There's a change in pace
Of fantasy and taste
Do you like good music?
Do you like to dance? Oh yeah.
Hangin' out for a body shop at night
Ain't it strange what we do to feel alright? Oh yeah.
So when will you call?
I'm experienced Oh yeah
Face to face
And back to back
You see and feel
My sex attack
Sing it
Flesh, flesh for fantasy
We want
Flesh, flesh for fantasy
It's after midnight
Are you feelin' alright oh yeah
Turn on the light, babe
Are you someone else tonight?
Neighbour to neighbour, door to door
Don't ask questions, there's time for it all Oh yeah.
Face to face
And back to back
You see and feel
My sex attack
Sing it
Flesh, flesh for fantasy
We cry
Flesh, flesh for fantasy

Alexia stood on the catwalk waiting for Tatyana. He was excited about the trip but slightly worried for his brother. Not that he was in danger, more his rash actions and the fact he might do something crazy. Alexia sighed; Valerie would keep him in line and out of trouble. He smiled thinking that his brother finally had someone to care for him. He was happy and slightly jealous but since dinner that jealousy had been fading. Alexia found himself hopelessly enamored with Tatyana and as much as he would like to believe he was falling in love, it was a lie. He had indeed already hit bottom, he had fallen into an abyss of lust and love.
He was gazing out toward the ship. It wasn’t sleek like a fighter but knowing Silvas it was modified to be twice as fast. He laughed but it was cut short by the sound of footsteps on the catwalk behind him. There were two pairs of steps and Alexia mused that Valerie or perhaps Janus had walked Tatyana here. As he turned the scene was much worse.
Great Maker!
He mumbled it under his breath. Now was not the time for this. He cringed watching Tara and Aliesta walking toward him. He sighed again. “Perhaps I can get rid of them quickly.”
Ah, Lord Refa.
Both of the women bowed and out of curtsey he returned the gesture.
So why is it you didn’t tell us you were back on the colony?
Tara was playfully tugging at the edge of his coat, while Aliesta stood grinning. He knew they were up to something.
I really don’t have time for such pleasantries at the moment.
He stated it briskly gently pushing her hand away. Tara frowned.
No time? What about dinner or is she time more well spent?
He rolled his eyes. He needed to think fast to get these two away before Tatyana arrived. He didn’t know how she would feel about such things but he had a feeling it wouldn’t be pretty.
It was business.
The women both sighed.
That is what you call it and here all of this time we thought you worked as an assassin.
They had him cornered on the catwalk and that’s when he saw her. Tatyana walking toward them at the far end of the walkway. He glanced down at the two woman and cringed internally.
My dears I am very busy at the moment. Perhaps I can stop by when I return.
He was smiling politely but he was wondering if they would survive a fall from the catwalk. He glanced down and sighed realizing it was far too high.
Tara was the first to catch his words.
A trip, oh, take me with you.
He scowled.
No Now the quicker you allow me to attend to business the quicker I can return.
they would have none of it and stood their ground. Tatyana had no doubt seen them and was nearly within earshot. He really didn’t want to telepathically force them away but the idea was quickly growing on him as he pushed past both woman hoping they would get the message and leave.
He walked down the walkway toward Tatyana smiling.
Lady Tatyana it is a pleasure to see you again.
He bows and gives her a light kiss on the lips.
Business indeed.
The voice came from behind it was Tara, as usual the one eager to start any and all trouble. He sincerely wondered why she didn’t like Silvas more. He sighs looking into Tatyana’s eyes. Taking Tatyana’s arm, he was determined to waltz right past Tara and Aliesta and right into the ship, no matter what they said on the way. “Now here’s hoping Tara can keep her mouth shut.” Of all the things in the universe that was certain to be the least likely at the moment.
