No pov.

In Shepards cabin 6 woke up holding Lilith in his arms as they lay under a blanket. Their clothes were spread throughout the room as he remembered the lovely night they spent together. He smiles and pulled her close letting their bodies press together. Stirring in her sleep Lilith woke feeling 6 arms around her. She smiled turning over to see 6 smiling at her.

"If that wasn't our final night then I can't wait to see how you top it." Lilith smirked as he sat up.

"I'll figure something out." 6 said as Lilith got up with him. "But you got a mission to get ready don't you hero?" He joked as she kissed his cheek.

"What not gonna stay and watch me get dressed?" Lilith teased as 6 seemed to contemplate the idea before lightly getting hit in the chest making him cough. "Go get dressed. I'll see you after I get suited up.

"I'll be with joker til you kill that fucker saren." 6 said getting up and pulling on his boxers and pants. He got up and left giving a last look at Lilith before walking over to the med bay. He walked in seeing his coat armor and helmet folded neatly but his black t-shirt was set to the side. He walked over and noticed a lavender smell. He felt pleasantly surprised before finding 3 holes with burn marks on the back.

"Sorry for not getting that fixed." Dr. Chakwas said as she was lookingover a tablet with different readings on it. "I'm good at putting people back together not clothes." She sighed putting the tablet down

"It's cool." 6 shrugged before grabbing his jacket patting the pockets. "Where are you?" He muttered before pulling out a small kit. He then opened it revealing a sewing needle with a spoole of black thread.

"You know how to sew?" Dr. Chakwas asked.

"Ma taught us." He answered instinctively. "Had to know to repair simple clothing if we were gonna fix our armor and boots."

"Who was your mother?" Dr. Chakwas asked grabbing the tablet to take notes.

"She wasn't actually our ma. She just took us in and taught us how to live in the wasteland." 6 said as he sewed the shirt slowly. "Just 2 orph-" He then stopped and grabbed his head as he got a very severe head ache.

"Are you okay?" Dr. Chakwas asked with concern filling her tone.

"Yeah just the past trying to break a damn with a sledgehammer." He groaned as he finished sewing. "Well I gotta go to the cockpit. I've been in here long enough." He got up pulling the shirt over his body slightly groaning from the action. Dr. Chakwas nodded putting down a couple of  things. 6 got up and walked towards the stairs noticing alot of the crew staring at him in different ways. Many of the guys looked jealous while a couple of the women gave flirtatious smirks. He shrugged it off.

When he got to the cockpit roxie and Rex barked happily getting up from their bed and rushed over nearly knocking him over.

"Well if it isn't the walking dead." Joker said as 6 chuckled. "You look like hell."

"Feel like it." 6 sat down in the co-pilog seat. Rex and roxie jumped around barking happily.

"So how was last night for you and Lilith?" Joker asked with a bit of a smirk as 6 looked over.

"It was fine. Why?" 6 answered as Rex locked his face.

"Fine he says. Are you serious that's it?" Joker asked as Lilith walked up behind them staying silent.

"Yeah I mean it was a beautiful moment that I'll always cherish and hope to do again with her." 6 said unsure of what else to say.

"Well your beautiful moment made the entire ship envious. Fun fact Shepards quarters walls a sound proof. Yet you 2 proved that it doesn't exactly muffle it that well." Joker said as 6 blushed.

"Oh.... I did not know that. Shouldn't we be calling up Shepard to tell her we're reaching the ilos system soon?" 6 said deflecting the conversation.

"She already knows. She's smart like that." Joker said unaware of her behind him. "But yeah I'm pretty sure saren heard you 2 from ilos."

6 looked over to comment seeing Shepard standing with XO presely, Garrus, and Wrex. "Really?"

"Oh yeah it was hard at first whether to distinguish the moans of pain with that of pleasure but after the first hour it became clear." Joker laughed as 6 scratched the side of his head with slightly embarrassed.

"I don't think anyone got a good sleep until we finished after the 4th hour." Shepard said with a smirk as Joker freezed up.

"Uh hi commander. I was just about to call you. We're about to arrive at ilos." Joker said as they then go into full mission mode talking a bout landing zones. 6 just tried to stay silent and supportive as he watched Lilith fly out on the Mako. The final mission to take out saren. Everything had led to this moment. And here 6 was sidelined. He had lead an army of robots and unlikely alliances. He helped men fly again. Hell he even survived a death city filled with poison clouds while wearing a faulty bomb collar.

"You okay 6?" Joker asked as he noticed 6 have a grave look on his face.

"I don't want to lose her yet here I am on ship arrest due to getting shot." 6 admitted. "First time I've ever said that."

"Shepards the best at what she does." Joker reassured. "If anyone can succeed its her."

"Good to know. So one question before moving forward." 6 said more confident. He then turned to Joker. "How likely is it that Shepard is going to hurt you? For those comments about mine and her night."

"That's actually a good question. Likely I got 2 lovely dogs wrought protect me due to how cute they are." Joker thought as 6 smirked.

"What happens when I take them with me down to the cargo hold though?"
