Marcus listened as Susan yelled at him in front of all the people in the Zocalo. His eyes shifted to where his friends were sitting, bad enough that Derrick and Steve were hearing this, but Shai Alyt Neroon was also listening. The Minbari, who had only recently began to accept humans, was laughing openly.

SMAACK!! The slap was sudden and it definitely got his attention. "Marcus pay attention when I am talking to you." The temperature rose suddenly in Marcus' blood. She had definitely crossed the line.

He smiled evilly. "Susan, being a gentleman, I can't hit you, but . . . " The commander actually began to look nervous. "If you ever slap me again I will kiss you." He smiled thinking that would end the outburst.

SMAACK!! The blow almost knocked out a tooth. He hadn't really planned on backing up his bluff, but now he had to. So he kissed her, and it was beginning to get interesting, as she started to lean into it.

DAMN! He tasted blood as her teeth sank into his lower lip, and she didn't let go. Just as he was beginning to think that she meant to chew it up and swallow it, she finally released his lip and stepped back. Marcus stepped back and examined his lip.

SMAACK!! This blow was even harder than the first two. Was she daring him? The funny thing was she met him halfway this time and tangled her fingers in his hair as they kissed. To be honest even his bloody lip didn't put a damper on things. This was good.

Susan Ivanova stepped back never releasing his hair and began dragging him towards the core tube.

As they entered the core tube Marcus heard Susan muttering under her breath too low for him to completely understand her, but he did hear the word Bitch. He was looking for a way out when she spoke up. "Well the little bitch just missed her chance."

"Excuse me?" He was definitely lost.

"She has had almost two years to figure out if she wanted you and now I am tired of waiting."

That definitely didn't help. "Excuse me?" He repeated.

"Little Miss Perfect. If she hasn't figured out by now how right you are for her, well then she just missed her chance."

He was beginning to think she was speaking a different language. "Susan, what are you talking about."

"The girl you were talking about on the Whitestar. She should have marked her territory, because by Monday morning you are gonna be mine."

Marcus had began laughing about halfway through her tirade. "And what are you laughing at." If anything she seemed to get angrier.

"I guess I should have listened to Neroon."

"What, the Minbari love god?" She yelled sarcastically.

"Susan I was talking about you on the Whitestar." He said with all traces of laughter gone. Susan stood for a moment stunned as the coretube came to a halt on her deck.

"Susan I am sorry you had o find out like this. I hope you can forgive me." Marcus, said fearing she would now hate him for having fooled her.

She said nothing for a couple of minutes and so Marcus turned to leave.

"Marcus, maybe we could talk about this over breakfast monday morning."

"I understand Susan you've had a long week." He started to walk away.

Susan caught him in about two steps. "Sheesh virgins, 'I'll talk to you about it at breakfast' means you aren't leaving here till then. " She opened her door and drug him in.

THE END
