Ch.2
"Attention crew of the U.S.S Enterprise, our ship regretfully has been decommissioned." said Kirk, his voice was firm, demanding, it was kind of...sexy. Instantly I shook my head clear of any thoughts. Murmers and protest started amongst the large group of people in front of us. "quiet please. We have all been reassigned to an experimental mission...2 crews, 1 ship." the mummers and protests got louder. Kirk began to continue but I cut him off.
"attention crew of the U.S.S Centerville. We will welcome the crew of the Enterprise with open arms. Enterprise, we are pleased to have you aboard our ship. I am your new co-captain...Susan Jones. We leave for the ship tomorrow at 0900 hours. Don't be late." with that, I ended the meeting. The crews of both ships stayed behind to mingle and get to know one another. I quickly met up with my first officer Commander Moore. We were going over flight schedules when we were interrupted.
"So are you gonna introduce me to your first officer?" the more I heard Kirks voice, the more annoying it gets. Why I slept with him...to be honest I'm not entirely sure. I guess my drunk self has a thing for egotistic men.
"Commander Moore, Captain Kirk, Captain Kirk, Commander Moore." Moore looked up from her PADD, her blonde hair swaying with the motion while she extended her hand. When she saw him, her green eyes lit up, her smile widened, and her pupils dilated, she was interested and Kirk knew it. He pulled her hand up to his lips planting a small kiss to it.
"Pleasure" he said looking her in the eyes. They stayed there for a few moments. He hadn't let her hand go yet. I cleared my throat.
"Commander your dismissed." I said roughly. I knew there was a small hint of jealousy in my words. At that point, I didn't care. Moore took my warning.
"Aye captain." she said directing her eyes back to the schedule in her hands as she walked away. I watched her until she was out of sight. I turned my attention to Jim.
"there will be no messing around with my crew members is that understood Jim?! I don't need them distracted by their broken hearts because of the infamous James Kirk. Keep it in your pants on my ship!" I said spitting venom into my words. Kirk looked at me amused.
"A little jealous are we?" he said wiggling his slender finger in my face.
"aww jealous of what? Your womanly hands?" I said with a pouty tone. A look of shame crossed over his face. He looked as if he was gonna respond but instead he cupped his hands around my face and kissed me. Kissed me in front of everyone. Part of me enjoyed it, the other part, the part that reacted, was angry. I pushed Kirk off of me and brought my hand across his face. To my surprise he wasn't angry, he smiled which sent an even bigger surge of anger through my body. Before I could react any further, I felt hands grab me and pull me away. "LET GO OF ME!" I said yanking my arm away. "State your name now officer!" I said. Turning to face the man. He was older than Jim, rugged looking. When he talked you could tell he was from somewhere in the south.
"Dr. McCoy ma'am. Senior medical officer from the U.S.S Enterprise. Sometimes I feel like I'm Jims goddamn babysitter having to clean up his damn messes all the time." he said throwing his hands up clearly irritated with Kirks behaviors. He looked me in the eyes and His face softened a bit. "Sorry if I startled ya Captain, that look on your face is something I get everytime Jim talks let alone irritates me." I started to laugh he sounded like he had a lot of experience.
"well thank you doctor. Your dismissed." I said giving him a slight nod.
"if I may Captain, don't let Jim get to ya. Ya get used to him after a while." he said. He flashed me a quick smile before leaving to report to medical bay. I watched him for a moment before taking a deep breath and walking back to my room before my long day tomorrow.
