Willow stirred the cup in her hand with a ferocity that it did not deserve. She continued a few moments staring out at the sea of stars before her and feeling like…well not that it mattered. She pressed her badge with a deep sigh of almost trepidation. What of he said no…

=^= Doctor Onuru. Pleaae report to my office.=^=

She continued to stir and hoped that this time the position would stick. If he said yes.

=^= On my way Captain =^= came the immediate answer and the chime wasn’t long in the coming.

After being let in, Arun walked in purposefully - somehow he always walked that way - with his hands clasped behind his back. He moved with an efficiancy usually only found in security trained officers, but in contrast to them he exuded a degree of calm and patience rarely found in those.
It probably had to do with his deeply dark eyes under those bushy blond eyebrows and the shape of his lips that made him look like he was always on the brink of a smile. Anisha had the very same set of lips.

He nodded to Willow and raised one eyebrow, but simply said “You wanted to see me?”

Willow nodded and waved at the chair in front of her desk. “Please sit down.”

• She’s giving of strange emotions. If this has to do with you it’s either very good or very bad. * Anisha pointed out needlessly and then quickly added

• Don’t you dare! * because she had yet again felt Arun’s strong curiosity and need to read the Captain’s thoughts. And yet again she kept him in check. It was ironic that of the two of them, she was better in following Starfleet protocol than he was… although nobody really knew that.

• Arun Onuru, incoming XO

Willow tilted her head slightly and considered the man before her. Immediately a small blocking attempt formed as Willow reigned herself in.

“Sorry.” She appologised and smiled. “I can understand the temptation, isn’t there an ancient Betazed saying that states “One who speaks one thing, and thinks another, is fighting a war inside” I assure you that I won’t be doing that and honestly this isn’t a negative meeting, I hope.”

She stood and walked to the replicator. “Can I offer you a drink?” She asked.

As a glass of peach ice tea materialised for her Willow considered Arun. “I’ll be blunt Commander. As you are no doubt aware our current XO has been called away suddenly leaving me in need to find an officer to replace her. I was hoping that you would be interested in the position.”

She sat on the edge of her desk and sipped her drink while she waited.
