Kelly walked over to the small kitchen area and lifted a lid to one of the pans simmering on the stove. “Hey, babe can I,” Kelly called out picking up a spoon before feeling a hand wrap around her waist and kissing her cheek.“Go make sure the table is set and just hang out there. Absolutely,” Ian nodded and pushed her out of the way finishing her question with one of his own. While Ian trusted Kelly with his life, he did not trust her with any culinary exploits.
“You know I can do more than just sit around drinking before Evrilla and Malcolm arrive,” Kelly let out a laugh taking a seat at the table and taking a drink of her beer.
“Yeah but should you? Should you really,” Ian teased his wife blowing her a kiss. He had to wrap up dinner. Malcolm and Evrilla would be here any minute and he did not want to be actively cooking when they arrived.
Kelly and Ian Bordeaux
Ronar stood outside the door that Evrilla had led him to. He was excited to meet the Captain and finally start his new life aboard the Atlantis but whatever thrill he was feeling was buried beneath many layers of nerves and (going even deeper) distrust. It had been a long time since he’d ever encountered a leader who stabbed him in the back but still, even years after the end of the Occupation, his hand still shook whenever in the presence of a superior officer who had his life in their hands.
‘Chill out, Ronar,’ he told himself, ‘Evrilla said the Captain is a fine woman. She’s nothing like the Cardassians… probably.’
“Well,” he said, taking a deep breath and pushing his hesitations out of his mind, “Here goes nothing!”
He pressed the buzzer to announce his presence and curtly marched through the door once he was given permission to enter.
“Captain Bordeaux!” He exclaimed, his arm shooting up to salute her, “It’s an honor to meet you.”
