Chapter 9

Samuel T.Anders stood looking over the sleeping Lee Adama, his face full of anger and hatred to this man, this man who he had never met, who he would always be compared to by Kara and always come up wanting. Sam would never be the Captain, no matter what he did, he would always be second but if he got rid of Captain Lee Adama then Kara Thrace would be his and there would be no one to stand in his way.

He had been so excited when they managed to escape, hope had blossomed deep within in him. But arriving here things had changed, Kara, well she seemed different at well. Sam had heard all the stories about Kara and Lee. The CAG and the top pilot. Where one was mentioned the other seemed to be attached, he heard talk how they argued one second and where laughing the next, how when she hit him he had hit her back and Sam had heard when they met up again after she left Caprica, they hugged and he kissed her.

Sam was jealous, the two of them have a long history; they had all these memories that no one can break into. They have their own jokes and from what he heard they could just look at each other and have whole conversations. That is what he wanted with Kara it wasn't fair that this man got their first. He had to wipe Lee Adama from her memory and replace it with him.

Cally knew that she should be asleep but being back after what her and Captain Adama had been through, everytime she closed her eyes she saw the dead men, she could smell burning flesh and the fear that she was going to die their alone. Cally still remembered the relief she felt when she heard him speak and the slowly and it see seemed to her painfully opening of his eyes. Those crystal blue eyes that seemed to stare into your very soul.

Cally laughed at herself but she wasn't the only one who thought that to. It was amazing that Captain Lee Adama was totally oblivious how attractive he was, he didn't understand that women and some men stopped as he walked by or that sometimes when a woman was brave enough they would go up and flirt with him but he was always pleasant but never caught onto the fact what they were trying to do? How could a man who shaves himself and stares in the mirror not realise the effect he has on people, even more so now.

He had changed so much from when her first arrived on Galactica before the war, he wasn't a personable guy, and he had a huge chip on his shoulder. Then he became the CAG but he didn't really lead, Cally thought that maybe he hated the responsibility but now he truly is a leader. Lee Adama is a strong man from deep within. He is someone you can trust, but will also stand up for what he believes in no matter the cost and will risk his own life. Whoever Lee ended up with was going to be one very lucky woman. Cally knew it wasn't going to be here, she wasn't strong enough personality wise, he would overwhelm her, not that she would mind but he would eventually.

Cally laughed again and a few crew people that walked passed her stared. There was one woman who would be perfect and she knew that Lee was in love with her, now all Cally had to do was find out how Kara felt and if it was the same, well maybe a little matchmaking, they deserved to be happy if they got a chance to be.

The petite brunette yawned and she could feel herself becoming tired, hopefully she will sleep without any nightmares, but first she was just going to check on Captain Adama. Cally just kept having these urges just to check on him to make sure that he is safe and here. She sometimes wakes up afraid that she left him behind so she checks to just to make sure.

Kara Thrace tossed and turned on her bunk, her mind running over the fact that she was in love with Lee, her dead fiancée's brother. Frak could it get any worse? What the hell was she supposed to do? But not only that she has the Vice frakking President panting after her. God what a mistake that was, sleeping with him and when she had called out Lee's name but did that put him off noooooo he wanted her more than ever.

Then there was Sam, deep down she never thought she'd see him again and she had felt so alone after that argument she had with Lee and needed someone and he was there but no it seems as if he wants a relationship with her but there is no one for her but Lee and he hates her at the moment.

"Boy have I really fraked up this time." She muttered to herself.

Kara had to see Lee and she had to see him now. Sighing she climbed out of her rack, changed to go and see her friend, her best friend, the man she was in love with.

Lee's mind slowly began to wake up, but the hairs on his neck were standing up, something was wrong but he couldn't figure out what it was. His mind was still groggy from the drugs. His eyes finally forced themselves open and standing there was a man, it was the same man that he had seen hugging Kara. This was so the last thing he needed right now.

"What?" Lee started to say his throat dry.

"It's your fault, if you weren't around she would love me." Sam said his eyes filled with fury.

"Kara?" Lee was wondering if he was dreaming, he was sure that this man was talking about Kara.

"Yes Kara, if you weren't around she would love me. She loves you and I can't allow that." Sam said screaming.

Lee's mind had stopped at Kara loved him, did she truly or was he delusional but it gave him hope, the embers in his heart started to blaze, he knew that he could be shot down but at that moment in time he no longer cared.

Captain Lee Adama looked up just as Samuel T.Anders raised the gun at him and at that point Lee saw his life run through his mind and he waited, everything seemed to have frozen in time

Cally smiled as her hand gripped the hatch handle as she pushed the door open. She would be glad to see Lee again, Captain Adama her mind corrected. This was just to make sure he was safe so she could go back to sleep knowing that when she awoke he would still be there.

Kara walked down the long endless corridors of the Galactica, well that is what it seems like. But she froze in her tracks as a weapon discharge echoed through the hallways.
