Just a happy little interlude to make the next chapter make more sense
The next couple chapters will definitely be much longer.
Enjoy and review!
Happy!

T'Pol had been helping Trip with Emily for over four months when he invited her for dinner.
"T'Pol," he had said the day before, "you always eat alone, you know that eating alone is bad for digestion. You should eat with me and Emmy tomorrow. I won't take no for an answer!"
She remembered saying, "Mr. Tucker, I don't like to eat with others, usually, but sense I have gotten to know you, I believe that eating with you and your daughter would be acceptable."
She remembers him grinning that big grin of his before rushing back to his room to prepare.
She arrived at the Captain's dining room (Jon had let Trip borrow it for the special occasion) at 1800 the next evening just as Trip was putting their food on the table.
"Be just a minute T'Pol, Em was being a little fussy."
She said nothing but just sat down at her seat.
The dinner itself was quite uneventful, almost awkward. But she had to help Trip back to his room because he drank and talked a little too much, fault of his vain attempts to loosen her up.
"Mr. Tucker, are you sure you'll be alright? You are quite intoxicated." T'Pol said.
"Naw, naw. I'm not insoshikated, Polly! I'm fine!" He shouted drunkenly.
She helped him open the door finding Hoshi cradling a sleeping Emily.
"Mr. Tucker, my name is not 'Polly'." She told him curtly, "Ms. Sato, please help me put him on his bed?"
Hoshi quickly complied, giggling at his semi-drunk antics.
Emmy started to cry reaching for her semi-drunken father.
"We better do what the baby says." Hoshi said, jokingly.
She put the baby next to her equally infant-like father.
"Bye, see you tomorrow T'Pol." Said Hoshi as she left the small room.
Trip lay asleep, Emily curled next to him. They looked so innocent. T'Pol couldn't' help but smile weakly at them.
She leaned down and kissed Emmy's head. The baby squirmed, before she snuggled closer to her father.
T'Pol looked next over to Trip, the man she was trying so hard not to love. She felt herself lean lower and plant a tender kiss on his lips. He didn't move when she stepped back and actually looked rather stiff, but as she stepped out the door she heard a single word uttered from his lips.
T'Pol.

A/N: HEE! KISS! That was a bold one on T'Pol! Also I've decided on the other couple (no it is not Malcolm and Hoshi! Re my review to get my opinion on that evil pair!), but I'm going to keep it a secret until the next chap.
Tell me what you think!
