Will let Vash walk in first and let the doors close behind him. Everything was perfect including the company and considering this was the first time in so long to remember that he was just a man, William, that he could behave like one without fear of judgement from Command or putting the uniform at risk. Tonight he was a man, with a woman in a special moment together. Slipping off his jacket his took in the view that kept pulling at him but the view also included Vash and she was a beauty all unto herself.

How was he so lucky? He didn't rightly know but what he did know was that if it worked, accept it. There was no need to question it, no requirement to define it, just accept that it works and enjoy it. "Would you like a drink?" Unbuttoning the top of his shirt a little and the smile remained.

"Please," Vash said as she took in the unobstructed view of space from the massive floor to ceiling wrap around window that was the wall of the suite. She stepped over to it and laid a hand against the forcefield that kept the vacuum of space out and marvelled at the sight before her. "This is amazing, Will," she said before she turned back towards him. "But nowhere near as amazing as you are."

Will popped the cork sending it across the room in typical style, hurtling towards the corner of the room hitting the force field to rest on the floor under a small circular table with a plant on it. "Never gets old." Unless it was the time he caught it with his eye when he was younger earning him a trip to sickbay and the centre of a few choice jokes.

He poured the first glass as the bubbles erupted from the green crown of the bottle, a little spilled into the ice filled bucket but before the bubbles had dissipated two glasses had been poured. He walked towards her armed with the two and a smile. "I've said it before, I'll say it again." Will's voice soft and gentle. "You, back then and even now, even in here...make everything pale in comparison." Secretly he even included his ship in that, a ship that meant a great deal to him but Vash stood atop it all and he was fine with that.

She watched the cork fly, then back to him. "Who I was back then makes who I am now pale, but I only wish to exist in the now and become someone that you will be proud of, Will," she said as she moved back over to him. "And to have at your side no matter where we are at or who we are with." It wasn't a big secret that he hadn't taken her out to meet others yet, but she knew it was a big step for the man.

"I already am proud of you Vash and the here and now doesn't provide a better view than this." Handing her the glass Will placed a kiss upon her cheek before standing by her side to admire the view before them. Shuttles flew by, passenger ferries in flight as well as starships in holding position around the starbase. He sipped his drink as his arm slipped around her waist holding her to him as he took a measure of solace in the peace and tranquility that they could share in this moment together.

Vash reached for the glass with her left hand and took his free hand in her right. "How many people know about us, Will?" she asked. As yet, she hadn't encountered many crew who had anything to say in one way or another about her, but she was curious to see who he had told.

"Commander Reign, Dr Patrovski, I suspect one or two more of my senior staff, the security officers on guard outside my quarters." Will spoke. "Oh and Admiral S'iraa." Not that he didn't want to keep her a secret, only that recently because of what happened he'd lacked time or opportunity.

"So what do you say," she began before taking a sip of the champagne. "That when we get back to your ship, we hold a little celebration with all the senior officers?"

"I think that's a great idea. Considering what's happened recently I think coming together in a social setting could help moral and teamwork." With everything that had happened something social would benefit greatly from everyone being involved and it would be a prime chance for everyone to see Vash by his side. "We could do that on route to where ever they send us next."

Vash set her glass down and stood on her toes to give him a kiss. "No matter where you go, I want to be there with you," she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

With one arm he held her to him as he looked down upon her. "I'll be sure that you are because I don't want things to change." He was happy with Vash, she added for him a side of his life that he had ignored and now he wouldn't see things change. "So, this place has a hot tub, a shower, a very large bed, they even have a pull out so we can sleep right in front of the stars and nobody can see us, one way viewport."

"Why don't we take our champagne and go enjoy the hot tub, then take it to the bed or the pull out and put on a show the galaxy won't forget anytime soon?" she purred.

A smile grew on Will's face, it grew and grew as the suggestion rolled around in his head. "I do like the way you think." He leaned over and grabbed the bottle as he lead her to the room where the hot tub awaited. "Do you think I should take that stimulant Xavier gave me? We want the show to be worthwhile in duration after all." He smirked as the idea grew in favour in his head. "So glad I don't know what tomorrow will bring, so I'll assume not much."

Vash barely had time to get her glass before he was taking her towards the hot tub. "I'm not sure you'll need it...right away," she said. "But you may need it about halfway through if you're already thinking about it. Have you been building up your stamina when I'm not around?"

"A good man doesn't reveal all his secrets, especially to the one who is going to benefit from such efforts." Into the room with the hot tub and he turned it on, bottle on the side followed by his own glass. "I'll take that." Taking her glass and joining it with his. "Now....allow me."

Will stepped up behind her smaller frame and his hands traced the lines of her attire, the seams, the line of the bra then up her back towards her neck. His fingers ran up under her hair to run his fingers lightly against her skin, a good head scratch to get the ball rolling.

She leaned back against his muscular body and tilted her head back with a soft sound of contentment, knowing that whatever he had in mind, she was going to enjoy it. "Keep that up and you may need a new set of clothes, but I'll try not to rip those off."

