Bliss has come over me... Mom accept us... has given us her blessing...
Silver decided to help out in the kitchen for the day. I needed to do an afternoon job back in the Montressor port.
Now... how will our lives be? What will we do and where will we live? I always liked the idea of making a private delivering service... If I work for another year maybe I'll have enough money for a medium size ship.
Still Silver is a part of my life and I hope he will be for many years so he has a say in this also.
When I came back the place was packet "Hi Jim!" said Mrs Dunwiddie
"Hi mrs Dunwiddie how's the food?"
"Wonderful, what's that on your finger lady?" Oh gosh can she be more into gossip?
"An engagement ring ma'am" I responded
"And who the lucky person might be" She put an emphases on person, like most people she thinks I'm gay cause I'm a tomboy and never really public dated anyone
"Actually..."
"That might be me ma'am" Silver came out of nowhere with various deserts in his robotic hand that was set to have little platters so he could carry them all. "Here ya go" He serves her
"Thank you, so you're the lucky fella?" She says in doubt
"Yes, luckiest man in this side of the galaxy, blast, maybe the whole galaxy" He laughs.
My mind goes blank and I kiss him gently on the lips, some of the other costumers turned their heads in surprise but I don't care "And I'm the luckiest lass in the whole galaxy" I say as Silver puts his organic arm around my waist.
"Well, lass costumers are waiting"
He went back to work.
After hours, we were talking, we were in his room, well it basically became "Our" bedroom, the one upstairs in the personal floor was just for clothes and my solar surfer, and also my letters.
"So what do you want to do?" I ask
"Ya know what I want to do" He kisses me but before I fall with my back to the bed I stop him
"Not now" I laugh "With life... we know we want to sail together"
"I've been thinking about that too, Grace, what do ya say we buy a ship?"
"And then what?"
"We do need to make money for the ship, hire a crew and make a service of some sort, a private business"
"I was thinking maybe a delivery service? It's easy and it allows us to sail very often!"
"It sounds perfect lass" He gets up and goes to the room's closet and takes out a bag "Here's some of the savings for the ship, been gathering around some money from the jobs I had for us to get a ship"
"I also have some money for the ship, we can get an amazing one with all this money"
"We are gonna sail the galaxy in style lass..." He kisses me and this time I fall to the bed willing.
He has his robotic hand underneath my head and the other on my waist, how I've missed his touch. His hand keeps going up and up to my breast and squeezes it gently I gasp in surprise.
He stops kissing and looks at me for permission I smile and keep kissing him. He takes that as an yes and he pushes me up into an embrace as we make out. I gasp for air and take off my sleeveless blouse and start going for my belt as he takes off his shirt. Even though he's big, he's still very attractive and his soft large physic with some muscle mass it's incredibly amazing to lay on top of.
He starts kissing me again the cold metal against my back makes me flinch at first. Silver uses his tools to take off my bra my naked chest is now completely against his own. It feels nice this warmth.
He's in his boxers and I'm in my briefs, I put my hand in his elastic band to pull them down, once he notices what I'm trying to do he takes them off himself. He's naked, I look down and see how big he is already. Even though we did this before I'm having performance anxiety and blush.
He lets out a little chuckle "Calm down lass"
I take his organic hand and place it over my breast "When was I not calm?" I grin and he kisses me again.
He puts his hand in my elastic band and looks at me again for confirmation that I wanted to do it and I just pull them off myself and kiss him.
We re-positioned a little as we kissed so he could enter me, I'm little nervous it will hurt. I haven't done ever since the Legacy. He starts to enter and I flinch in pain, and like our first time he slows down the entrance and I moan in pleasure "Silver..."
He kisses my neck, I gasp when he enters completely my body. He starts pumping slowly so I can get used to him again, the pleasure hits my body in such a way that I never thought possible, this was even better than in the Legacy... we can do what we want... we are together... officially.
"Faster" I gasp and he obeys. This is so good, only him can make me feel this way.
The night was a bunch of pleasure moans and "Silver" "Grace" all over again
I never fell asleep next to him after having sex... but now we could and it fell great
Next day, we told mom our plans, she wasn't trilled but she was happy that in least Silver had more spacer experience than me and so I would be safer.
We searched for some ships in our price range. We decided that the captains quarters needed to be twice as big as normal. There were some ships like that since some captains like to bring their significant other.
And we saw it... It wasn't as big as "The Legacy" but it was amazing... beautiful...
