Be Careful What You Say

Disclaimer: The usual. I don't own this, I don't own that, don't ask. I wrote this while my friend was chasing me with her little alien friends. Don't ask me for a sequel. I'm not very good with that stuff. Ask me before you write a similar sequel.


Lieutenant Kara "Starbuck" Thrace was trying to enjoy a nice cold shower. She had managed to find a shower stall that was completely empty and had been satisfied to just hear the water, ignoring what was going on outside the shower. She got a HUGE wake up call.

She had just started to wash her hair when the stall opened and closed quickly. She turned around to see Captain Lee "Apollo" Adama in there with her. There was something seriously wrong.

"It cannot be safe in there." He said looking around.

"Whadya mean it's not safe out there?" she asked, continuing to wash her hair.

"What do you mean? You don't know?" He looked at her in disbelief.

"Nope." She gave him her quality smirk, before washing off her hair. A hand stopped her from turning off the spray.

"Everyone. Is. Getting. Frakked. By. Everyone. Else." He said clearly.

"Well, I wouldn't be surprised if everyone wanted you. Both parties included." Kara grinned as usual, satisfied with herself for saying so.

"Well, you are NOT sending me back out there. I just got in here!" Lee complained.

"Well, make like your call sign and just frak someone then. If you can't beat 'em," she started.

"join 'em." He echoed. His hand returned to his side, as he lightly shoved Kara to give him room to shower himself.

"Doesn't the CAG get his own private stall?" Kara asked, eyebrow raised.

"Well, if it wasn't in use for something OTHER than hygienic use, then yes, I would." Lee said casually.

"Would it be offered to a certain someone if they wanted asylum from the apparent birth control fever?" Kara edged closer to her goal. Hopefully, he'd get it.

"Sure. If my dad wanted to use it, then by all means. Though I think he's got one in his room if he wanted to use it." Lee thought for a minute.

That was it. "I could always tell them that you're hiding in here." She started to edge toward the entrance.

"No. Wait. Please." He sounded like he was begging.

"If you're really sure, I'm sure that they wouldn't mind." She felt him grab her upper arms and slam her against the wall of the shower stall.

"You wouldn't dare." He said dangerously.

"You know me, Apollo. I play close to the edge." She easily slipped out of his grip, only to meet the wall again.

"Something tells me that the regular I walk out of here routine isn't going to work." She said casually, stretching out against the wall.

"Well-"

A snap went on behind them. Kara gazed over his shoulder and Lee looked over the other one.


Crashdown and Cally held the camera between them to see the shot. They stifled giggles between them and they passed around the pilots and the other officers in the brig. Revenge was so sweet. But at least Starbuck and Apollo hadn't gotten this. Not yet anyways.

"CRASHDOWN! CALLY!"
