Future's Beginning--part two
by Leslie Magowan

**For notes and disclaimers see part one

She drifted awake several hours later, unsure of what had roused her. Chakotay was still asleep under her, snoring quietly as usual. As her awareness increased, she realised that her bladder had been signalling her. She began trying to extricate herself from Chakotay's arms without waking him, and eventually managed to slip out of bed. She stood and watched him sleep for a moment, and pulled the covers back up to keep him from getting cold while she dashed to the bathroom.

On her way back out, she noted that the automatic cleaning system had already taken care of the puddle. Either that, she thought with a grin, or the occupant of the quarters below hers had a big problem!

She set the tub's controls to drain, and bent to scoop up the crumpled towels from the floor. The scent of the two of them together rose to her nostrils, and she inhaled it with a fierce burst of happiness. After giving them another squeeze, she deposited them in the recycler and headed back to bed.

Chakotay had begun to stir and search for her warmth in his sleep; he opened his eyes halfway when she lifted the covers to slip in beside him.

"S'try duthrside...m'armzasleep," he croaked.

She snickered, and climbed over him to curl her back up against his other side. He rolled over and spooned himself behind her, wrapping his arms around her with a contented sigh as she snuggled into his warmth.

"Is it later yet?"

".....Inunno .....lemme wake up a bit..."

They lay cuddled together for a while, and she had almost drifted back to sleep in his arms when he let out a quiet snort of laughter into her hair.

" ..what...?"

"We finally have all this room, and we're still squeezed into the same tiny space!"

They both began giggling at this realisation, and he rolled over onto her. She finally reached behind her and tickled under his ribs to get him off her, and he lurched back. She rolled over to finish the job, only to find her wrists pinned together in his hands.

She subsided against him with a sigh of pleasure and draped her leg over his waist, as he hugged her hands to his chest with one hand and draped the other arm over her. They lay for a long time facing each other with their heads on the same pillow, breathing each other in and looking into each other's eyes.

"You know, I missed this as much as the sex."

"Hmm?"

"Laughing and talking together, and holding each other...."

"Me, too."

"Which doesn't mean that I didn't miss the sex, too!"

"Hmm!"

"I thought if I ever had the chance to make love to you again, I'd be so worked up, I'd just throw you on the bed and jump on top of you ....I'd probably have come in my pants before we got anywhere, though."

Her eyes warmed with laughter. "Well then, I'm very glad you had a backup plan. ....actually, I had a recurring fantasy about lying in wait for you in your quarters when you came back from Sandrine's or somewhere, knocking you down on the floor and ripping your clothes off, and..."

"Oh, I like yours better...."

".....Then I'd tell myself that a Captain shouldn't even be thinking such things about her crew, and I tied myself up in knots trying not to. I got crankier and crankier.."

"Really? I hadn't noticed .......ouch!!"

"That wasn't the right answer!"

"Obviously not; sorry."

"........no, I'm sorry. I don't quite know why I felt it was so important to keep a professional distance from you out here in the middle of nowhere, after everything we'd been through together ....but I don't feel that way anymore."

"I'm glad, because I'm not going through that again." He raised himself up on one elbow, still holding her hands. "I mean it, Kathryn; on duty, you're my Captain, and I'm your First Officer, and I'll follow your orders. Off duty, it's just us, and I won't back off if you try to pull away from me again; you'll have to throw me in the brig to get me out of your quarters.

I gave in after New Earth and waited for you to come around, and it was the biggest mistake I ever made; it led to months of misery for both of us. I can handle a fair fight with Kathryn, but The Captain has no place in our personal lives.... agreed?"

She tugged her hands out of his grasp, lifted herself up on her elbow and gazed into his eyes. Then she held up one of her hands with her palm facing him and her fingers spread. His eyes grew bright with emotion, and he raised his own fingers to intertwine with hers.

"Agreed. Kathryn and Chakotay. Just us."

He bowed his head until his forehead touched hers, and she thought he might be crying. She slid her arms around his neck and lay down with him, pulling him over so that he could rest his head on her shoulder and slip one of his knees between hers, and she could tangle her leg around his. She couldn't keep his weight on her for very long, but it was his favourite snuggling position, and she loved the feeling of being all wrapped up in him.

As she smoothed her hands down over his shoulders to hold him, she savoured the texture of his skin and the feel of his big body on hers. She planted a soft kiss in his hair, and caught a hint of his scent; it was changing.

