It became a routine for you and Dmitri to cook each other breakfast, and soon enough it started to go into lunch and it went from Fridays to the weekends as well. So, now four times a week, the two of you will cook for each other whether it's big or small, and have a nice quiet breakfast or lunch. You also realize that Konig meant what he said about getting the boss to lay off you. It was like overnight that he stopped being overbearing and he stopped being all in your space and flirting with you. Now he was business and sometimes nice and polite, but it didn't cross the business line. You really had to thank Konig for whatever the hell he did. 

"Do you know what Konig likes? Eh, I probably should just ask him myself to see what he says." You were currently eating lunch with Dmitri in your office and his ears turned to you as he raised an eyebrow in your direction. 

"What do you mean? Food wise?" You nodded and he hummed "He likes sweet and salty snacks as well as foods." On the one hand, you were not expecting that combo, but then on the other hand you kind of saw where the big guy was coming from. Sweet and salty combos were good when done right. 

"Okay, thank you. I should make something for Ghost too, they're both your friends after all." Besides it being a thank you for what he did for you with the boss, you truly did want to be nice to the two other men who were close with and friends with Dmitri.

"I am sure they'll appreciate it." The two of you sat in comfortable silence as you both finished eating your lunch. You decided that you were going buy Konig some chocolate-covered pretzels since he seems like the type to like those and you'll get Ghost some form of chocolate. Maybe a Boston cream donut or something like that. "Out of all of the little treats you had so far, is there one that was your favorite?" You thrummed your fingers against your chin and you thought back to which treat you enjoyed the most.

"I would say the strawberry flavored ones like the strawberry donuts, strawberry pop tarts, stuff like that, as well as the blueberry. They are both tied for 1st place because those two flavors are my favorite." He hummed as he ate the last of his lunch and tied up the container to wash later. You watched as he stood up and looked at you from the side like he always did.

"That's good to know." You already knew he was leaving so you went to hug him loving how he wrapped both arms around you. It was always a nice feeling and he would give a little squeeze and rub up and down your back. "I'll see you later." He pulled away a bit, using a finger to caress your cheek before pulling away fully and leaving you alone in the office to reflect.

----------------------------------------------------------------

The next time you saw Konig and Ghost were together in the med-bay so you took advantage and handed them a bag each. They grabbed them but, they both looked between you and the bags questioningly. 

"What's this sweetheart?" You grinned ushering for them to open the bags first which they did and paused at what they saw inside.

"I asked Dmitri what you guys liked and he gave a hint so I went with it...I wanted to get something for you guys since you're so nice to me and plus you care about Dmitri." You watched in amusement as both of them tore up their snacks, barely breathing making you giggle out loud. 

"God bless you for this shit, damn this was good." Konig tore up the bag of chocolate-covered pretzels so he really did like sweet and salty stuff. Ghost had eaten both Boston creme donuts as well and was leaning back in his chair with his hand on his stomach. 

"Where the hell did you get those from? They were mad good." You were debating whether or not you should tell them that you made them homemade following a recipe that your grandmother and mother had in a book that you took pictures of.

"Both the chocolate-covered pretzels in the Boston Cream Donuts were homemade the recipe I got from my mother who in turn got the recipe from her mom a.k.a my grandma." You let out a belly laugh at the incredulous looks they both gave you simultaneously.

"Yo, I swear to God, Dmitri better hurry up and marry your ass." You were so thrown off by what Ghost said that it had you bent over laughing from the gut. It felt good to laugh like that. Once you finish laughing, you wipe away invisible tears and talk with the two for a little bit before they return to their duties and you stay in the Med Bay cleaning up and sterilizing everything. Just because those two didn't need the med Bay doesn't mean no one else will need it, so it's better to keep it clean and sterile at all times to avoid cross-contamination and possible infections. You were so busy cleaning that you jumped when you heard a knock on the door that was open. You turned around and were surprised to see your boss standing there just watching you.

"Hey boss, is there anything you need me to do for you?" You finish wiping down the counters organizing the needles and medicine in their proper spot and depositing the stuff that you used to clean in the hazards bin before discarding your gloves and scrubs in the regular bin. You turned to the boss who was still in the doorway looking around the place before his eyes fell on you. 

"Follow me." You did, as told following behind him before coming up beside him and he took you down corridors and through doors that you had never been before. You will admit that you were getting a bit nervous, but then your curiosity peaked when he took you down the investigative route. Little alarm bells were going off in your head, but you still went with him figuring he wouldn't really do anything drastic, especially with all the cameras.

"If you don't mind me asking where are we going?" He didn't say anything for a bit before he stopped in front of a door and from behind the door you heard a hiss and growl which had you concerned but, now you were really concerned. Who was making all that noise? And why did he bring you all the way over here where you weren't needed?

"I think it's time you see what your boy toy is really made of." You were appalled and he gripped your arm, swinging the door open and shoving the two of you inside. He let you go,  and what you saw in front of you had you shocked. It was Dmitri, Konig, and Ghost interrogating someone tied down to a chair, an obvious traitor/terrorist but, that wasn't the surprising part. Dmitri was maskless, his jaw unhinged, sharp overcrowded teeth smeared with blood, and a long snake-like tongue hanging out as he growled at the traitor who was talking a mile a minute. You quickly shut your eyes when the boss announced your guy's presence. "Look what we have here!" You heard a cuss and you felt unnatural rage filter through you. 

"WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU BRING HER HERE?!" That sounded like Ghost yelling at him and the boss snickered. You wanted to hit him.

"She so in love with that fucking freak, I wanted her to see what he truly is and-" He was unable to finish his sentence as you uppercut him with all your strength making him stumble from shock alone and a ringing ear. You turned your back on them and faced your boss with your eyes opened, nostrils flaring.

"You're a fucking disgrace for a human being, you bastard. You bald-headed, no dick-having mother fucker. I hate you. I always fucking hated you. I hate all the nicknames, I hate the way you be all up on my fucking DICK. I can't take a piss without you trying to eat my ass. AND THEN you're going to have the audacity to monitor who I choose to SPEAK TO!? WHO I LIKE?! You are nothing. You mean nothing to me. You should be fucking ashamed of yourself. You shouldn't be qualified as a fucking officer. IT SAYS NO ONE IS TO SEE DMITRI IN HIS FILE THAT I KNOW YOU READ OVER AND OVER WITH HOW FUCKING OBSESSED YOU ARE WITH HIM!" You took a deep calming breath, closed your eyes, and pressed your hands to your temple to try and soothe the headache coming but, you didn't expect the boss to grab you by the neck and pick you up.

"You little-" Once again he didn't say much because your dad from behind him came and swung full force at his head making him crumble to the floor, dropping you in the progress but, you felt hands just as fast grab you. You were disoriented and coughing as you watched blearily your dad pick the man up one-handed and hand him off to other people who came with him. Too much adrenaline all at once and being unable to breathe properly, you blacked out, the hands holding you picking you up to take you to who knows where.
