I heard that you greeted the candidates today. Must've been hard. Telling them why you've abducted them. Yes, I know what's become of them. Don't worry. You said it yourself. I can keep a secret. Get back to me as soon as you can. I want to know all about it.

How did you find out? Please Keye! You must not reveal what I've done. You must keep it a secret. I'm horrified at what I've done to these children. I may have just destroyed their lives.

You need not worry. It's not like I know the purpose anyway. I can keep my mouth shut about the journey. Every detail. And I mean EVERY little detail. You know what I'm talking about.

Please. That was a once in a lifetime thing. We should never have even looked at each other that way.

But aren't you glad we did? I mean we'd been in that ship for weeks. It was only a matter of time before we felt something. We got bored and began to talk as professionals. Then as friends. Then it escalated into something a little bigger. You even admitted to feeling alone all your life. You have a friend now, if not a lover.

I'll admit it. I enjoyed the time I spent with you. It was great. My whole life I've felt like an outcast. You've made me feel something that I've never truly felt before. But as much as I'd like to keep talking to you, I can't. The children need tending to and my work is piling up.

I'm glad you feel that way. As far as not talking is concerned, that's not going to do. I go on leave in three months. I'll be on Reach. Till then.

Hey. I know you just left a few days ago but I can't stand being away from you. These past few weeks didn't last long enough. Memorize our new code names and addresses. Write back as soon as you can.

I miss you too. It was an incredible time we shared but I have some bad news. Command's picking up on me. We'll have to do this less and less as we go along. If anything important comes up then tell me. I will miss hearing from you.

I guess it was only a matter of time they found the messages. Then let this be the last one sent. With that said, I must confess this, I love you.

It's me again. I know it's been too long but I'm going on leave again. Meet me on Eridanus II. Go to the school on April 10 at 1:00 P.M. You know which one I'm talking about.

I only left you a week ago and I cant' stand being away now. But, there's something else. I don't know how I can tell you so here it is. I'm pregnant.

I was speechless when I read this. Are you positive? As excited as I am, this can be a little bit of a problem.

Of course I'm positive. And yes, it is a problem. If ONI finds out about these messages and my dereliction to see you then we're both screwed.

I know where we can hide. We'll figure something out. Go to Luna. I'll be at the terminal.

I'm glad you took the extra months off to stay with Miranda and I. I'm also glad that we were safe together when the attack happened at Harvest. She's doing fine but It's not going to be easy for us to see each other anymore. It kills me to say this but I don't think we should tell her about us. If any word leaks about our screwing around behind command's back then we'll both be in all kinds of trouble. They know about her but not her mother. I lied to keep us a secret. They've offered me a teaching job at the OCS academy. I'm taking it. I guess this is it. I don't know when we'll meet again but I know you understand. I'll always love you.

I agree. We will meet again. When we do I hope it is on good terms. Be safe and look after our daughter. I'll miss you.
