@::Steps up to the bar and orders a Sumerian Sunrise::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: You know Logan; you really don't have to do all this for me.  I'm not a fancy gal.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: I know I don't, but I want to.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::feels the ring case in his pocket as he sits down nervously.::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
CO: Captain. ::returns her smile:: Going my way?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
CTO: Well if you are heading somewhere that serves things to eat and drink than I just might.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::loses himself looking into her eyes::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
::Notices that Logan, isn't his usual self.:: CMO: Logan, what's going on? You’re acting funny.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
CO: Wasn't thinking of heading there directly, but I can always make an exception if you're looking for company.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: Funny? How so?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::takes her drink and moves over to a corner seat::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::tugs on his collar::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
CTO: Well if you don't mind being seen with an old married lady... the company would be a nice change of pace.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
::laughs slightly:: CO: I've probably been seen with worse. Remind me to tell you about my third year at the academy at some point...
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: You’re just not yourself. ::Gets a dread.:: CMO: Oh no, your not, not, not...........
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Looks at him seriously wondering if he's breaking things off.::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: Not what?
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: Your not, not happy are you?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::laughs as they head out the airlock::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: With us?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::takes a long sip of the drink finding her mind unusually quiet with Abby now gone too::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@CTO: Can you recommend any establishment on this Starbase?
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::stands up and walks over to her, taking his hand out of his pocket with the ring case in it:: FCO: Amber, I've never been happier with anyone in my life.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@CO: ::moves with her through the airlock:: You know, I did see a nice little cafe along the promenade... if you don't mind being a stone's throw away from the drunken populous, that is.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::slowly and nervously he moves down to one knee as he holds up the ring box that he just opened.:: FCO: Amber, I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@CTO: Sounds good to me.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Absolutely stunned and shocked.:: CMO: Oh my God, oh, oh, oh, oh. ::Looks into his eyes with tears in hers.::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::starts toward a bank of turbo lifts:: CO: If you will follow me, ma'am... ::winks faintly::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::stares back in her eyes waiting::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::thinks about Ryan laying in that ICU so many light years away::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::lets him lead the way::  CTO: So... you were saying something about the 3rd year? ::smirks slightly::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::finishes her drink and heads out for a walk::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: Oh Logan.  It’s so soon.  I mean we're just getting to know each other.  What happens if our careers go off in different directions?  Wow, I had no idea we were getting to this.  This is so fast.  Things have been going so fast.  ::Bumbling and babbling still in utter shock.::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::snaps the case shut slowly and bows his head feeling rejected.::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::smirks a little:: CO: Well, it was about the time of exams... a couple of us decided weekends weren't exactly for being sober. ::calls a lift::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::gets in the lift::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::requests the promenade, then continues:: CO: Well, this particular weekend we'd gotten our hands on a case of Andorian ale.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::starts walking around the Promenade, trying to force herself to relax::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Reaches for his hand and clasps it.:: CMO: Logan, I love you or at least I think I do.  I'm just an old fashioned girl.  You haven't even met my family yet.  And I yours.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::puts the ring back in his pocket and stands and walks over to the window, a tear running down his cheek::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::smiles::  CTO: Ahhh the ingredients for a good time it sounds.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::finds a wall to lean against and waits to reach their destination:: CO: Suffice it to say never play beach volleyball with a team of Nausicaans...
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: I think we have a real future together.  I just want us to be 100% sure and not rush into things.  We haven't even known each other a year yet and we've only been dating for about 6 months 2 of which I was not even coherent most of the time.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::hovers off the lift laughing::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::just nods without saying anything::
Host Loudspeaker says:
All: The 7 card Hold'em tournament has been postponed due to a malfunction in the environmental controls in the Atrium.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::glances up into a shop window and sees a sale on holo-programs::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Goes over to him and puts her arms around him from behind and rests her head on his shoulder.::  CMO: Logan, please try to understand this is not no, its just I think we need more time like the last 12 hours.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::sees the XO and calls out to her::  XO: Commander Horn...