He exhaled with happiness and relaxation, slid a hand up to cradle her breast and kissed her chest where his head was resting. She stroked his back and shoulders, humming in contentment. They lay there together for a while, she letting his scent envelop her, he listening to the rhythm of her heart speed up under his ear.

"I think it's later..."

She could hear him smiling; she shifted her position slightly, and raised an amused eyebrow at him. "It certainly feels later."

She started to roll him onto his back, but he pushed her back down, laughing into her face. "Nooo, you don't!"

"But I'm not finished 'later'," she grinned back at him in mock protest.

"I'm afraid if there isn't a before 'later', there isn't going to be any after 'later', either." They giggled together. " I'm only human." ....... He snuck a kiss, and then began to tease her with kisses between each of his reasons. "Besides, I think I deserve to have my turn first ...........there's an awful lot I didn't get to taste earlier ..................... and I didn't come in my pants..."

She let out a whoop of laughter and reached for him. He kissed her in triumph, buried his face in her neck and began nuzzling. "No hickies, Chakotay, I have bridge duty tomorrow ......Cha KOtay!!!"

"Just one," he coaxed, smiling the smile he knew she couldn't resist, "right down here where no one else will see it...." His lips trailed down below her collarbone, and when he heard her reluctant gurgle of laughter, he lunged in for the kill. One sucking bite later, she was wearing a discreet memento of their activities.

He kissed his way down over her ribs to the junction of her hip and waist, lightly stroking the soft skin there with his thumb, and she yelped and twisted as he dove in and marked her again. She reached for his ribs and tickled him, until he seized her wrists and pinned them beside her head, smiling down at her.

"I want paybacks."

"Well ...you're welcome to try....."

He lowered his head and kissed her until he felt her yield and kiss him back, and then he released her wrists and lowered himself onto her. His hand moved down to find her breast, and his tongue played with hers while he stroked it, until she arched up and moaned. He kissed his way down to where his hand cupped her, and ran his tongue over her nipple again and again before pulling it into his mouth.

Her stomach tightened, and she clutched at his head as she arched further into his mouth. "Ohhhh! onhgh....aah!"

Her sounds were making his head spin, and he fought to focus on what he was doing. He brought his fingers up to replace his mouth so that he could move to her other nipple; once there, he suckled and moaned against her skin until she was whimpering and rocking her hips against him.

Her urgency communicated itself to him, and he slid down her body, running his tongue over her stomach and belly, until his arms were cradling her thighs and he was kissing and sucking along the tender skin on the insides, drinking in her scent. She moaned loudly and raised her hips up to him.

"Chakotay ..touch me ......OHHHH!! She was trying to pull his head against her, and he obliged by kissing her swollen, wet lips and revelling in her cry of pleasure. He extended his tongue and pushed it into her equally wet folds, and then ran it upward until he encountered her hard clitoris. He swirled his tongue around it, and then sucked it delicately until she screamed with pleasure, pulled his head hard against her, and ground her pussy into his face. He knew she was close to coming; one nip of his teeth, and she screamed again and thrashed against him, pulling his hair.

When she fell back onto the pillow, he moved up quickly to cup her face and kiss her. She was still trembling and shuddering, and she moaned at the taste of herself on him, kissing and licking his lips and making greedy little sounds in the back of her throat.

When her tremors finally stilled, she lay back and closed her eyes for a moment, and he kissed her neck and shoulders and stroked her stomach while her breathing slowed. When she opened her eyes again, she sighed in contentment and wrapped her arms around him.

As she kissed him, she pushed him over on his back and buried her nose in his neck. Pleased with what she found there, she began licking and kissing her way down over his collarbone to his nipple. She smiled at his shuddering indrawn breath and nipped and sucked it erect, enjoying the ripples this caused in his stomach, pressed against hers. She licked across his chest to his other nipple, and gave it equal attention.

He was breathing hard now, and she licked and sucked her way down his stomach and belly. The head of his cock rubbed against her jaw; he moaned in anticipation and arched up to bring it to her mouth. She smiled at him and moved around it, pushing his hips back down onto the bed, and he groaned in frustration.

She kissed down over his hip and down his leg to his knee, and then began licking her way up his inner thigh toward his groin, never quite reaching it. Every time he lifted his hips or tried to move himself into her path, she stopped and started over, smiling into his eyes and teasing him.

