"Okay, so maybe my first impression of him wasn't right." Trinity proclaimed when Neo shut the door to their cabin.

"Maybe." Neo replied, sitting down to take off his boots.

"Oh?" Trinity didn't elaborate her question, Neo knew her too well.

"I don't know. Someone once told me not to trust first, second, even third impressions of people." Neo shook his head.

"Who was that?" Trinity sat down also, unbuckling a boot.

Neo stopped a moment, almost as if in contemplation.

"Apoc."

"Oh. I didn't know you guys talked."

"We didn't, only once outside of the Matrix, and once inside." Neo slid in under the covers, shutting the small lamp off and wrapped an arm around Trinity as she moved in against him. "God, I can't wait 'till we're in Zion. Freedom to spend our time as we like, and to do the things we can't do here."

"Smooth switch of topics. I agree, I'm guessing all -other- activities will have to wait until we get to Zion every time. Morpheus won't complain about us, but Link will, and I do not want Tsunami overhearing us."

"Right. Good point."

~~*~~

"Welcome home."

"It's good to be home." Link replied into his headset.

~~*~~

"I trust you all know where to meet tonight? There is a meeting in the temple, and I hope to see you all. It's a night to relax and enjoy yourselves. I must go inform Commander Lock of my reason for returning so soon." Morpheus turned on his heel and walked down the ramp, the four crewmembers following behind.

"So where you guys headed?" Tsunami asked after Morpheus left once they were off the ramp.

"I'm going to see Zee."

"We're going to- do- something. Not sure yet. Want to walk around after we drop our stuff off?" Neo asked, turning towards Trinity.

"Sure." Trinity replied, pressing the "up" button for the lift.

Walking into it, the group barely fit as six Zionists followed them in. Shifting around to fit, Trinity ended up being pressed into Neo's body, and Link pushed against Tsunami's. Several floors higher, the Zionists got off, leaving breathing room once again. Moving apart for Neo and Trinity was especially hard- the two had had zero intimate contact for four days- two working with Tsunami and two trying to get back to Zion in one piece. As the lift slowed to a stop, Link moved forward.

"Later guys, see you tonight."

"Bye Link." Neo nodded at the retreating back of their operator.

"So what floor you guys on?" Tsunami asked nonchalantly when the lift began its ascension once more.

"This one." Trinity answered a few seconds later as the lift again began to slow down.

"Oh. Okay. Well, I guess I'll see you two later." Tsunami nodded at the pair as the left. Neither noticed the gleam in his eyes as the doors shut behind them.

~~*~~

Bags were discarded, the door was slammed shut. Neo crushed his mouth against Trinity's, not caring for anything but physical contact. Sliding a hand up her back to the base of her neck, Neo barely acknowledged her own arm wrapped around his neck, pulling him closer. Making an invasion of private space, Neo thrust his tongue against Trinity's, pulling her in. Trinity's hands pushed on his chest, pushing him towards the bed blindly. As they reached the bed, Neo was pushed down onto it, while Trinity kneeled down to take off both hers and Neo's boots. Seconds later, she stood up and leaned over him, reveling in the hands encircling her waist, pulling her down.

Making love that afternoon was like dancing on fire and swimming in ice. Damp skin was scorched by the touch of five separate digits pressing against it, digging into it. Calling out Trinity's name into her mouth at the brink of oblivion, Neo rested his forehead against her neck, breathing raggedly. He moved his hand up her torso, feeling muscles flex and twitch beneath the skin, before placing it over her heart, feeling the rapid beat through muscle and flesh. Pausing a moment to watch her chest rise and fall in quick breaths, Neo moved off to the side, pulling Trinity with him.

"What time do we have to be down in the temple?"

"Six hours."

"What are we going to do with six hours of free time?" Neo asked, smiling softly.

"Shower?"

"Don't even say I smell after what we just did." Neo commented, causing Trinity to pause instead to explaining.

Breaking a smile, "No, we can take a shower."

"Together?" Neo asked, lifting his head up from the pillows.

"Why not? We make love, what's so different about a shower?"

"Nothing, I've just, never done it before."

"Technically, you never made love before me either." Trinity pointed out.

"Right. Shower, good, let's just lay here for a few moments though."

"No problem with that."

~~*~~

"Holy shit that's hot!" Neo jumped back from the steam of water in the shower room.

"What'd you expect?"

Neo paused a moment, thinking. "Not sure. Hey, will anyone come in here?"

"Well, let's see, this shower is reserved for us and since it's in it's own room, no one will see us." Trinity slipped passed Neo into the spray.

"Well, when you put it that way..." Neo jumped in behind her, allowing the past week wash off of his body.