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::steps off the lift with the CO:: CO: I still can't remember if I had to report in late for the next exam because of the hangover or they hadn't finished reconstructing my left leg... ::trails off as he, too, spies the XO::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::sighs:: FCO: I almost chickened out. Was going to wait. But then you started getting scared......
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::hears her name and looks up to spot the CO and CTO::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: I thought this closeness we've had the last 12 hours was too much for you and you were going to break up with me.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::heads over to the XO::  XO: Commander we are heading for a bite to eat, care to join us?
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: I panicked. I didn't know what else to do.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::sees a few of his department milling about this or that shop:: CO/XO: Popular place this morning...
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::spins around in her arms and holds her close:: FCO: I love you Amber.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::shakes her head::  CO: I'm afraid I wouldn't be good company right now Ma'am.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Turns the CMO around.:: CMO: Logan, this is exactly why we need to wait. We read each other wrong today.  ::Chuckles a bit.::  CMO: And I love you Logan.  Can we continue to get to know each other?  I don't even know your favorite color or favorite food.  ::Leans in for a kiss.::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::offers a slight nod:: CO: I'll let you catch up with the Commander, Sir.  Did you want anything in particular?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::her counseling training kicks in::  XO: Commander sometimes that is when we need to be with family more than ever.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::kisses her softly, and speaks as he pulls away:: FCO: Green and pizza.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
CTO: uhm... Order me a French dip... thanks.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@CO: And sometimes it's not.  I've already punched a Ferengi.  I'm afraid I'm just not nice at the moment. ::sighs::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::calls back over his shoulder:: CO: This one's on me. ::disappears into the cafe::
Host Krauq says:
ACTION: 3 security guards enter and look around and head directly towards the XO
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@XO: ::raises eyebrows:: Punched a Ferengi?
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::steps up to the counter:: A French dip, and a terran coffee...Regular, double sweet.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: Mmmm Blue and Purple and Enchilada's.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@CO: He got rather free with his hands so I stopped him before he could do anything severe.
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ XO: Commander... we need you to come to answer a few questions.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: We do need to get to spend more time together don't we.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Leans back in his arms with her arms around his neck still.::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::looks up and sees the security:: SEC: I expected as much.  Lead the way.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::sighs::  XO/Sec:  Hang on... I need to go with you.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::pays for the order, and heads back to where he left the CO::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::Starts walking her backwards::
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ CO: And you are Captain.....................?
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Nods.:: CMO: Yes we do Logan.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::kisses her deeply as he continues walking her backward::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Gets walked backed into a wall.::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::sees the CTO::  Sec: Captain Keely Cephas-Hayward.  I am the Commander's commanding officer.
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ CO: And you are a witness to the events in question Captain Cephas-Hayward?
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
::catches up to the group, raises an eyebrow at the gathering of security and slips her her order:: CO: Had to call the meeting while my back was turned hm?
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Holds him tightly to her.:: CMO: Mmmmmm.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@SEC: Questions or not, I do have a right to counsel for anything that takes place in the security office or brig.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@Sec: No sir, but if you are going to be questioning my officer she has the right for me to be there.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::walks her sideways as they kiss, then fall onto the bed::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::motions for the CTO to wait a moment::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Gets a moment to catch her Breath.:: CMO: Logan.....
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::nods, and makes himself a little les in the way::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: Yes?
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: Too fast.  We shouldn't.
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ ::sighs:: CO/XO: We are not at the point where one should be requesting legal counsel.... or at least I thought so. We wished to understand what we were seeing on the Promenade monitors when you hit a Ferengi Merchant.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Still out of breath, sits on the edge of the bed.::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: Then we won't.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@SEC: You mean after he groped me and suggested Oomox?
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: Old fashioned girl remember?
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::stands a few paces from the CO and XO, watching in silence but not too far should things get interesting::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@FCO: I know. Maybe we should finish breakfast.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@SEC: I'm happily married for the moment even if there is a chance I'll be a widow within a few days.  Nobody touches me like that except my husband.
