I'm sorry.Marcus
: If it weren't for you, I'd be dead.Susan
: It wasn't consciousMarcus
: I don't mind. I love you anyway.Susan
: I know. That's what I'm afraid of.Marcus
: Then I'll have to work on that, won't I? And you know how annoyingly persistent I can be.Susan
: Don't I just! Are you sure about this? I'm not the easiest woman in world to be with.Marcus
: I'm willing to take the risk. If you are?Lyta
: Okay, at this point, I'm going to interrupt. I don't want to see any of this.Susan
: Any of what?Lyta:
The mushy stuff. I'm gonna go. Behave yourselves okay? ('Lyta' disappears)Susan
: MUSHY! We're behaving Mushy???Marcus
: Susan, she only said it to wind you up.Susan:
Yeah, well, it worked!Marcus:
You're beautiful when you're angry Susan.Susan:
Oh my God. We ARE Mushy!Marcus
: Everyone is entitled to be, once in a while.Susan
: Not me.Marcus
: And why should you be any different, Susan?Susan
: I'm unique.Marcus:
Of this I have no doubts.Susan:
Could we save this until later? Please?Marcus
: Nope. I like this. No distractions.Susan
: It's weird with you having control of my body, for a start.Marcus
: I don't have control, per se. But if it makes you more comfy, I won't do it again. Unless you're in trouble.Susan
: If I'm in trouble, I will get us out of it. Clear?Marcus
: Yes ma'am.Susan:
It's my body.Marcus
: I'll be a courteous guest. Will you be as possessive about your quarters?Susan
: Depends. Will you be this annoying?Marcus
: Probably. Maybe you can reform me?Susan
: Sound's like a long job. Don't know if I have the patience for it.Marcus
: I thought you liked a challenge?Susan
: I'll try. (He steps closer)Marcus
: That's all I ask. (She yawns) You're tired.Susan
: A bit.Marcus
: Why don't you move to the sleeping quarters? Get some sleep? We'll be there soon and we'll need all our strength.Susan
: But-Marcus
: You need the rest.Susan
: Mmm.Marcus:
And you're beautiful when you're asleep. (She blushes)Susan
: You don't have to keep doing that.Marcus
: (Grins) Doing what?Susan:
Complementing me.Marcus
: I've wanted to all year. Are you gonna deny me the pleasure now?Susan
: Pleasure?Marcus
: You get all embarrassed and shy. You look down for a second, and then when you look up this cute blush has appeared. Kind of like right now.Susan
: Cute?Marcus
: Yeah.Susan:
Do you know what happened to the last guy who called me that.Marcus
: You mean the time you cleared out that bar. Single handedly? Yeah. Just wanted to see your reaction when I say it. So….?Susan
: So… I like it. Occasionally. I should go. I am standing in a hallway, after all.Marcus
: OK. Should I stay here?Susan
: No, you can come. Just no fooling with the body.Marcus
: Susan, I would never-Susan
: I mean no moving me around, like when you followed Lyta.Marcus:
Oh. Yeah. Right. (He chuckles nervously)Susan:
Tut tut tut! For a unicorn you have a very dirty mind.Marcus
: And how many 30 plus virgins have you known, Susan?Susan
: You're the first.Marcus
: Good, then this is a novel experience for you too.Susan:
Yeah, we should really get back.Marcus
: I guess so. One last thing.Susan
: What's that?Marcus:
I'm curiousSusan:
About?Marcus
: How you taste in your mind. (He kisses her & she melts against him) Mmm. Delicious. (Susan is stunned) Shall we go?Susan
: Hmm?Marcus
: Back to reality…?Susan
: Oh. Yeah. Right. (She snaps out of it & puts on her 'Commander' face. Marcus chuckles.)Thanks to:
