"Q?" She spoke, not even needing to turn around to know it was him, she could tell from the sound of his voice who it was. "Am I still dreaming?"
"You never were." Janeway turned around to see him propped up on her desk somewhat playfully, twirling a white orchid in his fingers so she knew there was proof they had this conversation already. "And I'm not a trick, or a mental breakdown before you question yourself. Though it you had a mental breakdown over me I would be slightly flattered but I don't expect that. You are a strong woman Kathryn. That's what I love about you."
Walking back to her desk she rested her hands on top the smooth surface looking back at him. "You promise me this is really real?"
He smiled at her, his playful nature seeming to have returned in full even after his 'death'. Then again he was omnipotent again, it was hard not to feel 150%, though she didn't have to know half of the reason he was so chipper was because he had his powers back. As far as Kathy should be concerned his was just elated to be 'home'. That was just as much true, keeping him away from Emily and Amelia would have been difficult, even in death, keeping him away from Kathryn, impossible. Leaning a little closer to her from the desk he flashed one of his impish grins, Q might have been all powerful and had an IQ above anything else in the universe but his personality was much like a school boys, always up to some sort of mischief. Janeway hated to admit it was one of the things she was attracted to. Besides under all the ego and arrogance was an honest man with a good heart. A man who made her laugh, smile, and who was capable of quoting more authors than she could possibly comprehend. "You have legs for days or as Tom says nice stems." Q chuckles about that comment still. Why on earth had Tom yelled that to Torres? She could have crushed his skull but apparently it was working for them. "and I can't keep my hands off your back end. Why? I don't know it's a human thing I think." He slapped her ass lightly with a devilish grin. "And if this was a dream I wouldn't be so rude because you would want to remember me at my best and not my worst so eat that up Captain Hotpants." These were all the things that had crossed his mind but as a mortal he had learned to keep that big mouth of his shut. Kathryn could kill him when he was mortal, now he could snap his fingers and save himself against the wrath storm called captain Rageway. "And don't bother trying to hurt me, I'm hard to kill."
What happened next Q hadn't expected, in fact he was surprised when Janeway leaned in and pressed her lips against his. Shouldn't she be putting her hands on her hips and giving him the death glare for being rude? Rather than sit there in a state of shock and awe Q kissed her back seeming to set something off on her as she moved closer to him and pressed her chest against his. Don't get him wrong, making out with Kathy was exactly how he wanted to spend his nights but he hadn't been expecting her to be so 'forgiving' to his little tangent. When they had transported him to sickbay after his death Janeway had kissed him wanting nothing more than to have Q open his eyes and kiss her back, now that he could she wasn't going to let something as little as Q's snarky comments stop her. If you didn't love someone at their worst you didn't deserve them at their best. The sensation of his lips against hers, his breath against her mouth, his hands sliding down her back and holding her closer to him, the sensation of his heartbeat against her chest. It was everything she had lost, everything she had wanted to get back, everything she had fought for. She had refused to let him go in the sickbay, she had tried reviving him even after the doctor called out his official death. Sending his body off had been the hardest thing she could ever do, watching that torpedo case float off, go back to her room any lay in her bed alone knowing the one person who made her feel better on her worst days was the person they had just left behind. Janeway started crying again, fighting against it as Q bit her lip lightly and pulled back holding her shoulders. "Are you alright?"
"No." Janeway took in deep breaths trying to calm herself down. "I watched you die. I tried to save you. I lost you." Q brushed away her tears and felt a little bad the continuum had let him hang in the wind like that for so long.
"But I'm here now, and I'm not leaving you again." He had to admit getting his immortality back wasn't as great a gift as he would have liked. His powers on the other hand, that was nice but the thought of living billions of years after she was gone. If Kathy thought it was hard to have lost him then she would understand that knowing he was going to live every day losing her with the passing of each day would be just as horrid. "I'm sorry they put you through that Kathy." He pulled her in close to him again and wrapped his arms around her placing a kiss to her cheek only to have her lock lips with him again. Again, making out with her, not the worst thing to happen after coming back from the dead. Q leaned back a little making Janeway follow him up onto her desk. He was starting to like where this was going. After all last time he had seen any action not involving a phaser had been almost nine month back before Amelia had been born. Try to get 'lucky' with a baby in the room was impossible. Any humanoid males who had discovered a means to doing so could consider themselves close to Q status with their powers of persuasion. Laying her back against her desk Q felt her pull up on his uniform, not really the easiest things to get out of when you were in the mood. They were likely designed with that in mind. Snapping his fingers he recalled he now had the power to change all that. Jaeway hadn't even noticed the transition from her starfleet uniform to her silky pink spaghetti strapped nightgown, Q changed up into his red satin sleepwear. He always was one for the finer things in life after all. "Kathy, this is going to be the second time I have seduced you in your ready room. Ready room indeed, this seems to be my good luck charm." He finally spoke up before placing kisses along her neck and collar bone.
