Lee could feel the passion filter through his body while the water from the shower head poured over his skin and his eyes locked with Kara's across the head; there was something about being caught in such an intimate position by the woman you had been imagining.

Today had been a particularly trying day. To start, there had been an accident down in the hangar. He lost two Vipers for as long as the Chief took to fix them, and Hot Dog had somehow managed to sprain his ankle in the process of watching the two ships being pulled apart. Lee had to make emergency alterations to the schedule. It took him hours. There weren't enough pilots right now to pick up the slack.

In the end, Lee took Hot Dog's CAP rotation himself even though he hadn't slept in over twenty-five hours. That left him stuck in the air with Kat for over six hours, and she would not shut up. Lee didn't say one word the whole time, but she didn't get the picture.

When he finally got back to Galactica, he was called to his father's office. He forgot the Old Man wanted a progress report on how the newly constructed replacement gimbals were working out in the Raptors. When he fell asleep in the middle of a sentence, his father finally got the picture and told him the rest of the report could wait until the morning.

Lee had stumbled to his bunkroom before realizing that his body was caked with sweat and grim from the CAP. Groaning, he grabbed a towel and made his way to the head. He was about to step into the shower when Crashdown's voice carried through the showers.

"Did you hear about Starbuck's little escapade today? She found out that Logan was trying to follow the traditional faith of Gemenon and put together that meant he was at the end of his annual month of chastity. Fraker had made it twenty-nine solar days so what did she decide to do? She walked right into the bunkroom, stripped down to only her skivvies, flopped down in her bunk, and lit up a cigar. She muttered something about the heat being on the fritz and just puffed away. I thought Logan was going to shoot his wad on the spot."

Lee groaned and promised himself that he would reprimand Starbuck in the morning.

It wasn't until he stepped into an empty stall that he realized the image of Kara in that bunk hadn't left his mind. Lee groaned again. He did not need this right now. He was way too tired.

The water beat down on his face, causing him to wince. He felt an uncomfortable tightness in his groan and knew he was going to have to fix the situation. He was too tired to figure out a way to calm himself.

Lee took a quick look around the shower. There was only a handful of stalls that had a clear view inside of his, and he was so worked up that it probably wouldn't take more than a few minutes. Smiling, he shut his eyes and let himself imagine Kara in that bunk, topless and smoking that cigar like her life depend on it.

It wasn't long until he started imagining something complete different in her mouth. He reached down to take himself in hand. The image of Kara's mouth took the place of his hand, and he sped up his strokes. He bit down on his lip to keep himself from moaning her name. Noise always bounced off the walls in here, and he did not have the energy to explain to anyone what he was doing.

Lee's teeth cut into his lip, and he could taste the blood on his mouth. That somehow fueled his fantasy. His imaginary Kara pulled his cock deeper into his mouth and started moaning.

He had no clue why he opened his eyes. He was only a few strokes away from falling over the edge.

The normal reaction would have been to either freeze or pretend like he hadn't been doing what he was doing. Yet Lee felt his hand speed up as the image of his fantasy stared back at him.

After a moment, Kara smirked and stepped under the spray of her showerhead. Lee's eyes could help but scan the length of her body. He really felt for Logan. He knew firsthand what having this tease of a woman on your mind could do.

He was still concentrating on stroking his length when he saw her lips move. It took him a moment to realize she was asking him who he was thinking about. Lee wondered if he should just tell her the truth or if there was a lie he could tell her that she would realistically believe. After a moment's deliberation, he simply mouthed that she already knew.

Kara quirked an eyebrow at him and made sure his gaze had returned to her face before running her hand through her hair. Lee watched as her fingers traveled down her neck to rest on her full breasts. They were slick with soap, and Lee could just imagine what it would be like to feel them in his hand. She had the most perfect pair of nipples he had ever seen.

Lee found himself biting down on his lip again, but this time it was to keep himself from coming. He wanted to see how far she would go.

Kara's tongue darted out to lick her lips just as her right hand slid down her stomach to cup the heat between her legs. She wasted no time slipping a finger deep inside of her.

Lee was captivated by the way her hips countered the thrusts of her hands. He could just imagine how it would feel to have those wonderful hips colliding with his own as he pushed himself as deep inside her as their bodies allowed. She would scream for him then.

He almost lost control the moment he realized her eyes were locked on the motions of his hand. She was watching him like a hawk and that was the inspiration for the way she was roughly rubbing her hand across her folds. Her moans bounced off the walls as she came. Lee felt his own hips begin to thrust as he tumbled over the edge.

The water ran down his body, almost immediately cleaning away the evidence of what he had just done. His hand turned the dial to cold. He needed to cool down if he ever wanted to sleep again.

Lee continued to look at the wall even after the water had gone freezing. He hoped to the gods that this had freaked Kara out as much as it had him. Then, she would run away by the time he finished his shower and they wouldn't have that awkward first conversation. Lee didn't think he could explain this even if he tried.

