“That is a horrible idea,” she said quickly. “Why would we want to work on a shore leave. I say if you expect to work then we just book a suite on the holodeck and stay here,” Ally said flustered. “The whole point of getting away is to get away. No medicine for me and no…policing or whatever you do,” she waved a hand. There was no way Ally was going to tell Rico about the incident on Orion. She would deny it until her grave. That meant no trips to Orion where they would flag her the second she got off the ship. “What about Vulcan? I have heard the desert sunsets are breathtaking. We could do that camping thing you talk about and there is not a drop or water anywhere around us so you dont have to worry about stingrays.”

Rico stayed silent a moment as he watched her, she was stubborn, determined, fiery, and persistent, all qualities for which he loved her but it appeared that when Allison was backed Into a corner slightly, her fight or flight instinct kicked more Into a “hey look over there, isnt that amazing” penchant for an attempt at misdirection. She wasn’t exactly lying, but it was obvious Allly wasn’t going to spill the beans. She enjoyed her coffee too much for that.

Reaching to his Monitor, Rico turned the screen around and looked at her with a slight smile but a raised eyebrow. “Ally, love of my life, cream in my coffee, hole In my donut. Would your aversion to an exotic holiday on Orion Prime have anything to do with this?” On the screen was the mugshot of Ally and local news reports of her arrest and subsequent Federation agreement to remove her from the planet.

“Where did you get that,” she said diving over the desk to cover the screen with her hands. It was a childish gesture and did nothing to stop Rico from knowing anything. There was no way he hadn’t read the report and reread the report. The half smirk told Ally he was slightly bemused at the revelation but there was that crease of wrinkles across his forehead and the semi-concerned glint in his eyes.

Letting her dive over the desk and cover the screen, Rico placed his elbow on the desk, his chin on his hand and waited. “Who would have thought that Allison Scott was a wanted woman on Orion Prime, the place where even the bad guys kicked her out?”

“Rico bad things happened there. I barely made it out. Thank god for my academy self-defense training,” she said wearing a serious expression. “I mean without it who knows where I would be.” Although her academy training never went beyond the required 101 classes, Ally’s tone indicated she was felt she was being serious.

Moving back to the chair she studied him. “You know I am not a fugitive right? I did my time and now I am on probation,” she looked at him completely sincere. Ally wasn’t sure exactly what was in the report so maybe it would be good to answer any questions. Looking at Rico, Allison Scott searched his face for any hint of nervousness. It was then she decided to put him at ease. “Okay so I know I am probably the first woman you ever dated with a record so if you need to think about things I can give you a day or so. If you can’t accept me and my…history,” she tried to choose her words carefully, “then I understand.”

That made Rico sit up straight and blink, twice as he processed what she said. “Whoa nelly” he said, reaching out and taking her hand, “Lets not release the bulls and try to dive for cover from things trying to boot us in the rear with their horns, Okey Harley Quinn? I never said anything about not wanting to be with you, but, an explanation would be nice” he said to her, then waggled his eyebrows and smirked.

“Rico this is serious,” she pulled her hand back and then broke out in a bit of laughter. “If it wasn’t for my keen sense of observation I could be some Dabo Girl on the Ferengi homeworld stroking ears and increasing the odds of the house in gambling.” Ally could not help but smile seeing how amusing Rico found this whole situation. She did have to admit however, it was rather funny. Her father didn’t find it that way but her brother, like Rico, could not help but come up with nicknames such as the Blonde Bandito, Ally the Embelzer, and Swindler Scott just to name a few. Drumming her fingernails on the side of the chair she concentrated on his face trying to be serious but his darn smirk made it hard to do so. “In fact, you should be rather appalled by my larceny antics.”

“In fact, you having a bit of a record and being not quite as innocent as you make it seem is kinda hot. I dated this girl just out of the Academy once, Ashley, a stunning red head. She did something dumb in her last year that got her a record, and a few tattoo’s, but your the first one I’ve dated that’s actually been exiled from somewhere.” He emphasized the word and motioned for her to sit down with him. “So whats the story? If we go back to Orion prime is it really that bad?”

“I know right,” she wholeheartedly agreed with him. “That is why I didn’t bring it up. I mean what guy wouldn’t freak knowing that if they were with a girl they couldn’t set foot on places like Vulcan, Earth, Risa, or Orion. Kinda limits vacation plans.”
