"It's great down here." He said lightly. "I'm happy for you." He said easily.

Mia smiled a little. "Thanks," she said quietly. "And thank you. For all your help."

"I had a blast." he admitted. "Now I'm going to go hit the showers if you don't mind. See you later?"

Mia smiled a bit and nodded. "Yeah okay," she whispered softly.

Sharpe smiled and put down the headset, moving into the showers easily. He washed off his face and body. He then stood under, feeling a soreness settle in him.

Mia sat in her chair for a while, happy to back out in the black. She watched the stars go by, and marked them off on her screen as they went by. She seemed much more content now, keeping an eye on her engine readings all the while.

Sharpe moved into Mia's room and gently closed the door. He sighed a bit and began scrounging through her things quickly, looking for something. He paused though, seeing a necklace. He smiled a little and took his wrapping it around his wrist. He sighed and slipped out of the room and closed it softly behind him.

Around dinner time, Mia moved down to the mess hall and gathered up food for Sharpe and herself. Then she headed down to the brig, wondering if he was there or in the engine room. She figured she'd check his 'room' first though.

Sharpe wasn't anywhere in the engine room, or his room...

Actually he was in the lower hull, checking out the escape shuttles. He never liked going with the one plan.

Mia frowned a little, looking around the engine room. Where the hell could he have gone?! This wasn't good... "Sharpe what are you doing?" she breathed.

Sharpe popped back up and frowned, seeing her. "Mia...hey." he said softly. He wasn't wearing the necklace anymore, having stashed it somewhere.

Mia turned quickly, frowning. "Where were you?" she asked quietly.

"I was...in my cell." He said slowly, gesturing behind him. He hopefully was good enough at lying.

Mia frowned at him. "No you weren't," she whispered. "I went there first."

Sharpe pushed a hand over his head. "Well maybe we just missed eachother." he shrugged. He pushed past her to the console and typed in a few things.
