Shepard stood at the sink, the door to the bathroom left wide open, having just finished brushing her teeth. She didn't look at her own reflection, though. In fact the entire time she'd had trouble focusing on what she had been doing. Instead she watched the man that was stretched out in her bed. She had been lucky he wasn't part of her crew, no doubt she would have been more than a little distracted. Alenko had been bad enough. Not that she wouldn't have counted herself lucky to have him at her back. Shepard shook the thoughts that clouded her mind. Cupping her hand beneath the faucet she gathered some cold water and splashed her face with it. That was then. This is now. And the Galaxy was safe. She didn't have to think about war. About the lives she couldn't save. |
