Danora had been planning this a little while. After the award ceremony the night before, she knew she had to do something for JT. True, he hadn’t been the one to promote her. But he was the new XO and she knew what that cost him. She also knew that wherever he had been for the last several months had also cost him. But she couldn’t help with that until he was ready, or able, to speak about it.

She finished the programming and stepped into the holodeck. The scene was perfect.

Turning back to the console, she tapped out a quick message to the man as she smiled. She’d already learned through casual conversation earlier that afternoon that he wasn’t gonna be busy after his shift tonight. The message went to his console in his quarters.

JT

Change into something comfortable and meet me in holodeck one

Dani

Straightening her own shirt, a simple blue silken sleeveless top hanging out loose over a pair of soft doe brown form fitting slacks, she checked her reflection and exhaled. They hadn’t spent any time alone since his return. And she wasn’t sure how he’d accept this with their new positions. So things could go a few different ways, this evening. Her stomach was in knots with the possibilities as she paced the room and waited.
