"Let's get out of here," Trick said with a grin.
"And go where?" Kaidan asked.
"Well, part of me wants to drag you back to the Normandy, strip you down and do as many dirty things as we can before we both pass out from exhaustion," Trick said.
Kaidan almost choked on his beer.
"But how about a walk or something," he continued.
"Yeah. A walk. That sounds good."
The two men stood up and began walking towards the elevator.
Trick slipped his hand into Kaidan's, linking their fingers.
Kaidan looked at their hands and then to Trick's face. Trick looked nervous until Kaidan squeezed his hand and smiled.
Trick laughed and pulled Kaidan closer.
"Everyone in the galaxy will know about us within the hour," Kaidan said when he noticed someone snapping a picture of the two of them on their omni-tool.
"Is that a problem?" Trick asked.
"No. As long as Allers doesn't want to interview me, I am perfectly okay with that galaxy knowing that I'm with you."
"I'll make you a shirt. Have Liara distribute pictures of you wearing it," Trick said.
"No. Please no shirts."
"So many shirts," Trick said. "'Property of Commander Shepard, if found, please return to Commander Shepard.' Or 'I helped Commander Shepard save the galaxy and all I got was him.' No, that one's lame. I'll do better."
Trick continued mumbling about what he was going to put on a shirt for Kaidan and Kaidan just smiled.