The water went warm about two seconds before he felt her arms come around his body. Her voice was a husky whisper in his ear. "Was I wrong to think it was me?"

Her hands started going south right away, and Lee closed his eyes. He had really thought the fantasy would end when he finally got off, but it looked like he was going to go another round. "It's always you," he panted as he felt himself begin to rise again.

"I did something naughty, Lee," Kara whispered, her hand moving to the gentle rhythm of her voice.

"I know about Logan."

"Not that." Lee braced his hands against the wall and waited for her to continue. "I pulled rank before taking my shower. I wanted to do it in peace so I cleared the head and locked the hatch."

"No one's going to throw you in the brig for that," Lee said before gasping as her other hand reached down to cup his balls, giving them a light squeeze.

"No but I'm pretty sure fraking the CAG will get me a few hours time-out if anyone realizes that's what I'm doing."

Lee's eyes shot open. Did she just say something about fraking him? He felt her body slip under his arm, and she popped up in front of him. The water from the shower head cascaded around her body. "Well, we'll just have to be quiet then."

Kara's smile widened as she felt his arms pick her up off the ground. She had barely a second to brace her back against the wall before he was sliding himself into her. She bit back the moan that was on the verge of slipping out. This was not how she saw her day going.

"Gods, Kara," Lee hissed, feeling her legs tighten around his waist as she drew him deeper.

Kara leaned her head down the few inches it took to kiss him. As soon as their lips connected, she realized what she had done. The dynamic between them had been fine when they were just getting off on watching each other. Heck, even now that he was fraking her, it didn't feel out of line. But kissing him changed that. Kissing him made it clear that she wasn't in this solely to kill the buzz. Kissing meant emotions. Kara didn't do well with emotions.

Almost as if Lee knew, he let go of her legs. Kara's feet dropped to the ground, and she was about to apologize for taking whatever was going on to the next level. She didn't mean to do it if it meant him pulling back. They could start with fraking and figure out the kissing thing later when they were a lot less on edge.

She realized he wasn't looking for an apology when he gave her that devilish grin and slid his hands down to her hips. His fingers dug into the flesh as he turned her to face the wall of the stall. Kara had just a few seconds to brace herself against the wall before he was pushing into her from behind.

"Harder," she growled, feeling his lips bit down on the flesh of her neck. "Oh gods. Harder."

Lee was happy to oblige. He used his hands to push her thighs apart a little more and slammed in to the hilt. Kara broke almost immediately, but somehow Lee managed to hang on. He reached his hand around her front to start to work her in the same rhythm of his continuing thrusts.

Kara moaned his name over and over again as the orgasm stretched out. Her head rested against the wall of the shower as she started bucking her hips violently against him. It was that struggle that finally made him lose control. Twisting her head to kiss her roughly, he let himself release deep inside of her.

As they both came down, Kara twisted her body to face him. Their lips stayed connected as he finally let himself give in. This was what he had really wanted. Fraking Kara was great and all, but he was a fool to think he didn't want this intimacy.

They were still kissing ten minutes later when the pounding on the hatch door finally reached their ears.

"I think the pilots want back in," Lee said, gently nipping at her lips before pulling back.

"And you're supposed to be getting rest," Kara pointed out. "A cranky CAG is a bad CAG."

Lee rolled his eyes and stepped out of the shower. He wrapped a towel around her body the second she followed, and knowing better, he still found himself gently drying her off. "I'm not tired," he said after a moment.

The pounding on the door got louder as the pilots screamed that they heard someone in there. Lee turned to glance at the source of the noise and when he turned back, he saw Kara was staring at him with that familiar look on her face, the one that said she was about to get her way even if it was dangerous. "What?"

"I can think of a way to help you with that whole not tired problem."

Lee moved his hands away from his body. He was still exhausted even if he couldn't sleep. There was no way he could go another round with a woman like her. He moved to throw a towel around his hips. "I don't think I'm up for it."

Kara rolled her eyes. "I was talking about a back rub."

Lee's eyes lit up. She really was a woman after his heart. "Really?"

"Yeah. I remember the way you used to beg me for them back in Academy when it was the night before a big test. They helped you relax."

Lee checked to make sure the towel was tightly wrapped around her body before leaning in to kiss her again. This time it was slow and sweet. "Two conditions, Kara."

"You name them," she agreed.

"One, you have to wear that towel."

Kara imagined the things he could do to her sanity if she let her naked body straddle his. "Agreed. What's the second condition?"

"That when you're done, you stay for a bit."

Kara felt something tug at her heart, but she pushed it away. They could deal with that stuff in the morning. For now, she was on a one-woman mission to give her CAG a break. Plus, she, too, could use a little time off. The Old Man had just been telling her that she looked a little pale that morning.

Satisfied with the reasons she came up with, Kara unlocked the hatch and pulled Lee past the crowd of very surprised pilots. So much for keeping herself out of the brig today.
