Alistair gave Cassandra a friendly smile.  Keeping secrets on who was sleeping with whom was more or less impossible on a ship of this size.  "I'm heading back to my quarters."  He returned her salute and gestured for her to come along with him.  "I haven't even stopped since early this morning."<br/><br/>He walked at a leisurely pace, palming open the door to his quarters.  "I've had it keyed so you can get in too."  He informed her as he stepped inside.  He removed his cap and tossed it with practiced ease onto the cluttered desk.  As XO, he probably did more paperwork than anyone else on the ship.   And that included the quartermaster (for no other reason that he double checked everything before it went out, whether or not it went to the Skipper).<br/><br/>"So tell me Lieutenant."  He reached over and gathered her in his arms, tucking her close to him.  "Do you have anything planned for the next half hour or so?"