"The night shift is already on the bridge for the night." She reminded him and pushed him back, as much as she would have loved for this to continue here and now wasn't the best time. Even if Janeway was willing to stop so she might set a good example for everyone on the ship Q wasn't too keen on holding back. He moved his lips over to her shoulder biting at her skin lightly and making it hard for her to push up on his chest. Engaged or not, captain or not, she had set Tom and B'elanna straight over showing their affections in public. She had been serious about being respectful, what they did in their quarters was their own but what they did on the rest of her ship was her concern. She held herself with the same rules and regulations. Besides even if she wasn't on her shift she was still on the bridge considering the bridge was just outside those doors. "Q." She spoke up again, her breath catching in the back of her throat when he grabbed her wrist and pinned it down over her head. Q still ignored her nipping at her neck and pausing a moment to snap his fingers again.
"There, problem solved. Now you can still set a good example for the rest of starfleet." He spoke quietly into her ear before sitting up a little and smiling down at her. "Besides it would be a little weird if you started moaning and groaning, as far as everyone is concerned I'm still dead. Poor little Harry Kim wouldn't be able to focus on playing captain."
"Just what did you do?" Uh oh, she had that tone of voice again that she got when she was afraid he did something bad.
"Oh nothing horrible, I just pulled this room out of phase and time with the rest of Voyager. I'll put it back to normal afterwards." He purred in her ear again brushing his lips over her neck. "What, did you think I did something worse than that?"
"No, I just remember what happened the last time you were a Q and got me alone in this room while I was vulnerable." She raised a brow and looked back at him as he sat up again with that devilish smile of his face.
"Amelia happened." That hadn't been such a bad outcome in the end. Even if that little baby defied nature by staying awake long after she had fallen into a sleepy trance that made her look a little like a zombie who started crying the second you tried putting her down in her crib. It was both their faults really for coddling her as a newborn and almost never putting her down, now she expected attention constantly. "Afraid Amelia and Emily will get a little sibling?" Q ran his fingers lightly down her side making Janeway flinch a little. She was fairly ticklish even if she tried not to admit it and he tried not to poke at her too much in front of others though it could have been entertaining. If you so much as reached for her side just under her rib cage she would squirm without even being touched.
"No, because you wouldn't dare." He was smarter than that, Q or not if he did Janeway would have found one of those weapons from the continuum and at least made him contemplate the danger he had put himself in.
"Oh, I don't know. I could start my own continuum then. Emily, Amelia, maybe six or seven other kids. I would call it the J continuum." Q teased as Janeway rolled her eyes at him. "It's a good idea don't roll your eyes at me. Just think, I would be the founding father of a new continuum and we would have much more fun than the Q continuum." He leaned back over her and kissed her on the lips.
"I'll remind you of that when your girls are teenagers." She teased back. He wasn't unaware of human females and their unpredictability once they hit their teen years. That was going to be a trip and a half. Still that was a long way away, he could enjoy two adorable little girls for several years before he devised a proper way to repel boys away from his darling little angels.
"That is why my dear Kathryn our next one would be a boy." He mussed actually wondering if giving a male Kathryn's temperament could ever be a good idea. He had already met a grown version of Amelia and being at the receiving end of her anger had been frightful. Those damn Irish women were fiery little things, Kathy was so full of fire herself. Even passing half of that to a male would be tempting fate. "Besides I think I surpassed my quota for progeny already." He had been allowed to make one, but ONE hybrid child and that had been Amelia. They didn't blame him for Emily but the fact that there were now two Q offspring in existence put them all on edge and before coming back to Voyager Q was forced into a serious conversation with the others. Both Emily and Amelia had to be held at high standards, they had to learn to behave themselves or one or both would have their powers stripped from them. A fate Q didn't want to risk. Removing them from the Q Continuum could re-spark the civil war and prove Q was wrong about spreading compassion through the ranks.
