AN: My first bit of TOS fic!
Seven: Sophisticated Lady
Tin-Tin has a moment of doubt about her relationship with Alan.
With Alan, it's easy.
With Alan, it's always sweet and funny, two kids playing at being in love. He's strong and bright, a ray of pure brilliance who thinks the sun rises and sets on her. She's the first one he goes to after a rescue, to receive her praise and to let her fuss over his injuries. She's his cheering section, the one smiling and waving from the stands.
With Virgil, though, it's different.
If Alan is lemonade, Virgil is old Scotch. If Alan is sunshine and cotton candy, Virgil is midnight and dark chocolate. With Virgil, she's sophisticated, glamorous, a lady instead of a girl.
She loves Alan, she does–but as Virgil presses his lips to the side of her neck, making her shiver, she wonders if it's time to grow up.
