A/N: Right so sorry for how long this update took but Uni started and that took up a lot of my time. For those of you who don't care about the long term plan for me just skip to the chapter. Right for those of you who are still reading this then you need to know that I can finally say I have a plan for my Fanfictions and that is one update a month and I know that isn't much but I'm sorry that's all I can promise now the problem is I have three stories ongoing (We Played Hide and Seek In Waterfalls, I Remembered and Together at last. So each of them gets at least 4 updates a year) and the order in which they get updated will be decided by you people by either PM ing me which one you prefer or Reviewing the story that you prefer. This one month update plan will start in the new year as these will count as Novermber's updates and hopefully I'll be able to do more than one update in December. Finally to those of you who are waiting on another Mass Effect story with Fem Shep and Liara I'm sorry but I have no drive to continue that any longer perhaps once one of these stories are finished I shall return to that series but for the foreseeable future I'm sorry that series is dead. Anyway if you have any questions PM me the current order of updates is on my Bio if you want to help change that order (or keep it the same) you know what you have to do. WELL DONE TO ANYONE WHO READ ALL OF MY A/N.

Traynor was pleasantly surprised at the meal Shepard had cooked up, granted it was just roast chicken and some vegetables, but something made it seem amazing maybe it was the candlelight or most likely it was the fact that she now had Shepard back.

"That was surprising why didn't you cook something like that when we were on the Normandy?" Sam asked as they were now simply sitting on the sofa in each others arms something was on the TV Sam just wasn't paying much attention.

"Honestly? I didn't know how to I've had time to learn how to be domesticated, I've not had much point in cooking something nice since Mindoir" Shepard explained

"Sorry to have brought that up losing your parents couldn't have been easy" Sam said holding Shepard just a bit tighter

"It was difficult and with the whole colony destroyed I had no idea what would have happened to me"

"What did happen to you? I mean you seem to fall of the records until you enlist" Sam asked

"Why Samantha if I didn't know better I'd say you've been spying on me" Shepard said teasingly

"No I haven't, I…when I thought you were gone I tried to learn everything about you as I could"

Shepard sighed "I was 6 I had literally seen my world destroyed and well I was taken in by a young Alliance soldier"

"really? Who" Sam asked her interest peaking

"Admiral Anderson"

"No way, you're lying to me" Sam said

"It's true, I think he took pity on me as a 6 year old who had to identify her father's body is a pretty bleak situation" Shepard explained

"just your father? Not you're mother?

"As you know both my parents were part of the Alliance and well on that day the first things the Batarians did was to jam our off world communications so my mother volunteered to fix the problem…the communications centre was also housed in the same building as the main power generator, when the Batarians bombed it, it most likely vaporised anyone in that building"

"Oh Shepard I'm so sorry" Sam said planting a light kiss onto Shepard's forehead

"Forget about the past now, all I want to do is focus on our future" Shepard said returning the kiss but this time to Sam's lips.

"Hmm how far ahead are you focusing?"

"Oh probably the next 2o minutes or so" Shepard said smiling as she picked up Sam and carried her to the bedroom.