"Yes, so have I." She commented, not because having two children was already a handful for her but because two children in the delta quadrant was a handful for her. Besides as Q once brought up, she wasn't getting any younger.
"Yes, five kids is a lot." Janeway furrowed her brow wondering what the hell he was counting. Where had he pulled these other three mystery children from? Unless he was counting Rowley into the equation, and himself, maybe even Tom since he acted like a child sometimes. "You know, Emily, Amelia, Tom Jr, Kathryn Jr, and Bob." Q gave her a wicked little smirk only to be hit him in the chest.
"Don't you even..."
"Ouch you hit like a girl Kathy." He grabbed his chest pretending she had hurt him. She always got angry when he brought that up. Raising a finger he put it in front of her face. "Just remember who's on top." Tapping the end of her nose his smile became a little more sincere.
"Just remember who knows how to fire a phaser better, thirteen rounds of velocity 12/1 as I remember it." She pointed out how poor he was with a phaser or really most combat situations.
Q lowered himself a little closer to her again. "I can think of some other things I would like to get thirteen rounds in with you." He pressed his lips against her's again smiling when she didn't try to fight him off or stop him. He should really try to die more often if it got her to be a little more affectionate towards him. Sliding his hand back along her side he got to her leg slowly walking the fabric of her nightgown up her thigh with his fingers until he reached bare skin. Despite their little playful banter and make out session Janeway had reached down and caught his hand to stop him from any further opportunity he would like to take. Q caught her hand again and pinned it back over her head, maybe he should invest in handcuffs or shackles but really the thought of putting her in something like that bothered him. She was too 'spirited' to be restrained. "Would you consider it strange if I said I just want to play with your body." He looked back up at her seeing her blush a little, her cheeks taking on a bright red color. "I promise I won't break you."
"You just came back from the dead, is it really a good idea?" She panted a little.
"Kathryn you started it you little tease." Sitting up a little herself she kissed him again running her tongue over his teeth, that was a good enough answer for him. For a little moment longer he got lost in her taste and leaning her back against the desk until she was firmly in place. Wrapping on of his hand over her breast he squeezed it gently shifting her beneath him and moving his lips back down along her neck and shoulder then to her collar bone. "Need I remind you foreplay with a Q can last decades?"
"Need I remind you we have two children who need parents for the next couple of decades?" Yes that would be a problem actually, especially for Amelia who was just starting to eat things like applesauce for the first time and only let Q feed her because his funny faces and noises he made convinced her a spoon wasn't going to attack her. All that practice tormenting Kathy had actually paid off.
"Point taken." He went back to kissing her along her chest and trailing down to her stomach before pausing again. "I'll cut the time down by ten in that case." Q raised one of her legs kissing her knee and moving down along her leg placing kisses on her inner thigh. Janeway clenched her hand into firsts feeling his warm breath over her. She arched her back slightly feeling his tongue slip into her, her eyes rolling back a little as he reminded her why she had conveniently gotten so 'sick' nearly every day at noon when he had his break from sickbay and went to go 'lay' down. Then again hormones and an increased sex drive had also been to blame as well. The only drawback now was when she reached over her head to grab a pillow all she had was hard solid desk. Groaning a little Janeway took in slow deep breaths. While he continued she slowly moved up along the desk grabbing onto the edge and holding onto it letting out another moan. For never having done this with anyone else he certainly was good at it though Janeway was still convinced he only said she was the first being he had mated with to make her feel special. He certainly didn't need to do that, especially since he was well aware he had not been her first sexual partner.
"Oh god, Q." Her voice was breathy as she contorted a little and making Q laugh to himself.
"I have been called god like before but I think you are the first person to actually call me a god." He wiggled his brows at her. He felt like the could really fight each other, they were like cats and dogs, but in the end they always made up like rabbits. Well not always, more so they made up like adults who had learned little lessons but it was more fun to make up like rabbits. "Feel any better Mrs. Q?" He asked her as he moved back up her body pulling the hem of her nightgown up with him.
