I know twin aus are over done but uh I couldn't help myself 🤷🏻♀️ It's just a wip for the moment tho
Lily hummed as she tucked her makeup back into her locker "Geez took you long enough, sure you're a marine?"
Lily looked up and saw her twin brother Aiden "Just because I want to look nice it doesn't make me less of a marine than you."
Aiden laughed "I'm messing with you Lil."
Lily rolled her eyes "I hate you."
"No you don't." Aiden said matter of factly as he walked away.
Lily scoffed as she stood up, dusting off her navy blue uniform and walking up the stairs to the CIC. Anderson had just requested Aiden's presence but it didn't mean she couldn't see what was going on in the cockpit. Lily was stopped by Jenkins waving at her and she made her way over to him and Chakwas, Aidan elbowing her in the arm "Think he's finally gonna ask you out?"
It was common knowledge he had a crush on Lily and while she only had eyes for someone else on the ship Jenkins seemed harmless enough so she didn't avoid him "Don't you have a captain to bother?"
"Hey, he called me."
"Good thing Chakwas stocks up on painkillers he's gonna need them for the headache he'll have after dealing with you." Aiden stuck his tongue out at her as he walked into the comm room and she did the same to him.
Chakwas shook her head at them "I swear you two…"
Lily shrugged "That's what Anderson gets for having us both on the ship."
"So what brings you up here?" Jenkins asked, looking at her like a love sick puppy.
"Just going to see Joker, the Captain didn't call for me but I'm nosey."
"I'm sure they'd appreciate your company." He blushed "I know I would."
Lily smiled "You're sweet." She felt she was leading him on a bit but there's no reason to be cold to him over a crush and if anything she hoped they could be friends. After a brief conversation she continued to the cockpit, she had lied, Joker wasn't the reason she was going up there it was Kaidan. Lily had a huge crush on him and she thought he felt the same but she was too nervous to ask. Kaidan noticed her come up behind them and turned to greet her "Hey Lily, good to see you."
Lily looked away, smiling "You too…" it was impossible for her not to feel shy around Kaidan, she had never felt this way about anyone before and she wasn't sure how to act.
Aiden walked to the cockpit and stopped next to Lily "Hey you two, suit up and meet us in the cargo bay." Aiden patted her on the back before jogging off.
"Aye aye." Kaidan and Lily said in unison something that embarrassingly enough made her blush.

Lily looked over as she put on her boots and saw Aiden had left his shotgun on the weapons bench, rolling her eyes she stood up and grabbed it, pushing it against his chest "You forgot this...again."
Aiden accepted it from her and rubbed the back of his neck "Thanks Lil."
"Uh huh." She stood next to him as they waited for Anderson "What did the captain talk to you about?"
Nihlus shot him a look before he could answer "I'll uh I'll tell you later, promise." Aiden said as he attached his shotgun to his lower back.
Lily raised an eyebrow at him and shrugged "I'll hold you to that."
