Thanks for the reviews...or review! LOL! It made me happy. Thanks for those who are reading it. I haven't checked story traffic yet, but after this I will. So...I have nothing else to say. Here's the next chapter!

Over the course of a week, the ARC facility was running pretty smoothly. There had been no anomaly alerts, and Melina was very good with all the Technology. Sarah, thankfully, barely saw her. Melina preferred to hang out with her second-in-command, Juliana; while she usually hung out with Jenny. She eventually cooled down from the whole "Melina/Becker encounter" so she decided to visit the Captain for a bit and apologize for her behavior. On her way down, she could hear talking from his office. Quickly figuring out who it was, she stood by the doorway, out of site, and listened to what the two were talking about.
"Becker, I've asked you every time I've come here, would you please go to dinner with me tonight?"
"Sorry Melina, but I'm busy tonight."
"You're always busy!"
"I'm just a busy person."
Sarah heard Melina sigh then turn to leave. She quickly walked away from the door so she didn't seem suspicious. She saw Melina walk out of the doorway looking a bit disappointed. Sarah waited until she was out of sight before she gave herself entrance to his office.
"Good morning Becker," she said as she entered.
Becker turned around quickly and spotted Sarah. He straightened up and tried to make himself look, if ever more possible, more presentable then he was before while replying, "Oh, hello Sarah. What brings you here this morning?"
"I just came to apologize for my behavior. I've been all snappish at you for a while, and I just want to say I'm sorry.
Becker smiled.
"Apology accepted," he said.
The two stood there awkwardly for a bit.
"I'll see you later than," she said as she turned to exit.
Becker nodded and watched her walk out of the office. He sighed as he slumped into his desk chair and ran his fingers through his hair. This past week hadn't been turning out so good for him.
First, Sarah ether seemed to disregard or not see the note he left on her desk asking her to meet him before Melina showed up. Then, she comes to meet Melina all mad and snappy at HIM! And finally, Jenny comes over and gets in his face about "not seeing" something and "being so blind she's surprised he's a soldier." Was he really missing something or was Jenny getting all up in his face for nothing?
Then after that incident, neither women wanted to talk to him, which really aggravated him because that gave him more time for Melina to come visit him. It's not like Melina was a bad person, it was the fact that Melina was constantly flirting with him was very annoying. He tried to be polite, but had a feeling he was being a bit too polite.
Then his thoughts drifted over to Sarah, the girl he had a mad crush on and couldn't even tell her. Why could he never get her alone? Why was she always busy? Yes, Captain Becker had a confusing life that he needed answers to...and fast.
Alright...It's a super shortie. *dodges pies and stuff.* I'M SORRY! When you write the stories straight without planning breaks in the chapter, things like this happen. I can promis you, though, that the next chapter is longer...by 200 words...*dodges more stuff* SORRY! Okay, enough with my rambling. PLEASE REVIEW! They make my day!
