Cmdr Salen had thought it was a good idea. Dradvia had thought about lying, saying that since they were close to Oed, she wanted to talk to Lt. McKenzie, but Salen could read her mind. And Tealor wouldn’t let her lie. Salen agreed it was a good idea to visit them. Dradvia hadn’t wanted to talk to the answering service again, so she sent a text message letting Elias know when she would be there. She didn’t know where Elias and his daughter lived. She didn’t know how to navigate Oed or manage on her own. She didn’t ask him to meet her, though. Dradvia wanted to ask, but she was too used to knowing better than to ask for things. It was a hard habit to break. For work, for her patients, she was learning to do it again, but for herself? She hadn’t learned yet.

Vashkilu, New Arrival

Eli was standing outside the starfleet building, across the courtyard watching the front doors. He had gotten the message, but had no intentions of walking into a Starfleet building if he did not have too. He did not have any open cases with starfleet that he was aware of, but there could be some he was not aware of, and that was not worth the risk.

Dradvia had thought about going through the Oed orbital platform, through the CCDA security, but she felt safer coming through Star Fleet. She knew Elias hated Star Fleet, which was the main reason she hadn’t asked him to meet her. She took the time to change out of her uniform before she left the building. Dradvia wore relaxed jeans, a super soft pullover shirt, and then a jacket that was a bit too big. It sort of hid her. She had brushed her hair oddly to hide her jirisa from staring eyes. She was hurting, but she thought it was more from fear than anything else. She was afraid to step outside, but the prospect of getting to see Elias again kept her feet moving.

Dradvia stepped through the door and then the decorative gate that marked the entrance tot he Fleet compound. It was as horrible as she thought it would be. Immediately some man that towered over her was in her space. Commenting on her being new to Oed, he’d love to show her around, and it could be rough, and no place for anyone to go around alone. Dradvia stumbled away a few steps unable to catch her breath. It was okay; he was Star Fleet, and he was still in uniform. He wouldn’t hurt her. She tried to convince herself of that, but wasn’t it someone disguised as an officer who took her back to Mas… to Lokhar? She needed to find somewhere to sit alone so she could call Elias.

Eli watched as the man approached her, he decided pumling hte man for making her uncomfortable would only spoil his time with her. “Dradvia!” he called out, The giant of a man stood in his typical cargo pants and white tank top, his tatto clear for all to see. It was clear he was Maquie for anyone that knew, and for the starfleet camera’s well there was not way to avoid it. The fist time his face hit a camera on OED he was likely flagged, His last records though indicated he was a war hero, he had not been caught doing anything against the federation or their alies, though he had.

The days of judging others for being part of the Maquie were mostly gone. Too many things had happened since then. It was a tough time for everyone. There were some holdouts of course, but there were other problems to focus on. Eli hadn’t been flagged other than to identify who he was.

Dradvia heard her name called and her eyes flew with anxiety to find the source before the voice registered. “Elias!” He watched her whole posture relax, the shadow in her eyes disappear. He was here, he came to meet her. She smiled at him and skirted around the other man and fought the urge to run towards him.

Eli was very gracefull in his movements, his agility clear and odd for someone whith his build. He moved quickly and before she knew it, she was in his arms and two feet off the ground. “I missed you Dove” he said. “I missed you alot,” he said hugging her tight to his chest. Vash had been scolding him earlier for not telling Dradiva how he felt, how she was scared and not a mind reader. Eli was worried that he would hurt her in some way that somehow she did not want him. Vash called him an idiot and left for the night club.

The officer watched and realizing he was outclassed turned and left.

Dradvia gasped as he engulfed her. There was no panic though. She hid her face into his neck, her arms wrapped around him by pure instinct. She took a deep breath, getting a lungful of his cologne, soap, and something purely Eli. She felt her heart settle into a more easy rhythm and her anxiety and fear drain out of her. Dove. He’d missed her? “I’ve missed you so much, Elias.” Tears made her voice tight. She shouldn’t, she knew that, but she’d missed him anyway.

Her head and breath in his neck was euphoric and lit his heart up like a beacon, his pulse began to race. It was all to much for him, “What would you like to do while you are here, if you think of it, OED problably has it ” he said setting her down, and taking her hand in his.

Dradvia felt chilly now that his arms weren’t around her.Her fingers twined with his and held on a little too tight as she looked around the very busy street and massive city. She hadn’t paid much attention when she was here before. “Umm, I… I don’t know.” She remembered a conversation she’d had with Dr. Tessan once. “Dr. Tessan asked me once where I would go on Vacation. I didn’t know then either, he told me to think about it, but I still…” She gave that self-conscious shrug, “I told him Betazed because Kryssa,” her voice caught on the name and caught her breath. “She always wanted to go,” she finished on a whisper after a moment.

Eli looked down at her, “Who is Kryssa, you never mentioned her before” he asked he had heard the momentary pause but she seemed important, and Eli wanted to know everything about her. He moved toward a small park that would be a little quieter, the crowds were likely getting to her.
