I let out a groan as I followed close behind Tech.

"Why is it so hot?" I asked as I fanned my face.

"We are on one of the hottest planets." Tech said adjusting his goggles.

I shouldn't be surprised that Tech couldn't take sarcasm, but I was... because he used Sarcasm more than anyone I knew. We were on yet another mission, this one seemed to be on a desert planet, where it was always hot, it was worse than Tattooine.

"I think I'm going to die of a heat stroke." I said with a groan.

Tech let out a sigh and shook his head as he turned to look at me. He noticed something behind me and let out a chuckle.

"You're not going to die. Look there is a stand, we can get something to drink." He said pointing to a stand.

"Thank the force!" I exclaimed.

We made it over to the old lady, who had a giant grin on her face.

"What can I get for you two?" She asked happily.

"Two slushes, red and blue." Tech said with a small smile.

"Coming right up and might I say you two are a cute couple." She said shooting me a wink.

"Thank you." I said with a small nod.

Tech's cheeks were bright red and I couldn't help, but to laugh as I bumped into his shoulder. The lady returned with the slushes and handed us each one.

"Thank you." I said as I took mine.

Tech nodded his head and I dragged him behind me, happily eating my slushy.

"I'm still not use to us being a couple." Tech said as I looked at him.

"It is taking some time to get use to. I keep getting weird looks at bars when I tell them that I'm dating five different guys." I said with a laugh.

"You have told people about us?" Tech asked in shock.

"Of course. Why wouldn't I?" I asked as I sent him a smile.

"Well... I just-"

He looked away from me and cleared his throat.

"Tech, I don't bite. Unless you want me too." I said smiling up at him.

His cheeks went bright red and I let out a laugh. I was forced to stop and hold my sides as I caught my breath.

"You should have seen your face! I'm just messing with you Tech." I said as I smiled up at him.

"Of course. We should... get back." Tech said as he looked away from me.

"Tech, are you okay? You know I was just playing right? I didn't mean to make you upset." I said as I grabbed his arm.

I forced him to turn around and I watched as he let out a gulp. His eyes were trained on my face and I quickly reached up.

"Is there something on my-"

I was cut off by Tech leaning down and capturing my lips with his. Almost instantly he pulled back and started to stutter.

I would never expect Tech to kiss me out of the blue, maybe Hunter or Crosshair, but never Tech. So I was left shocked when his lips met mine.

I also was left wanting more, as his lips had been rough and soft at the same time, something that surprised me. Tech also tasted of the slushees that we had been drinking and a pet of me wanted to kiss him again, and after I met his eyes I knew I had to.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to-"

I cut him off by wrapping my arms around his neck and pulling him into another kiss. He slowly backed me up against the wall and used his free hand to cuff my cheek. While he wrapped his other hand around me and pulled me closer, deepening the kiss. When we pulled apart we were both out of breath.

"That was nice." I whispered as I stared up at him.

"Yes... it was." Tech said with a small smile.

"We should get back to the ship." I said with a small laugh. "Before... someone comes looking for us."

"Of course." Tech said as I looped arms with him.

We finished our slushes and then threw them away, before climbing onto the ship. We saw that Crosshair and Wrecker were the only ones still on the ship, Echo and Hunter having taken Omega out for training.

"Sorry it took us so long." I said as Tech followed close behind me.

I sent them a smile, which caused Crosshair's eyebrow to raise.

"Why are your tongues purple?" Crosshair asked with a frown.

"We had slushies. I had a blue one." Tech said calmly.

"I had a red one." I mumbled as I looked away from Crosshair, my cheeks turning red.

"Oh." Crosshair said as he went back to cleaning his gun.

After a couple seconds Crosshair's eyes went wide and he turned to look back at us.

"OH." He said in shock.

"You guys drank each other's slushies?" Wrecker asked with a frown.

I covered my mouth as I held back a laugh. Wrecker stared at us confused until he saw Tech's bright red cheeks and then a light bulb popped up.

Of course it would take Wrecker awhile to figure out that me and Tech had been kissing. I shouldn't be so surprised that it would go over his head, he was the most innocent of the group.

"You made out!" Wrecker exclaimed.

Before I knew it we were all in the lounge, and Wrecker was laying down on the floor eyes wide open.

"I'm an idiot." Wrecker mumbled under his breath.

We all stayed quiet as I set beside Tech, a giant grin on my face.

"If you're waiting for us to disagree, this is going to be a long day." Crosshair grumbled out.

"I can't believe Tech got to kiss (Y/n) first!" Wrecker exclaimed.

"Technically Echo kissed me first." I mumbled under my breath.

"Wait Echo kissed you! Let me guess Hunter and Crosshair have too!"

"Actually they haven't." I said as I looked away from Wrecker.

"So I still have a chance to kiss you before them!" Wrecker exclaimed.

I let out a laugh and shook my head as Wrecker stood up and jumped up and down.

"What is going on?" A voice asked from the doorway.

Hunter walked in with a sleeping Omega in his arms and a very annoyed Echo behind him.

"Tech and (Y/n) made out. Wrecker is happy because he just realized that neither you and me has kissed her." Crosshair explained.

"Tech kissed (Y/n) before Hunter? How did that happen? Hunter, you need to step up your game." Echo said with a frown.

"I thought we all agreed that non of us would kiss her yet?" Hunter asked angrily. "And wait a second you kissed her?"

"Um... maybe." Echo said as his face went bright red.

"Guys! Will you please stop fighting? You do realize anyone of you could kiss me whenever you feel like it, right?" I asked shutting all of them up.

"Seriously! Why wasn't I told!" Wrecker exclaimed.

"I thought it was self explanatory. When you're dating someone, you can kiss them, just ask." I said shrugging my shoulders.

I walked up to Hunter and took Omega from him. Instantly she clung to me and fell asleep in my arms.

"Can I-"

"Not right now. Think of it as punishment for being idiots." I said as I turned and walked out of the room.

"That's cruel!" Wrecker yelled back.

I smiled in satisfaction as I made it to the Omega's room. I laid her down and crawled in behind her, cuddling up to her. When I woke up I saw that I was alone. I instantly jumped and looked around the room. I heard laughing and climbed out of bed. I made my way into the cockpit and saw Omega trying to help Tech. I leaned against the doorframe and smiled as I watched them.

"No, the wrench. Not that one, the other one." Tech said with a groan.

"They all look the same!" Omega exclaimed.

I felt an arm around me and jumped a little.

"Echo! Don't do that! You scared me to death!" I exclaimed as I let out a laugh.

"Sorry." Echo said as I glared up at him.

I hit his shoulder and he let out a chuckle.

"(Y/n)! Which of these is a wrench?" Omega asked as she rushed up to me.

"That one." I said as I pointed to it.

"Thank you!"

She rushed back over to Tech and handed the wrench to him. I smiled as I leaned my head to the side, laying it on Echo's shoulder.
