"Andromeda, this is the Eureka Maru, please acknowledge." Beka's voice said over the communicator.
"This is Andromeda, Beka. Is there a problem?" The ship inquired having noted the stress in Beka's voice. In the background she could hear scuffling and what sounded like her Captains voice…singing?
Beka did not immediately reply. Andromeda heard scattered pieces of a seemingly one-sided conversation Beka was having with someone.
"Stop that. No, now quit it. Would you stop?" The next sound she heard was a muffled crash followed by a brief silence.
"Andromeda, have Trance standing by in medical." Beka replied. Almost as an afterthought she added, "Have Tyr meet us in the docking bay as well."
"What is wrong Beka? Where is Captain Hunt?"
"It's a long story Andromeda and I would rather only have to tell it once. We will be docking in ten minutes. Beka out."
Ten minutes later she and Dylan exited the Maru in Andromeda's docking bay. Tyr was waiting, as were Harper, Rev, and Rommie. Tyr stepped forward.
"What is the emergency? Why was I summoned here?" he asked.
"I thought it might be nice if you walked Dylan and I to the medical wing." Beka said trying very unsuccessfully to move away from Dylan. However, as if he were attached to her with glue, he followed only a step behind.
"And why, pray tell, should I do that?"
"Because we might not make it otherwise." Beka said trying to push Dylan away. He had wrapped his arms around her and laid his chin on top of her head.
"Just what exactly is going on with you two? And why didn't you tell us sooner?" Harper joked.
"I have no idea what is going on. All I know is Dylan was fine one minute and then the next he turns into freaking Romeo and starts swearing his eternal love for me. He has gone completely mad."
"You are just now realizing this?" Tyr asked dryly.
"Look, just get him off of me so I can walk and we can find out what the hell is going on."
She looked around at the others. All of them were trying hard to hide their grins but failing miserably. Starting to move forward once more, she almost tripped. Looking down she found Dylan staring up at her from where he was kneeling in front of her. As soon as he knew he had her attention he started singing… "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine"
"Now do you see why I needed you here?" She asked turning to look at Tyr.
His only response was to begin backing away. Holding out his hands as if to shield himself he said, "I want no part of this. What if he is contagious? I will not risk subjecting myself to anything of that nature." With those words he turned and left the docking bay. As he turned the corner he could still hear… "Please don't take my sunshine away."
Eventually the others were able to help Beka get Dylan to Medical. As soon as they entered Trance came running up to them.
"What's wrong? Are either of you hurt?" she asked looking them both over.
"Not yet." Beka muttered under her breath once again trying to move away from Dylan.
Out loud she said, "Trance something has happened to Dylan. He has gone completely mad."
As if to help prove her point Dylan started grinning like an idiot and saying, "Mad about you baby, I am mad about you."
"Okaaaaay," Trance said, "tell me everything that happened.
"Well there isn't much to tell. We had finished all the talks with the clans of Midrange and everything seemed normal. We followed the trail back to the Maru. After we had left the planet's atmosphere, I set autopilot for the rendezvous coordinates and Dylan and I decided to get something to eat. All of a sudden he grabs my hand and starts reciting love poems. Bad ones." She said with a grimace.
"Dylan, can you tell me what happened?" Trance asked.
"Sure. I fell in love with an angel. I just cannot believe it took me so long to tell her. But I swear Beka; I will tell you everyday from now on. Every hour, every minute." He said.
"Would you please shut up?" she yelled at him. Turning to the others who were laughing aloud she added, "And you can all keep your traps shut too."
Trying hard to control her laughter Trance said, "Dylan, I would like to run some tests on you just as a precaution."
"There's nothing wrong with me Trance. Nothing except a deep, passionate desire for my darling Beka and this annoying little itch from a bug bite." Dylan said.
"Bug bite?" Trance asked. "What kind of bug? Where is the bite?" she asked urgently coming forward to examine him.
"The bite is right here." He said pulling up his sleeve to reveal a small red welt. "And I don't know what kind of bug it was. It was just a little furry red one."
"Furry?" Trance asked in dread.
"Yep, furry red thing, kinda looked like a worm. 'Cept worms don't have teeth do they?"
"Trance, what is it? What is the matter?" Rommie asked. She had been relatively silent until now, concern for her Captain overriding the shock she was feeling at seeing him act this way. Shock and a little jealousy.
"Oh dear." Trance sighed. "I hate to be the one to tell you this but Dylan has been bitten by a love bug."