His hands rose up the back of her head, his nails affording a gentle soothing scratching motion as he got to the crown of her head. He was pleased that she was relaxing into it as he used his body to keep her upright while his hands went down again to her shoulders. The mesh feel was taunting both in feel and view, he knew what lay under it having seen it many times before but something about almost seeing made it wanted even more.

Gradually though his hands fell to her shoulders where her dress, off the shoulder style was slowly pushed down her arms, slowly, teasingly, savouring the feel and moment as he undressed her.

Vash moved away from him slightly when he felt her removing her dress to help him, but let him take charge of what he was doing. A smile graced her lips and she was tempted to turn, but decided against it and waited to see what he would do next. "Mmm," she said. "I think we should get away more often."

"So do I." He agreed as he gently pulled the dress down letting it crest the peak of her breasts and down towards her waist. He placed delicate kisses upon her shoulders as he had to lean down for his efforts but they didn't stop or yield in movement as he pushed the material down her slender frame. Holding her in place he dropped to one knee behind her, his face close to her back so she'd feel his breath wash over skin, his efforts were now rewarded anew when the waistband of her panties came into view, earning a smile.

The same blue edged white of her dress greeted him when he came to her panties and she looked over her shoulder and down at him. She gave a leisurely sway of her hips and smiled. "I think I could get used to this kind of treatment," she said.

He chuckled at her remark as his hands with open palms slid the dress down her thighs instead of letting it simply fall. Once it reached her feet he lifted each tenderly and removed the dress from the floor to rest on a chair. "Would you like to keep these on, or off?" He asked softly as he stood up again while tracing his fingers up her legs again where his hands stopped on her waist.

"Who gets in a hot tub dressed?" Vash asked him as she stepped out of the dress so he could put it aside.

A fair point but Will was not done yet. Stepping Vash forward so she was next to the bubbling water, a fragrant scent on the air he hooked the waistband of her panties with his index finger on each hand and instead of kneeling this time, he leaned forward. The act while sliding her panties down her thighs would also bend her allowing her the feel of him against her, above her as the palms of his hands with panties in hook slipped down her thighs. A grin on his face as he kept himself teasingly pressed against her while he worked.

She bent over but wiggled her hips when she felt him pressed against her before she pressed back. Looking over her shoulder, she began to grind against him as she watched his face. ""This works two ways, you know."

"Yes...it does." He whispered next to her ear as he slowly stood up letting his nails trace her skin. As then rounded the bent over curve of her ass he slid his hands up her back before letting his nails meet her skin harder and afforded her a mild back scratch. Up and down, then again side to side to make sure that he covered all the sensitive areas before standing upright again. "In you get and I will pour you a refill."

Vash stepped out of her panties and shivered as he scratched her back, but stepped into the hot tub when she was able to stand again. "I'm starting to feel like a Princess, Will," she said as she watched him while sinking into the water. "Keep this up and I may decide to keep you forever."

Once seated Will took her glass a refill, he handed it to her. He then placed the bottle down again on the side of the hot tub. "Well I have to show you that I'm more than just a Starship commander after all, that I have other qualities to keep the lady interested." Will slowly removed his attire, slowly to tease and give her a watching view but to also look yet denied a touch now that she was seated.

Once he stepped in he slowly sank into the hot embrace of the tub to join her, he poured a refill of his own and then relaxed with glass in hand held above the water with a sigh. "We really need to do this more often, I might need one of these in our quarters."

When he was fully in the tub, she accepted the glass and set it on the rim and moved over beside of him and reached for his hand under the water. "I've always known you were more than a starship commander, Will," she said as she watched him. "You are showing how much more now and words can't begin to describe how much I appreciate it. A simple act like this is worth the ship's weight in latinum and I wouldn't give up what we have for anything."

Raising his arm up from the water, making sure not to drip onto her face he put it around her shoulders. His free hand finding hers again and holding it gently. He felt her against his side, even this innocent act of sharing a hot tub was enough to raise spirits, cheer him up and relax him. As sad as it was he'd had to surrender his ship for investigation and repairs he was uncertain what his future held. What he did know was that as long as Vash was with him, no matter what happened or where they went. To home, it would be worth it.

He let his head lean to the side and rest against hers. "Nor would I." It was the honest truth in its simplest form. "I hope we can do this more often, but I know you have a club to run once rebuilt." He spoke softly. "Though I did like the lay out of the place we ate at."

Vash leaned in to give him a soft kiss before she snuggled against him even more. "I do, too," she said. "I think I'll have it redesigned, although the crew may get upset that there won't be a strip club on the ship anymore. Still, it will add more class to the ship."

"I think so too." Cuddling up against Vash he relaxed. "You know, we can't stay in here forever, if we did Dr Patrovski wouldn't be happy." As much as he wanted to he was advised that 10-15 minutes at most per sitting was recommended but any time spent here, now, with Vash was worth every second.

"He can yell all he wants," Vash said as she moved to straddle his hips and pressed herself against him before she leaned in to give him another kiss. "He can't do what I can."

