Lari smiled as she tucked a lock of hair behind her ear. “That sounds like a great idea,” she said as she studied her companion. She was finding it a bit hard to get a read on him, he seemed like a lovely chap but she wondered what he was really like behind the science officer. She sipped her drink again and sat back in her chair. “So tell me
Fil, what do you like to do in your spare time? Do you have any hobbies or anything?” she asked curiously.

“I like to read a lot in my spare time. But sometimes I go to the holodeck and work out.” Fil said and remembering the time he had a great work out. “What about you my friend....I mean Dr. Naktal…uh.... Lari. What do you do in your spare time.”

Lari smiled warmly and gently put her hand on his arm. “It’s ok Fil, you don’t need to be so nervous,” she replied. “I actually love to sing in my spare time, my father was a performer so I think I inherited a bit from him,” she added as her thoughts turned to home for a moment. “But I’ve been meaning to get into shape again, perhaps you could show me one of your workouts some time?” she asked hopefully.

“Sure, We can work out together. It’s not too strenuous.” Fil sounded happy that he met someone who shared his hobby. ” But remember, you can call me Penji. Let me know when you want to work out with me.”

Lari smiled warmly and took another sip of coffee. “Well I’m free now Penji?” she offered with a raised eyebrow. “I could meet you in my workout gear in 30 minutes, unless you have somewhere else you need to be?” she added, downing the last sip of coffee from her mug.

“I’m free too Lari, give me 30 minutes and I’ll meet you at the gym.” Fil said with a note of confidence. Fil then left 2 forward and went to his room. Fil wondered what to wear to impress his friend Lari.

Lari grinned as she stood. “Great! I’ll see you shortly,” she replied, wiping her mouth with a napkin. As Fil left she watched him curiously. She still wasn’t sure what to make of him but she was looking forward to getting to know him better. As she left the lounge she thanked the waiter and headed to her quarters to change.

Ens. Fil arrived early at the gym. He started stretching a bit to warm up. “I hope I don’t do anything foolish in front of Lari.” Fil said as he waited for Lari to arrive, while he warmed up.

Having changed into 3 different workout outfits, Lari finally settled on a black tank top with a grey t-shirt over and a pair of black yoga pants. She was still a little nervous about what to expect as she didn’t really know Fil that well yet, for all she knew he could be super fit and hard to keep up with but then she wasn’t exactly out of shape herself. She quickly made her way to the gym, not wanting to be late. When she arrived she saw that Fil was already there and warming up. She took a mat next to him and smiled as she began to stretch as well. “You’re keen…” she chuckled as she stretched out her calf. “You will take it easy on me won’t you Penji? Just remember, I’m a girl!” she giggled.
