“Birthdays,” Chakotay groused. “Do nothing for a man, except make him older.”

His lover looked at him over her coffee cup. “You can’t mean that surely?”

“I do. It’s easy for you, you’re younger than I am.”

Kathryn pouted. “And I had a gift that would have made you feel younger.” She laughed at his expression. “No, I don’t mean Seven of Nine gift-wrapped, you dirty old man.” Leaning against his shoulder, she whispered into his ear something that made him smile in delight and look down at her stomach.

Perhaps, Chakotay surmised, birthdays were not so bad after all.
