"Smile. We're supposed to be in love."

Lee grimaced.

"If you look like this on the honeymoon, I'd hate to see you at the wedding."

Lee tried to make his smile look more natural. Somehow, it was even harder to be undercover when he wasn't completely pretending.

"Do you like doing this?"

"I guess." Lee cast a glance over his shoulder, trying to find the suspected counterfeiter in the crowd of couples on the dance floor. "We're still supposed to be working."

She grinned. "I just wondered if you were having fun pretending to be married to me."

"Oh, yeah. Definitely." He looked over his shoulder again, trying to keep track of their mark.

Kara snorted. "Oh, Lee. You are such a bad liar."

"What?"

"Don't tell me." She started to laugh. "You wish we weren't pretending. You wish we could have a big wedding and a honeymoon somewhere romantic with… I don't know… champagne and a heart-shaped hot tub."

Lee opened his mouth to deny this, but he wasn't quick enough for Kara, apparently. "Oh, don't even try. I know. I'll always know."

There was a pause and Lee's hands drifted down to Kara's waist.

"Would you do it?" he asked.

"Do what?"

"Champagne and a heart-shaped hot tub."

She smirked. "If you can find a ship in the fleet with a heart-shaped hot tub, you might have yourself a deal."

Thank you! I felt like I'd been writing a lot of angst lately so I had to write this.

ADORABLE!! (And not post-poof!!) Love love love. I love the undercover construct in any scenario but the addition of adorable, flirty, bantery goodness is even better! ;)

Thanks! :)

And not post-poof!!

Yes, for once! :DDD

Re: Undercover (G) n_e_star June 1 2012, 17:03:04 UTC

And the next day Lee started building one.

Re: Undercover (G) plaid_slytherin June 2 2012, 01:18:48 UTC

OMG, yes. LOL.

Re: Undercover (G) mserrada June 2 2012, 01:06:38 UTC

Dang! I think she's pretty safe with that last line. Too bad :)

Yay for happy pilots!

Re: Undercover (G) rdave1 June 4 2012, 12:14:55 UTC

OMG!! Adorable! For those two I would build a ship with a heart-shaped tub.:)

Re: Undercover (G) plaid_slytherin June 6 2012, 01:38:56 UTC

Thanks! :D

Re: Undercover (G) scifishipper June 4 2012, 21:48:17 UTC

HA! I so want Lee to find a heart-shaped tub and make Kara keep her end of the deal! WRITE IT! (I am sure Cloud 9 has SOMETHING!) :)
