"Gooooood morning Captain," he said grinning ear to ear.
Kathryn new exactly why her first officer was so happy. She grinned herself remembering the previous dinner in her quarters.
"Chakotay, I've reached a decision," she whispered.
"About what exactly?"
"About. . .us."
"Us?" He made sure not to let his hopes get to high.
"Yes. I've given this countless nights of thought. I've had a fierce headache all day, but I finally came to a conclusion."
His patience was wearing. "That conclusion would be what exactly?"
She grinned. "Protocols were not designed for life in the delta quadrant with an irresistable first officer."
He grinned as well, "I agree with that."
"So," she continued, "tomorrow night, same place, same time, we have a 'no holds barred' dinner."
Chakotay looked at her curiously, "A what?"
She laughed, leaned close to him, and whispered in his ear. "It's an old expression that basically means, anything goes."
"Tomorrow night it is," he whispered. Kathryn got the chills.
"Good morning Commander."
He took his seat next to her and stared straight ahead at the view screen, the smile not abandoning his face. Tom Paris took great notice at this and sent a message to Harry:
I think I'll be collecting my replicator rations tonight.
There were only 2 hours left in the shift and both the Captain and Commander were figity. Chakotay noticed that she had checked the time 17 times in the last 15 minutes. He thought now would be a good time to hand her the PADD he brought with him. He was very grateful with Tom for sharing some of his 21st century music selections with him the previous day. With a straight face he passed Kathryn the PADD and went back to staring straight at the view screen.
She was curious. Space had been, well, boring as of late and therefore this PADD Chakotay had handed her couldn't be a report. . .
She was smiling again, Harry noticed. He didn't think the Captain had ever smiled so much. Maybe Tom was going to get his replicator rations unless Harry made another bet. . .
Kathryn stood up, PADD in hand, "Cha-Commander, you have the bridge."
He grinned up at her, "Aye Captain."
In her ready room she finally read the PADD:
We got the afternoon
One mile to every inch of
And if you want love
Your body Is a wonderland
Something 'bout the way your hair falls in your face
you want love?
Your body Is a wonderland
Damn baby
Your body Is a wonderland
One thing I've left to do
Discover me
Discovering you
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
You frustrate me
I know you're mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland
She sighed and fell back on her couch.
At exactly 1900 hours Kathryn and Chakotay could be seen jubilantly heading toward the Captain's quarters.
Who won the rations?
Vorik did. B'Elanna questioned him about it a few days later. His response was, "After being knocked down by both the Captain and Commander I knew it was the logical conclusion."
