As soon the ship was on autopilot, Kendra got up and dragged Carter to their room. Carter smiled as Kendra sat down the bed and he joined her.
"My love" Carter said "We don't have to do anything you don't want to"
"Carter, it's not that I don't want to. I want to. I really do" Kendra replied
"I sense hesitation"
"I don't want to disappoint you"
"You never could my love, you never, ever could"
Kendra kissed Carter passionately and pushed him down on the bed. Meanwhile Rip smiled as Sara reclined on a chair in his study.
"So are you going to tell me what's up with the hawks or do I need to guess?" Rip said softly
"Do you really want to know about the personal lives of your team? Sara replied
"No, not really"
"So what are we exactly?"
"What?"
"The two of us. What are we? If your still hung up on your wife, that's fine, I just want to know what I am to you"
"I never would have pegged you for insecure"
"Rip…"
"Your like fresh air when you've been stuck inside all day. Spring after winter"
"What's that mean?"
"I love my wife, part of me always will, but you Sara, are something new and different and I'm falling in love with you too. I know your not used to the hearts and flowers and you probably hate it, but Miranda taught me how to love and it would dishonor her if I wasn't honest about my feelings for you"
"Rip Hunter, you will always surprise me"
"Is that good or bad?"
"Very good" Sara replied, as she moved the leave
"Where are you going?"
"Your room"
Rip smiled as he followed Sara willingly. Afterwards Rip smiled as he kissed Sara and laid down beside her.
"What am I to you" Rip asked softly
"I love you, very much" Sara replied "And it's kind of scary, but exciting too"
Rip kissed Sara again and watched as she got out of bed.
"Where are you going?" Rip asked, sitting up
"Kitchen. I'm hungry" Sara replied
"I guess I should get back to my duties as captain then"
"Probably a good idea"
Sara laughed as she and Rip got dressed. Sara was in the kitchen eating a cupcake when Kendra walked in, smile plastered on her face.
"So I take it your fears were unfounded?" Sara said softly
"Unbelievably so" Kendra replied "You look rather cheery this afternoon?"
"Had a good conversation with Rip"
"So you finally told each other your in love?"
"How did you…"
"Oh come on! You two can not be that dense. Everyone can tell your in love, hell random people we meet can tell"
Sara laughed as she continued to eat her cupcake and Kendra joined her.
