Chapter Four: Code Blue

"Kara," Lee whispered against her temple. "Kara look at me," he said turning her to face him. They were a mere inch apart. "I am going to kiss you, then I am going to put my hands all over your body. And then my mouth is going to follow the path that my hands have laid down. And after you have begged me and screamed my name, I am going to get inside of you and posses you like no other man has before. You will belong to me and only me afterwards. If you don't want this to happen, you need to tell..." The last of Lee's words were muffled as Kara took possession of his mouth with her own. She coaxes his lips to part and her tongue sweeps in and lightly traces the roof of his mouth. Lee groans in the back of his throat and crushes her body to his.

Kara's hands were in his hair and her nails scraped gently across his scalp. Lee wants her skin on his, so he reaches between them and rips her shirt apart; sending buttons flying around the room. He draws in a deep breath when he realizes she has nothing on underneath her shirt. He reaches up and gently palms one of her breasts in his hand, gently stroking her nipple. Kara shudders at the feel of his roughened finger against her aroused nipple. Lee trails soft kisses down her throat and collar bone until he gets to the nipple he had been teasing and gently sucks it into his hot mouth. Kara's whole body jerks forward as heat spirals down into her center.

"Lee," she moans urging him to draw her in further. He shifts his attention to the other breast, lightly nipping at it and then soothing it with butterfly kisses. Kara feels a rush of moisture in between her legs and she softly whimpers, trying to get closer to Lee's erection. He smiles against her breast knowing that he is driving her crazy. Her breathing is ragged and her skin is flushed where he has touched her. He trails kisses down her chest to her stomach where he traces the tattoo around her navel with his finger. Lee stood and pulled Kara with him. He reached to her shorts unbuttoning them and drawing them off. He chuckles softly as he realizes she does not have any underwear on. He drops to his knees and kisses the mass of blond curls between her legs. Kara's knees begin to buckle and Lee supports her weight. He gently pries her legs apart lightly running his hands up her thighs and nipping at the soft flesh. He finds the mass of bundled nerves and gently teases it with his tongue. Hearing Kara's gasp makes him chuckle and he slips his tongue in between her slick folds.

"Oh God" Kara exclaims as Lee's tongue tortures her. Her knees begin to tremble and she does not know how long she stand, even with his support. Hot waves of pleasure course through her body threatening to send her over the edge to oblivion. Lee gently enters her with one finger and then pushes another inside of her. She clenches around his fingers as his mouth and hands drive all thought from her brain. He nips at her clitoris and is reward as she bucks against, trying to pull him in deeper. Lee increases his thrust wanting to hear her scream his name as she comes. Kara feels the trembling take over her body as waves of pleasure explode through her body and she cries out his name.

Lee gently extracts his fingers from her and gathers her up into his arms. He strides to her bedroom and places her on the bed. Kara watches him as he quickly removes his clothing, absently noticing that he is not wearing any shoes. Lee kneels on the bed straddling Kara's hips. He kisses his way up her body stopping to pay attention to each of her breast before capturing her mouth in a searing kiss. Kara hooks her foot around his knee and flips Lee onto his back so that she is straddling him. He grins and reaches up to pull her back into the kiss. Kara trails her mouth down his jaw, reveling in the roughness of his stubble against her sensitive lips. Her hands blaze a trail across his chest and down to his stomach; her mouth follows nipping and biting his sweat soaked skin. Lee gasp as Kara's hand closes around his sac and she gently sucks in the head of his cock into her mouth. Unable to help himself, Lee surges into her hot mouth and hears her satisfied chuckle as she takes him in. Kara alternates between sucking him in deeply and nipping at him as Lee pumps into her mouth.

"Kara please I want to be inside of you," Lee gasps out as he fights the urge to spill himself into her mouth. He reaches down and pulls her up his body, positioning her above his erection. He reaches between her thighs to touch her and finds her wet and ready for him. Kara flings her head back as he guides the tip of his head into her.

"Open your eyes Kara," Lee demands stopping himself from plunging deep into her. Kara fights the tremors racking her body to open her eyes and look at Lee. Blue eyes meet green and Lee pushes into her inch by inch until he is buried to the hilt inside her. Part of the Lee's mind screamed to him that this was not right and that he had to stop; but Lee knew he was to far gone and he did not care about anything beyond this moment and this woman. Kara ground her hips against him and Lee pulls out and plunges back into her, illicting a deep moan from her.

"My Gods woman, you are so beautiful," he said gazing up at her as he plunged in and out of her body. "Come to me Kara. Let yourself go and come to me," Lee whispered feeling himself about to plunge over the edge. After thrusting into her a few more times he felt Kara's orgasm crash through her and her tightening around his cock pulled him to thrust deep, spilling his seed into her.

Kara collapsed onto Lee's chest and he wrapped her in his arms. The two of them laid there, hearts hammering and their breathing ragged. Lee's hands gently caressed her back as he lightly kissed her neck.

"I am going to find you Kara. The universe is not big enough to keep us apart. So help me Gods I will find you," he said as eyelids drifted close.

&&&&&

The first thing Kara noticed when she woke up was that she was not in her quarters. Looking around she realized that she was in a hospital bed, and the beeping monitor above her head confirmed it. She pushed herself up on the bed and looked around. She was not in a private room but what looked like ICU. She did not hurt anywhere, except where the iv needle was stuck in her hand, so she could not understand why she would be in intensive care. Actually she could not understand why she would be on the hospital at all. The last thing she remembered was falling asleep in Lee's arms.

