Shepard didn't really know what she'd done to deserve the man that had mended her wounds, and bandaged hear heart. She was pretty sure she didn't really deserve him. She was mean at the best of times, and down right dangerous at the worst. But, he made her want to do better. Be better. That's why she stuck with AA. So she'd have more good days than bad. So maybe one day she'd be worthy. She'd gotten up, with an excuse that was kind of flippant, she hadn't prepared a line. She'd call him down once she was done. She had prepared some succulent bacon wrapped filet mignon, and while they rested cooked some asparagus in the remnants before she made a sauce with it. And rounded it out with herb roasted smashed potatoes. While leaving it all in one of the warming units she showered, down in the shared crew bathroom, and dressed in her dress white uniform. All before sending that message. She paced in front of the elevator that would bring him down. Her hat tucked under her arm. Thankful that this dress uniform had gloves, other wise she would be chewing her nails down to the nub. Why was she so nervous? Well there was a very important question she wanted to ask him. And the answer could always be no. |
