A/N sorry it took so long but things have been hectic at school, some language used in this chapter that some people may find offensive sorry if you do but it fitted with the scene.

Dee and Anders revenge plan:

a) Turn the other pilots against the relationship.

Anders walked onto the flight deck with a mischievous smile on his face. Spotting some pilots hanging around one of the vipers, he headed over to make some trouble.

"Hey guys you heard about Apollo and Starbuck?"

"How could we miss it, after all they were snogging a few feet away!" one of the laughed.

"Well aren't you worried about preferential treatment or anything?"

"Why would we be worried about that? Apollo ain't done anything like that so far as I heard."

"He did make me take Starbuck's shift a few days ago." one of the nuggets piped up.

"See it's already started and that's before they were together."

Anders didn't notice the Chief walk up behind him, but the other pilots couldn't miss the pure anger on his face.

"Starbuck couldn't do her CAP because she had been up all night helping out a friend, now I'm not surprised that the CAG stopped his pilot from flying so they didn't crash the viper because they were too tired. I don't see a problem with their relationship, and I bet that their both going to be harder on each other because of it not easier." He seethed.

All the other pilots nodded in agreement, and Anders quickly slipped off the flight deck.

Plan A failed.

b) Seduction and jealousy.

Dee walked into the rec room and grinned as she saw Lee sitting at a table playing triad with Helo, Cally and some of the other pilots. Kara was sat on another table facing Lee writing on some sheets.

"Come on Kara, come and join us." Lee pleaded, pouting at her.

"Some of us can't ask Daddy for an extension on our reports" Kara said pouting back.

"I could..." he started but was interrupted by Dee sitting down next to him.

She was dealt into the game and Lee buried himself into the game completely ignoring her. Then a few minutes later, Dee leaned forward to make her bet and as she sat back again she put her hand on Lee's knee. He tensed at her touch, but still ignored her hoping she would just get bored. However she didn't give up, in fact every now and then she would slide her hand further and further up his leg. When her hand was laying halfway up his thigh she lent across and whispered seductively in his ear, "You like that don't you. I bet Kara never does this for you."

Lee sighed, turned to her and while pushing her hand off his leg whispered, "No cause she isn't a desperate slut."

Dee pulled back as if she had been burnt, but couldn't help but smile satisfactorily at the look of pure jealousy on Kara's face. Lee noticed this too and bit his lower lip, sending a silent plea that he hoped she would understand. When she looked in his eyes she seemed to relax, she trusted him and knew he wouldn't do that to her.

"Kara, come on. I'll ask Dad to give you an extension." Lee said, smirking nervously.

"Alright, but if I get in trouble for this you're sleeping outside the bunk room tonight!"

Lee's smile grew as she got up and wandered over, he pushed back his chair so that there was space for her to pull up another chair and lent back. Kara had another idea though, gracefully plopped herself down on his knee and looked at his cards. Lee just smiled, wrapped his free hand around her waist and kissed her temple. After a while Lee absentmindedly started to stroke Kara's thigh as they whispered to each other about how to bet, and when they weren't whispering Kara lent back against Lee and they chatted comfortably with the others. After watching this for a few minutes Dee slammed her cards down on the table and stormed out the room.

"What's wrong with her?" Cally asked.

"Maybe she doesn't like being rejected" Helo mumbled, getting a few snorts from the others.

Kara just shrugged, "Maybe she should keep her hands off other people's men!"

"Oh I'm your man now am I?" Lee exclaimed in exaggerated surprise, grinning from ear to ear.

"Well aren't you?" she asked innocently, leaning in and kissing him.

Lee relaxed into the kiss and smiled as they pulled away slightly, "Well if you put it that way"

Everyone around the table laughed and then the game continued, going on late into the night.

Plan b failed miserably.

c ) make them hate each other.

Lee stood behind the podium briefing the pilots, Kara slouched in one of the chairs listening to him, Dee and Anders sat at the back in the shadows no one seemed to have noticed they were there. When Lee had finished giving out the everyones pairings for CAP it was their turn to make trouble.

"Why did you put Starbuck with Hotdog everyone knows he's an ass to fly with, surely you'd put her with someone else." a voice came from the back.

