One night while in orbit over Illium, Cdr. Megan Shepard and Miranda Lawson lay naked cuddling each other in
Shepard's very luxurious bed in the captain's quarters. Shepard was soundly asleep, which wasn't surprising
considering the intensity of their passionate lovemaking less than an hour ago, but Miranda was wide awake, as she wanted to savor every tender moment she could spend with Shepard because they did not have much time to be intimate during the day. Miranda constantly wondered why Shepard, a woman herself, would be in love with her instead of Jacob or even Thane, as she did now while enjoying the feel of the high quality cotton comforter and bedsheet against her bare, smooth skin. She smiled at the thought of how cold she was to Shepard at the start of their accquaintance, but Shepard continued to chip away at her ice queen demeanor by continually pursuing her and eventually getting her to open up. Love soon followed after, partially due to the fact that Shepard helped her get Oriana away from her father and the traitorous Niket. One thing led to another, and before heading off to face the Collectors, Shepard and Miranda made love to each other in the engine room, much to Shepard's surprise and puzzlement. Still smiling, she looked straight at Shepard's beautiful face and planted a kiss on her lips.'Oh Megan...' Miranda thought just as she started to notice Shepard's heartbeat, which was perfectly in sync with hers, through the hi-threadcount comforter they were under, courtesy of Cerberus.
Cerberus. Miranda had cut the Illusive Man off when he had tried to order Shepard not to destroy the Collector base, and in turn ordered Miranda to not let Shepard blow the abomination to kingdom come, effectively ending her own promising career in Cerberus. Despite Shepard destroying that base according to the original OPORD(operational order), the Illusive Man was a whole lot less than pleased with both of them. It didn't matter for Miranda, as she was more than willing to sacrifice everything for Shepard and for her to be happy, and the feeling was mutual. She wondered what Shepard had to give up in order to be with her. Suddenly, memories hit her like a round from an X98 Widow sniper rifle.
Megan gave up her life, though not intentionally, just to meet her. Megan having to face the crew, who were giving her weird looks constantly now, on a daily basis. Megan getting looks of disdain from everyone, even asari, for holding hands with her in public. Megan storming out of her mother's office in tears after a particularly loud screaming match due to her introducing Miranda as her girlfriend. Megan breaking down in tears after her mother sent her a very scathing extranet message disowning her due to the screaming match, and her relationship with Miranda. Megan being discriminated against by other women. "Oh,my god..."Miranda breathed. She may have given up her career for Shepard, but Shepard had given up her dignity and her VERY LIFE for Miranda and her happiness, both literally and figuratively. Hot tears of sadness and regret started slipping down her exquisitely smooth, beautiful face. Miranda tried forcing herself not to cry, but to no avail. Soon, she was heaving small sobs, while more tears started running down her cheeks.
"Miri,what's wrong?"Megan awoke almost instantly when she heard Miranda sobbing and felt the splash of her hot tears against her own bare skin. "It's nothing Megan...really. It's nothing."Miranda lied."Don't lie to me honey,you're terrible at that."Shepard purred reassuringly."I...I...I...um...took away your happiness, your life. I'm so sorry Megan!"Miranda sobbed. "Look at me,Miri." Miranda meekly obeyed. "You KNOW that's bull****. You're my happiness, my life. Yeah, I got disowned by my mom and I'm discriminated against. So what? As long as I have you, I'm happy enough."Megan said seriously while stroking Miranda's face. "I...well...why me?" Miranda asked, her voice breaking. "Why do you drop everything for me? Why do you always put youself at risk when we're in combat just to make sure I don't even get a scratch?"Megan had hundreds of replies in her head, but she carefully thought it out for quite awhile before answering."That's because I truly love you Miri. You are honestly my happiness,my life. Do you know how much it hurts me to see you sad or hurt? It tears me apart worse than any weapon ever invented." "What else are you not saying dear? I KNOW there has to be more reasons."Miranda sobbed."Well, I guess you remind me a lot of myself, given that your dad was as demanding as mine...and your parents were always absent like mine..."Megan trailed off. Tears were forming in her beautiful green eyes.
"What do you mean,sweetie?" Miranda asked tearfully."Y'know I was a spacer kid whose parents were usually out fighting right?" "Yeah..." "Well, they were unbelievably demanding, just like your father. They were the reason why I pushed myself through N7 training. They were the reason why I stubbornly held the ground at Elysium singlehandedly. They expected the galaxy and more from me. They were NEVER happy with what I accomplished! They ALWAYS demanded MORE!"Megan nearly screamed, tears streaming down her perfect face."I see...but why didn't you pick Jacob or any man on this ship..."Miranda was interrupted by Megan before she finished. "That's because men are not to be trusted at all! They are ALL scumbags!!"Megan shouted, slamming her fist into the headboard of the bed. By now, tears of anger and resentment were pouring out of her eyes in a steady flow."Why? There ARE some really good men in this galaxy, like Jacob. They aren't ALL scumbags."Miranda stated. Inwardly, she was starting to feel afraid, as she had never seen this angry, bitter side of the woman who was her commanding officer and only lover. "Maybe. But when I was a vulnerable teenaged girl onboard the ships with horny, teenaged boys, that was the period my parents left me alone the most. It's like...they WANTED it to happen..." "Wanted what to happen,Megan honey?"Miranda was truly interested now."A group of 3 boys who I took as my good friends cornered me after school and dragged me down to the deserted, lower decks of the ship...and...and...RAPED me.Over and over and over again!"Megan spat out in between huge, heavy sobs."And when they were done, two of them even had the nerve to say they ENJOYED it! I never felt so...lonely and utterly helpless...and nobody was there to help me...nobody saved me..."She sobbed, much softer this time.
"You never told anyone about this?"Miranda asked incredulously."Of course I did. But my parents wouldn't believe me. And the MPs couldn't hold them, because it was my word against three of theirs."Megan sniffled. Her tears were drying up now."And that's why I love you so much Miranda. You're the only one who can truly understand me in this galaxy. And you're the only one who believed in me for a very long time."Megan half sobbed, half smiled, wiping away her tears which had now stopped flowing."Well... in that case... how about you prove your love to me then, lovergirl?" Miranda purred with a very naughty grin, trying to lighten the mood. "You didn't have to ask, Miri baby." Megan replied with a smile and a dirty look in her eyes. "And Miri? Can I tell you another secret?" "Of course,Megan." "From the very first time I met you, I couldn't stop ogling at you. Especially your ass." "Oh you dirty,dirty arse of a... uuunnhhhh!"Miranda cried out in pleasure as Megan buried her face deep in Miranda's crotch. Megan looked up at Miranda with a very naughty grin, and their eyes met and held each other for a long while before they embraced each other and shared a deep, passionate kiss. The tears started up again in Miranda and Megan's eyes, but these were tears of joy and contentment this time around.
