With a padd in the hand and checking on the latest supply and repairs status, Don made his way to his office, but then made an about turn, tapping his badge. =^=Killian to Patil, please respond =^=, he said. Since the Kzinti invasion they had not spent any time together and he missed her company, although this was not a social call...
Tika sat in her office glancing over the mountains of work. She had to make sure the entire ship stayed organized in this crisis which was far from an easy task. When her commbadge rang, she assumed it was more work. "Phoenix-Patil..go ahead."
=^= Do you have a few minutes? I would like to see you....=^= he said, grinning at the double meaning where she was concerned, even if he didn't exactly mean it. Well.... maybe he did....
She smiled the devilish smile she used in situations such as this. She would normally say yes and meet him wherever he wanted to go, but she couldn't ignore her piling workload. "Just a few minutes...come to my office..."
By that time he was not far from her office and stretched his last few strides and pressed the chime. When she opened he stood there with a dry grin. "I am here...." he said, his grin widening. he turned to watch to see it swish closed and once it did he sat down openly admiring her. "I missed you..."
Tika stood, straightening her skirt and walking around her desk. "I've missed you too, but as you can see....." She said gesturing toward the stacks of PADDs on her desk. "Time hasn't been something I posses in abundance."
Unable to think straight, in one motion he got up and pulled her towards him, mumbling *I know* before he closed her mouth with his, kissing her thoroughly.
Tika braces herself against her desk, knocking several stacks of PADDs over in the process and she leaned in, putting her hands around his head passionately. "You did miss me.." She said as she pulled out of the kiss.
He answered by lowering his mouth to hers again passionately. What happened next was a hasty, near rough removing of essential clothing. Somewhere in between, Don have the doors sealed. "Yes..." he answered her breathlessly.
It was a while later that Don pulled buttoned up his jacket and pulled it straight, while he watched her. "Anything else I can help you with?" he asked with a mishchevious grin.
Tika smiled as she pulled her uniform skirt back up around her yellow tunic. "I could go for diner..and after that, maybe a little desert." She said, her grin widening.
"Pity that you have to do that....." Don said motioning her getting dressed, his grin matching hers. "Of course, I could skip dinner altogether and live on desert, ya know..." Don teased, placing his hands on her upper arms. "Your quiarters or mine?" he asked, wishing they didn't each have so much work.
She had actually been pretty hungry and decided that skipping dinner wasn't a good idea. She was a little lightheaded. "Or....we could have dinner in the lounge...and desert on the holodeck.."
"Sounds even better...." he said, letting the door open to let them out, adjusting some hair at the back of her head just before they were in the passage, his hands dropped back to their usual place clasped behind his back just in time, before they started to make their way to the lounge for the entree..... and dessert later
