He asked her a question and Braeden turned her head to look at him. She was trying to appear brave but she wasn't sure how well that come coming off. If she moved her hands they'd be shaking. "That year? I barley passed. Too distracted." She teased him, trying to sound more confident then she felt. "Mother was so angry, but I passed it the other years. Never the best student, but never the worst." Which was true, she was more a girl of action then one of study. Which was how she ended up being the head of the guard on the ground. The first head of the first guard on the ground in 100 years. If she lived to do it then history would know her name.

The dropship started moving faster and she sucked in a breath. Forcing her eyes to stay looking at him she tried to keep distracting herself. "Didn't I hear you had a girlfriend or something like it? Did you leave with her a promise or broken heart?" She had left her boyfriend with a broken heart--maybe. She wasn't sure how he felt but the fact that her choice was so easy told her that her heart wasn't involved.

Braeden didn't want him to fight for her--they were both too headstrong, and she wasn't in a back down or see reason mood--but the fact that he didn't, didn't even try hurt her more then she cared to admit. He just left! HE LEFT! . . . . Good! Braeden felt herself cry when he did, but by the next day she was forcing herself to move forward. The news of her permit spread, and she tried to put on a happy face but most of the time she avoided people in the first few days. According to rumor, Bellamy had been caught cheating when a surprise inspection found girl clothes in his room and that was why they were not speaking to see everyone right now. Some came by to offer her support, and others came back to find out if they could help get them back together. Either way she sent both along quickly.

Her father was angry. She was going to be an unwed mother. His disappoint hurt. Even said it. He told her that her choices had disappointed him. His exact words had been 'I expected better choices from you'. That had been the cherry on the heartbreak cake. It had left her in a broken hearted rage for a week.

Though time moved on, and eventually she learned to deal with things. Not well, but the anger couldn't last forever. She trying to force herself to change sectors, but she knew if she did then the bitterness would return when she wondered who he was sleeping with now. It had made her drag her feet, with each day being the one where she promised herself she would do it tomorrow. The paperwork was where on her tablet. Ready for her to fill out. She just had not done it.

Then came the day that some kid took a spacewalk, and everyone lost their minds. A month's of good air had been lost, and people got nervous when something like that happened. The council didn't help matters because they reacted like it was a huge deal. It came on the heels of a small riot in the farming sector, and guards were moves to help work there, which lead to every section being shorted changed. Which meant everyone was working double shifts. Sometimes the Ark had power fluxes, and to make this night worse, her section was having one which meant it was going to get cold tonight--not life endangering cold, but very uncomfortable cold. If you didn't have a special blanket you'd run the risk of getting life endangering cold.

It was then that Braeden knew that Bellamy was working in the farming section, and he could in no way leave to deal with anything. Which meant the girl in this floor was going to get cold tonight. Braeden was pissed she even thought about! She was pissed her even cared! However, when she went to make sure the blankets were being handed out, she checked out her own and then marked one to be checked out to Bellamy's name as well. She took them both to his place and used her override code to get in--which caused the girl to panic. Braeden shut the door behind her, and moved to toss the blanket down. "There is a power flux. You'll need this." She also tossed down part of her rations (both water and food) to make sure she'd be ok. Braeden turned and walked toward the door. 'Thank you,' the voice called out and Braeden paused for a long moment before walking out.

He was teasing her, and she loved the sound of his voice while they did this! It was different, almost huskier. Not his normal voice, and there was no formality in his tone! She moaned slightly when he first touched her between his legs, and her head moved back to bump into the wall! Oh there it was! The cure to the ache! Just like old times! She smiled at that, but teased him back. "Maybe you'll last longer this time." At the time they had been too embarrassed about things to tease and tell the other what they wanted. Now she had no trouble voicing it. He had been good that first time! She knew it now, even more then she did then as most girls would talk about how it hurt and they couldn't even get close to finishing. Not only had he taken care of her first, but she had been so close! And the later times they'd done it she had no trouble trouble finishing!

