Just look in your lingerie drawer." "I didn't know I HAD a lingerie drawer. All I have is panties" I replied with a grin. I looked and what to my wo...drous eyes did appear but two gorgeous silk NIGHTIES dripping with lace and in 'our' size, medium. I'd never seen them before so I just knew they were for me and got a little excited again. As I was pulling one from the drawer and caressing it I'm afraid I said, "Lori, these are beautiful but I'm already wearing panties and now you want me to. It doesn't fit you worth a damn."She got up and patted her hair and went out the door with an extra wiggle for my benefit. I laughed at her and damned if she didn't stick her tongue out at me. That definitely was not the action of a refined full grown woman in her senior years. Well, will you listen to my old grouchy ass. I couldn't believe I had even thought that, and at my age. I should be grateful she even saw any good in me after the way I had treated her last night. Now I knew I was. Most people, and 99.9% of men, smile when they meet Cindy. "Pleased to meet you, Miss Cindy. You don't have to worry. The wings won't fall off. He might fly into a pine tree, but the wings will be there when he does."Cindy grinned. "Thank you, Mister John. I'm thinkin' it's worth a risk. My first time in an airplane. Ever."John turned to me. "Dan," he said, "everything checks out. You're good for a year." He handed me the plane's logbook. I gave him a check. "Call me if you need anything.. "I mean that if we need to flee this universe we will." She said.She stopped and looked at me."Do you think your government is worth saving? They destroyed Earth, they destroyed our home, do you think there is anything there worth saving." She asked me.The ship rocked under an explosion and she looked up for a second."Don't answer me now Captain, if we survive this battle give me your answer, if things go as my projections show we will be leaving, if you have an answer for me I may be inclined.
