Leena's POV

Commander Shepard decided to go back to the Citadel so he could speak with the council about where to go next. Being the kind human he was Shepard gave the crew the day and night off from the Normandy. In the morning we would return and continue looking for Saren.

The rest of the crew were happy Garrus and I were dating. Cypher said it was about time and I agreed with him. I invited the male turian to spend our time off at my apartment since I had no desire to go out. My boyfriend happily accepted my request and we would just simply relax and enjoy one another's company.

"It feels good to be back here, don't get me wrong I like the Normandy but the Citadel is home"

Garrus, Cypher, and I had just arrived at my apartment.

"What about Earth?" Garrus wondered.

"Don't get me wrong Earth is nice but the Citadel has grown on me" I confessed sitting down on the sofa.

Cypher flew into the bedroom wanting a nap.

"It is a decent place to live" my boyfriend agreed.

He put his stuff down next to mine and joined me on the sofa.

"I wonder how your family will react when they find out your dating a turian"

Back on Earth were my parents along with a brother and sister.

"They don't care as long as I am happy" I reassured him. "And you Garrus Vakarian make me very happy"

The next thing I knew I was on Garrus's lap and the former C-Sec officer was kissing one of the sensitive spots on my neck. My body shuddered in delight as the turian showed off his affection for me. I then jumped when my boyfriend decided to nip me.

"Damn it Garrus I don't need bite marks" I reprimanded him.

"I want to see my marks on your skin, Leena" Garrus purred. "I want my scent on you so other males know you are mine"

He then went back to my neck and he slid his tongue over the bite areas. I know I said I wanted to take things slowly but if Garrus kept this up I might not be able to control myself. The mere thought of this turian and I having sex sounded hot. I had heard from others turian men were very good in bed.

"Don't think I'm not aware of you blushing" Garrus teased breaking my train of thought.

"First of all I was already blushing when you decided to attack my neck, and second I was deep in thought about something else"

"And what would that be?"

Damn him!

Why did he have to be so god damned sexy!

"I uh well I was thinking of when we would eventually ya know"

My boyfriend proceeded to chuckle and he gave me a quick peck on the lips.

"I look forward to making love to you, Leena"

My face went redder now.

"But know when we do have sex it will be on your terms, though I never considered cross-species intercourse, and damn saying that doesn't help now"

From his tone, I could tell Garrus was probably embarrassed from saying that.

To ease his nerves I kissed him and the moment my lips touched his mouth he immediately relaxed. I'm pretty sure I was the first girlfriend he had outside of his own race so his nervousness was understandable.

"Damn it woman you sure know how to calm a man down" Garrus joked when I pulled away from him.

"That was the point of the kiss" I pointed out. "But know I would never do anything to make you uncomfortable, Garrus"

"Leena you're the only woman I felt this strongly for, this is about us, you don't ever have to worry about making me uncomfortable, nervous yes, but never uncomfortable, know I love you"

"Quite a smooth talker aren't you Vakarian?"

My boyfriend chuckled again.

I ended up introducing him to "Tomb Raider" and I watched as Garrus had a blast playing it. It was his type of game due to a lot of shooting enemies. I also got take-out for him since I didn't have any food for turian's in my apartment. I would need to get some whenever he visited. I ended up making a frozen pizza which tasted damn good and Cypher enjoyed it as well.

Afterward, Garrus suggested a show that I might like so the two of us spent several hours watching the television. The show was a thriller and I very much enjoyed that genre. It was night and it was getting late and we had to be back at the Normandy early tomorrow.

Cypher had a bed in the living room and chose to sleep there so Garrus and I could have some privacy. I changed into my nightclothes in the bathroom and when I returned to the bedroom I found myself staring at a shirtless turian. He of course still wore pants.

"Come here Leena" Garrus encouraged.

He had caught me eyeballing his toned body.

My face went red and I did as he asked. Taking one of my hands he placed it onto his chest and I realized he was consenting to letting me feel him and so I did. He indeed was very well built for a turian. Garrus then claimed my lips and a very heated kiss ensued between us. He carefully picked me up into his arms and soon I was beneath him on the bed. His tongue at some point met with mine and that was damn fantastic.

"Try not to make too much noise" Garrus suggested after our French-kiss stopped. He held my body firmly before he used his tongue to lick downwards towards my breasts. Mind you I was wearing a tank top and pajama shorts. His tongue stopped where the tops of my breasts were and very gently he kissed the top of them.

"Tell me do you think a girl would fall for this?" the turian inquired in a husky voice.

"Oh hell yes" I confirmed. "You have no idea how hard it is for me to not want more"

A sexy chuckle came from Garrus. A second later he was on his back and my body was on top of his. It was nothing sexual but simply cuddling.

"I can get used to this" I confessed. "I like being in your arms"

"Having you in my arms lets me know you are safe and with me"

"For a turian who gets nervous your quite a romantic Vakarian"

Garrus chuckled again and before we fell asleep he kissed my forehead.
