It felt like they had so little time, fleeting catch ups in spacestations then people were on their way again. Her eyes flickered from Cobus to Rehn...she wondered if he had caught on, if they were being that obvious though she kinda hoped they were. Sometimes she wondered how the hell they got away with it, then again...they had been going out together since they were of equal rank...Cobus just seemed to move much faster up the ladder than her. For the first time in her life she wasn't that pissed off about it, she was proud of him, she wanted him to do all the things she wanted to, to be the very best that he could. Eilidh knew that feeling and for a moment it rooted her to the spot. That was the moment she knew it was so serious they weren't going to get out of this unburned. That moment where she knew that she would ditch everything and run off with him if he asked her to, drop everything she had worked for if they had to move so he could get the job he wanted. Eilidh went a chill across her skin, the hairs on the back of her neck stood up on end and she felt ill. How had they got to this point without her even noticing?
For a couple of seconds it looked like she zoned out, colour drained from her skin before she snapped back in to the conversation and smiled softly. Well at least this mystery had come to a fast close. "Well, I'm glad thats sorted." Eilidh chimed in nodding her head as if it was going to make her point some how more valid before her smile softened. "I guess I'll see you on board Commander. Oh and...it's good to have you back, even if it's just for a bit." This was her chance. Eilidh felt this strange urge to show him how much she had grown up, how much better of a person she was and all the things she had done. She wanted to make her ex CO proud. She wondered if that was normal.
Eilidh wanted to roll her eyes at Cobus...but she didn't, she just laughed a little before shaking her head with that smile she reserved just for him. That smile that said 'you are an idiot but I love you for it.' "Don't get my hopes up like that." Her warning was serious as she closed one eye and pointed a finger at him. "I mean it." Of course she had toned herself down after all they were in company however she'd give him hell later.
