Chapter 3

Elizabeth did not remember passing out, but when she awoke with fluttering eyelashes, her clothes had been removed and she had apparently been cleaned. She was now in her undergarment gauze wraps, and a loose white hospital-like gown over those, feeling very exposed at the moment.

Sitting up, she realized she was in an entirely different room. One that was fashioned into looking like a medical bay of sorts, must be David's doing. How he had managed to make the smooth structure of an alien ship shaped like so was baffling, but she ignored that for now. Her head was swimming with wooziness, and she placed a palm on her forehead, standing up.

The dizziness kept up when she moved over to lean on the dark counter, and she bit on her lip, trying to fight back the urge to vomit all over the place. A hand was suddenly, so lightly on her shoulder, and she turned to face the one responsible.

David stood there with a small smile on his expression, and moving his hand down her arm gently. "Why, good morning, Doctor Shaw. Are you quite alright? You look pale."

Elizabeth practically rolled her eyes and turned her head to the side, speaking quietly. "David, I am-... My head is spinning..." Her head felt so heavy, and she leaned it right up onto his chest with a heavy sigh. "I'm sorry... I should not have let you touch me last night. Who knows what you did..." Her voice turning almost harsh, and she fought to have her head up to give him a stern gaze.

David only tilted his head to the side a bit, that curious stare never leaving, and smiling still. "Oh, Doctor Shaw, now that was just too mean. I would never harm you, like I had to Dr. Holloway. Besides... That was entirely not what I would have wanted for him. Everything was under my father's orders. I am sorry it had to come to that."

Elizabeth gave him one of her harshest of glares, and then looked too terribly upset, moving out of his grip on her arm. "How... How can you say something just as cruel? Oh- wait. It is because you are a robot!- I'm sorry, David." She immediately apologized, regretting yet again at seeing how hurt his expression had gone. Even though he was just that, his actions were so very human, and it always wrenched at her heart. "That was.. my anger.. I should not have pointed it at you." Apologizing again to him, and placing her hand on the counter, holding her stomach lightly. "I... " Her breath feeling so short.

The android blinked a few times, and went over to her quickly, placing his hand over her forehead. "My, my... you are burning up, Elizabeth." Not being able to make up his mind of what to call her, for he adored both saying the title and her lovely first name. "And..." He lowered his head a bit, taking her chin with that same hand to tilt it up. "I accept your apology with a glad heart. I should never have brought up... your... intimate lover." Tone and slight facial expression giving away that tinge of jealousy, which was such a very strange feeling to him. Feelings. Something that it was only thought humans and sentient creatures could posses. Yet, here he is. A sentient robot, made by the ones claiming he was not. Oh, but not you, Elizabeth Shaw...

Elizabeth felt her cheeks flush, when he had said the words 'intimate' and 'lover' it had set off her hormones she was so sure. No, I will not give into this temptation. Already once did he have me by the whims of sexual seduction, but not this time. My body is not to be examined, or to be a tool. This goes against everything I believe, to lay with a robot - a machine. I just cannot.

Those thoughts of hers, though, were easily dissolved when he had leaned down and took her lips into his with a gentle kiss. The way his mouth molded so superiorly with hers had sent her body wringing out into chills. An arm was wrapped around her, and then she was pressed back into the counter lightly with the other hand, now on her hip. Moaning so softly into the kiss, his warm tongue slipped in past her defenses, sliding up the roof of her mouth slowly.

I will not give into temptation. The Lord is my Sheppard..Oh, no... I will yield, just yield to it, Elizabeth. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders, and the urge to vomit had all but left her thoughts by now. Pulling out of the kiss to catch her breath, she glanced down and could feel his bulge right up against her very thin cloth. "David?... I did not know that... You. um..." Almost feeling too shy to think or mention of it.

Those blue eyes of his lightened up with a charming smile, and glanced down at them. "Oh, yes. Does not everyone of the male gender have a penis, Dr. Shaw?" Waggling a finger at her, his eyebrow quirking up, and actually trying to make some kind of joke with her. That went over her head, and having a very shocked expression now. She just could not believe that those creators of his actually did this.

Pressing himself right up against her, so snugly grinding, loving the surprised gasp that escaped from out of her throat. "Elizabeth... Do I... have permission to...?" Leaning his head against hers, and whispering so sensually in her ear. "...to make love you?"

I wish to know now who had taught him to speak like this, and what exactly he had... watched during those two years of space travel to have become so..sensually attractive?... Shaw nodded, leaning her head into his and breathing out slowly. "Yes, David. Yes... You have my permission..." His smile was the thing she saw when she looked into his face. A pure, almost ecstatic smile.
