Why this must be read:This story is an oldie, but a goodie. I re-read this one constantly. It’s a cheerful and humourous romance. I find the dialogue between all the characters witty and real. Here’s a small teaser.
Tom broke, and quickly sank a few balls. They alternated turns for a few minutes, while Chakotay desperately tried to work up the nerve to say what he had to. Finally, while Tom was trying to line up a particularly tricky shot, Chakotay said, "You know, I couldn't help overhearing some of your conversation with Harry." Tom grunted in response. Chakotay strengthened his voice and continued, "I heard you say you're waiting for someone to sweep you off your feet. I suppose none of the women on the ship fit the bill?"
Tom straightened up, and looked at Chakotay with a quizzical expression. "No, I guess they don't." A familiar impish look fleeted across his face, and he asked, with a mischevious grin, "Why, are you interested?"
"Yes."
"What?" Tom's pool cue clattered noisily to the ground. "I'm sorry, but -- what did you just say?"
"I said," Chakotay responded, distinctly, "that I'm interested."
"You ... you ... " Tom took a deep breath and stared, bug-eyed, at Chakotay. "You're -- what?"
"Interested. In you." Chakotay started to relax. Now that he'd said it, he could see the humor in the situation. Tom looked like he was about to faint. "Have you always had this hearing problem, or is it a recent development?"
