Thua'ra walked into find Marino in his uniform and not in an evening gown as he prepared to meet with the Cardassian contingent about Temporal Dilithium. Thua'ra looked at Marino, "You are not ready."
"We need to talk, Thua'ra.", the Bajoran looked at his Cardassian partner.
"Huh?", the Cardassian responded.
"I am all man. I fought your people with the militia. I have earned my place here and as a Major in the Bajoran Republican Army. I do not associate my gender as female. Just because I prefer the company of men does not mean that I want to be a woman or even act like a woman.", Marino announced.
"But?!", Varno interrupted.
"Let me finish.", Marino continued.
"I dressed as a female for you; to help you with your feelings. I did that for you. You are the one who has an issue with sex with me, not me with you. I did that because you saved my life with Marcus and since that time I cannot keep you out of my mind. I love you and want to be with you but I will not parade around in a dress for you just to ease your own insecurities about who or what I am. It is not who I am.", Marino said his piece.
Varno gasped, bit his bottom lip and then left for the meeting.... Without Ro Marino.
Varno returned to the quarters he shared with Ro Marino. He expected the Bajoran to be gone. He was surprised to find his soldier boots in the entry way.
"Marino?", he softly hollered.
"In here.", the Bajoran announced from the bedroom.
Thua'ra walked into the bedroom. Marino was kneeling on the bed in a g-string.
"I thought you said you weren't going to do this anymore.", Varno looked puzzled.
"No, Thua'ra, I said I would not parade around in public embarrassed in a dress. What couples do in the bedroom is between them and a private sentiment shared only with their partner. This is not about gender identity, this is about exciting my partner.", Marino teased.
The Bajoran slowly removed the bottoms, "Can you live with that?"
Varno thought about walking into a room with the Bajoran in uniform with the public knowing that they were partners. He had been a strong leader of the Obsidian Order. He had been the face of fascist conservatism. He wondered if he could live with the stares and the constant whispering.
Varno also thought about his new world of diplomacy and being a man alone. He had not known love since Anora. The Bajoran knew his worst and he was still here.
Thua'ra slowly walked over to his clean shaved mate. He dropped his uniform pants and pushed himself inside. Marino moaned as the5 lizard tool created a path. Thua'ra cupped his flat Bajoran man breast and began to go faster.
Love of any kind is better than no love at all.
