Part 54

Several sectons had passed and Arian was grateful. Adama was finally beginning to be a little less possessive. Cassiopeia was still teasing her about the shackles but she could deal with it. After all Adama was an alpha male and he finally seemed to remember that. Then again perhaps he just wanted to be certain she did not disappear again. His children had tried to protest the dominant way he was acting and Arian loved them for it but she told them firmly this issue was between Adama and herself. That his controlling her was his way of showing how deeply he cared. Apollo ever the gentleman had tried to intercede but he had been unceremoniously tossed out of their quarters. Arian giggled at his shocked look. She knew that Adama's family had never really seen this darker side of him. He had shared it only with her and perhaps his first wife. The change had shocked them. Of course Arian had pulled Apollo aside later and thanked him for his concern and told him everything was fine. It had simply been shock and then the baby that made Adama so damned possessive. His eldest son finally gave in and let it go. However he did keep his word and switch to bridge duty. Arian was certain it was as much to keep an eye on his father and his behavior as to learn the job. Athena however accepted Arian's explanations with a smile. She nodded seeming to get what her gentle hearted brother did not. That sometimes there was more going on in a relationship then met the eye. Athena had welcomed her to the family glad that someone had made her father want to live again. Yes life is perfect. Arian thought.

Adama listened to the reports since the fleets had joined he was so much more relaxed. Strangely he was still the senior commander but he no longer minded. He had help now and for the first time in over a yearn felt they had a real chance at victory. He looked over and smiled as Arian worked at her station. He loved that woman she made him live again.

Tigh watched his old friend and smiled. Adama looked yearns younger. Arian had been so good for him. Unlike most Tigh had known of their relationship. At first he had not approved but in the end he had to admit Adama was far more alive with her around. He had loved Siress Ilya like a sister and had hated that Adama had another lover but in the end he knew his old friend needed the girl. Now with Ilya gone she was even more important as she was clearly grounding the commander. The fact that she would soon gift him with a child was simply a bonus. A baby would revitalize all of them. Of course now Adama was hinting perhaps he needed a new love as well. Tigh sighed and wistfully wondered who would be interested in a worn out old warhorse like him?

The Cylon ship limped back to the empire. The Imperious leader would not be pleased to learn that they had lost a fleet of ships to the humans.
