Episode 16 - Silent Cries
Location: The Quarters of Sergeant Tyrigus Fry - Deck 4 - USS Pioneer
Timeline: MD006 1000 hrs
It had been a couple of days since she'd seen Tyr. Millie still had smiles thinking back to the time they spent together. Ship life routine had come into play when Shoreleave had been cut short. Astrid had gone on shift once Millie's shift was done, and Millie went to sleep, Well tried to do that at any rate. Getting up, she decided to occupy her time, to work on the pair of mocassins she had promised Astrid that she would make. Time check, Tyr's shift should be done, Astrid was asleep, so she couldn't leave a voice message. Worrying her lower lip slightly, Millie sent off a message to Tyr.
Hey handsome, do you have some free time so I can see you? Millie Millie was feeling butterflies in her stomach as she waited for his answer. Feeling a little bit giddy at the thought of seeing Tyr.
Muzzy, Tyr heard the Comm beaping and swore (just a little) into the pillow. Glancing at the chrono being projected on the wall, he saw it was around 1000 hours. He'd been asleep for two hours after a full shift of training in the holo-tanks. Grumbling he rolled on his back, used a thumb to wipe the sleep from his eyes and then squinted at the ceiling and said, "Computer. Display message."
The message scrolled across his ceiling and it took a minute to process. His brain wasn't fully awake yet but the thought of Millie brightened him. They had only shared messages and a wave here and there since shore leave had been cut short. Still on his back, he brought his hands up so that the thumbs could touch, which keyed the holo-keypad and he typed out his own message, then input a follow me sub routine so she could find his quarters.
After sending, Hey good lookin, what's cookin? I'm having trouble sleeping. Come cuddle. His brain wasn't all there or he might not have sent a brazen answer like that. After hitting send his arms fell back on his double bunk and he fell asleep again.
Millie gave an inward squeal, nothing to be heard outloud. He invited her to his quarters! And she could definitely use a cuddle as well. She dressed in some comfy clothing, she didn't want to be parading down the corridor in her sleepwear. Following the footsteps Tyr had sent to her, Millie stepped inside the turbo-lift giving a greeting to those who in there. The lift stopped at the floor she needed, and she continued to walk that way. As she neared the door of his quarters, Millie could feel her heart rate pick up. It was so loud she felt that if anyone were near Millie they'd hear it like a rapid drum beat. Almost like a drum beat for a lively song.
The door opened when she stepped near, giving her entrance. The quarters were silent exeept for the soft breathing of someone asleep. The soft light of the clock's readout upon the wall, revealed Tyr sleeping upon his bunk. Slipping off her clothing, down toi her sleep wear, tank top and shorts, Millie slipped in his bunk, pulling up the covers over them both and closed her eyes.
Tyr came awake when the hatch cycled, but he kept his breathing even, eyes opening just slightly as he confirmed it was Millie coming in. Then he watched her (partially) remove her clothes and then she was sliding in next to him. Once she'd settled, he murmered sleepily (and he was tired) and wrapped into her, pulling her against his chest and settled back, taking in her scent and warmth. She was distracting, but he was a highly trained marine. He did shallow breathing exercises and got his heart rate under control, though he did open one eye to check on her.
Nestling against Tyr,being pulled close to him, Millie felt herself relax and a smile drifted across her lips. She should try to sleep, she should not disturb Tyr, but she wanted to just gaze at him for a moment, making certain this wasn't just a dream. Millie shifted slightly,to where she could gaze upon Tyr's features. She hadn't noticed him peering at her. She reached out as if to touch Tyr's cheek, to run her hand along his jaw, she stopped herself. He needed sleep and if she touched him Ty would awake. She just couldn't resist, she had to caress him.
Half asleep, he could feel her hand tentatively near him and decided to solve the problem by leaning into the touch. He reopened his eye and said, "Hi there."
Eyes flared open her cheeks heating up, it only lasted for a moment "Hi... I couldn't resist." caressing his cheek, loving the softness of his beard, running her hand all the way up to his hair which was just as soft. Millie leaned in, gently kissing Tyr.
Closing his eyes, Tyr leaned into the kiss gently, one hand tracing up her side to cup her chin slightly with his thumb as his fingers teased her ear. Then he became aware he was still in his body glove. As they broke the kiss, forehead to forehead, he chuckled. "Look at me, all dirty in my body glove. I was so tired I just collapsed when I got home."
Eyes glinting he asked her, "I should clean up. Are you a dirty girl Millie? Care to clean up with me?"