"Ohh ... Kathryn ..you're killing me...."

"Do you want me to stop?"

"No!! ..don't stop .........just hurry up!!"

She laughed with him, and resumed licking.

"I have a bit of unfinished business, first........," and she delivered a hickey on the sensitive flesh of his inner thigh.

"Ow!"

"You had that coming."

"I'm going to have something else coming if you don't get there soon!"

She laughed again and moved to his other thigh. When she had licked it thoroughly and had his skin tingling, she bit him just hard enough to leave a mark. He gasped and jumped, and she grinned up at him.

"Let’s see you explain that to the doctor!"

"I'll be dead by then .....Kathryn ..please!" he begged breathlessly.

She took pity on him and buried her face against his groin, taking in his scent: delicious. He placed his trembling hands in her hair and stroked it gently, and she ran the tip of her tongue up the underside of his cock. He groaned from deep in his chest, and she continued, swirling her tongue around the head, and lapping up the drops that rose to meet her.

He was trembling all over by then, and raised his knees to give her better access. She stroked his shaft with her hand and ran her tongue down over his balls. As she lapped and sucked at them, she felt them tighten under her lips, and realised she didn't have much time. She moved her tongue back up his shaft and over the head to take him into her mouth. He cried out and tangled his fingers in her hair, and began to thrust into her mouth. "Oh, Gods ...Kathryn ........OHH!"

She let him go and wriggled up his body, trailing her nipples over his stomach and chest, and kissed him hard. His arms went tightly around her, and she slid down onto his cock and rocked and squirmed until she had engulfed him. She began to undulate on him, kissing him and rubbing her nipples against his chest, while rubbing her clit against his belly and grinding her pelvis into his. Intense sensations consumed her: the feel of his body, the sound of his voice, and his scent.....

He was close to losing control, thrusting up into her and moaning her name over and over. She looked into his face, with his eyes squeezed shut and her name passing his open lips, and felt an overwhelming wave of love for this man, and joy at being able to show it to him physically. Ripples of pleasure started in her belly, and began moving outward.

"Cha..kotay......"

"Ohhh....."

"Chakotay.."

"Mmm?"

"I love you!"

"OOOOOOOOOHH!"

He grabbed her hips and thrust up into her hard once, and then a final time. The hot gush against her cervix accelerated her ripples into waves, and she thrashed as he held her down on him.

She slumped onto his chest, and he smoothed her wet hair out of her face and stroked it while they waited for their breathing to slow.

"Kathryn...," he panted.

"Hmm?

"I love you, too....!"

"Mmmmmm!" He could feel the tug of her lips smiling against his chest, and then her kiss. With a lazy hum in her throat, she slipped down to snuggle against him with her head on his shoulder, and they drifted off to sleep together.

*****************

The chiming of the alarm woke them hours later; he planted a kiss on her forehead, and they stretched in each other's arms.

"Oh my god, I'm sore!" she moaned.

"Serves you right for waiting so long; you have to stay in shape for this sort of thing, you know."

"I'll try to keep that in mind."

"Besides, what about me?" His tone was pathetic as he lifted himself up on his elbows and raised his knees to survey the damage.

She chuckled, and ran a finger over her handiwork. "I *dare* you to go to sickbay."

"And be treated by Tom Paris? No, thank you; I'll live with it."

"Well, try not to whimper too conspicuously on the bridge; I don't want the crew to think you've been mistreated."

"Speaking of the crew, how do you think we should handle them?"

She lay back on her own elbows, echoing his position, and grinned at him over her shoulder. "..........well ... I think that when we leave here to go to your quarters so you can get into uniform, we should walk out the door without checking to see whether there's anyone in the corridor."

"Not so much as a computer check?" Mock horror.

"Nope. Then, when we leave your quarters to go to the mess hall, we should do it again. Paris or Kim or Torres is bound to see us, and by the time we get to the Bridge, the whole ship will know; problem solved."

"Do we still have time to place a bet before the news gets out? I could use the extra replicator rations."

"Not if you're planning on having a shower before duty."

He grinned wolfishly at her and heaved up suddenly, pulling the covers over her head. He rolled over with her, and she found herself wrapped up like a mummy, completely immobilised. He tickled her in the general vicinity of her ribs and hooted at her muffled shrieks. "Race you to the shower!"

She floundered about until she managed to work herself free, and set off after him with her hair standing on end, ready to begin the new day.

THE END!
