go, so he's sending me instead.  At least Ron will come with me
and keep me company.  After that, I'll figure it out.  I'd like to go home to
Rozari but Captain may want me to oversee the repairs.”
    “I'd want to go home too if I had that man
to go home to,” I sighed.
    Katie laughed.  “Let me tell you Caroline
he's just as bad as any one of them.  When I am home, I am the maid, the cook
and the cleaning lady.  All he does is work, drink, smoke, watch football and
demand...”  She glanced at Jerry.  “What all men want.”  Jerry made a sour face
and stepped out of the lift.
    “Katie, that's not true,” I protested. 
“I've seen pictures of your mansion.”
    “Alright,” she agreed, letting the lift
doors shut.  “He's got some benefits too and some idiosyncrasies that you
wouldn't believe but for the most part, he's just like the rest of them.  Gotta
go.”  She waved her cell at us.
    “And I'm sure all you do is nag,” Jerry
called after her and then stomped back to the bay.

    “Why don't you wear that Versace suit you
were going to wear at the conference?”
    “Do I have to go?”
    “Yes.  You have to accompany me.  You're
my date, unless you want me to take someone else.”
    “I do not care to meet Andorian public
officials.”  He was typing away at his netbook.  I wrapped my arms around his
neck and looked at his poor arms.  He had cuts all over them.  He had been seeding
the Karupatani continent while I had been in space these last few months.
    “Do you have to do this?” I said, rubbing
his arms.
    “Yes,” he replied.  “And I have to finish
this report before the board meeting next week.”
    “Come on, it's just for a few hours,” I
begged.  “I know some Andorian Governors or whatever they are, are nothing
compared to all the royal people you must know but I promised Capt. Richard I
would go.  Please put on your suit.  I'll reward you if you do.”
    “Five more minutes,” he said, but then
turned and grabbed me, pulling me down on his lap.
    "I want my reward first."
    "Oh, no, you don't," I laughed
and pushed his face away from my chest.  "Rewards are for good behavior
and you haven't demonstrated any yet."
    "I am good," he said, his hands
slipping under my skirt messing up my uniform.  "I am very good."
     
    "Now will you put on your suit?"
I said, laying it out next to him on the crumpled bed and hunting in the closet
for his tie and shoes. 
    "Ay yah, when I have finished my
cigarette."  He exhaled grey smoke into the cabin air.
    "So come on then, hurry up."  I
picked my crumpled dress white uniform off the floor and hung it in the
Insta-clean.  If I had not been the invited guest representing Spaceforce, I
would put on a cocktail dress if I had one.  I wished I had one, a little black
thing to wear with a necklace and maybe a pretty diamond bracelet and
earrings.  I wished I could look as beautiful as this man accompanying me.  I
turned back to the bed to look at him, to soak him up with my eyes, when his
own eyes flashed brightly back at me.  Too brightly, I thought, wondering how
long it had been since he was out seeding .
    “What?” I said and stroked his foot,
running my finger along those wicked looking toenails.
    “You are beautiful.”
    “This from a blind man.  I'm very sexy in
that shapeless boxy uniform.  Bars and medals really turn you on?  Epaulettes
and aiguillettes drive you crazy?"
    He shook his head and flicked the spent
cigarette away into the land of the nothingness.  "No," he said seriously. 
Grabbing my arm and pulling me back down to him, his nicely laid out suit got
shoved to the floor.  "You wearing the uniform of the Allied Spaceforce
does nothing for me."
    "You can't see me anyway!"
    "I can see you," he replied,
stroking my breast with his hand, swiping at first one then the other nipple
with his tongue.
    "You are insatiable," I moaned.
    "I am," he agreed.
