Never
Pheobe pushed away hard. "Look Chakotay I really don't feel comfortable about this, so I am going to say goodnight." Pheobe left Chakotay in the park.
When Pheobe got home to the apartment she checked her messages and noticed that their was one from Kathryn. Just then she heard a noise from the bathroom, she turned around to see her sister in the hallway.
"Your home late, how did your date go?"
Pheobe stumbled over her words. "Kathryn it didn't go well." Stunned Kathryn turned around. "Why not you were so excited about it earlier, did he only talk about himself?" She laughed until she realized that Pheobe was being serious. Kathryn sat on the couch and looked at her sister. Pheobe took a breath, "I found out his name."
"So tell me already Pheobe, God its not like I know him or anything!"
It was about then that the doorbell rang. "Pheobe are you going to answer that?" Pheobe stood still. "Pheobe hello, Earth to Pheobe!"
Kathryn walked over to the door and opened it. "Pheobe it's your neighbor, he wants to know if you know your landlords number, he has a problem with his apartment."
Pheobe jumped into the kitchen and grabbed a slip of paper from the counter. She wrote down the number and gave it to the neighbor. A few minutes later the neighbor came back and asked Pheobe to help him. Apparently the connection was failing. She agreed and followed him to the apartment.
Kathryn went and got a cup of coffee, just as the bell rang again. "God can't any of these people do anything for themselves? She opened the door and her jaw dropped.
"Chakotay?" He was just as surprised to see her. "Kathryn what are you doing here? "I'm visiting my sister, wait how did you know I was here?"
'I didn't"
Kathryn's eyes got wider than an insect. "No, there is no way that you, Chakotay did you go out with my sister tonight?"
"Yes, but we didn't know it at the time, I just came to apologize to her, I felt bad about what happened."
"She's at the neighbor's house."
"Would you mind if I came in?"
"Actually I would, I mean this isn't my house after all."
Kathryn I think you and I need to talk. "You want to talk with me Chakotay; this is a surprise, why I earth would you want to talk to me?"
Chakotay searched for his words, and looked blankly at Kathryn.
Then from out of the darkness a voice was heard.
"Because he is in love with you Kathryn." Pheobe appeared from out of the darkness. "He told me that tonight. That he wished that he could be with you, that he had never married Seven."
Chakotay's jaw dropped. "Kathryn you and him need to talk, I suggest you get your coat and go back to your place and have an overdo conversation. Kathryn nodded and went to retrieve her coat. While she was gone Pheobe looked at Chakotay. "I didn't tell her and I will NEVER bring it up. You and she belong together, take the second chance that you have and run with it. You deserve one another."
Chakotay hugged her. "Thank you Pheobe, thank you for everything."
"Yeah, yeah, just be good to my sister."
Kathryn stepped out the front door and Pheobe closed the door behind her.
She looked through the window and watched them both walk away. They made it all the way to the corner before they began kissing.
1 year Later.
Voyager's homecoming party was in full swing. Harry arrived with his wife, now completely pregnant. He showed her off to everyone gleaming at the shear presence that soon he was going to be a father. Then from the very top of the stairs he saw two people. One was Chakotay and the other was Kathryn. They made their way down the stairs. When they reached the bottom Chakotay pulled Kathryn in his arms and gave her a long leering kiss. The crew of voyager erupted in applause.
Kathryn looked up at her husband.
"Ladies and gentlemen we have announcement to make."
Chakotay stepped closer to his wife, "We are going to have a baby."
Harry blunted asked, "Together?"
Chakotay laughed as he rubbed Kathryn's stomach. "Judging by your wife Harry, I figured you knew how that worked."
The End
