Title: Priorities Rating: G Prompt: #2 Walk The Line Category: up to 250 words Word count: 250 words Summary: Dom has to choose between his lifestyle with the Own, and a life with Kel. Notes: For Rowena! And because I'm not tired of Kel/Dom.
Smiling lazily, he admired the way the dawn light accentuated her body. Her hair, shining in the sun, was just long enough to fall into her closed eyes. He brushed her hair back carefully, fingers grazing along her cheek. Enjoying the weight of her head on his chest, he didn’t want to disturb her. He flinched as her nose wrinkled and her hazel eyes opened, looking up to meet his.
Lifting his head, he bent down to kiss her forehead. His heart raced as he laid his head back on the pillow; reveling how she closed her eyes and snuggled closer with a smile upon her face.
Tearing his gaze away from her, his attention drifted to his uniform hanging by the door. It will always be like this, he thought, a sickening knot of anxiety twisting in his stomach. The responsibilities of his duties pulled him in one direction; his desire pulled him in another.
It had never been a problem before; Kel wasn’t making an issue of it now. She had told him that she was fine with how things were between them.
She was.
He wasn’t.
She would want a family eventually; she got along with the New Hope children so well. He wanted that for her.
Wrapping his arms around his new priority, he squeezed her until she breathed a sleepy moan. He would join the army. He would raise their children in Masbolle. Really, he didn’t care, so long as he could call her his.

;D ;D I couldn't be happier to have this written for me!!! How could you ever get tired of Kel/Dom?? This is so sweet! (Can you tell I'm in major-squee mode?) I love that you've captured a real problem they would face, and that Dom is the one who wants more, and it's just so pretty! Good job!
(Now you put the idea of little Masbolles running around their fief, it's never going to leave my brain! Their kids would be so adorable!)

Wonderful, Crystal! Super sweet. I like these mushy men (in theory, not in practice) and (perhaps sadistically) love that he feels so torn!
