"True Jennie but we just have to keep going.life will not wait for us to catch up."As soon as she asked the other three if they had any stories to tell he grabbed a chair spun it around back wards.
Sitting in it he rested his chin on the back brace of the chair."Yes mates out with it and please do not leave any sordid details untold."Keeping his playful grin on him.

He listened to the others as each told about themselves. He knew this was the beginning of forming the closeness colonist had to develop to make those first few years. However, he still found this difficult, the opening up to strangers.

As she listened to Beth's story she noticed the reaction of Chase.He was listening but there was something else on his face was it shyness perhaps a bit uncomfortable.She was not a good judge on others emotions so she let is go.
"I think that is a very sweet story Beth I am glad you have found your soul mate."Smiling as she talked.

He noticed Jennifer looking at him again, he smiled. She was attracted and maybe later more could come of it. But for now, friendship. He would need to first make sure he was not misreading her glances, and how to let her know this was not a time where he would be interested. The pain of losing Emma was still too fresh.

Beth smiles "Thank You Jennifer" she catches the glance between Jennifer and Chase "What about you Sis?"
Sara smiles "Mine happened on the ship I meet Troy I know it sounds weird but it was love at first sight she holds her belly I have the Proof of our love growing in me" she smiles

He was listening to everyones story when he noticed Jennie and Chase exchanging glances.He let it go even though every fiber in his being wanted to rib them.
Instead he turned his attention to Sarah listening to her talk about how she met Troy.

It is not her duty to take care of the man she loves it is her right to do so as she is not under any obligation from the outside world to do it. She does it because her heart tells her that it is the right thing to do.
He then rolled onto his back staring at the bunk that was above him trying not to sneak glances at her doing her morning wake up rituals.
As for privacy, that is something I am not allowed to have no use to. My family is very close as we live together in a tent in the desert to take care of the horses we raise when on Earth, and when in space me and my brother share quarters, always have even when given the option to not to. We’re use to each other’s company and wouldn’t have it any other way. However, with you…it is different. As you are not my sister or related to me in any way and I wish to peruse you as a mate. I…feel the need to keep you a mystery to myself physically till the day we are able to be married, so to not be tempted to do create a life with you out of desire.
He hoped that came out the way that it was suppose to and that she understood that he was just old fashioned and wanted to keep her as she was till they were married officially and able to, in his mind, procreate without any risk of one or the other running as marriage would bind them together permanently, and that he did this out of respect, honor, and love for her.

Ivan was keeping himself occupied with thoughts of what was going to happen now that the colony was going to be his life and listened to what the others were saying about their past and their life before. He couldn’t help but see Kelly getting a bit uneasy in his seat and knew that the man was cueing in on the somewhat unique connection between Jennie and Chase. He knew that feeling all too well so didn’t say anything to it just passed it as the backdrop for the conversation of love that seemed to be going on.
A child yes is proof of love between two people as it is a commitment to be forever bound by that child in care and in love of the child. I truly hope that Troy will be able to be present when you are able to give birth and to celebrate with you the culmination of the act of love that produced an offspring.
He had to slap himself mentally a little he was going to have to work on speaking more plainly in standard then this to get his ideas across without sounding like he was being antisocial. He took a sip of tea before speaking.
The most interesting story I can give to you as a token of my life would be the one that lead to the injury that had to be fixed while I was just getting to know you all. It happened when I was back on Earth with my brother in one of the slow times for the trade we were both in. We were breaking in a difficult horse that Father wished to put into the pens with the other horses.
Well, we had intentions of breaking the horse in to allowing people to ride on it. That was when the horse bucked up threw my brother off threw me to the ground and then was going to land on my brother. Out of instinct and love for my brother I got to my feet and grabbed him shoving him out from under the horse’s feet. I thought I had cleared too only to find out a few moments later when the horse hove came down on my knee that I hadn’t.
My knee healed and was cared for by my family to the point I was limping around and able to walk but it wasn’t repaired all the way. Needless to say the good doctor thought I could do better and so fixed it so I could walk normally. I guess that would be the most interesting story I could tell as most of my life pretty much has been horses, sand, family, and trade.
Getting that out of the way he physically relaxed not to be so tense in his chair and held onto the cup that had tea in it taking a drink out of it as if to signal he was enjoying the conversation and was really beginning to relax and enjoy the other people at the table’s company despite the absence of his brother who he was rarely separated from.

