This is for Crista,
I'm not in denial, I just think it's a totally ridiculous idea. I know....
another Seven fic, but this stupid rumor has the ideas churning, I can't
help it.
I hope the Klub doesn't
kill me for this one!
FOOL

Kathryn was seething, it was all she could do to keep from slapping the man in front of her, "Kathryn please understand. Seven years was too long to wait, I know we had the unspoken promise of waiting until we got back to earth, but these feelings for Seven surprised me, and I want to do something about it."
"I should have known you would eventually turn to her, I should have seen it coming. But shit Chakotay, she is so much younger than you, and she is practically innocent. Is that the thrill, taking the innocence, or what?"
"Kathryn you are being irrational, right now we just want to take the time to get to know each other. On the ship it wasn't possible, but here on earth, we can do that. Its not about sex or anything else, she needs someone, and that someone is going to be me. Listen, I was just trying to be a friend and tell you before you heard it from someone else. I really didn't expect this kind of reaction from you."
"Well, I'm sorry if I misunderstood you, but I thought when you said you would always be by my side, you meant it."
"And I will, but just as friends, come on, I don't think you would have wanted to settle down anyway, you are already an Admiral and we've only been home for a month. Congratulations by the way."
"Shove your congratulations Chakotay, you are the one being irrational, following your... oh forget it, I have an appointment to get to, I hope you have a happy life Chakotay," she said as she stomped off. She didn’t want to turn around to see Chakotay and Seven walk away, hand in hand.
She knew she was acting like a child but this news was a bit much. She had prepared herself for the fact that she and Chakotay may not ever get together, and that was ok as long as the close friendship remained. She had even prepared herself for hearing someday that he met the right woman, even if she had hoped that when she got home she would be the right woman.
But for him to get with Seven of Nine had to be the most ridiculous thing she had ever heard. The two of them never even got along before, Chakotay acted as if he despised the former drone. Now here he was practically planning their wedding, "well I hope you discover the reality of living with a drone Chakotay, and may you be good and miserable for it too."
Having rationalized her emotions, she headed out for the meeting, in a much better state of mind.

Kathryn rolled over and looked at the man sleeping next to her, damn he was gorgeous. She still found it hard to believe that this absolutely beautiful creature came to her bed many nights, but damn, after seven years of nothing, she deserved it. She had met Tashal at one of the meetings she was forced into going to, he had looked equally as bored and struck up a conversation with her, and the rest was history. It had now been four months, four glorious, blissfully happy, multi orgasmic months to which these two gave the term multiple orgasms a new meaning.
Tashal was extremely well built, arms that were bigger around then both Kathryn's hands could reach, legs that were well muscled but not too much. Slightly tan skin, a beautiful face, dark hair, and bright blue eyes that stood out in contrast to the rest of him. Not to mention the fact that he was very well endowed, and had a wonderful personality to boot.
She still found it sad how she and Chakotay parted and Tashal had did his best to try to convince Kathryn to reconcile with him, something that Kathryn really wanted to do. Despite her anger over his relationship with Seven, she should not have acted the way she did.
Maybe someday soon she would call him, find out how things are going. Who knows, maybe he would be able to help Seven cross over that final hurtle to humanity, maybe things would work out for them in the end. She really now did hope they worked out, hoped he did find happiness, like she was able to.
She snuggled into the body next to her, who quickly woke up, and once again began the ministrations that would bring her to an all time high, yes, she did hope Seven and Chakotay found a little bit of the pleasure that she now knew.

Same time, different place:
Chakotay groaned, and with a final jerk spilled his seed ... all over his hand. Damn even jerking off was losing its appeal. He cleaned himself up and headed back out to the bedroom.
"Commander, where you pleasuring yourself again?" asked Seven.
"Yes, so I was. And would you call me Chakotay? For the millionth time call me Chakotay," he yelled.
"I am not comfortable with that yet," she stated. "I must go regenerate."
"Seven you know you can go at least two days without regenerating, why don't you try sleeping in the bed with me?"
"Commander, I thought you understood that I do not wish to copulate with you. It would be dangerous if I tried, possibly life threatening to myself."
"I'm not asking for sex, I'm asking for a cuddle," he cried.
"I do not wish to cuddle commander," she stated as she walked away.
Chakotay sighed and fell onto the bed, just how in the world did he get into this mess. He still remembered Kathryn hurt face as he and Seven walked away, hand in hand. God, what the hell was he thinking, he gave Kathryn up for this? Maybe that crazy gene has finally gone active, it's the only thing he could think of at this very moment.
There he had stood, with Kathryn practically admitting to him that she did indeed love him, and he basically said no, and chose Seven over her. 'Idiot, idiot, idiot you have got to be the stupidest man alive, you know that don't you?' he asked himself.
He settled himself down into bed, once again alone and tried to find the sleep he knew wouldn't come.
