And another...
5 Minutes Later Charla couldn't help but laugh a little as she watched Legion do the robot in the middle of the room, and the fact that he was beatboxing at the some time didn't help. Once he finished with his dance Charla stood up and walked over to him.
"That was great Legion." She said, her mandibles opening slightly.
"Compliment accepted." Legion responded, his head flaps lifting then closing again.
Charla stood in front of the geth, looking up at him. "So do you know any other dances?" She asked quietly.
"Negative. However, we could perform a search on requested dance." Legion said as he looked down at Charla.
Charla paused for a moment, trying to think of what dance they could both enjoy. "How about a slow dance?"
"Affirmative, searching." Legion said, followed by a small clicking sound. "Dance sequence learned. Will you join us Charla?"
"Yes, I would love to." Charla said as she moved closer to him.
Legion slowly reached up and placed his hands on Charla's waist, pulling her close to him. Charla placed her hands on Legion's shoulders, her arms falling down his chest. The two stared at each other for a minute, then began to sway slowly from side to side. The glow from the shields outside of the window continued to light the room with a dim, waving blue pattern. Charla was happier than she had been in a long time, and she was enjoying every minute of her time with Legion. Legion began to get that unfamiliar sensation again, the one he had felt as he watched Charla sleeping in his arms the previous day. He tried to understand what the sensation was, but he could not reach any conscensus on the issue.
After a few minutes Charla slowly moved herself closer to Legion, bringing her head to rest on his chest
as they continued to sway back and forth. The metal of Legion's chest was cold, but she didn't mind. She closed her eyes as they danced, completely content. She didn't want the moment to end.
A minute later she lifted her head off of Legion's chest, looking up at him. He realized Charla had lifted her head and looked down at her, his eye narrowing its gaze to focus on her face. The two stared at each other for a while, until the door opened, half of the crew falling in over each other. Jacob, Kenneth, Gabby, Joker, Kelly, Kasumi, and a few others pulled themselves up. Legion and Charla released each other and stared at the group that had just fallen into the room.
"Hey you two, how's it going?" Joker said as he got to his feet.
Charla's mandibles rose up as she rubbed the back of her neck. "How long have you all been out there?"
"We just got there, I promise." Kenneth said, but he was swiftly elbowed by Gabby.
"Don't lie Kenneth. We all got here just before Legion stopped singing." Gabby said, giving Kenneth a death glare.
"Ya, and we probably could have stayed longer if
somebody could learn to keep a door cracked." Joker said as he shot a look at Kasumi.
"What, I was distracted." Kasumi responded.
"Intrusion on the privacy of fellow crewmembers is prohibited." Legion stated.
"Ya, it was a heavy risk." Jacob said, cracking a small smile.
"But the reward was worth it." Kelly finished what Jacob had started to say.
"No, you ruined it." Hawthorne said as he looked over at Kelly.
"Hey guys, we should probably leave...let the two lovebirds have some alone time." Joker said with a smirk.
The group of eavesdroppers turned and walked out of the room, Kasumi turned just before she left. "You two make a cute couple by the way." Kasumi gave the two a smile then walked out, the door closing behind
her.
After a brief pause, Charla broke the silence. "We really need to find a more private place for our dates."
"Acknowledged."