Tyr's touch sent goosebumps up and down her body, giving Millie a sense of pleasure. A shower with Tyr... That sounded exciting and so tempting.Was she ready for that next step? She wanted to-oh gosh how she wanted to. A bit of a smile towards him, "I'll be right here. I am feeling just a wee bit lazy right now." nope not ready for that step,but... seriously? Take things slow. Millie told herself.
Smiling and giving her a wink, Tyr kissed her then untangled himself from her and stood. Turning away, he began peeling the body glove off as he stepped toward the shower station. Keeping his back to her, he stripped naked and hung the glove in it's cleaning cubby, then looked back over his shoulder, flexing weakly and said, "Well, if you change your mind, you know where I'll be." Smiling, he stepped into the shower, cycled the hatch closed. When the clear surface turned opaque, he sighed. Stopped holding in what he thought of as his stomach and turned the controls to a water shower.
Cold
Millie was quietly biting her knuckle, as she watched Tyr strip out of his body glove. Holy smoke he was hot! Fine body proportion, definitely showing the work that he's had to do with the Marines. What the heck was she doing? She could be going in there with Tyr...She sat up in the bed her back against the wall, softly banging the back of her head against it. Millie drew her knees up to her chest, resting her forearms on top of them. They've not known each other for a long time, There was the meeting at the store gift shop, when she was looking for that glitch. Then the meet up for Never Winter and then the charity event with the Kareoke. Should she leave? No, that would be rude, what sort of message would that send to Tyr? She silently groaned. It felt so nice being held in his arms. And his kisses made her want to melt.
After about eight minutes and water chill enough that it felt like he'd turn into an icicle, Tyr pulled a towel from an overhead head rack, wrapped it around his waist and then cracked the door, peeking out. Grinning, he stepped out, then over to the a drawer. Looking over his shoulder he said, "Just a warning. I normally don't sleep in the glove or anything else." He pulled on PT gear of FMC running shorts and a Brigade Beer Bust t-shirt, then moved over to slide on the bed next to her, slipping an arm around her shoulders. "So next time you come over. Well I don't want you shocked." Smiling, he turned a bit serious, nudging his hip agains hers and said, "You ok?"
Millie's attention was definitely on Tyr when he came out of the shower, if she didn't like what she saw Millie could be considered dead and she certainly wasn't.
Millie's cheeks colored as she gave a shy smile, leaning against Tyr,then chuckled. "Well I will be okay.Just working out some things in my mind and with me in general. Thank you for the heads up on how you sleep. And now my head is going in that direction, you're so hot."her face heated up once more, and feeling flustered. "I would like to do more than cuddle,boy do I but right now I feel its too soon. And I don't want to be considered a tease.And and..." she shut herself up by burying her face in her hands. She felt so awkward right now.
"Don't worry about it," Tyr reassured her. "There's lots of cold water and all we have to do is hang out, cuddle a little. Make out a lot maybe and sleep somewhere between here and there." Grinning he said, "You're sexy as hell and have a great body. You're funny and have an awesome personality." His voice turned more amused, "And you show remarkable self control." Sliding back, he wriggled to a reclining position, one arm still around her and said. "You're no tease." He tickled her then, just a little.
Millie let out a squesl, Tyr having found a ticklish spot on her. "Good heavens you found out one of my dark secrets, you found a ticklish spot!" giving a mock growl and scowl, before She settled down to snuggle up to Tyr. " I like the sound of making out with you, and as for cold shower, I have a date for one of my own. Plus hopefully some sleep. You are amazing, you truly are, Tyr."
It was nice, Millie cuddled up against him. "I'm just Tyr. You're the amazing one, Millie. Now, let me show you my third favorite thing in the galaxy." Turning his head slightly, he said, "Computer. Play bugs. Random."
Ahead of them, the bulkhead came alight and an old earth cartoon began playing.
Bugs? He loves Bugs Bunny?! "I love Bugs Bunny, smart, cunning, funny and a great quick change artist." As the cartoon began, Millie went quiet not doing any talking, chuckling when she found moments funny. She was enjoying thie moment immensely any worries or concerns just fading away.
After about five minutes, Tyr fell asleep, Millie in his arms and he in hers, his head lolling against hers as events of the day(s) caught up to him. He breathed against her ear, nuzzling slightly as darkness claimed him.
The warmth of Tyr's body coupled by being held in his arms, the background play of Bugs, Millie's eyes drifted closed. She was tired oh so tired, a smile drifted across her lips.Sleep, blissful sleep claiming her.
