Disclaimer: I do not own Star Trek or Will or Deanna or crew evaluations or communicaters or doors or anything that you might be ready to sue me for because I own it which I don't.

So I wrote three stories last night! Yay for me! I wrote this Will/Deanna one, another Martha/Jack one, and a Katniss/Gale one. I'll publish them in a minute. I just thought I'd say that I'm aware I haven't published another chapter to Fairy Lights: Stories of the Yule Ballin like a week, but I'm working on it. Luna's gonna be next.

I will probably write a story or two tonight, but it will not be published until late tomorrow because I'm busy all day with 4H stuff and a discussion class thing.

Anyway, here it is!


Deanna Troi switched off the music that was playing in her quarters, straightened her uniform, and glanced at the clock. It was almost 3, or 15 hundred hours.

Just then, the door beeped. "Come in," she called, rushing to it. She smiled as the door slid open. "Hello, Will."

"Hello, Deanna," he said, laughing. "Ready for two hours of torture?"

"Oh, I don't think it will be that bad," Deanna said. She liked doing the crew evaluations. It was always so peaceful.

"Geordi says there might be somebody in engineering that needs to be removed from the Enterprise," Will told her. "A new lieutenant from the Academy."

"Oh, that must be Lieutenant Cardelo. She needs to be removed from the Enterprise. She came to me yesterday."

"Are you supposed to talk about your clients behind their backs?" Will asked jokingly, inserting the evaluations into the computer.

Deanna rolled her eyes but smiled slightly. "Oh, shut up. It's not like you're going to tell everybody on the Enterprise."

Will winked mischievously. "How do you know? Maybe I'm scheduling a public event in Ten Forward to reveal the information."

Deanna rolled her eyes again and said, "You can't be, because you've been here since you heard the information."

"What does that have to do with anything?" Will said rather lightly. "Let's move on."

"Will!"

"Deanna?"

Deanna grabbed his communicater and set it on a table.

"Is this thievery?" Will said seriously. "It seems like two crew members will be leaving the Enterprise."

Deanna laughed, and Will put on a extremely serious expression. "I'm not kidding, Counselor Troi."

He just managed to laugh before she threw herself on him, laughing uncontrollably.


Did you like it? I hope so. I'd say more, but we already know what I'd say (review it please and stuff) and my coffee is done in the microwave. So it's kind of important ;)
