Hugo Jaramillo. Nurse aboard USS Enterprise. I mostly just want to see everything and heal everybody along the way. STARFLEET MEDICAL { CREWMAN }

Eliza started at both his words and the gentle touch of this lips against hers. She pulled back to look into his eyes and to be sure that he was telling the truth, and then decided that she didn’t care whether this was some cruel joke or if she had finally gone insane with longing for him.

"I," Eliza took a slow deep breath in and then continued, "I love you too, Hugo."

When she thread her hands into his hair and pulled his lips back to hers, it felt like fireworks were going off in her very core.

This time, when Hugo and Ellie kissed, it felt deeper. Not so much physically, but Hugo felt as though his heart may burst from the surprise and joy of it all. He loved her, and she loved him back, and it was too good to be real. If this was all imagined, then Hugo would refuse to ever face reality again. This was the only life he would want to have.

He pulled away, regrettably so, but not quickly either. The kiss was both instantaneous and timeless. Their eyes locked again, and the nurse smiled as he fixed her messy black hair.

"You realize I'm never leaving you alone again, right?" He asked breathlessly.

Eliza couldn’t bear to look into Hugo’s eyes anymore, it seemed like if she did they would swallow her whole. She buried her face into his neck and tried to quell the hot tears she could feel burning in the back of her eyes. As she tried to calm her erratic breath, she felt one solitary tear slip out of her traitorous eyes and onto the hot skin of Hugo’s neck. 

"How do you feel about me, Hugo?”

As soon as she whispered it, a quiet and broken as it was, she could tell that Hugo had heard her. She immediately wished she could pull the words back into her chest and lock them away again forever.

"Did you really believe I could hate you, of all people?" He asked sincerely, but half his mouth twitched in a shy smile anyways. "It was unprofessional to like you as more than a friend or crewmate...and I care for you so much more than that."

His voice became quiet, comforting like it was used to, like the way he spoke to a bed-ridden patient, only with more feeling. Hugo's fingertips barely threaded through Eliza's dark hair before he attempted to look at her tear-stained face yet again.

"I love you, Ellie," he answered softly, and proved it by gently planting his lips upon hers.

After the initial shock of being held so tightly against another body passed, Eliza gripped Hugo’s uniform and buried her face in the crook of his neck. She thought that maybe if she got close enough, they would eventually osmose into one another and she would never have to feel alone or unwanted again.

With a deep shuddering gasp Eliza took what felt like her first real breath in months, she could smell Hugo, a mixture of sterile hospital smell and pure unadulterated warmth. She closed her eyes and let his words wash over her and his soft broken tone unleashed a cascade of her own apologies. "I’m so sorry Hugo. Please. Please."

She had no idea why she was saying please, maybe to beg him to accept her or never ever let go or to be gentle with her battered heart because now there was no denying that she had given it to him.

Hugo gasped; he could hardly breathe around her. He never could, really, but now it was unbearable in the best way.

"No, I--" He licked his lips and gazed into her light blue eyes, bright like the stars he adored for so long. "I thought it would be better," he said, unfocused because Eliza was the perfect distraction, but he was honest. He had to explain himself and his actions. He owed her that.

"I thought it'd be better if I didn't see you," he admitted in a soft, broken voice. What a stupid thing to have thought, he realized, now that she was here in his arms like he had wanted. The nurse swallowed a breath, and still never took his eyes off of her. "I was afraid...I always ruin things that are already perfect, and I couldn't be honest with how I felt about you, Eliza. And I couldn't bear it if you didn't feel the same..."

Imagine your OTP in bed together naked. Person A is a medical student and as they’re lying with Person B they begin naming off different part of the human body, kissing and caressing each part they name of Person B’s body as they go. Eventually Person B starts giggling from Person A either accidentally or intentionally caressing a sensitive bit of skin and they have to stop. Both however are smiling.

Eliza of course had hoped that Hugo would respond to her note but not for more than one fevered second had she thought that he would take action so quickly. She had hardly been in her room for a minute before she heard him alert the door to his presence, twice in relatively quick succession At least quick for the pace her over worked brain seemed to be moving.

With a shaking breath Eliza picked herself up from where she had thrown herself onto her bed, like her dirty uniforms after a long shift and made her way slowly, so slowly to the door. She couldn’t stand to see him once again for what was probably going to be an explanation of how he didn’t need her messy, depressing notes shoved under his door. But her bravery was one of the few things that she had always been able to count on, she at least hoped she could count on it as she opened her door.

But he didn't even say anything. Hug was planning to, but when the moment arrived, all he could manage to do in less than a second's time was wrap his arms around Eliza in an embrace that was surprisingly tight for the usually-gentle nurse. He didn't even breathe at first until he smelled the slight fragrant notes of her hair that he pressed his face into.

"I'm sorry," he breathed, and practically had to choke the words out of himself. "I'm so sorry."

Hugo-

We haven’t talked in a while, and I was wondering how you’ve been.

I miss you

Did I do something?

I hope all is well and that I didn’t do anything to cause this sudden silence between us.

-Love

Maybe it was better that it wasn't a message sen to his PADD. The tired paper and blotted ink said so much more. She must have felt as bad as he did, even though neither of them seemed to know what went wrong...

He went to her door, and alerted it. He would wait. He wasn't going to move. His hand would still clutch to the crinkled note in his hand, a tight grip from skin that had roughened over the few months they were apart, and in the time that he was gone.

Hugo pressed the button again.

[lieutenant-owens]

Eliza paced the halls as quietly as she could, trying to avoid the thoughts that had plagued her for the past few months.

What if he doesn’t want to talk to me anymore?

If he wanted to talk he would have made an effort. 

Over the past 20 minutes she must have raised her hand to his door a half dozen times, getting close enough to almost sense him behind the door, before lowering it and speeding down the corridor. 

Eventually she worked up every once of courage her insomnia ridden body had and slipped the note she had written him under his door, softly knocked, and very nearly ran in her hast to get back to her room.

Hugo hadn't noticed the note until he opened his door, which although it opened with a quick slide, he was still too slow to see who had knocked just moments ago. He looked around, and he heard and saw nothing, until he somehow thought to glance at his feet.

Before he could read the note, the nurse knew who it was from.
