Author's Notes: I've been obsessing about Celine Dion's song "To Love You More" for a while even after I labeled it AL and Data's song. I really wanted to write out how it became so. The story started differently for a while before solidifying into what you're reading. Kinsellan flits are the property of Jessica Dragontamer.
Prologue
On the Enterprise-E, Data and a group of musicians were performing a concert in Ten-Forward. Lisa, as always, was sitting in the front row. Her Kinsellan flit, Rising Fog, as always, had elected to stay behind in their quarters since he disliked crowds.
She watched the android as his hands manipulated the bow and strings of the violin and smiled to herself. She knew that "his" playing was simply the imitation and combination of various styles, however, she looked beyond that. Since Data chose the violinists and they normally had different styles that he'd successfully blend, that made it Data's own style.
Plus she was in love with him, which biased her greatest of all.
Their piece finished, the audience applauded loudly and Data waited for the noise to die down before speaking.
"For the last performance of the evening, we are going to have what my colleagues call a 'change of pace'. However, that is only if Lisa can be persuaded to join us."
There was a collective murmur amongst the audience and Lisa simply said, "Huh?"
"We've heard you and Data playing together," said one of the musicians. "You're really good and we think the audience'll like it. It'd make a great finale."
"Yeah, but…" she began but was drowned out by the encouraging applause. Data reached behind the bar to pull her pan flute.
She hedged for a moments. True, she and Data would often play together a number from 20th century Earth Lisa had dubbed Their Song, but she'd never played in public.
Data gave her a hopeful smile and she shrugged. Why not? She took her flute stood beside him. He said to the audience, "I am told most romantic couples choose a song to symbolize their relationship. As most know – "
"Make that everyone on the ship," said Lisa, hugging Data to her and causing the audience to chuckle.
"Lisa and I have been engaged in a romantic relationship for the past two years. What we will be performing is…Our Song."
They took up their instruments and began to play. The audience listened raptly to the 400-year-old song as Lisa's breath played across the reeds of the flute. She nearly forgot she was in front of people until she heard the applause once they'd finished.
Afterward, people were still talking about the performance. As Data and Lisa milled about, many of them came up to her to say how impressed they were.
"I'd no idea you could play like that," said Deanna Troi.
"I didn't recognize the song, though," added Will Riker.
Lisa smiled. "I'm not surprised. It was very popular on Earth in the late twentieth century. It's called 'To Love You More' and it's by a woman named Celine Dion."
"How did you chose something like that as Your Song?" Geordi LaForge asked.
She laughed. "Well, remember the first time we did Sherlock Holmes on the holodeck and Data picked up the violin? That's what first put the idea in my head. Then, after that first concert…"

Trivia and In-Jokes: The bit about the first time they did Sherlock Holmes on the holodeck was in the Season 2 episode "Elementary, Dear Data". The first concert was in Season 3's episode "The Ensigns of Command".
