Thread: I Was Lost Without You [Mass Effect] (Javorcek X Erebus)

Christ, Jane, youre 31! Stop acting like a terrified teenager! The Commander tried to give herself a little bit of a pep talk in the mirror of her cabin but it wasnt working for every reason she had to be hopeful and confident, there were many more as to why she should not. Now she was panicking like a teenage girl, unsure of what to wear or how to do her hair, when it didnt matter what the hell she wore because shed be wearing her armor over it. Maybe I should just send Miranda with some creditsseems like a job shed be good at anyways. Shepard sighed as she surveyed herself in the mirror one last time to make sure that she looked presentable. Other than the new set of scars that the Commander had received, Cerberus had kept Shepard looking exactly the same as she had two years ago, even down to the shoulder length red hair well not really shoulder length, just a touch shorter so that it didnt touch her shoulders, as per Alliance regs. So hopefully the only thing that would shellshock Liara was the fact that her girlfriend was coming back from the dead. Maybe the Asari would find comfort in the fact that Jane looked the same, maybe that would be enough for her old lover to give her a chanceprovided that she was still single. Upon leaving the ship, the Commander and her crew were greeted by an Asari who informed them that Liara was expecting them. The human gulped, growing even more nervous now that it felt like she wouldnt have any opportunity to procrastinate. She had planned on going through Illium, maybe explore a little and see if there was a bar somewhere so that she could get herself a little liquid couragebut now it seemed as though they would have to go straight to Liaras office. Man, she must pay a fortune to keep an office here Shepard thought to herself as she looked around, her lovers office appeared to be fairly close to the main strip, Liara must be doing very well for herself. Well, she is a very smart woman Jane smiled a bit to herself one of the things that had attracted her to Liara was the Asaris curiosity and her eagerness to learn anything and everything she could. The Commander blinked in surprise as Liaras assistant let them into her boss office and she caught the Asari maiden in the middle of a holo-call, well, holo-threat really. The shy archaeologist who she had fallen in love with was now a big bad intelligence broker. It made Janes heart tighten, the fear that Liara had had two years to grow and change into an entirely different person was finally sinking it. The maiden even looked different, thinner now, perhaps a little more muscular? It was hard to tell in that dressthat dress that made her look even more mouthwatering than her old uniform ever did. As Liara turned around to face her, Shepard caught a glimpse of the woman she had once known a blushing young Asari maiden who was embarrassed at something she had said. The corners of the Commanders lips quirked into a smile and before she could think about what she was doing, she had taken three steps forward and had reached out to place an armored hand onto Liaras hip. Jane drew Liara into a kiss, trying to keep it slow and sweet even though she had months of pent up emotions that she wanted to flood their liplock with. But the Commander had always been surprisingly gentle with Liara, having known that the maiden had been a virgin before her, Jane had always gone slow so that her lover had plenty of time to stop the more experienced human.
