Coming home ((rp for callsign_helo))

[number_eight]

After being in hack along with Cally and Dee, Sharon was very happy to get back to life with Hera and Helo. It wasn't much, but it was all hers.

She did feel bad for Caprica, though, who was still in the cell they had set up for Sharon over a year ago. Idly, she wondered if the reason she hadn't been placed into that cell was because they didn't trust two Cylons together, or if because she had earned enough trust and respect that a "normal" cell in the brig would do.

"Hey, baby. I'm home."

"Maybe I will, then." Their daughter was asleep, after all.

She felt safe standing there like that, with Helo's arms around her as she looked down at him. Sharon reached out to muss his hair playfully for a moment before leaving a lingering touch on his cheek and lips.

"Are you saying that I don't know you?" She smiled slightly. "I know you. You're brave and you love me and you will do whatever you have to do for us." She sat on his lap, shaking her head at her husband. "Trust me, that's plenty complicated."

"Doing all that is complicated," Helo answered, smirking. "Wanting it isn't." He pulled Sharon closer, putting his hands on her waist.

"And yeah, you're right. You know me. Better than anybody." It was the truth, too. Helo had read plenty about how sharing intense experiences can bond two people in a way that could feel like love. That had been the popular theory, he knew, when they'd gotten back to the fleet two years ago. But Helo knew, especially in the quiet, un-intense moments like this, that it was real, and that Sharon really understood him. It was a good feeling.

He tilted his chin up until he was staring into her face. "So are we going to celebrate you getting out of hack?"

"You better believe it, baby," she smirked as she pushed him down on the bed and moved from his lap to laying on top of him.

"I hate being quiet because of Hera, but I'm willing to take my chances if you are." She lowered her lips to his and sighed into his mouth, happy and content for the first time since the whole business had started up.

Sharon might not have really learned a lesson from it, but she did enjoy the "making up" part...
