A gasp escaped when the door was opened.  “A bed?”  She asked rhetorically.  “Aww You got us a bed…”  Though the hammock had been an unusual experience for her, her first time in one, she’d not expected a bed.<br/><br/>In her previous quarters she had a cots.  Though Anderson had offered to have a bed to be special ordered to fit the quarters.  She declined.  He knew the woman had lived in luxury with his friend and her former benefactor.  Despite being spoiled, by his old buddy, he admired that she insisted on not being given special treatment once a member of his crew.  But he did wonder if it was also part of the melancholy she first had after losing her surrogate father.  At least being aboard his ship he could keep an eye on her, she’d also began to bounce back after a while to the vivacious person he’d grown so fond of.<br/><br/>As her Knight escorted her about the room, showing her all the amenities he’d arranged, she beamed up at him.  “You’ve spoiled me.  It is much more than I need.  But I thank you.”  She bowed her head and took his hands in hers.  She brought them to her mouth kissing each digit tenderly.<br/><br/>She then brought them about her waist.  “Earlier you said such lovely things to me and I wasn’t certain I’d quite been able to explain fully how I feel about you.  As I explained, I have fallen in in love with you.”  Her and went to his cheek as she looked deeply in his eyes.  He looked down humbly in the way he often did.  It was still as though he doubted his worthiness. She tilted his head to force him to look in her eyes. “Don’t to that.  I don’t love easily, I don’t let myself.”  She smiled tenderly.  “But you have captured my heart and I feel a connection between us I just can’t explain…”  Her eyes filled with tears and one spilled down her cheek.<br/><br/>Raising slightly up on her toes, her arms wrapped about his neck.  In a husky tone she whispered, “Make love to me…”  She then engaged him a soft tender kiss.
