Disclaimer: I do not own Star Trek, or Deanna or Will or Wesley or Jean-Luc or Beverly or Ten Forward or anything else. In the story. I do own a few things...

This is the third of four stories I wrote last night! It's Star Trek, like my next one will be too, because I'm still a little sentimental about Star Trek! I mean sentimental about watching the whole show like two-one year ago... I wasn't alive when it came out. Not for a long time.

Anyway, here it is!


Deanna Troi half skipped into Ten Forward, her hair flying against her face. She spotted Will, and hurried up to him. "You ready?" she whispered, trying not to be hyper.

"Yup. He should be here soon," Will whispered back. "Beverly said he's coming by 16 hundred hours."

Just then, the door to Ten Forward opened and Wesley Crusher stepped in, still wearing his academy uniform.

"Surprise!" Deanna shouted with everybody else, laughing. She hurried up to Wesley with Will, Beverly following. "How's the Academy, Wesley?" Deanna asked. "You a top student?"

Will and Beverly laughed. "Completely," Wesley said. "Like I'm number one. Best at everything."

"Oh, I'm sure," Deanna said, smiling. "I'm top Counselor on the Enterprise, too. And it has absolutely nothing to do with me being the only Counselor."

Then there was more laughter and talking and hugging and joking. Deanna and Will were just heading to the refreshments when Captain Picard walked in.

"Wesley!" he said, coming in. Then, seeing the surprised looks from the crew, "Oh, the rest of the ship was coming, so I figured I'd come too. And it's been a long time, Ensign."

Wesley smiled. "Yeah, it has. But I'm going to be here for two months now!"

There was considerable cheering, and Captain Picard smiled. "Well, we'll be happy to have you on board, Wesley."

Deanna laughed. "Of course, Wes," she said jokingly. "That means you should never go back to the Academy because Captain Picard will miss you."

As Captain Picard and Deanna began to argue, Wesley and Will burst out laughing. "That's Deanna for you," Will said, winking.


Did you like it? I hope so! Yes, yes, yes! I do! I really do! I hope you Like TNG, because it is the best! I do! I really do!

Right, I'm a bit hyper... Anyway, moving on from that... As I said in my last A/N on my Katniss/Gale story, why does everybody rate everything T! I have literally not seen one K or K+ story in ages! It's like nobody even counts those as ratings...

Okay, that just bothers me... But anyway! Goodbye?
