"And that is an understatement," he said with a smile, keeping his eyes locked on hers. He had seen her face before, obviously, but looking at her now, it was like seeing her in a new light. Her cheeks were slightly flushed from the activity they had just engaged in, her blue eyes sparkling, her hair tussled from bed. He had to break her gaze for a moment, telling himself that if he didn't stop, he wasn't going to be able to stop himself from taking her here and now on the flight deck. That would get him into a LOT of trouble.
Luke looked back at her, softening his gaze, smiling. "You know how adorable you look when you do that, right?" he said, raising his eyebrows slightly. He tilted his head back, letting out a breath, closing his eyes. For once, he felt like he could actually fall asleep right here in this chair, if she stayed.

The two of them going at it on the flightdeck would not have settled well. Hell of a lot of trouble, wouldn't even begin to cover it. Not to mention, they just weren't that close. She like him, but she wasn't that crazy for him yet. If, and when the time came, there would be safer, smarter places for that sort of activity.
Alliana gave a small chuckle, nuzzling her nose against his in a smile. The world seemed to stop when she was with him. There was nothing wrong, no pain, no lies. Everything he felt, she felt, was real. "I do it for you." she purred with a smirk. In truth, it just happened, and she didn't even try, but it kept him guessing. He was a guy, he didn't understand women.
She felt like this was the perfect time to push the boundary. She slid from her chair, into his, adjusting comfortably next to his beating heart. Ally closed her eyes, taking a deep breath and opened them again with a warm smile. She leaned up and gave a short, sweet kiss to his waiting lips. Not hungry, just tender and appreciative. She wanted to stay with him tonight, wanted to be with him under the stars.

"Mmhmm," he'd had a feeling. He'd though he got a pretty good idea about women from living in a house with three of them. He watched his Mom work her magic on his Dad, he could be one of the most stubborn men in the world, and yet, she would say the word and he would fall at her knees. His sister's could be manipulative, but he'd grown wise to it over the years, and they respected him for knowing when not to cave - didn't meant they didn't try though.
Luke didn't complain or move when Ally slid into his chair, then adjusted himself so one of his arms was around her, the other tracing gentle circles on her arm. He paused briefly when her lips brushed against his. He returned the kiss softly, his hand settling on her arm, his thumb stroking her arm gently. His head rested right back, and he closed his eyes, just listening to her breathing in and out. He was the most relaxed he'd felt in years.

Alliana snuggled in close and ran a soft hand along the back of his neck. "can I stay heah with you tonight?" she asked sweetly, voice hovering just above a whisper. She had a feeling he wouldn't say no, but wanted to ask anyway. Wanted to hear him say yes to her, in that perfect, homely Australian accent. She closed her eyes breathing him in, adjusting slightly so when she opened them she could watch the stars. It was the first reason she came up here after all.
She looked up at him with her serene blue grey eyes, making sure this wasn't a dream. If it had, she would have never wanted to wake up. Ally nestled her head in close to his chest, laying a firm hand on her new pillow. He was alive, he had feelings for her, and now, he was hers...well, figuratively. She wouldn't have to fight for something she wanted for once. It came, just because she wasn't expecting it. A small sigh escaped her lips, and she watched a few shooting stars delve into a galaxy not far off. It was beautiful, just like this moment.

Luke opened his eyes and looked down at her, a smile on his face, "do you even have to ask?" he said, kissing her softly upon the top of her head, "yes." He spoke the words into her hair, kissing her there again before leaning his head back, continuing to soothe her arm with his hand. He liked the feeling of her hand across the back of his neck, it felt really good.
Luke was feeling exceedingly lucky right now. The last four years, all he'd really had was flings, relationships that didn't last more than a night or two, because that was all he could really afford with his job. All of people on his previous ship were military personnel, and it was forbidden for military officers to be in a relationship, it made them emotional and vulnerable. However, this ship was full of people from all over, from so many different jobs, and he had known there had been the potential for a relationship but... he certainly hadn't expected Alliana. It was a welcome surprise.
He shifted slightly so he was comfortable, tilting his head back to look at the stars. It felt different sitting here watching the stars with Alliana, like it was more special. He was enjoying the moment.

Alliana felt herself snuggle up closer to him, laying her head upon his chest. The only noise now heard, was the gentle hum of the ship and the sound of thier breath in the cool air. She wasn't exactly cold, but his touch managed to give her slight goosebumps. Being touched just wasn't something she was used to. From the very day they met, a dark cloud of heavy sexual tension had simply been hovering over them both. Things had definitely shifted now.
She was happy she had met him, happier than she had been in years. Sure she'd been with guys here and there, but this..Luke..he was just...out of her ordinary, and she couldn't stop herself from falling as hard as she tried. This is what normal people felt, how the rest of the..well, worlds did it. She felt Luke heave a contented sigh, and closed her eyes. Her mind began to wander of the possibilities and it would all be perfect if she wasn't running, wasn't lying. How long could she keep this before someone on board found out? No, not now. She didn't want to ruin this moment. "Goodnight Luke." she whispered into his neck. "And..just...thank you.."
