Trigger
"Daniel?"
"Vala."
"Can I have a kiss?"
"What?"
"A kiss. You know...when you put your beautiful full lips to mine and pull every rational thought from my head. When you take my breath away. Can I have one now?"
"Vala, we're in the middle of a doing surveillance, trying to be covert. I don't think kissing is appropriate at the moment."
"Well, neither is making out in the briefing room right before a briefing, but that never stops us."
"Vala...just no. Stay focused on the mission."
"But I'm nervous."
"No you're not."
"Am too."
"You don't get nervous."
"Yes I do. Happens a lot more than people think. I get nervous when you are about to walk into a hostile situation. A kiss would comfort my nerves right now."
"I'm sorry, Vala. It just doesn't feel appropriate."
"Oh, right then. Not appropriate. Okay. Sorry I even asked. Wouldn't want to ruin the mission. How selfish of me to ask the man I love for a kiss to help ca-"
Vala felt herself being pushed back hard against the doors of the truck, wrists pinned above her head with strong, unyielding hands. Lips crashed against hers in a dominating, searing kiss of surppressed passion and need.
She thought it would never end when Daniel tore his lips away from hers. Her chest heaved quickly against him, and Vala realised she was the only one of them left breathless. One of Daniel's hands came to rest on her chest, his fingers playing dangerously close to the cut she'd made in her shirt.
"Vala." Daniel's eyes were on his hand ghosting just above her cleavage. His tone was determined and serious. It held a commanding edge that channeled a certain General they knew.
"Yes, Daniel." Vala's voice faltered. She swallowed at the sheer power Daniel held over her.
His blue eyes flicked up to hers. They were dark with dominance and lust, but there was an edge there that made Vala's heart melt. An edge that meant Daniel was whole-heartedly serious about what he was about to say.
"Stop distracting me." Daniel ordered, his lips close to hers. The heat radiating off him was overwhelming, and Vala found she could only nod. His eyes searched hers for a moment, and then he pushed off of her, releasing her arms. He moved back to his seat before the equipment, focus once more on the task at hand.
Vala stood motionless, watching Daniel. She had always known there was an untamable darkness to him, but seeing it come through always managed to throw her off balance. It both intrigued and scared her, and always came at the most unsuspecting moments. She never knew what would trigger it in him.
A smile played across her still burning lips. She pushed off the doors, and moved to take her seat next to him. As she passed, Vala ran her hand along his shoulders.
"Thanks for the kiss." She whispered in his ear lustily. She gasped as his hand squeezed her thigh aggressively. His eyes turned to hers, and the dark look was there again.
"Quit it." He growled.
Vala smiled and gave a minute nod.
She might not know the trigger, but she would have a hell of a time trying to find it.
