Mackenzie and Lita Janeway walked down the hall to their quarters talking as usual.

" Hey Kenzie are you going out with Landon tonight?"

" Of course Lita I think he may actually propose."

" Wow we won't be living together if he does."

" No, but just think you will have the place all to yourself."

Meanwhile in the Captains Ready Room

Captain Kathryn Janeway sat at her desk reading a security report when she heard the door chime.

" Come in."

Landon Paris walked in looking like he was going to faint.

" Aw Landon please come in, what can I do for you?"

" Permission to speak as your freely?"

" Permission granted."

" Well, it's about Mackenzie."

" Is there something wrong?"

" Oh no it's just...I want to marry her and propose to her tonight."

" Well I see."

" Before you say anything just know that I love her and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I know we are only twenty-one, but I love her."

" First I would like to thank you for coming and asking my permission and welcome to the family. Does the Commander know yet?"

" Oh thank you, and yes I spoke to him this morning."

Landon turned to leave when Kathryn stopped him.

" Oh and Landon."

" Yes"

" You and Kenzie can have tomorrow off."

" Thank you captain."

Mackenzie and Lita's quarters.

" Lita where is my pink heel's?"

" In my room why?"

" Because I need them for tonight."

" Ok I'll bring them in."

" Thanks"

Mackenzie heard her comm badge buzz.

" Captain to Mackenzie."

" Yes mom."

" Honey could you stop by my ready room before you go out with Landon?"

" Sure I will see you in a couple minutes. Mackenzie out."

Mackenzie pulled on a beautiful floor length pink gown with rhinestones and a pair of pink heel's, and walked out to the living room where Lita was reading a report.

" Kenzie you look beautiful."

" Do I?"

" Like a princess. Where are you going your date isn't for another half hour?"

" Mom needed to see me so I'm going to run to her ready room."

" Oh well have a good time I want to hear all the details."

" Don't I always tell you? Oh and don't wait up."

Mackenzie walked down the hall to her mom's ready room and rang the chime.

" Come in."

" Hey mom what did you need? "

" Oh, hi sweetie. I just wanted to know if Taya could stay with you and Lita on Monday?"

" Sure! Where are you and daddy going?"

" We have a late staff meeting, and I didn't want to have to wake Taya up and move her once she fell asleep."

" Oh ok well I would love to stay and chat, but I really need to go Landon has some special evening planned."

" Ok honey have fun!"

" Thanks mom I love you"

" Love you to."

HOLODECK 2

Mackenzie walked onto the holodeck to find a beautiful table set on the beach with a sunset and Landon standing by her chair.

" Hello darling."

" Landon this is wonderful."

" I hoped you would like it."

The two sat and ate dinner, and then decided to go for a walk on the beach. The two settled on a blanket under the star's.

" Landon this is amazing."

" I'm glad you like it."

" I love it and I love you."

" Mackenzie I have something I want to ask you."

" Sure darling anything. "

" You know I love you and your the best thing that ever happened to me." Landon got down on one knee and pulled out a box. " So it would be my honor to call you Mrs. Paris. Mackenzie Marie Janeway will you marry me?"

" Landon I don't know what to say. Of course I'll marry you. I love you."

" I love you to. Mrs. Paris."

" Hold it I'm not Mrs. Paris yet."

" You will be soon. What do you say you come to my quarters tonight."

" Sure. Why don't you go ahead and get it ready and I will stop off at my place. "

" Fine! I'll see you in a few."

"Bye Landon."

Mackenzie hit her comm. badge.

"Mom it's Mackenzie"

" Yes Kenzie dear."

" I'm engaged."

" Really?"

" Yes"

" Ok I want details tomorrow."

" Sure thing mom."

" Congratulations oh and don't worry about coming on shift tomorrow."

" Thanks Mom."

" What was that all about Kate?" Chakotay said as Kathryn slid into be side him.

" Oh nothing."

" Come on I know that look you only get that look when your... wait are you pregnant again?"

" No."

" So what is it?"

" Mackenzie just called and told me she was engaged."

" We knew about it though. He asked us this morning for our permission."

" I know it's just amazing thats all."

" What is amazing?"

" Think about it Lita and Mackenzie are all grown up, Mackenzie is getting married, and we have a beautiful four year old daughter sleeping in the next room."

" Your right. As Always" Chakotay gave her a lopsided grin almost a smirk as Kathryn snuggled up to him.

" I know"

" Goodnight Kath!"

" Goodnight Chakotay" The two sat and held each other.

Mackenzie and Lita's quarters.

Mackenzie walked in glowing to find Lita sitting on the couch.

" So how did it go?"

Mackenzie did nothing except flash the ring that she had just received.

" No way really?"

" Uh-huh" The two girls squled and jumped up and down.

" You have to tell me all about it."

" I will tomorrow right now I have to get changed and meet Landon."

" Again." Mackenzie walked into her bedroom "Yes" she said as she walked out in her robe.

" Have a nice time."

" I will oh don't wait up." Mackenzie said as she ran out the door.

Lita hit her comm. Badge " Lita to Mom"

" Yes dear."

" Did you hear about Mackenzie and Landon?"

" Yes! now all your father and I have to do is Marry you off."

" Mom! That hurt."

" I"m sorry honey you know I love you."

" yeah yeah goodnight mom."

" goodnight darling."

Tom and B'elanna's Quarters.

Tom and B'elanna were sitting on the couch looking over reports when the buzzer chimed to their quarters. " Come in" B'elanna said looking at Tom with a puzzled look. Landon walked in beaming.

" Landon what brings you here so late?" B'elanna asked.

" Well mom, dad I did it"

" What son?"

" Well dad I"m getting married."

B'elanna jumped up and hugged Landon " Congratulations honey. "

" Congratulations Son."

" Thanks is Mirial still here? Or is she back in her quarters "

" She's still here. Her quarters aren't done yet I'll go get her."

B'elanna walked to Miral's room and told her to come out into the living room.

" Whats up brother dear."

" Well, your going to have a sister in law."

" What?"

" I proposed to Mackenzie tonight and she said yes."

" Congratulations Bro." Mirial ran and gave him a big hug and then looked at him with a smirk.

" What?"

" I always thought I was going to be married first."

Everyone laughed.

" Hey guys I have to go, but I will see you tomorrow."

" Why don't you stay a while?"

" Because Mackenzie is coming over I love everybody."

" We love you to."

Landon left and ran to his quarters right before Mackenzie.

Landon's Quarters

Landon was sitting in his living room when he heard a knock at the door.

" Come in."

" Hi darling."

There stood Mackenzie in a pink satin negligee that just hit her knee.

" Isabella you changed ."

" Yes I did now come here."

" You don't have to tell me twice."

Landon walked up to Mackenzie and took her into his arms. She reached up and let her lips slightly brush his.

" Why don't we go into the bedroom and get more comfortable Mr. Paris."

" You read my mind."

The rest of the night was full of wild passion. The couple fell asleep in each other's arms.