Her hands moved to his shoulders and she held on. His fingers toying with her down there, mixed with how turned on she already was lead her to feel everything started to quiver! "Bellamy," She moaned, pulling his shoulders to to get him closer for each new kiss. When she begin to come, she broke the kiss and moved to muffle the sounds into his shoulder--seeming to know that it would echo too much in here. As the first orgasm begun to ease, she reached down to push her pants and everything under them down, and had to force her legs to unwrap around him to get them off. She wasn't done! If anything she only wanted him more now.

Once then were off, she moved to pull his down too. They didn't make it past his knees before she was standing up on her toes and kissing him again. Her hand moving to wrap around him, and feel how much he had grown since she'd last touched him!

She heard him talking and she took in his words and hated them and apart of her hated him too in this moment, even though she knew she loved him too. She didn't want to be second to anyone! She deserved to be someone's first choice! But she would never be that with him! She wasn't even close, she was the officer he slept with for information! He was toxic! He was going to get everyone around him killed!

And she didn't want to drown with him. She knew it was bitterness and hurtfulness that made her say a lot of things, but right now she wanted him to just go away. "I don't want you around me. You've done nothing but use me, and I can never trust you. I rather do this alone, then do this with you." She told him, and it hurt her to say it, and she almost regretted it but she wasn't taking it back. "It would be safer for the baby anyway."

"Your name won't be mentioned," It wouldn't matter! She was involved! Even if she never found out, and he had gotten caught it would fall back on her! "-- then no one else will know that you know." He didn't understand that! If he was caught they would look at her, and wonder why she had not found this as SHE was the officer who was supposed to find these things! Then they'd noticed who she was sleeping with and everything would fall in to place! It wasn't as simple as keeping her name out of it! It was never going to be as simple as that!

"Thank you," She looked away, angry at his thanks, and not wanting to hear it. She might have agreed to keep her mouth shut for him, but she didn't like the choice he'd forced on her! She didn't want him thanking her, she wanted to make the pain go away! He'd broken her heart! "Do you want me to be in this child's life?" NOW he asked! NOW he was asking her things rather then demanding. "At least your priorities are clear this time." She snapped at him, displeased. She didn't know! She didn't know what she wanted or could even allow toward him! "I don't know!"

Braeden had her back toward to door when he opened it, as she was moving toward her boots rather then paying attention to who it was. The sound of the bang made her body jerk, and duck on instinct; yet at the same time she was twisting around to see Bellamy. "Bellamy!" Whom was falling toward the ground. She pushed her body up and ran toward the door, grabbing her own gun that was near it, and stepping into the hall to make sure whomever had been there wasn't waiting to shot him again--instead she only saw a figure running away. She fired once, but didn't wait to see if she hit or missed, only ducked back in and fell to her knees beside Bellamy.

Her hands went to his side where all the blood was coming from. "Bellamy! Look at me!" How bad was it? What was happening? She was pressing hard on the area, panic building in her. "GET A MEDIC!" She yelled when she heard bodies in the hall! "Get doctor Griffin!" She could hear the tremor in her voice. Turning she looked back down at him again; "Help is coming, just hang on, ok. Just keep looking at me! Don't try and move, just stay here until they come!" She wished now that her life was different and she was a doctor rather then a guard so she could help him. She knew nothing about how to help keep him alive. Nothing.

Her whole body felt as if it was falling slowly from some high. It was beautiful and scary, and she loved it. "Not bad Quinn," He teased before nipping her lip, kissing her lightly where he could reach and then going back in for another deep kiss. "Not bad at all," She laughed and her hands ran over his skin in a soothing manner, that contrasted to her very playful and very untrue words. "I was faking it." She told him, with a large grin. "Trying to boots your ego."

They both knew that wasn't trust but she love playing with him. "I am sure with some more practice you will end up better." Then again they had been doing this since they were 16. There had been about a two year break but it was enough she didn't count it in the long term. Besides, she was sure he had not been a saint in that two years--and she knew she hadn't--so that was still training time. "I've almost got you trained just right!"
