A few days later and Ali was feeling better so Kara decided to take her to the rec room, they had both been cooped up in the bunk room for too long. Kara had just got off CAP and after getting changed into some sweats and the hoddy Lee had gotten her, she took Ali by the hand and led her out the hatch to the rec room, leaving Lee to get some sleep before his CAP. In the rec room she sat down at a triad game, pulling up two chairs so Ali could sit down next to her and was quickly dealt into the game. Once she had some cards in her hand she felt herself begin to relax, she lent forward on her elbows and looked at her cards, as she did she brought the sleeve of her hoody close to her face and took a deep breath. She had left it on their bed the other night and Lee had come in and fallen asleep on it, now it smelt of him and she couldn't stop herself of breathing in his scent whenever she could. She smiled and shook her head, even when he wasn't around he could still distract her.
A few hours later some of the women nuggets walked into the rec room chatting away, they sat down at a table near Kara and Ali and the others playing triad and started to whisper. Not long after they had walked in one of them was pushed forward towards one of the pilots at Kara's table.
"Can I have a word?" she asked him.
The pilot nodded excused himself and walked over to another table with the nugget. He sat down and looked at her expectantly.
"You know Major Adama don't you?" she asked.
"Well he's the CAG so yes I know him but not on a personal level." he replied slightly confused.
"Do you know if he follows the frat regs?" she said shyly.
"Well I can tell you that. No, not for certain people" he said glancing at Kara.
"Oh" she said slightly more confident, "Is he married?"
"Nope, and on this ship I think we would have heard about that sort of thing."
"Engaged then?"
"Not that I know" he said shaking his head.
"Right thanks then" she said getting up and going back to her friends smiling.
The pilot stood up and walked back to Kara's table.
"I think we may have a problem he said as he sat down.
"What kind of problem would that be?" Kara asked staring at her cards.
The pilot relayed back the whole conversation he had with the nuggets, when he finished Kara just laughed.
"So she doesn't know he's taken then?" she laughed but not so the nuggets could hear her.
"No, either that or she doesn't care"
"this is gonna be good, I wonder if she'll make a move when he gets back." Kara wondered.
"Oh I wanna be here if she does" another pilot added.
"Me too" Kara agreed, "so come on then your bet... we have little over an hour to kill"
So all the pilots sat back and began their game again, looking forward to Lee coming back.
