Sek: They are indeed, Captain Janeway, meet my wife T'Enya and our daughter T'Meni, T'Enya, T'Meni, this is Captain Kathryn Janeway of the USS Voyager, as well as a friend of the family.
T'Enya: It is nice to meet you Captain
Kathryn Janeway: You too, now if you excuse me I must go and mingle, it was nice to see you all, bye.
(Captain Janeway walks off. A few hours later Tom is once again standing in front of everyone)
Tom: Thank you everyone for coming tonight, I hope you've all enjoyed yourself and that I'll see you all again soon, goodnight.
(Everyone leaves. Fifteen minutes later Chakotay, Seven and Icheb walk into their house)
Chakotay: Well I don't know about you too, but I certainly had a good time.
Seven: As did I, it was a good evening
Icheb: I hope you don't mind, but I must go and regenerate, I feel that my energy reserves are low.
Chakotay: No, its fine, go on Icheb, Goodnight.
Seven: Yes, Goodnight.
(Icheb goes up the stairs)
Seven: I must rest also, excuse me
Chakotay: Wait Seven!
(He grabs her by the wrist to stop her from leaving)
Seven: Is there something I can do for you Chakotay.
Chakotay: You just called me Chakotay and not Commander.
Seven: Well, it is your name, is it not.
Chakotay: (smiles) Have I told you that I love you.
Seven: Not in my memory, no.
Chakotay: Well I should've, because I do, very much.
Seven: Thank you, I love you also
Chakotay: Good.
(They both smile, there is a pause and he kisses her)
Seven: What was that for?
Chakotay: It was a kiss, and I did it because that's what people in love do.
Seven: Then I would very much like to repeat the procedure
Chakotay: (smiles) Your wish is my command
(He kisses her again)
Seven: I do not wish to go further, I want to , as humans say, take it slow.
Chakotay: Ok, I wouldn't want to rush you into anything.
Seven: Thank you, Goodnight Chakotay
Chakotay: Goodnight Seven
(Seven goes to the garage and Chakotay upstairs)
