Angela sighed, the embrace felt good and yet wrong at the same time, it took more effort a bit of effort to not tense up. Her chest tightened as she heard his sigh and knew that it was not the same as the one she just gave. Making how she felt even harder to convey, but she knew something had to be done about it. Taking a final deep breath she gently pulled away from him, needing the space from his body in order to make sure that her head was clear and focused.<br/><br/>â€œDrenâ€¦Iâ€¦.Weâ€¦â€ she sighed again then started over.<br/><br/>â€œI donâ€™t think that what we did was a mistake either while generally we donâ€™t start off relationships like this here, it was still not something that I would ever call a mistakeâ€ she paused and ran a hand through her mane of hair on her head to give herself a moment to find the right words; if there were any.Â  â€œItâ€™s just that I am not sure I am ready for a relationship right now. Before you came on board I was in a rather involved relationship that ended on bad terms and left me bitter. I honestly never thought that I would find anyone else that I would even consider being with again. Figuring that I would just devote myself to my work; try to find meaning and happiness there. It was not really working but like I said I could not see myself being with anyone else again. Then you came along and I can easily admit that I was attracted to you physically because of the similarities that we have nearly the same DNA and instinctsâ€<br/><br/>She paused again, her hand on nervous hand again raking through her hair and giving her a chance to collect her thoughts before continuing.<br/><br/>â€œI am just not sure if we should continue forward, I mean I am your superior officer in my crew and having you work under me could lead to some issues with how I assign missions and teams. Iâ€¦â€ she sighed again â€œWhat I am trying to say is to letâ€™s take some time to get to know one another better and we can see where this goes, if anywhereâ€¦ok?â€ she asked him hoping that she had not hurt him in any kind of way.<br/>Â<br/><span style="color: #FF8000">How was she feeling? Such simple question yet the answer was not that simple. She was tired, a bit nauseous and she thought that she was going to lose her mind with all the thoughts that were running through her mind. Yet in a way she was feelingâ€¦<br/>â€œFine. Iâ€™m fine, just tiredâ€ she smiled lightly at Jared as he sat there on her bed. â€œYou think Angela is over Jon? Or is Dren just a distraction for her?â€ Veronica asked to try and divert the attention away from her for a bit.</span><br/>Â<br/>Â<br/>The knock at the door barely even registered to the Captain as she called out â€œEnter!â€<br/><br/>The door slid open with a hiss, â€œPlease come in gentlemen, there is hot water on the stove and tea bags on the counterâ€ Troy said as she sat at the table still. â€œNo need for all the formal talk tonight, been a long couple of days so I will try and make this as brief as possible so that we can all get to bedâ€ her tone came out calm and smooth as she sipped lightly at her tea.<br/><br/>When the pair joined her she smiled at them both then focused on Mik, â€œSo you ok with becoming part of my crew? Following my orders and the orders of those put in charge of you?â€ she asked getting straight to the point.
