The shuttle flew up to the Enterprise and I sucked in a deep breath.
"Stunning ship isn't she?"
Uhura's voice echoed what I was thinking.
I nodded. We docked and Uhura and I walked off.
"My room is near yours Allora."
I grinned suddenly happy as all three of us walked through the ship.
She had already been broken in and yet she still shinned to me. I had seen the blue prints for the ship but not the finished result. Anna was silent as we walked.
We neared Uhura's room and she smiled.
"Your room is there and Kirk's further down."
She turned then laughed.
"Spock's is right there."
She pointed to a door two down from mine.
I fought off a blush and laughed feeling naughty.
"And McCoy's?"
She laughed with me
"On the other side of mine."
She walked into her room and I walked to mine.
When the door opened I whistled at the spacious room.
"So this is how the other half lives."
Anna looked at me confused. I laughed.
"Just let it go Anna I am being as Spock would say, illogical."
She looked at me oddly and helped me unpack. Afterwards, I sit down and sighed content. I was on an extraordinary ship, about to go where few had gone before. I felt strangely content. Not a feeling I was use to. I saw the time and jumped up. I dressed fast and hurried to the bridge. I got lost twice.
"Blasted big ship."
I hurried into the turbo lift and slammed into a warm frame.
"In a hurry Allora?"
A familiar laughing voice spoke. As warm arms held me steady
I looked up and laughed with McCoy. I winked at him and placed a warm kiss on his cheek.
"Sorry I was, well, lost, this ship is large."
He nodded.
"Tell me about it, My Med-Bay is huge."
We both grinned and the doors opened to the huge bridge. I faltered almost gawking at the size.
McCoy's deep voice rumbled in my ear.
"Better close that mouth before you catch a fly."
I elbowed him and he grunted.
I walked on to the bridge and Kirk turned to see me.
"Your late Lieutenant Commander Brighten."
I blushed hard.
"Me thinks someone is enjoying his rank of Captain too much and intends to have revenge."
He threw back his head and laughed.
"Would I do that?"
He tried looking innocent but his brilliant eyes were filled with a mischievous light.
I pretended to sigh with exasperated. I looked off to my side and saw Spock watching me. I cleared my throat and took my seat.
Kirk walked to the Captain's chair.
"Ensign Sulu parking brake off?"
The entire crew on the bridge burst out laughing.
At my confused look McCoy nudged me.
"I'll explain later."
I shrugged and once Sulu was done blushing he spoke.
"Yes, Captain."
"Then ahead warp one."
"Aye Captain warp one"