Lee peered at the back, but didn't manage to see who had shouted, "because she is a good pilot and I know she can handle it"

"Yeah but still you could have paired her with one of the younger nuggets anyone would think you didn't care." another voice came from the back, still Lee couldn't see who it was.

"And you put her on another CAP 2 hours after her first one with Hotdog. So much for preferential treatment." the other voice followed quickly.

Lee sighed, "Look if Starbuck has a problem she can come and see me, dismissed."

The pilots crowded out, Dee and Anders managing to slip out unnoticed in the crowd, leaving Kara and Lee alone together.

"You are alright with it Kara aren't you? It just you were the only one that I thought could cope with it. I'd do it myself but I haven't been cleared yet." Lee blurted.

Kara smiled, "Yeah, it's ok, just don't make a habit of it."

She walked over to him, wrapped an arm around his waist and they walked out together.

3 hours later, after Kara's first shift, she wasn't so happy. She slammed open the hatch to the rec room, and slumped into one of the chairs. Lee watched her and seeing the angry look on her face decided that he should talk to her before she ended up planting her fist in someones face.

"Kara are you alright?"

"What the frak do you think, I just spent the last 3 hours flying with one of the worst pilots in the fleet, listening to him talk through his ass."

"I'm sorry" Lee couldn't think of anything else to say.

"What are you fraking sorry for it's not like you called me a whore this time!" Kara shouted turning some heads.

"Kara you know I'm sorry about that, why can't you just leave it alone, why do you always have to bring it into every argument." Lee shouted back, making more people turn to look at them.

"Maybe if I hadn't had to fly with Hotdog, I might be in a better mood so wouldn't bring it up!"

"You said you were fine with it... you know what I'm not gonna argue with you Kara, just don't get yourself locked in hack!" Lee stormed out leaving Kara fuming at the table. After a while she stormed out as well and went to beat the hell out of the punch bag until she was back on CAP. Dee and Anders smiled at each other from their place in the corner, it looked like plan C was working.

Lee was in the bunk room staring at the top of his rack when he heard about the attack, it was about half way through Kara's second CAP when the Cylons hit. He ran all the way to CIC, arriving out of breath.

"What's going on?" he asked anyone in general.

"About 10 Cylons, Starbuck and Racetrack are engaging now." someone answered him.

"What about the other fighters?"
"They had problems launching, they should be there in another few minutes."

Lee nodded back and then lent on the main console listening to the Pilots, starting to rock backwards and forwards slightly. Dee watched him from her station and began to feel sorry for him, as she saw his hands begin to turn white struggling to keep himself together.

After a few moments of just battle instructions and warnings, Lee heard Kara say, "Guys we've got more on the way, everyone go back they must have all finished jumping by now, there's to many of them. Everyone back to the Galactica."

"Starbuck aren't you coming?" one of the other pilots asked.

"No go on I'll cover your back." she said, adding quietly at the end "you all have things to go back for."

Lee heard the regret in her voice and knew she was talking about the fight that they had had. He closed his eyes fighting back the tears, the he looked up, he knew what he had to do. He walked over to Dee and leaned over her console.

"Let me talk to her," he ordered though it sounded more like a plea than an order. Dee handed him the headset and he sighed before he began to talk.

"Starbuck this is Apollo." when she didn't reply he just continued, "Kara please don't do this... I love you." that shocked many people in CIC, who knew that they were in a relationship but never knew it went that far.

Kara sighed, "Frak it," she whispered on the verge of tears, "I love you too Lee." After a pause she seemed to pull herself together and said, "Galactica this is Starbuck permission to land."

Permission was granted and Lee flew out of CIC down to the flight deck as Kara got herself out of her Viper. Lee was waiting for her and pulled her into a massive hug as soon as her feet hit the floor.

"Please don't ever do that to me again" Lee whispered.

Kara just simply shook her head and held him tighter to her. This was the only answer that Lee needed and he gently pressed a kiss to her forehead, pulling her closer determined he was never going to let her go.

Plan c failed, and after watching a distraught Lee in the CIC Dee didn't think she could do this anymore.

A/N Not sure if there is going to be anymore revenge plans it's getting quite hard to think them up, we'll have to see.
