27. Obsessed:

Taz was obsessed with killing, especially robots. Everyone just assumed that it was her violent nature that made her want to kill every toaster in sight. Others thought it was payback for what they had done to her family. While it was those reasons, it was more. The real reason she obsessed with killing robots was because of what they had done to Up.

3. Subtle

Her accent was the sweetest thing Up had ever heard, even as she screamed obscenities. Her glare that was meant to turn men to stone only made him melt. Her choppy, short hair was supposed to make her seem less feminine, but Up found that her hair framed her face perfectly and highlighted her every beautiful feature. Her smirk, intoxicating. Her tight tank top, teasing. Her scars, mesmerizing. Everything about Taz made Up's heart stop, including the subtle things, Especially the subtle things.

44. Pretend

To be with Up was the hardest and easiest thing for Taz. Easy because he was her best friend and she enjoyed every waking second with him. It was difficult because she had to ignore her feelings for this man and pretend she wasn't in love with him.

12. Broken

"I'm not broke, I'm just a broken-hearted man" -The Script

Everyone knew that after Up received his famous injury, he became a broken man. He was no longer the ruthless, tough, fearless commander everyone knew and loved. He became a soft, weak, broken man. Before Up became injured, Taz was passionate and tough, but logical. After Up's injury, that's when she lost it.

She became permanently angry, trigger happy and impatient. Other people didn't realize it, but Taz was broken just as badly as Up, if not worse. Taz didn't break immediately, she broke watching Up break. And it torn her heart in half every time she saw him. Up broke because of his injury, but Taz didn't. Taz broke because of a broken heart.

21. Get Up

Beep- beep- beep- beep

He reached for the alarm clock, careful not to awaken the sleeping Taz who was curled up against his chest. She didn't notice the beeping of the clock. Up looked down at her and sighed. He kissed the top of her head and prayed to dead God that she would never get up.

73. Delivery

"¡Dios mio! Taz was yelling at the top of her lungs, kicking and screaming obstinacies in Spanish. "¿Cuando el infierno terminará esto?" Up stood beside her, completely serene, trying to calm her.

"Come on, Taz, you're doing great. This will be all over soon."

"¡Le hizo esto a mí! ¡Te odio, Up!" Up didn't know exactly what she said, but he heard his name, so he figured it was bad. Lately, Taz has been angrier than usual, and her anger was usually aimed at him.

"Don't be like that, Taz. It will all be worth it," Up tried again to soothe her, it didn't seem to be working very well.

"¡Fácil para ti decirlo! ¡Que no están pasando por esto!"

Hours passed of more continuous screaming. Then, the moment arrived.

This moment couldn't have come soon enough for everyone. Everyone in the room couldn't take anymore of Taz's screams in Spanish, Taz couldn't wait for the pain to end, and the others wanted to see what was happening. But this was the biggest moment of Taz and Up's lives. Up put his arms around Taz's shoulders instead of just holding her hand and Taz's screams were replaced by heavy breathing as she clung to Up. They didn't know this could possibly happen to them, they didn't know if everything would be okay. They didn't know what to expect. Taz and Up anxiously awaited the return of the doctor. When he finally did arrive, time stopped.

"Perfectly healthy," the doctor said with a smile. He was cradling a small blanket in his arms as he explained about the successful delivery, despite Up and Taz's unusual situation. Taz quickly became impatient and yelled at the doctor and told him to give her child to her. Even in this life changing moment, Taz insisted to seem tough. But when she held her child for the first time, her walls crumbled. Soft tears streamed down her face, and for the first time in her life, she didn't care who saw her tears.

42. Lust

Lust (noun)- intense sexual desire or appetite

Love (noun)- a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person

Whenever Up found his thoughts drifting towards the tiny Latina, he wrote it off as some form of lust. Taz was one of the only girls on the starship, and she was always with him, especially in the gym and in him room. Up did find her extremely attractive, and when she worked out so hard that she was panting and sweat dripped from her brow, it made his blood boil. He felt longing every time she raised her shirt a little to cool herself, because he got to see tan, toned stomach. Up wrote it off as human desire and would push her out of his mind. Whenever she and him were alone in his room, he his fingers would itch to touch her. His heart raced when he would notice that she would wear his shirts and boxers as he watched her climb into his bed as she awaited whatever movie they were watching that night to begin. He thought it was normal to feel the way he did just because a beautiful woman was alone with him in his bed. Up did feel guilty about his lustful feelings towards the young girl, but kept him from thinking about how he really felt about her. Up didn't want to love her, he would just feel worse. He knew he would get distracted thinking about her like some silly schoolboy in the midst of battle. And if enemies knew, they would use her against him. If he was in love with her, they would probably die. If he was in lust with her, they would live.
