Girls' Night Out ((locked to stuck_in_cic & <user site="livejou

[number_eight]

The whole thing had actually been Sharon's idea. Cally wasn't invited, of course, but otherwise all the wives (meaning Sharon, Kara, and Dee) were going to get together and talk over at Joe's. She'd made sure that there would be no men there when they gathered and she'd kissed Hera goodnight before leaving her with Helo.

"Sorry, Karl," she told him, which meant it was pretty serious business since she hardly ever referred to him by his real name, "but so far it's been nothing but work and no play for us girls. Or haven't you ever noticed we never get to just hang out and talk like you men do?" A quick kiss on Helo's cheek, and Sharon was off to Joe's, waiting to see Kara and Dee.

If the men got to talk about flying or fighting or frakking, why couldn't the women? After all, everyone knew they talked about it far more than the men anyway.

Dee had even done her hair and makeup. Kissing the top of Lee's head as she turned to leave the quarters, she gave a wave from the hatch.

"I don't think we'll be too late," she conceded, mostly because of the look on his face. "But I'm not making any promises. You know the girls rarely get to get together like the guys do."

Another smile and she was off to Joe's. Seeing Sharon, she gave a wave and eased herself onto a stool next to her. "Starbuck here yet?"

"Nope, not yet," Sharon replied, then laughed. "Maybe she's too busy with Sam?" She shrugged and ordered a couple of drinks for them both, then turned to Dee.

"Wow. You got dressed up for tonight. I take it you're like me, then? You never get out very often?"
