I'll never find someone quite as touched as you - Locked to Zoey Westen

[feellikeibelong]

Now that the Klingon business had finished, and Helena had done her part in helping to get the shields back up and running, she was settling back into life on the Enterprise. Of course, she was having issues with her insomnia and circadian rhythm, but she was doing her best to ignore it because she didn't want to have to take medication or something for it. She'd survived this long with a screwed sleep-wake cycle, she could continue.

But it was easier to ignore it all with Zoey here. And Helena was aware of the fact that she was in love with Zoey. Her arrival here and initial fear of having lost her had made those feelings apparent to her. Helena just hadn't exactly said as much to Zoey yet. She was afraid to say it, that saying it aloud would assure that she'd lose Zoey just like she'd lost everyone else she'd ever loved. Somewhere in her head, she could hear Dorian telling her to just tell Zoey, assuring her that she felt the same way. Even so, she was still afraid and nervous and there hadn't been much of a chance to actually confess such feelings. Perhaps that would change in the future, with the proper setting.

Perhaps that day could be today for Helena was making use of the fact the ship they were on had a far wider choice of things to do, and she and Zoey needed a proper date. Or at least a proper date since the stops the Egime had made in various worlds.

So first was doing something on the holodecks. She'd asked Zoey to meet her at one, which she'd arrived early and called up a library for the to move around in. Because why not echo the place they had first met in back in Niflheim? Helena was sad that it wasn't a real library, but considering they seemed to have left physical books behind a couple centuries prior, this was the closest she could get. Helena waited patiently, wearing a blue oxford shirt, the top couple buttons undone as usual, exposing her locket, and dark denim skinny jeans. It was her normal outfit, though she had a couple tank tops and short sleeved shirts in her wardrobe as well, but for the moment, she felt this look was good enough.

Once they were done on the holodeck, there would be dinner in their room. What date was complete without dinner, after all?

At the moment, there was little better for a date than a library. Of course as time went on and Helena became more familiar with all that was on the ship, she'd have more ideas for what she'd want to do for dates. But for now, a library was the best option. Not to mention, Helena was quite sentimental for how they'd first met.

Helena returned Zoey's kiss, letting it linger for some moments before she pulled back enough to gaze into Zoey's eyes, one hand coming up to gently caress her cheek. "It is difficult to look at books when I am with such a beautiful woman." There was a flicker of something in her eyes that went with how her heart skipped a beat or two.

She was in love, and it was getting difficult to not let it show through.

Helena had a way of getting Zoey to blush like no one else, and this moment was no different. The compliment, the look in her girlfriend’s eyes, made her flush pink, and brought a brilliant smile to her face as she leaned into the caress. “Well then, we should find you one,” she teased, blue eyes sparkling playfully.

Oh Helena enjoyed making Zoey blush. "Ah, but I have already found one. I am looking at her right now," Helena remarked with a warm smile. She loved the way Zoey's eyes sparkled, the brilliant smile she carried. She just loved Zoey period. Helena felt young again being around Zoey, and she was happier than she had been since her daughter had been alive.

And Helena was definitely not to let Zoey go for anything.
