â€œLt. Josephine Roberts...â€ her name was said slowly as her superior officer looked over her profile. Though why the fuck she was even doing that Jo had no clue, seeing how Maggie had looked over profile enough times to know every little detail about Jo. Hell that brief affair they had a year old Maggie knew of things that were not in that file, yet here she was; forced to stand at attention while some bitch with hurt feelings made her wait. By the Goddess some chicks did not know how to let shit go. Sure, Jo may have been in the wrong when she was having a bit of fun with the young Airman in that storage closet, but that was no reason for Maggie to just become a straight bitch to her. Jo had even gone out of her way and apologized profusely. Practically begging to be forgiven. How many people did Maggie know who would go to some barely habitable planet just to get her a bouquet of flowers?<br/><br/>One. That was how many. Jo was never one of commitment, Maggie knew this getting into the relationship with her. For fuck's sake she had left the current little piece of tail she had been fooling with to have a try out with Maggie. Perhaps it was the time the had spent together? They had been together for nearly a year when Jo got that 'itch', that need, that desire to out and get someone new. Then low and behold that spicy little red head had been transferred to their ship and...Mmmm....Jo could not help herself. A few soft words whispered in the girl's ear, a light nibble on that ear and before they knew it Jo had her moaning her name for all the universe to hear. Well maybe not the universe, but most of that deck for sure. It was certainly enough noise to draw some noisy bodies, which ended up getting back to Maggie.<br/><br/>Still, Jo had not tried to lie about what had happened, coming clean about it and apologizing as often as she good. Mega bitch even had her on patrol in the furthest regions from the combat zones for two torturous months and still held a grudge when she came back. Now there was this shit. After watching Maggie look up at her with those baby blues then back down at the file, for what count Jo could give a fuck it was too fucking many simple. Jo had enough and slammed her palms down on the desk, â€œWe really going to keep this shit up Maggie?!â€ she demanded.<br/><br/>Maggie looked up, brushing one of her golden curls back from her face, â€œKeep what up?â€ she asked innocently though there was a slight smirk on those bow shaped lips. Oh how Jo remembered those lips, how soft they were and how they felt over parts of her body.<br/><br/>Focusing on the present and not the past, â€œTHIS SHIT! Why are you still treating me like this?! It was more then a year ago you can't possibly still be sore about what happened?!â€<br/><br/>This seemed to spark something in Maggie as she stood so that she was eye to eye with Jo, â€œOh...so I am supposed to forget when my woman is caught pleasuring another? When the woman I care for and whom I was planning a future with is caught red handed with another?â€ she rounded the desk so that she could get in Jo's face, who instantly realized losing her cool was a bad idea. â€œA woman I confided in and whom I wanted to start a family with....I am supposed to just let that go?â€ her tone was cold and it cut through Jo like a knife through butter. It became hard to hold her gaze though Jo managed if only for the sake of her pride.<br/><br/>â€œYou knew who I was when we got together....â€ she began though she kept her  voice neutral. â€œStop kidding yourself to think this was all my fault. Talking kids and a family and shit when we are in a war? Really? Who would want to bring some life into this world? Just so we can watch it die one day when the enemies blow a hole in the side of our ship? Come on now be for real....â€ she sighed and looked away for a moment before meeting Maggie's gaze again. â€œI did not mean to hurt you....truly with all my heart....just....â€ she sighed again, â€œLet's be honest here. Eventually you would have left me or I would have died out in space being my reckless self. At least now you have a chance to find someone who wants the same things as youâ€ Jo said trying to be civil about this and hoping to finally bury this between them.<br/><br/>Maggie looked at her for a long moment before she sighed and lowered her head, â€œJo...I...â€ she stopped herself before she said something that she would regret or could somehow ruin this peace between them. â€œGo to your barracks. We will have a debriefing in about an hour. Shower, change into something clean and get something to eat. The enemy is supposed to be having some secret weapon and you have been tasked as one of the pilots who is going to be sent out to find information on itâ€ Maggie said turning and going back to her desk to sign off on Jo's approval. â€œTry and control yourself around the new recruits....â€ Maggie said as she looked up with a grin, â€œThey have not gotten a chance to hear the rumors about youâ€<br/><br/>Jo grinned back and saluted Maggie, â€œNo promisesâ€ she said as she gave a crisp about face and exited the room to head to her barracks. Glad that finally that piece of her past was over and done with, she could not focus on the important things.<br/><br/>A pair of young crewmen passed by, giggling and blushing like school girls when Jo paused to give them a teasing smile and wink. Watching them walk away she shook her head to herself, â€œMmmhmm.! So many more important things to focus onâ€ she said to herself before she adjusted the bag on her shoulder and continued on to her barracks.
