ON

As she entered the cabin, Gary's song began to play. Lia stopped and took her shoes off and listened to the song with a smile on her lips, as the song played she removed her uniform and turned for the shower. She waited for the song to finish and then stepped into the shower, water flowed over her and she relaxed.

Once dried she picked up a Joban and loosely tied it around her, then finding a Yukata she also tied that loosely around her with a soft Obi. Putting on a pair of slippers, she sat down to think of a way to answer Gary. A song now came to her and so she accessed the computer, "Computer, find and play Petula Clark 'Sailor'. Send it to Commander Gary Taylor marked personal". The song began and as it played, Lia again smiled. Would Gary find the meaning in the song?

Lia rose and now walked to the small Japanese kitchen she had installed in the cabin, *Time to make some Dango* she thought. It would put the final stamp on this little interaction between her and her husband, how far they'd come. Only one more thing was needed, and she was working on that but keeping it close to her chest. Gary was always doing little things to remind her of his love, but she still found it a little difficult to respond or remind him of how much she truely loved him. Perhaps as time marched on she would be able to tell him or show him, but until then she would do the best she could and take notice of how he did it.

Gary was skilled at what he did, and she knew he was there for her whenever she needed him. Lia hadn't told him that because she didn't know how, oh she knew the words and the actions. Four years with Gary had slowly taught her to trust again, but still she had to work at it to show she was his. Had he noticed? Who knew, but she didn't care. Right now despite what was happening around them, they were still very much in love. Even when they argued, the pair never went to bed angry.

Sailor stop your roaming

Sailor stop your roaming
Sailor, leave the sea
Sailor, when the tide turns
Come home safe to me

As you sail across the sea
All my love is there beside you
In Capri or Amsterdam
Honolulu or Siam To the harbour of my heart
I will send my love to guide you
As I call across the sea
Come home to me

Sailor stop your roaming
Sailor, leave the sea
Sailor, when the tide turns
Come home safe to me

As you sail across the sea
All my love is there beside you
In Capri or Amsterdam
Honolulu or Siam To the harbour of my heart
I will send my love to guide you
As I call across the sea
Come home to me

Sailor
Sailor...
