Ria’s cheeks turned scarlet and she slightly ducked her head. “Yes,” she said just loud enough to be heard over the music. “We talked to the Captain earlier … to get permission … because … Starfleet regulations.” This was embarrassing! Why couldn’t she even form a simple sentence? What must the First Officer and Achilleas think?!

“Alright,” Dira said with a nod of her head. If Willow had already spoken to them, then she would likely hear about it relatively soon.

Now some years ago, maybe three or four, had passed since he had left Bajor. She had gone her way to follow her dreams to the stars and he had his own wandering heart. Neither had gone the same direction and paths had not crossed again. At 18, Bode had been a tall and lanky young man, not yet grown into manhood or his fabulously balanced symmetrical facial features. Just crossing the threshold of six feet in height, his frame seemed more suited for the flow of muscles across the barrel of his chest and arms. Even if she didn’t recognise the man he had grown into, the boyish grin remained the same. Bode pushed back a stray dark curl that had draped across his greenish blue eyes, smiling as he approached the trio. Leaning his knuckles onto the table between the CSO and XO he looked directly at Riani. “Well its a small universe. Is that you Ri?”

Bode from Bajor

It was in that moment of discomfort and embarassment, that Bode came to their table and greeted her. Raising her gaze, she looked at him in utter confusion. Clearly he seemed to know her, but right now she just couldn’t place his face at all.

Achilleas wasn’t sure who this person was. Their coming out of nowhere and barging in without a ‘by your leave’ honestly irked him a bit, especially when they ignored everybody else and started talking to Ria. Speaking of Ria, he looked and saw that she looked super uncomfortable and this upset him. He placed his hands on the table and pushed himself up into a standing position. “Excuse me but who are you?” He said to divert this person’s attention.

CSO Petrakos

Ria’s eyes wander back and forth between Achilleas and Bode a few times and at least once they also flickered towards Dira. She didn’t quite understand what was going on and was still trying to place the newcomer. She was starting to have an inkling that she indeed knew him. From Bajor? Probably. He was Bajoran after all. Or maybe from Deep Space Nine? That was just as likely. All the while she tried to figure out what to say. But she couldn’t seem to think of anything.

“Sorry. My mistake. I thought you were someone else,” the young Bajorian man said looking down. He turned and left the table and exited out of the lounge as silently as he had entered.

Bode from Bajor

Dira watched the man with curiosity as he left, her dark eyes all but boring a hole in his back. Then her attention shifted back to the pair. “Well that was interesting…” she said simply.

Commander Myqian, XO
