things you said that I wasn’t meant to hear
“I think I have a problem” Vii held the hot mug of tea between her hands. Flynn and Kira sat at the table with her, Lora besides her.
“Yeah, it’s called ‘Doc’.”
Flynn muffled his laughter, Lora looked over to Kira
“What?! I’m right and I should say it. The man looks like he was in an illicit holo video.”
“The fact that you know this, concerns me.” Lora frowned
“Hey, its not me.” Kira denied
“Not me!!” Flynn threw his hands up, “I dont even own a holo.”
“That’s a lie and you know it.” Kira laughed, poking fun at him.
Doc was walking back with Breccan with drinks and food. He hung back a little.
“I THINK I’M IN LOVE--” Vii almost yelled over her friends.
Doc stopped out of view, almost dropping the food. Breccan almost fell over. There was silence over the group, Breccan peaked around the wall to get a better look.
“-- in love with Doc” Her voice lower, almost a whisper, feeling shame for making a scene when she just wanted to get something off her chest.
Kira was about to open her mouth, something sarcastic. But nothing came out, noticing her friend was blushing.
“Are you sure? I mean--”
“Are you gonna tell him?”
“NO, he’ll dismiss it, I mean. He’s had so many other women I don’t know if this is a craving? I’m emotionally comprmised?”
“I think we are all guilty of something like this”
Flynn looked sheepishly at Kira.
Breccan looked at Doc who looked back him in confusion letting out a little chuckled, “Have fun with that.”
He walked into the group. “Annnd we’re back with the goods” He said a little louder so the group had time to cover up. Lora smiled at him
“We thought got lost, you were taking for ever.” She teased
“You can’t rush these things.” Doc wonder back into view, interjecting. Cool, like he heard nothing.

He wasn’t meant to hear it. It had been a week, he couldn’t let it rest. Is that the feeling that was rooted to him? Making him feel as light as a feather, miss her every time she was gone?
He was always so warm, his hands where rough, but nice? A strange feeling, good never the less.
She missed his weight on her. It felt like everything was worth it.
She’d missed his mustache, the way it tickled her lips when she kissed him, the grey streaks in it.
Grey streaks?
She noticed his grey hair, she almost laughed.
“W-what?” He pulled back, his voice strained, but loving.
“I just noticed, you look more ... distinguished” She tried to hide her smile. He was always a little cocky, she didn’t want it sound like she was insulting him, she quiet liked it.
Doc’s eye’s widened. She may have wounded his pride.
“I finally got to make out with you for the first time in years, and you wound me like this?” Doc being over-dramatic, she really missed it.
“I think it looks good!” She put his hands on his face, “I’m just... shocked. I didn’t know you could look even better.” She ran has hands through his hair.
Doc cocked an eyebrow, “Good save there.” He smiled