Host SEC_Serious says:
ACTION: Life support systems malfunction in the CMO/FCO's quarters... the temperature drops to -10 Celsius in a matter of minutes.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@Self: Gahhhhhhhh! What the?
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::her eyes widen at the XO's words about her husband::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Shivers.:: CMO: Did it just get cold in here?
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::snickers a bit:: FCO: I think it was just you. ::laughs as he gets up so she can't hit him::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Grabs the blanket from the bed and wraps herself in it.:: CMO: I think we'd better get breakfast on the Sharikahr.
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ ::nods:: XO: That's what I seemed to see on the monitors.... but I am wondering why you are so defensive and need legal counsel Commander?
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::Grabs his duffle bag and hers, then heads for the door.:: FCO: Race you there.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::wonders if he'd be better off having taken that admiral up on those JAG courses::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::has had enough::  SEC: Is there a reason why you are harassing my officer about her rights?  As far as I am aware she is allowed it at any time and 'I' have the right to be there when my officer is being questioned.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@CMO: Last one there has to help the other get warmer. ::Runs out the door and down the corridor with the blanket wrapped around her shoulders toward the docking areas.::
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@SEC: Do we need to talk to your commanding officer or can we just go to your offices for the questioning?
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::runs out carrying their bags after her::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::takes a deep breath:: SEC: My apologies Sir.  I learned a couple of hours ago that my husband was badly injured in the line of duty.  He's in a coma and there is a chance he'll reject the artificial heart they had to implant.  I'm a little on edge right now, period.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@::bites the inside of her lip to prevent the tears from coming...again::
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Stops just outside of the Sharikahr and hides in a cranny way and lets the CMO win.::
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ ::sighs and grabs his nose:: CO: Captain... I get crazy claims from a Ferengi Merchant and the monitor shows me what happened... all I'm trying to do is get a story and not get drowned in legal proceedings.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@SEC: ::softer::  Than lets get to the bottom of this.
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
@::steps onboard the Shari, knowing she let him win:: FCO: You can come out now.
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::sighs, and inclines his head a degree, but stays quiet for the moment::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@SEC: The entire story is I was heading into the bar.  He came out, grabbed my behind and suggested Oomox.  I belted him one to make certain he kept his hands off of me.  Other than his pride and a sore jaw for a day, he was uninjured.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
@::Comes out of the spot and strolls onto the Shari, mocking acting surprised that he won and not her.:: CMO: I guess I owe you then now don't I?
Host SEC_Serious says:
@ ::nods:: XO/CO: Noted and logged.... now we get to question the Ferengi again.. ::smiles:: Have a nice day Captain... Commander.  ::walks away::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::pulls the FCO to him and kisses her:: FCO: Not when you let me win.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::shakes her head and looks over to her XO::  XO: You okay?
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@SEC: If you need an official report, I'd be happy to forward that section of my personal log for today.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
::motions for the CTO to move back over::
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::waits for the security team to move out of earshot, then rejoins the others:: XO: Just once? Well, better than I'd of done, likely.
FCO_Lt_Haynes says:
CMO: Oh I beg to differ. I wish to pay my debt.  My quarters 30 minutes. ::Kisses him then pulls away and goes on her way to prepare to pay her debt.::
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@CO: I will survive.  I put Abby and her nanny on a transport to earth a little while ago.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@CTO: I didn't want to kill him, just get him out of my hair.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@XO: Do you need some leave time?
CTO_Ens_Arinoch says:
@::offers a faint smile, and lets the CO and XO sort it out::
CMO_LtJG_Cartwright says:
::smiles as he holds up her bag.:: Self: Guess I will have to go so I can return her bag.
XO_Cmdr_Horn says:
@CO: Leave is what I don't need.  I'll be heading back to the ship shortly for some work.  Duty and exercise are always the best ways for me to deal with negative emotions.  Thanks for the offer Captain.
CO_Capt_Cephas says:
@::nods::  XO: Very well commander.  If you need to talk my door is always open.
