by Dave O'Connor

“Well how can you. You haven’t answered my question.”

  “I don’t know. I don’t really want to think about this right now. I’ve just been responsible for killing two senior allied officers, Ivan’s in the middle of shit fight on Krinkuln and I haven’t heard back from Meg in Lenxl. These are real immediate issues for which I have responsibility and you want me to devote precious down time to considering the fanciful notion of running for political office.”

  Rihan raised herself up onto her elbow and turned on her bedside light.

  “Oh not now honey. I’m tired” pleaded Dave.

  “I’m sorry. I can’t sleep until I know. This will be a complete change in our lives and it’s not just any political office. It’s the highest there is within the Federation. Come on Dave you must have a view on whether you want to or not. Even if it’s just a gut feeling.”

  “You’re not going to let up are you?” Rihan shook her head. So Dave grabbed one of the pillows and put it behind him so that he was now sitting up in bed. Rihan did likewise and looked at him expectantly. “You’re enjoying this aren’t you?”

  “Well it’s not every day something like this comes your way.”

  “True. I suppose… yes I’m interested. I’ve always had an interest in the big political issues” said Dave. Rihan nodded. “But there so much crap that comes with the politics. There’s all the media; nothings private; half the people hate you…”

  “And the other half love you” interjected Rihan.

  “Maybe, if you’re lucky. It never lasts anyway. There are things I would like to change…you know the things we’ve discussed.” Rihan nodded again. “But who’s to say that I could actually be effective in implementing those. I don’t know. I’d be a relative novice.”

  “You could be the ‘breathe of fresh air’ the system needs Dave. I think you should go for it.”

  “You do? I thought you’d be dead against it.”

  Rihan smiled triumphantly. “It’s nice to know that I can still surprise you.”

  “But what about starting a family?”

  “Oh you won’t get out of that responsibility. I won’t be the first, First Lady to be pregnant. No, I think you should go for it. When does Charles expect an answer?”

  “End of February.”

  “Right then we’ve got some time to think about all the conditions we’ll insist on before we accept.”

  “Ah, so we’ll be accepting, will we?” asked Dave emphasising the ‘we’ll’.

  “Of course. We’re partners right?”

  “Hum” chuckled Dave. Then a more serious expression came across his face. “We do need time to consider this. There’s probably a ton of factors we haven’t touched on and they may preclude acceptance.”

  “Fair enough” said Rihan and she leaned over and gave a Dave a peck on his cheek. “I’m good now” she added and tossed the extra pillow and turned the light out.

  “Well I’m glad that’s resolved to your satisfaction maam” said Dave as he too tossed his extra pillow. He cuddled into her back and fell almost instantly to sleep.
