Sarah POV


"Hey Sarah, wait up!"

Uhura caught up with me

"Have you written your mission report, yet?"

The brunet looked at me, smiling

"Yeah, I was just on my way to submit it."

"Great, could you take mine with you? I'm late for a date with Spock"

I rolled my eyes at her

"Of course you are"

She handed her report to me and grinned

"You're the best"

Then she rushed off.

It's really impressive how the two of them make it work...

I had arrived at the Captain's Quarters, knocked and waited.

"Come in"

I entered the room, heading directly towards the desk.

"Ah, Sarah. Can I help you with something?"

"Uhm no, Sir, I'm just here to submit the mission reports. Lieutenant Uhura didn't have the time to come by, so I took it with me."

"That was very nice of you. I hope you only wrote nice things in there?"

"I positively mentioned that you assigned me to the mission, this time. Sadly I ran out of nice things to say afterwards."

I looked him dead in the eyes, he lowered his head and swallowed.

"Thank you, Lieutenant Ombria, for your... honesty"

"Is there anything else, Captain?"

"Well since I guess I can't convince you of a drink with me..."

He paused for a second, waiting for a reaction, which he didn't get

"that would be all, thank you"

I turned around and left the Captain's quarters, headed for the engine room.

"So, how's she doing?"

"Purring like a cat" Scotty grinned at me.

"Good, I really don't want to get stuck in deep space."

"Why? Because Jim and you would have to talk things over?"

"First of all, theres nothing to be talked about and second of all that is nothing to be joked about"

"No, it really isn't... Knowing both of you you would probably go balistic and everybody would die in the crossfire"

"How dare you say something like that!"

I made a face at him

"How dare who say what?"

Sulu appeared behind me, Chekov next to him.

"I just said that if we were to get stuck in deep space the ship wouldn't be big enough for Jim and Sarah and we would all die in the crossfire"

"I can totally see that happening" Sulu was all smiles

"Oh great you're taking his side?"

I sticked my tongue out at Hikaru, then turned my head to Chekov

"What about you?" Narrowing my eyes I threatend him playfully

"I'm Switzerland!" he declared

"I hate you all" I threw my arms up in defeat

"No, you love us" Bones joined our group

"You four are the first to die, I hope you know that"

"Who's dying?" Uhura hugged me from behind.

"Nobody... yet" I growled with narrow eyes

"Okay, Tiger" Bones shot back

"But why me I didn't do anything?" Chekov looked sincerely sad

"Aw, come here, Switzerland" I hugged him, laughing

"Interestingly enough there are 136 dead soldiers burried on Swiss ground- none of them being Swiss"

Spock added to the conversation.

"I come bearing gifts" He held up a bag

"Ou did you find something good?" Scotty couldn't wait to get his hands on the alcohol

"Good is a very loose terme, considering how almost no two people find the same thing 'good'"

"Seriously, how can you handle dating a walking encyclopedia?!" I whispered to Uhura, she just giggled

"It's acutally very educational" she whispered back

"You pronounced tiring wrong" The brunet burst out laughing

Scotty had gotten his hands on the alcohol in the meantime, opening up a bottle of Whisky
