Enjoy and review!

Kelly took Joker's hand and smiled. While she knew that all three of the women had wanted him to pick them, she had somehow known in her heart that Joker would pick her.

Mirandas face went from surprise, to disgust, and then to slowly to pure rage. She gave Kelly her most evil glare and then stormed out. As she left Kelly could hear her muttering how much of a fool Joker was.

Tali was staring at Shepard, who gave her the slightest of nods. Tali nodded in reply and then slipped out. Kelly smiled slightly. Of course, she had been suspecting that there was something between them. The small things she had noticed, the way Shepard lit up whenever Tali was in the room, or that special smile whenever he thought no one else was looking. It broke Kelly's heart, but Shepard was already spoken for. Amazing that Miranda didn't know.

Joker snapped Kelly out of her reverie. "So... how is this going to work?"

Kelly turned her focus back to Joker, who she could tell really wanted to ask questions but was trying his hardest not to. She grinned, and Joker did the same.

"Give me some time, one week at most, and I will find you the perfect woman for you, whether it be human, Asari, Quarian, or Krogan." Jokers look was priceless. "I'm only joking!"

Shepard waved for everyone to leave the mess hall. "Okay guys parties over back to work."

As the crew started to leave Shepard pulled Kelly aside. "You will find him a girl right for him? I've talked with Joker about this stuff too, and while he may not have told me as much stuff as you I can tell that he is really hoping that this will work out." He looked her straight in the eyes with his Shepard stare. One that made her knees weak. "I don't want him to be hurt. Not again."

"I- I... promise," Kelly whispered. With Shepard this close she had to fight the urge not to kiss him. Her face was beginning to turn red. In her head she kept telling herself that Shepard was already interested in Tali. But that beautiful face!

Shepard grinned, as if he knew what she was thinking. "Good." And with that he was gone. Kelly let out a deep sigh. Thank goodness. Another few seconds and she just might have...

"You know hes Tali's. Don't you." Kelly turned startled, to see doctor Chakwas leaning up against the door to the medical bay.

"Y- yes. I've noticed. But it wasn't apparent to me until just now."

Dr. Chakwas chuckled. "Its always thrilling to see young love, or I guess in your case young unreturned love. There are many other men in the galaxy Kelly. Granted they aren't Shepard, but you can't win them all."

"Yeah..."

Seeing that this topic of conversation was uncomfortable for Kelly, Dr. Chakwas changed the subject, motioning for Kelly to come into the medical bay. "So what do you have in mind for Joker? I am very curious, as is the rest of the crew."

Kelly grinned mischeviously. "Leave that to me."

"Any ideas right now?" Dr. Chakwas asked asked? Sitting down she reached for her bottle of Ice Brandy and offered Kelly a drink, which she declined.

"I have a few ladies in mind," Kelly replied, "Don't you worry. I will find the right lady for Joker."

"What if this lady doesn't want to be with Joker? What if her family doesn't want her to be with Joker?"

Kelly laughed. "Why whats the worst that could happen? It's not as if Jokers love will cause an intergalactic war."

The days went by quickly. Joker kept himself busy at the helm, but he thought about what Kelly had said constantly. At least talking to EDI and steering the ship helped him to forget it, sometimes. He wanted to ask Kelly every time he saw her what her progress was, but he was patient, and he knew that she would keep her promise. She had assured him that all of her time not spent working at her terminal and helping other crewmembers was spent finding the perfect girl for him.

EDI was having a blast pestering Joker about the subject. The other day she had even asked if she was a women if Joker would want to date her. Joker had waited just a tad bit long to answer, which had caused EDI to guffaw so loud that Shepard had come up to ask what was so funny. He had rolled his eyes when he heard what it was all about.

The crew had gotten wind of this, and later that night Garrus had played a prank on Joker, having a hologram of a beautiful woman with EDI's voice visit Joker while he was trying to sleep.

He was taking it all in stride though. Because he knew that Kelly would keep her word. And he would get both EDI and Garrus back. Oh how he was looking forward to it.

For her part, Kelly was hard at work trying to find the woman for Joker. She messaged her contacts at GalaxyMatch and gHarmony, and her friends on the Citadel. She narrowed the list down once, twice. Miranda was fairly quiet for the most part. Jack had returned to the shuttle, and she too had been fairly quiet, well at least for her. However Kelly suspected that one or both of them were up to something.

After a week, Kelly felt that she had finally found the perfect woman. Elated, she rushed to speak with Joker. However, when she went to speak with him she learned that he had gone to the Citadel with Jack to do an errand. Thinking nothing of it, she and the rest of the crew went to sleep.

The crew would be in for a shock the next morning.

Sorry that this update took so long, just been really busy.