"Mrs. Q? What on earth are you talking about Mr. Janeway?" She teased him back, they already had this conversation once before. As much as he wanted it to happen she wasn't going to be Captain Q, Janeway was a good enough name already and besides Emily and Amelia were both proper little Janeway's already.
Q pulled his pants down a little as he kissed her chest, a smile fixed on his lips when she tried to 'argue' with him again. He liked keeping her at least a little distracted with their playful arguments. A battle of wits, a show of affection, and of course a little nocturnal activity. That was their relationship in a nutshell. "This." He commented pressing her leg against his body and sliding up into her. She grabbed a hold of the back of her desk again, her head titled back as she let out a little gasp. "Feeling better yet?"
"Yes." She gasped as he thrusted into her slowly, his hand fixed on her leg as he rocked into her. Q supported his weight with his free hand planted down on the desk beside her. Leaning in closer he rested his forehead against hers and closed his eyes a moment listening to her moan. Slowly he picked up his speed, Janeway's hands moving from the desk and grabbing onto his shirt, the fabric wound around her fingers as she moaned into his ear. Q dropped his head against her shoulder breathing heavily against her smooth skin as he continued to pick up his pace. Every time she took a breath, every time she uttered a little cry it only managed to excite him more and drive harder into her until her hand moved up into his hair and grabbed onto his locks. Hair pulling wasn't something she normally did but he wasn't going to stop her now. Resting his teeth against her shoulder he tried kissing her a little, his hips still swinging into her as those kisses turned into nibbles and soon Q just bit down making sure not to bite her too hard. She didn't necessarily like it rough but it was difficult to resist when she made noses that made him feel somewhat predatory, some more primal long forgotten part of his Q nature waking up. "Oh." She squirmed under him feeling the tension build up as her grip in his locks tightened, her head falling back again while she took in deep quick breaths. "Q." Her tone of voice was alluring, hypnotic, only making Q race for the finish line. He had to hold out, keep himself in total control. There was nothing more embarrassing than finishing before she did though since he was no longer a mere mortal man that wouldn't be so much of an issue anymore. "Q."
He loved it when she started crying out his name, at least she hadn't eve said someone else name. If she screamed Mark he might have jumped up and walked away. Not that it would be her fault but during something like this you didn't want her to think about another man. Q tried to make a witty remark but found himself a little too short of breath to speak. At least until he noticed her fall silent, no longer breathing. It was fairly normal for her before she reached her climax. All at once that tension came to an end, breaking free from the flood gates and making the captain cry out again, a lot louder than she had before. Q couldn't help but smile a little as he finally let himself go to lose his perfected tempo and devolve into sporadic jerks and thrusts. Letting go of her leg he wrapped his arms around her partially lifting her off the desk as he reached his own climax and groaned into her shoulder. After hitting his peak he slowed down kissing her on the neck lightly and setting her back down against the desk so he could catch his breath. "Kathy." He groaned as he pulled out of her and just let himself drape over her, his head rested against her shoulder still. "Did I break you?"
She laid there a moment pulling her fingers from his hair and resting her hand on her chest and she tried to settle down a little more. Still trying to remind herself that this afternoon she had thought she would never see him again and then they had this moment alone together. Reminding her just how much she loved him and how much he could make the otherwise proper captain anything but. He drove her a little crazy but in a way she liked. "I think..." She paused taking in another breath. "Just a little." She laughed moving a hand up and resting it on his head, her fingers playing with his hair. "As captain I am giving you the order to at least get me to take a little time out of my busy schedule once a week for this."
"So I can show you all the tricks I can do with my photon torpedo?"
"Engage." She laughed kissing the top of his head.
"Now do you remember why you like me so much?"
"Oh, I like you for more than just this." She smiled as Q sat up and looked down at her. He brushed his nose against hers feeling more than content to just hold her for a little while longer. "So what's the score on this one Captain? If the point mine."
"I'll say." She laughed again, her smile fading when he pressed his lips against hers once more.
"Computer make that a note, round one to Q. How about the next twelve rounds now?"
"Well, I don't know about twelve more rounds but...if you insist on making this a competition to see who wins then I insist we see it through until we have claimed a victor."
Q pushed himself up a little and chuckled. "I love it when you get competitive." He kissed her again moving back to her ear. "So round two then?"
"Engage."