"No....he can't." Wills arms wrapped around her holding her firm and close. He kissed back with a burning passion, a zealed lust for her as the bubbles surrounded them in a warm popping embrace. His tongue found hers, hers found his hungry and demanding as his hands roamed her back leaving his lips to part with hers. One hand rose to her red hair and with a fistful gently pulled on it lifting her head back and exposing her neck. His lips started to glide on her neck, sucking, nipping at her as his breath washed over her skin with each passion filled exhale.

She stayed pressed against him and moved her head when he took a fistful of hair instead of retaliating as her instincts demanded. She had to remind herself that she wasn't the Emerald Empress and that he wasn't out to hurt her. She sighed when he kissed her and finally she wrapped her arms around his neck and looked into his eyes.

"Will," she said softly. "I know that your first duty is to Starfleet, and I know I can never come first, but I want to tell you something. I love you, Will."

Will stopped as if everything would crumble apart otherwise. His lips slowly left her neck and his hold on her hair yielded as his hands came to rest on her sides of her straddling frame. The smile on his face told her nothing was wrong, it was broad enough to indicate it was very right in fact as he looked at her. "I love you too."

A voice so soft, so sweet even in his passion filled lustful state as he looked at her. His breathing was heavy as he was riding the waves of passion when she spoke but her words demanded a reply, his attention. "I love you too." He repeated just as softly as he smiled at her, his thumbs moved left and right as he held her in his lap.

"You do?" was all Vash could manage. She had been expecting him to come up with reasons why he couldn't return it and was now left speechless.

"Of course I do Vash." He softly spoke looking up to her to the sound of the hot tubs bubbles. "You shared with me something private, who you were, you were up front with me from the get go. You told me about the injection, you gave me the option to stand equally and you didn't have to. Here and now is a prime example of what things could be like between us, we have our moments our ups and downs but it doesn't change anything." Will paused for a moment before he continued.

"I'd had feelings for you for a bit now but I didn't want you to feel pressured or pushed, I wanted you to come to it by yourself without me saying anything, but I'm glad you have."

"You're the only one I want, Will," she said. "You're like no other man I've met in my life and you certainly stand hand and shoulders above them. You're what I've been looking for my whole life."

Will smiled at her words, warm, heartfelt, deep and full of meaning. There was no doubt in his mind she meant every word, that his involvement in her life had made a positive impact as it had his own. His hands rested on her waist as he simply held and admired. He knew her past, he knew she was a proud independant woman and he was not looking to impose or change that in the least. All he wanted was to be with her and make her happy, nothing more, nothing less. "I'm not going anywhere, not without you." A smile and pause as he enjoyed the moment with her. "We should however get out of this before we cook ourselves. Then the Doctor would have something to rant and rave about for sure."

"The Doctor would be ranting and raving at soup," Vash pointed out. "And I don't know about you, but I could stay in here another hour before I was done. However, I don't want you to be cooked. I have other plans for you."

"Oh.." A smile upon his face as he held her in his grasp. "Plans for me, and what could this humble man do for such an exquisite gem such as you hmm?" Will's demeanour was playful, his hold gentle, his look warm and friendly. If getting away meant they could open up to each other, share feelings like this with each other then they had taken a step in the right direction. In Will's head he already promised himself to make the time, go out with Vash, be seen in public with her and damned to the thoughts of others.

She climbed out of the hot tub, water dripping off of her green skin that almost seemed to glow in the dim lighting and reflected lights from the exterior of the station, a silhouette of water nymph coming to play on land. "Plans that will have both of us moaning in mutual pleasure," she said as she reached for a towel.

Will smiled as he took a breath, tonight was unfolding better than expected and Vash seemed to be enjoying herself and that to him, was what was important. As he admired the view of her walking away he wiped his face and slowly slipped out himself from the tub. Armed with a towel he began to dry himself and wrapped it around his waist tucking the corner into the formed waistband before coming to a stop at the doorway, watching the stars and sun light up her body for his viewing pleasures and smiled. "Times like this I wish I had a camera to capture this perfect moment."

"No camera can ever truly capture feelings or emotions," Vash said as she headed for the massive bed. "There would always be something special missing."

Will followed her, watching her every move, every sway and stride as she made it to the bed. She was right of course, something would be missing but a view like this was...well heavenly to him. His steps were slower as he wanted to etch this to memory, remember it for time immemorial. She was everything he'd hoped for and here she was in the room with him in nought but a towel.

She dropped the towel and climbed onto the bed, her tiny form dwarfed by the size of the bed. She moved to the middle of it before she lay on her side and then rolled onto her back to look at him. "Are you going to join me?"

"Yes, yes I am." There was no hiding the smile on his face as he watched her crawl into the bed bare for him to see all and lay on her back. The bed was large, very large in fact and he dropped his own towel and climbed onto the bed to join her, laying next to her on his side facing her. The view at the foot of the bed was unobstructed beauty of stars, ships and a partial view of the planet. A perfect setting for a night.
