Soon, Kathryn recovered from her momentary sadness and weakness. She stood up, obviously sending a message to Chakotay that she wanted to dance again. Another slow song played, and she quickly melted into Chakotay again.
Kathryn had denied her feelings for her handsome first officer for so long. She felt it all slipping through her fingers as she clung to him. The look in her eyes was unmistakable, she was sure, and his expression mirrored hers. Suddenly, she couldn't stand it anymore. Her arms were already wrapped tightly around his neck. She guided his mouth to hers and kissed him with all the passion that she had wanted to release for so long. The kiss was long, but short. It was gentle and intense. Kathryn didn't really fully understand. She just knew she had waited far too long for this. She pulled away and looked up uncertainly. It was unmistakable, though. The look on his face clearly said that her feelings were reciprocated. Cautiously, she reached up and drew his lips to hers. In her peripheral vision, she saw a few crew members gathered around them in a circle. They looked unsure of what to do, although they seemed dying to talk about what they were seeing.
Another country ballad floated through the holodeck, although Kathryn was a bit too preoccupied to note the irony of its words.
I've got a funny feeling
The moment that your lips touched mine
Something shot right through me
My heart skipped a beat in time
There's a different feel about you tonight
It's got me thinking lots of crazy things
I think I even saw a flash of light
It felt like electricity
You shouldn't kiss me like this unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes and I won't know where I'm at
We'll get lost on this dance floor spinning around
And around and around and around
They're all watching us now they think we're falling in love
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this I think you mean it like that
If you do baby kiss me again
Everybody swears we'd make a perfect pair
But dancing is as far as it goes
Girl you've never moved me quite the way you moved me tonight
I just wanted you to know
I just wanted you to know
You shouldn't kiss me like this unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes and I won't know where I'm at
We'll get lost on this dance floor spinning around
And around and around and around
They're all watching us now they think we're falling in love
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this I think you mean it like that
If you do baby kiss me again
Kathryn had become aware of the music fairly soon into the song. She glanced out the corners of her eyes at the surrounding crewman. She gave a slight shrug and stretched up. And she kissed him again.
