“This Saturday is the little league game. Such a sweet older couple. I bet they have all kinds of stories to tell. I am not too worried about Mr Borcheck, Bolians can eat anything, but I hope there is something the Misses can eat.” Yavia grinned, the couple had been so cute at the auction. “What about you? When will you be taking Mr Jones out?”

“The arts showcase is Thursday night,” Eela said with a soft smile. “Honestly, this week is so busy as it is that I kind of wish it was the following week but I guess in some ways it will be good to be out in public like that. Sort of get whatever anxieties I have left out of my system before the gala with the Vren. I sort of figure tomorrow night at the tavern I’ll be able to blend in more easily with the party, so there’s no pressure to be on, as it were.” Her smile deepened and anticipation twisted in her stomach. “And I know I’ll be navigating that evening with some extra variables I didn’t anticipate having, but I’m really looking forward to spending time with him, Yavia. It’s been so long since I’ve had this feeling and it’s… lovely.”

Yavia laughed, “There is never pressure to be ‘on’ with Klingons, unless that means ready to do battle in whatever form it comes in, from arm wrestling to drinking. I am looking forward to tomorrow. I’m very happy for Jal’na. She was a self proclaimed hermit and had every intention of staying that way. Until Shrine got ahold of her. That woman won’t tolerate anyone being lonely. Jal’na very much was when she came here. She is one of my dearest friends. And tomorrow is all about their traditions and customs. But most importantly, it’s about getting to celebrate Jal’na and her husband and the life they are forming together. And I for one intend to tell as many embarrassing tales about her as possible.” Yavia laughed loudly, worthy of any Klingon. “Assuming she doesn’t kill me first.”

Eela laughed. “I can’t wait to see what you get away with, and who is left standing by the end of the night too.”

She started pulling out plates and flatware, cups and drinks. “Ah anticipation is lovely, Eela. I think you will have a lovely time. And it will be just the distraction that you need before all the other happens. And I am certain whether one evening or more, Mr Jones will make sure you have a lovely evening. He’s quite taken with you.”

Warmth flooded her and Eela beamed. “Well, the feeling is quite mutual,” she said, stepping over to take the plates from Yavia and help set the table. “It’s funny actually, but he and Mathis and I have crossed paths with each other before at a conference for diplomats. But I never really got to know others very well from the Corps because I was always on the go. I was a Diplomat-at-large in a sense. I went where they needed me, for whatever sort of assignment needed covering, and during that time I got to know the other people on the team, if there were any, but other than that I was working more or less on my own. It’s rather interesting to get to actually have in depth conversations with people who are still immersed in that world and now be on the other side of it.”

“That and he is very attractive,” Eela said with a grin.
