The overview of the U.S.S. Enterprise had changed to the bridge, and zoomed to Captain Kirk's fingers –which were rapidly jotting down notes onto the ship's log.

"This is getting on my last nerve," growled Kirk pushing the ships log back into the Ensign Keira's hands.

"How many passes do we need to get past this check point!" exclaimed Kirk leaning his back into the chair.

"We have five more passes to go through before the on-board scanning." said Spock blinking back at Kirk –whose finger tapping was uneasy to look at.

"Fi-Five?!" coughed Kirk in disbelief. Kirk's own patience had drawn the line. His fingers curled around his chair's armrest with annoyance. A simple mission it was. As simple as it gets! The U.S.S. Enterprise was to transport a cargo of calming syrup to the colony of Phi II on the planet Tervanni for the needs of researching sleeping aids.

That was all that Kirk knew about his cargo. Directive would not specify the reason behind the syrup other than it was essential that Phi II was to receive the cargo as quickly as possible. Kirk knew his orders and he followed it thoroughly, but the countless passes and checkpoints had worn out his patience to a tiny string.

Sulu heaved as sigh as he restlessly pressed a crimson button, releasing Ensign Keira to Tervanni with the final two passes of the 5th and final checkpoint.

Kirk's face grew red with irritation. No longer could he take this madness. "Did I do something wrong to deserve this!" cried Kirk in his own mind. His thoughts were all clearly visible to the all-canny Spock –whose eyes had been following Kirk's annoying gestures, pouting, and long dragged moans and groans.

"AH!" " The Ensign passed through terminal three!" " Only two more terminals to go." exclaimed Spock with a robotic tone of glee passing through his lips. Spock's stare secretly peeked towards Kirk's expression.

"Nice try Spock." said Kirk giving Spock a smile.

"Content is very hard on manipulate." explained Spock with a stone cold expression on his face.

"Although the Ensign did pass terminal three." answered Spock reducing his idea of keep-Kirk-happy-plan.

"Right Spock, but tell me when she finishes the next two then I'll be happy." sighed Kirk.

A long beep sounded through the bridge.

Uhura immediately held her earpiece to her head.

"Captain." "The Ensign in ready to be received." "She has all the appropriate paper work to head through to the final on-board scanning!" replied the ever-present Uhura.

"Finally." sighed Kirk relieved that he no longer had to retrieve and receive passes.

"What's the Ensigns name Uhura?" asked Kirk swiveling his chair towards Uhura's direction.

Spock gave Uhura a raised eyebrow and a slight grin –meaning that Spock knew what was next.

Uhura's feminine intuition also sparked a keen smile from her cheeks. Her babe alert red flag flapped around wildly in the wind of Kirk's-macho-man skies.

"Uhura?" inquired Kirk slightly oblivious to Uhura and Spock's interchange of eye contact.

"Her name is Ensign Keira, Captain." smiled Uhura bashfully at Kirk.

Kirk's eyes were taken by surprise by Uhura's slightly uncomfortable gaze. His eyebrows burrowed a little as he switched his look from Uhura to Spock; a person less likely to glare at him in such a way.

"Spoc-" Kirk interrupted himself when he saw Spock raised pointed eyebrows and a slight grin peeking through his right cheek. Kirk immediately shook off their disturbing stares.

The bridge doors slid open.

"Captain!" "The papers I have them in my hand!" giggle Ensign Keira waving a red disc in her fingers.

"Thank you Ensign." "You deserve an up in ranking for that mission." smiled Kirk receiving the red disc in his palm.

"For that Captain?" "Yo-Your to amusing Captain." Said Ensign Keira gliding her finger along Kirk's skin, and curling back up into her hand.

Surprised for that small and sudden contact of skin; Kirk couldn't resist but to smile back at her with those debonair eyes of his.

And with a final gaze Ensign Keira disappeared through those red sliding doors, leaving Kirk with his pleasuring, yet surprising gift.