She walked toward the end of the bed that they were laying in and sat down on the floor, listening to Ivan as he spoke of it not being a woman's duty to take care of her man, but her right to do so and that her heart tells her it is the right thing to do, under no obligations. She hugged her knees for a couple brief moments, thinking that he's right. She is not duty bound and doesn't want to feel obligated, as she believed he wouldn't want her to feel as such. She then hooked her feet under the bed, for extra support and started doing some push ups "You're right, Cerius. It was a bad choice of words to use duty for a woman to want to take care of her man. I want to out of love and affection, my heart telling me that taking care of you is the right thing to do." She only hoped that his heart told him the same thing for her
She paused after about 40 sit up and looked up at him from the floor, from her angle, he would be upside-down, but looking just as good. He explained that privacy, or lack thereof, is not permitted in his family. This drew a question in her mind. He and Ivan seemed to have always been together and used to that fact but he wouldn't change a thing. She smiled a bit as he told her it was different with her, as she is not related to him in any fashion. She looked a bit amused at that, and is thankful that she is not related to this very charming man "I am very happy to hear that you would like to pursue me as a potential wife, just like I would like to have you as a husband." Did he just propose to her? Nah, he is just voicing how he feels "I believe we all have a bit of mystery to us, even if we are inseparable and have already joined in the act(s) of procreation. Even if we join in that manner, I would still wish to be your wife because I love you, Cerius. Although, I understand your wish to wait until marriage, I do not wish to put any added pressure on you, even if that includes you wanting to take me to bed and physically get to know me better."
She wanted to make love to him but she also understood his wish to remain celibate until they can be married. There was no desire in her to run from him, no matter what happened between them or what they decided to do. She would stick by him, through thick and thin. She would protect him as she knows he, and Ivan, would protect her.. and Skye. Just as she's devoting her life to the Colony, her life is now equally devoted to man laying on the bed across the room from her

She noticed Chase gave her a couple of strange looks.Taking a sip of her coffee she wondered what that was about.It was not an angry look or anything like that it was just different.
Deciding to let it go she turned her attention back to the group seeing who was going to pipe in next.

He sighed and lay out on the bed.
It is not that I do not desire you because trust me I do. It is that…my family has tradition and this is a part of it. You have to understand to my Father guarding our honor is the greatest gift we could give the family as men, and my brother will be the same way with Skye or whoever he ends up with. We will wait out of love and devotion to our mate or perspective wife.
He rubbed his face and hair as if to will her to come to him and stop with the exercises because his desire was to hold her in his arms and since that didn’t work he found himself catching her on the floor and pulling her into his arms.
I am sorry; I can’t stand to be apart from you anymore then necessary. It is unbearable to think about my life without you in it right now.
He bruised back some of her hair.
You are a strong women and able to be on her own. You need a strong man to be with you. I am that man in my mind. I want to care for you like you should be cared for. You are my princess and I don’t want you to go through another day not knowing that.
With that he kissed her deeply and then gently touched her face afterwards looking into her eyes lovingly.

She nodded in understanding, humor lighting her eyes briefly as he told her that it wasn't that he didn't desire her, it was the honor that his father instilled into his children. She knew that he desired her, can see it in his eyes. Even if he lied to her, telling her that he didn't desire her, she could still see it in his eyes. She doubted, though, he would tell her that he didn't desire her, even that is a possibility. She smiled at him, although it looked upside down from his point of view "That is one of the things I love about you, Cerius. The honor that you, and Ivan, hold in your heart. Honor in men is a very noble and endearing quality" and rare, she mused briefly to herself. "I've seen Skye and Ivan together, before she went on ahead to the Colony planet and they are crazy for each other, just like you and me. I've a feeling that he will wait for her."
She went back to her sit-ups, unaware of the vibes that he was trying to send to her that he wanted her to join him. She only got 10 more sit-ups in before she caught a movement. Before she knew what happened, Cerius joined her on the floor, pulling her into his arms. She went willingly
Melting into his arms as he apologized for not being able to be apart from her for that long, the thought of her not being a part of his life being unbearable. She smiled at him, as he brushed a lock of her hair back. She felt the same way, she didn't want to think of a life without him either
Her heart went all aflutter at his next words. She may be able to live on her own with her strength but the thought of being alone all her life was unbearable. She was about to respond to his declaration of love when he leaned into her and kissed her senseless, curling her toes in the sheer pleasure of the kiss
Afterwards, she looked at him 'In my mind, you are that strong man that desires to take care of me as a man should take care of a woman, and I am the woman to take care of her man of strength just as he desires to take care of her. When I am in your arms, I feel like a princess, a queen even, and you are my prince, whom I know will make a great king." She smiled at him, looking into his charming eyes as lovingly as he looked into hers. She enjoyed the warmth of his arms around her, warming her and wrapping her in the warmth of his love

"Well, I've been sitting here long enough. I need to stretch my legs." He stood up. "Think I'll go for walk." He picked up his cup and went to the reclaimer.

"Have a good walk Chase and don't get lost on this dredge."He took a drink of his coffee."I swear I will kiss the ground once we get to leave this bus we are living on.
"Chase has the right idea to bad there is not much to walk to up here."
