Disclaimer: If I have a hundred and thirty two chapters (I'm not being
literal here) does that mean I have to tell you that all the characters
belong to paramount and yada yada yada.
Author's Note: Hey Hey Hey, okay, perhaps I'm a little over enthusiastic
and I have reason not to be... no one is reviewing. Does that mean no one's
reading or people are reading, but they don't like it, or do they love it,
but chose not to say so??? I almost died of curiosity.. please, don't do it
again. Oh and as unbelievable as it may be, this is an all out plan to get
the together. I think it's time some dire measures were taken.

"Muuuuuuuuuuuuum," yelled Shannon as she stomped into the living room, "Uncle Chakotay's here."
"Alright, alright, I'm done."
Shannon watched completely stunned when her mother appeared in front of her, wearing a sun dress and a big floppy hat with pearl earrings. She had picked out her mother's outfit and if that didn't make Chakotay melt into a puddle, the rest of the night would.
Late last night, she, B'Elanna, Naomi, Tom and Harry Kim had stayed up watching cheesy love stories until they decided the best setting for their plan would be New York. Lot's of romantic stories had happened there, including Shannon's favourite, Sleepless in Seattle.
Tonight's walk in the park and dinner was a mix of both. At first, Shannon hadn't wanted to go along, but Tom had insisted that she go to make sure everything went according to plan. Molly had even been trained to play her part.
"Come in," said Kathryn, looking around.
"He's not here yet, he just left his quarters.. He should be here... around now," she said as the doorbell rang, "I checked," she answered to her mother's raised eyebrow.
"Come in," invited Kathryn, and Chakotay walked in, he was dressed smartly in a tux.
"Why are you wearing a sundress?" asked Chakotay.
"Shannon said it looked nice"
Nice is an understatement, thought Chakotay, as escorted her out of her quarters.
Jeez, thought Shannon, holding on to Molly's leash, following them out, one look at her and vice versa and suddenly, it's Shannon who???
"Paris to Crewman Janeway."
"Janeway here, plan A is in action."
As they entered the Holodeck, Shannon was rather pleased with her work. The door opened to a walkway in the park, which led to a small restaurant.
"Nice place," said Chakotay to Kathryn.
"Yes," she agreed.
Shannon rolled her eyes, time to put the next part of her plan into action. She pressed a few buttons on the padd she had brought along, immediately, a violinist appeared.
"A dance for the Mr and the Missus?"
"Whose programme is this?" Kathryn turned to ask Shannon.
Shannon shrugged and played the dumb little girl look she usually used with her mother, "Tom's, he asked me to play it today."
"Shall we dance?" Chakotay asked Shannon.
Shannon groaned, things weren't working the way they were supposed to, "Alright, but Mum'll feel left out."
"I'll dance with her then," he said. He seemed glad to Shannon thought. Perhaps a little too glad.
She watched as Kathryn smiled shyly before placing her gloved hand in his. Shannon sighed romantically, it was better than any movie.
After two dances, they proceeded to the restaurant, "Coming in?" her mother asked her.
"No," smiled Shannon, there's a McDonald's just down the road, "Call me when you're done."
With that she skipped off, "Come Molly, I programmed it so I can eat and not gain weight at all, besides, I hear they give free food to dogs, courtesy of Tom Paris of course."
"Woof," :replied Molly.
It was an hour later when Kathryn and Chakotay had done and Shannon had enough hamburgers to last her a month. Oh, and she had met a rather cute waiter at McD's... of course, he was holographic though.
"Enjoy your dinner?" Shannon asked when she met up with her Mother and Chakotay.
She was pleased to note that her mother looked flushed and was blushed. The waiters had obviously done a good job on telling them what a cute couple they were.
The rest of the night, she made sure they did lots of things together. For example at a theme park, she sent them down the tunnel of love, only they didn't know it was the tunnel of love when they got it. Shannon and Molly, who were in the back seat, kept saying stuff like gross and ewww, and how she would kill Tom Paris. She even made some of the other holographic love birds fall for her trick. She hoped her mother was convinced.
Finally outside the Janeway Quarters, Shannon allowed Molly to be the star for the moment. She watched as Molly ran around the couple's legs, pulling them closer together until they were forced to kiss. Shannon's eyes opened wide, as she watched them deepen the kiss.
When they were done, Chakotay kissed Kathryn's fore head and walked to his quarters. Shannon stared her mouth wide open before running to the Paris' quarter's where she knew its inhabitants as well as Naomi and Harry would be waiting.
"Did you see that?" she asked, knowing Tom Paris has placed cameras outside the Captain's Quarters to view what would happen.
"We did," grinned B'Elanna. "Wow."
"I'm too young to see that stuff," joked Naomi. Shannon grinned at her, "So am I."
She had to admit, Naomi was getting even more fun by the day perhaps she should give her a second chance.
"You know what I think?" asked Shannon, "I think they were way too cool about that. Something's going on that we don't know about."
"I agree."
"Here's what we know," Shannon started.
"They deepened their kiss and then he kissed her on the forehead before walking away as if nothing had happened."
"That only means one thing," Harry said.
"But I would have known if something was going on before this."
"Maybe, they're just fooling us, making us think stuff, messing with us," suggested B'Elanna.
"You know what I think?" asked Tom.
"What?" everyone else chorused.
"It's time we switched to good ol' spy movies."