"Uau..." We say together...
"It has big enough quarters for us, we can have 4 crew man"
"This is it, and it's right under our price range... it's perfect Silver!" I exclaim.
"What we call it lass?" He asks
"I don't know..." I'm just in a trance from looking at the ship "And you? Do you have any ideas?"
"Jimbo the first..."
"Your pet name for me?"
"Aye lass, this is gonna be the start of our lives."
I kiss him... We are really doing this...
The next couple of months were a little crazy, we bought the ship immediately and drove it back home mom was NOT amused. She questioned our investment, but when we told her that we still got money.
Captain Amelia helped us get the ship licensed so we could start the business.
It took us a long time to get 4 crew man we could trust but eventually we did. They lived in near by planets to the Monstressor port. Me and Silver opted to live on the ship. Mom didn't like that but she understood that I couldn't live in the inn forever with Silver. I would visit her every time we finished a job. Silver would come unless he had to re-stash the galley with food.
I think she could see I was happy
The jobs weren't long, just bring some stuff to a planet, if we're able we stay there for a day to visit and then leave. It may not be much but it's amazing... just because I'm with Silver... my co-captain.
At first the crew man weren't too keen on having a woman captain and mostly listen to Silver rather than me. Silver would double as a cook. I insisted we get a crew man to cook but he refused, said he liked to cook.
But then a meteor storm hits us and both me and Silver had to take control of the situation. I ordered them around at stirred the helm avoiding most of the meteors without causing significant damage to the ship. After that day they started to respect me...
"Hey mom" I said as I entered the inn trough the back door "Do you have anything for me to tie my hair?" I ask. My hair now reached a little bit passed my shoulders and it was always getting in the way when I sailed. I think I may cut it again but I never have the time...
"Sure here you go honey." She says as she hands me an elastic band for me to tie my hair. She's looking at me smiling
"Is something wrong mom?"
"No it's just... you grew so much... you're more feminine, you're happier, you're engaged"
"If by feminine you mean my hair don't get used to it, I'm gonna do the under buzz cut again."
"It's not just the hair, it's your aura. Have you two decided when you are getting married?"
Over the last couple months she has gotten used to me and Silver being engaged... I dare to even say she's excited.
"Well, we are getting married in "Jimbo the first", and we thought of Captain Amelia to officiate the ceremony."
She shakes her head in disapproval but with a smile indicating she's being playful "A true spacer's wedding."
I smile "Yes."
"So have you given any thought on the attire?" She asks. obviously she's asking if I'll wear a dress.
Even thought I though of wearing mom's dress but maybe I should wear my uniform "I don't know"
"Do you want to wear a dress?"
"You know me mom... I never wore a dress in my life not even as a little girl."
"But do you want to wear one now?"
"Maybe, I don't know... as long as it's not too girly. Something like Captain's wedding dress. She was pretty bad ass still."
"I'm pretty sure I can arrange my old dress."
"You wouldn't mind?"
"Of course no" She kisses my forehead "It's my only daughter's wedding"
"We'll try the dress when I come back from tomorrow's trip." I smile.
"And who will be there at the wedding?"
"Well, Silver and I haven't talked about that. But you, Delbert and the kids will be there. I want Hannah to be there too."
"Have you told her what has been going on?"
"No, I'm gonna write her soon."
"Hello Hannah, sorry to keep this short but I have to part to go on a voyage. I'm gonna be direct
-He came back you were right.
-He's now a free man
-We are officially engaged.
-I want you to be at the wedding.
-The date has not yet been determined. I'll keep you posted.
-I quit my job and made a private delivery service with Silver.
-We are doing well.
I hope you are alright. I only been hearing good things about you and your career, I knew you would do great things after school.
Please reply to this letter I miss you my friend...
Love,
Jim Hawkins"
"Jim! I knew I was right. I'm so happy for you. I know how much you suffered the last year of the Academy.
Yes my career is going great I just been promoted to First mate in the company I'm associated with. Yes I will go to your wedding just give me the indications. Knowing you it will be a true spacer's wedding on your ship.
My love life currently non existent, but don't be sad. Honestly I'm just working too hard. When you get married I may take my vacation leave for a month and just relax.
I'm doing well, family's worried but what can you do when you're a spacer, right?
I miss you also... I hope to see you soon. Come by the house if you're in Walling.
Love,
Hannah Jones"