"Hey there sleepy head," Helo said coming around the curtain to see his best friend awake. "You almost gave me a heart attack Strabuck. I did not know you slept in the nude."

Kara had the good grace to blush. "What the hell is going on?" She asked glaring at her DCAG.

"Hey don't blame this on me. All I did was find you," Karl responded throwing his hands up in a defensive gesture and moving out of the room. "I will go and get your doctor and you can torment him.

"Helo get your ass back here and tell me what the hell is going on," Kara yelled as her best friend beat a hasty retreat. Damn coward; could not stay put and tell her what was going on. She was defiantly going to schedule him for all the late night patrols.

"It is good to see you finally awake," Avery greeted her coming into her room with a chart in his hands.

"Why should I not be surprised that you are my doctor," Kara replied, giving him a small smile.

"Well you do not expect me to allow anyone else to treat you do you?' He asked pulling up a chair and sitting by the bed.

"So what exactly are you treating me for?" Kara asked still feeling puzzled about why she was even here.

"What is the last thing you remember?" Avery asked pulling out a pen and opening her chart.

"Taking a shower and getting into bed," Kara replied. She did not want to tell him that she remembered every moment of the dream she had.

"Kara that was almost two days ago," Avery replied looking at her.

"Two days ago? How is that possible?" Kara asked feeling confused.

"Let me start at the beginning and then hopefully you can fill in the blanks for me," he replied closing the chart so he could give her his full attention. "When you did not show up for your early morning meeting with the Fleet Admiral, she went a little crazy. She sent your deputy CAG and a small number of guards to find you, have you arrested and confined to the brig until she could deal with you. After searching most of the Capricorn, Karl decided that you might actually be hiding out in your quarters; so he ditched the guards and gained access. I am guessing that he has your code," Avery said glancing at her. When she shook her head in the affirmative he continued.

"He found you in bed and naked. What freaked him was all the wires all over you. He managed to get them all off of you and stashed them in his pocket before he returned his attention back to you. He tried to get you to wake up, but you wouldn't. At first he thought that you had gotten drunk and passed out, yet when he could not wake you up he started to think something else maybe wrong. He made a ship wide alert for medics to your quarters and you were transported here. When you arrived you were unconscious and unresponsive to outside stimuli. I did a CAT scan and then a MRI and could not find anything definitive, yet I could not get a response from you. I reported to the Admiral that you were basically comatose and I had no idea why," Avery said pausing to take a breath.

"And she accepted this?" Kara asked astonished.

"She has no reason to believe I would lie to her; even to protect you," he replied to her question. "Plus she was here for some of my exam and she was quite concerned."

"Having her best pilot basically in a coma was probably unsettling for her," Kara said sarcastically.

"Give her a break Kara," Avery replied. "Anyway; what I found to be of most interest came from the little black box I gave you. Karl managed to keep it concealed and gave it to me once I was alone. What do you know about sleep cycles?" He asked.

"Well just that we dream during REM and that it stands for rapid eye movement, but other than that nothing," Kara said sitting up straighter.

"Ok then let me give you a quick summary and then tell you why what the little box had to tell me was very interesting. When we lay down to go to sleep we enter into a pattern that is defined as a sleep cycle. There are 4 stages of sleep and then we hit REM. A sleep cycle last for approximately 90 minutes and REM occurs at the end of that 90 minutes. After REM you wake slightly and start the cycle all over again. That is why most people only remember the last brief moments of dream as they exit REM. Now this is what I found out about your last sleep cycle and trust me this is unusual. You did not go through the first 4 stages of sleep before hitting REM and there was no 90 minute cycle. You on the other hand went straight to REM and stayed there for an entire 10 hours. That was when Karl found you and took the leads off. You displayed all the other characteristics of REM; accelerated heart rate and pulse, increased brain activity, increased respiration and rapid eye movement. After I did my physical exam and ran all the other test I hooked you back to a monitor and guess what I found? You were still in the REM cycle and still dreaming. Just in case you were wondering, yes this is very unusual. So you want to tell me what you were dreaming about Kara?" Avery asked looking at her pointedly.

Admiral Adama stood beside the bed holding his son. Lee had been in Lifestation for almost two days and there was no sign that he was aware of anything going on around him. Bill looked down at the woman sitting in a chair by his son's bedside holding his hand in her's. No response.

"Dualla why don't you go and get some rest," Bill said softly to the young woman. He gently placed his hand on her shoulder to get her attention.

"I want to be here when he wakes up," she replied glancing back at the Admiral. Bill noticed that her eyes were red indicating that she had been crying. A nurse moved into the space to take Lee's vitals and hang another bag of fluid. Doc Cottle caught the Admiral's eye and motioned for him to join him on the other side of the curtain.

"Do you have any idea what is going on with him?" Bill asked.

"I can't really tell you more than I did when he was first brought in," Cottle replied holding his ever present cigarette. "He is stable but completely unresponsive to outside stimuli. For all purposes he is asleep. I wish to run more test but right now Bill I have no more answers than I did 24 hours ago."

"DOCTOR!! CODE BLUE!! CODE BLUE!! HE IS SEIZING!!"
