Hey! Keep that down! I have a reputation to uphold!" Sid laughed. "Well I'm going try to get some more sleep. I'll see you tomorrow." With that, she left. Vetra leaned back in her chair and picked up the datapad back up when she heard someone again but this time from behind her. "A raging krogan huh?" Vetra turned around in her chair to see Sara sitting up. Her short, bright, orange hair was a wreck and the shirt she was wearing, which was actually her girlfriends, was hanging off her shoulder. "You heard that did you?" Ryder nodded and got up from the bed. Vetra chuckled lightly. How someone could be so cute was amazing to her. The shirt itself was down to her knees. She walked over and crawled onto Vetras lap, curling up and laying her head on the crook of Vetra neck. Vetra absent-mindedly rubbed her leg with her hand while she read. "What are you reading?" Sara asked. "Just some requests from colonists that Kesh sent me. Some from Eos, some from the Nexus and even some from Aya."

They were silent for a while "Why did you fall for me?" Vetra asked out of the blue. "What do you mean?" Ryder replied. "I mean, I told you when we started dating that most people only liked me to get something out of me but you were different. I just want to know why..." "Well thats a silly question." "Silly? How?!" Ryder giggled. "Because you're a good person. And you love so strongly. And you're beautiful, inside and out." That made Vetra freeze. Beautiful? She had never been called that before. "You... You think I'm beautiful?" "No." Ryder responded and Vetra felt her heart sink. "I know you are." That made Vetra so happy she could burst. The turian put down the datapad, hooked her arms under Ryder stood up, making the human respond with a "Whoa!" "Alright. Its bedtime." Vetra leaned down and softly kissed Ryders lips. "I love you, Sara Ryder." She whispered and laid her down on the bed, and tucked her in before laying down next to her. 'Typical Vetra. Taking care of everyone else before herself.' Sara thought to herself. "I love you too Vetra Nyx." Vetra laid her arm over her as Sara snuggled into her chest. "Don't doubt yourself, love. You're so much more wonderful then you realize." Sara said sleepily. Vetra pulled her closer and closed her eyes. "Thanks, babe." She whispered before succumbing to a peaceful sleep.
